Dell XPS 13 (7390) Review | The Most Powerful 13 Inch Laptop, Ever

[@alexmurphy5289]

I just bought this without the 4k (I don't game on my pc, I have a ps4) for music recording / production with the 6 core 16 GB ram for $1130 on dells site. Yes it's not 4k, but that power and for my using of it it's a great deal

[@akademikz23]

What processor though?

[@rajats497]

In short, my take away is that XPS 13 2-in-1 seems better right now. It has a better battery life with FHD display and Iris Pro graphics. 4K on 13-inch may make sense to content creators. But for a business user, I am happy with the 13-inch FHD display.

[@cresperion]

Battery life of the 7390 2-in-1 with FHD is about the same as the standard 7390 with 4K. However, the standard 7390 with FHD gives you another 5 hours of battery life, making it last much longer than the 7390 2-in-1 (see notebookcheck).

[@AaronSkone]

I really wanna know where everyone on the internet keeps hearing that the 6-core is only available with the 4k display because you can absolutely customize your laptop on dell’s website to have the FHD display with the 6-core. Better batter life and a lot cheaper, I promise you don’t need the 4k unless you’re a 4k video editor.

[@curiousgeorge6921]

Why is this better than latitude 7300 ?

[@marcfavell]

At 2600 why would you not upgrade to the 4k screen though just asking because I just ordered dell xps 13 7390 i7 10th generation 1tb 32gb of ram 4k screen and 3 years accidental insurance for $3300 Canadian will I be happy or is this computer a rip-off?? I just want the best 2 in 1 out there

[@AaronSkone]

@Marc Favell you’ll get your money’s worth, it’s just that the 4k display will drain your battery much faster than the FHD screen

[@marcfavell]

@@AaronSkone yeah that's what I been hearing, heard battery is still good like 8-10 hours of video no?

[@marcfavell]

It's not really a problem I am always around power and want the extra eye candy 😂

[@mahireddy001]

Purchased Dell XPS 13 7390 12 months back but after 1 year of purchase getting lot of issues.... I Personally don't recommend if you are a regular user, its not that efficient for software developers. have keyboard, head phones issue and also get lot of sound from the Laptop and due to this get disturbance while on call

[@allanstrand638]

Must be a friday ex ?!?

[@raghavkaushal7561]

Dave 2D says the opposite He says that there are still heat related issues prevalent

[@blueoutrider]

I see it now

[@elenchus]

it's a very specialized computer. For people that do a lot of bursty tasks and require maximum speed, this is a great choice. But under sustained loads, it has to throttle back substantially. Because it's still using UHD graphics though, it's a very unbalanced CPU compared to the current wave of Ice Lake and Ryzen CPUs which have competent integrated graphics.

[@XJLCA]

D2D the faux expert? Nah!

[@krzysiekzmora1422]

Bought mine last week. 4k screen ok now why nobody says that screen time response is awfull? Even when u watching some netflix movies with fast scenario u will notice blurr.seriously it doesmt look good :/

[@gsoulavy]

Only with 8GB RAM in the U.K. and the whole EU with this CPU, so be careful, when you select this option. You can get 16GB with 4 cores.

[@bluebull399]

I went for 16GB with 4 cores, whilst it would be nice to have 6 cores 8GB isn't enough, even tabbed browsing can eat up all that. I still think 32GB should have been an option. Considering how much we have paid for these laptops its not unreasonable to want them to be future proofed for the next 5 years.

[@curt8806]

Shame on you. This video was pure hearsay when it comes to claiming any numbers. Your editors at @Digital Trends are awful.

[@kjczashiba4830]

For some reason there are no 16gb ram option for 6-core version, and the ram is still DDR3. Time to wait for next year

[@Duckstalker1340]

Cannon Lake unfortunately still doesn't support LPDDR4 while Ice Lake does.

[@kyrujames]

Not true just ordered a 16gb XPS 13 7390. The dell ordering system is absolute trash and you have to fuck with the options. (*i order using premier not the dell front store*)

Wow! Another great video with great insight. Similar to the other DIGITAL TRENDS videos, this video will also help everyone to get the trusted information about this laptop model. Simple and clearly explained. Yet again we would like to emphasize that even though our focus and delivery are little bit different, we are definitely inspired by DIGITAL TRENDS. Keep up the good work with similar insightful videos!

