Overview
Summary
Sharing the same design as its predecessor, the XPS 9310 is thin and light, and its 16:10 FHD+ or UHD+ display is covered by the latest Corning Gorilla Glass 6 for durability. The 4-sided InfinityEdge display delivers a 91.5% screen-to-body ratio. With Tiger Lake, it remains one of the best laptops you can buy. It has been put in the shade recently by Apple's latest M1 machines, which offer faster performance and superior battery life for less money. But if you need to run Windows, the new Dell Xps 13 is a superb laptop on which to do so.

The Dell XPS 13 is one of the best laptops on the market. Paired with 16GB of RAM, the laptop's 2.8-GHz Intel Core i7-1165G7 processor put on a solid show. The arrival of Tiger Lake also heralds the arrival of Intel's new integrated graphics chip, Intel Iris Xe.

The Dell XPS 13 has undergone a number of small tweaks, including a smaller frame, thinner bezels all around, and a bigger keyboard and touchpad.

The Dell XPS 13 OLED is the best 13-inch laptop for those who want the best screen quality in a compact, premium chassis. Upgrading to an OLED panel from the base FHD+ non-touch option costs an extra $400, matching the cost of the full 4K IPS option. At 11.6 x 7.8 x 0.6 inches and 2.8 pounds, it can be easily slipped into a backpack.

Reviewers from notebookcheck have found the following[***]:
When stressed with Prime95, the system would boost to the 3.9 GHz to 4.3 GHz range for just a few seconds until hitting a core temperature of 101 C. Thereafter, clock rates would steadily fall until they begin cycling indefinitely between 2.1 GHz to 3 GHz and 63 C to 81 C. Power consumption is generally higher than other Core i7 Ultrabooks powered by integrated graphics when 3DMark 06 is run.

Reviewers from notebookcheck have found the following[***]:
All XPS 13 9300/9310 SKUs top out at 100 percent sRGB coverage with no options for full AdobeRGB or DCI-P3 unlike on the XPS 15 series. Intel Killer AX1650s comes standard once again for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity. Running on battery power will impact graphics performance more than CPU performance.

OLED isn't the be all end all technology when it comes to displays. It certainly has its advantages over IPS, but its list of disadvantages are arguably just as important. It takes more power to run the OLED display at brighter settings and brighter colors than on an IPS panel. Battery life is noticeably shorter than on the XPS 13 4K IPS SKU.

The Dell XPS 13 is one of the first ultraportable laptops to come with Intel's latest 11th Generation "Tiger Lake" CPUs. This 2.8-pound laptop also has an exceptional 13.4-inch display and a gorgeous chassis. It's available in three versions, all of which feature an unusual 16:10 aspect ratio.

Dell's latest XPS 13 is the only one to offer an ultra-colorful, ultra-high-contrast OLED screen. The panel subtracts some battery life, but it makes an already gorgeous ultraportable even more pleasing. Like the Razer Book 13's, its screen measures 13.4 inches diagonally to the 13.3 inches of the Apple MacBook Air M1.

The Dell XPS 13 9310 was launched in May of 2021, starting at $949.99 / £849 direct from Dell. The OLED display version, with a 13.4-inch 3.5k (3456x2160) OLED starts from $1,599 / £1,549. This is $50 / £50 more than the 4K display option. The screen is quite bright: I measured a peak brightness of 343 candelas per square meter (cd/m2) All of the 11th gen Intel processors also include updated Intel Xe graphics.

Reviewers from techadvisor have found the following[***]:
Dell offers Full HD and 4K Ultra HD variants of the XPS 13 3910. Both versions promise 500 nits of maximum brightness, full coverage of the sRGB colour space, and 90% of the DCI P3 space. The processor on the model I tested is an 11th-gen Intel Core i7-1165G7. 3840 x 2400 pixels crammed into a 13.4in display gives you a whopping pixels-per-inch count of 338ppi.

Dell has finally released an OLED version of its XPS 13, and I'm typing this review on it right now. The OLED configuration costs exactly the same as an identically specced non-OLED 4K model ($1,699.99) The downside, of course, is that there is some battery life impact.

The new Dell XPS 13 is available now and starts at $899 (a sale price from the "normal" $1,059 price) The 13.4-inch 1920 x 1200 display looks as gorgeous as ever, thanks to Dell's latest InfinityEdge design. Dell's laptop doesn't quite measure up to the 5,896 we saw from Apple's new M1 chip on the latest MacBook Air.

Reviewers from tomsguide have found the following[***]:
The Dell XPS 13 is one of our top picks for the best Windows laptop you can buy. You can expect to pay a couple hundred bucks extra for the privilege of an OLED screen. OLED displays are known for delivering vibrant colors and deep, rich blacks. At 11.64 x 7.82 x 0.58 inches and 2.8 pounds, it weighs as much as a MacBook Air with M1.