[@ibrahimadeosun6146]

14 inch laptop should be given more emphasis on. Razer is able to put a gtx1650 max q in a 13 inch laptop. Don't you think a 14 inch laptop with this 6core 10th gen comet lake CPU and rtx 2060 max q would make so much sense

[@naveed_niazi]

From the reviews of razer blade 13 it might be able to handle 6 core commet lake processor

[@JonathanGS]

2060? I think that’s too much heat. 1660ti would be perfect. But, I do like ambition so...

[@fellar031]

sounds like msi prestige 14 with gtx 1650 unfortunately

[@ibrahimadeosun6146]

@@fellar031 YAH but there is a difference. MSI don't have the best looking or best build quality and I am sure you can put an rtx 2060max q and 6 six-core comet lake or 4 core ice lake in a chassis that size with a big enough battery

[@lmeko9787]

only sometimes which is better

[@SicSemperBeats]

although I refuse to pay over $1500 for a laptop without discrete graphics, this looks great, if they could somehow fit iris pro graphics in here that would make for a even better 13 inch semi workstation. this is promising, the next generation of this processor/xps13 combo will be a beast indeed.

[@BudgetGamerz]

This review feels Verge-ish

[@iang2490]

Very very insightful

[@alfaromeo2842]

The 7390 is garbage. Heatsink is way too thin, fan does not kick on literally until the cpu reaches 95Cecius, no option in the bios to keep fan always on. Avoid Dell like the plague. At least HP has better thermals and gives you the option to keep the fan always on even on consumer model laptops

[@badmf7974]

I guess the XPS 15 is still a better option for a laptop with more power? Do you know if there will be any XPS 15 update any soon? I was thinking about buying the XPS 15 with the 4k oled screen, the i7 and 16gb of ram one, maybe I'll get it for the Black Friday if there are any special offer, but I'd wait if there was a new better improved model around the corner. Or maybe there is any other better +15' screen options from other laptop brands for the same, similar or better price? I really don't know much about laptops tbh, just need a new better one that the five years old one I have now. 😅

[@JonathanGS]

Really good deal for the xps 15 u were talking about for Black Friday!!! I think it was $1650 US dollars

[@nathang83]

I'm planning to buy this for university, studying Comp Sci. Will be primarily doing programming etc. What other laptops are on the same level?

[@FrontierKuen]

Go for MSI Prestige 14. 6 core CPU and just a bit bigger than this laptop, but you get a 1650 max Q GPU inside. Check out the review. Should have better thermal and much better GPU performance.

[@borisbachev4923]

If you don’t want to game on it I can’t think of a better option than the developer edition of this xps 13 for 1150 $ you can get the i7 16 GB ram model.

[@snake1625b]

What's the point of having a powerful cpu without a gpu, like what use cases?

[@yatsuk]

Good for programmers. Usually, any IDE has to index a lot of libraries. And the same if you have a local DB etc.

[@mobiledev6037]

Gradle (Android Studio) build will benefit a lot from a faster CPU usually when building larger projects.

[@bluebull399]

Having a fast CPU really helps makes office tasks more enjoyable. There's nothing worse than having a slow desktop. Most office workers are switching between apps, have multiple browsers open. Modern integrated graphics are fast enough for rendering 2D desktop apps and watching 4K video. Unless you are gaming, video rendering or working with 3D then integrated GPU's are fine.

[@leaningtower73]

A powerful cpu helps a lot for coding, multitasking with lots of browser tabs and switching apps, music production with cpu hungry synths and plugins

DELL XPS 13 7390 2 in 1, is the worst laptop ever, it’s completely unreliable! I spent countless hours troubleshooting many problems, Windows 10 is completely broken on this laptop. I still can't reliably transfer files to and from my external HDD's, speed goes very often to 0 B/s for 10s and then resumes for 2s and so on. It's very loud laptop. It wakes up and heats up really hard on closed lid, no update fixed it yet. Most of the problems are maybe because of Windows and I can't switch to linux, because it is not supported... I can't reach any English support from Japan, ffs!!! I just switched to MacBook Pro which is amazing, it just works great and I spent a day to learn it! Now I need to get rid of this crap!

Yours looks like a hot pile od garbage compared to XPS, Has H-series procesor with 35W TDP and discrete GPU adding more power consumption. I wonder how thick screen bezzels u've got there. So lets summ this up. You bought laptop with whole another goal. This ultrabook is focused on battery life and portability at 1.3kg. the ips screen is great

[@yancgc5098]

Shaazami It’s fine that this Dell laptop has a different goal from mine, but the specs inside of it are nowhere near worth the $1,700 price that it’s being sold for. Having no discrete GPU means it should have a way lower price. Just because it has a 4K screen, doesn’t mean it should cost $800 more than my laptop, that’s absurd.
