I keep hearing that the new 2 in 1 has an ice lake chip, It's not exactly, or not the one I ordered. Intel has upgraded 14nm tech and also branded it as 10th gen along with ice lake. I think only the non 2in1 has the 10nm chip.
What are the display specs for the dell used in this? I want to buy one from dell Australia but can only see FHD 1920x1080 Is this the same one or? I need the best quality display I can get for 2000 AUD or less! PLEASEE REPLY I NEED TO BUY ONE THIS MONTH 😭😭 please
Exactly I was expecting some tasks and encoding to see the differences, also I was surprised he didnt mention the speed of the ram cause the xps has 3733 hz ram which is wayyyy faster than the one on the macbook.
Application? Are these kid's gadgets? These are pro machine and what matters here is software.. Although MacOS doesn't have the ultimate software ability as Windows but still does professional jobs..
Apple samsung dell over and over again will do that, especially if recorded with high quality, and you say mostly good things about them, half of the tech channels do that, some do over 100 videos a year just on the iphone, ipad, macbook pro imac, note, galaxy, xps, some even multiple times aday, making sure to always keep those brands looking good, although max does list the shortcomings to occassionally. Adsense, to make the money, you follow the formula, max does it with quality production.
@@WhiteoutTech Honestly don't know anyone that hasn't had a problem with it. People will always even downplay issues but it's STILL and issue. At the price point there should be zero issues
@@IDiggPattyMayonnaise well the thing is that people always run into problems because they dont treat their hardware well. only time will tell how durably apples 4th gen butterfly keyboards are. besides there wasn't much of a choice as every other unibody 13'' windows notebook offers less than apples 13'' MBP at the same pricepoint.
the pen that works with the XPS is nowhere close to as good as the surface pen. and you would be giving up 3:2 for a much longer, shorter screen. I just got an SB2 a few weeks ago with the 1060 and it has been a blast so far.
@@brianwalsh288, Read and watched videos about the sb2 screen cracking from the inside on its own. I rather get the xps which uses latest technology instead of potentially defective product. I would also get a MacBook + ipad instead of a sb2. Actually I would also prefer an acer 2 in 1 than an sb2
@@stacia6678 Wouldn't surprise me, I do really change my mind all the time. But that is how I currently feel about the SB2, after buying the SP4 and having the shaking screen issue, and reading about the SB2 screen cracking issue I just started avoiding MS hardware. I only learned about the SB2 screen spontaneously breaking because at the time I was going to buy one.
even tho i love mac OS . i switched to xps because its actually what i want and need. a 2-1 ... i'm so much more productive with writing on the screen. signing signatures on emails quick, screen shot and draw in highlights, jotting down notes FEELS great, & just a much more expansive way of interacting with your laptop. i use photo editing and before on apple os - and i highly unliked carrying 2 computers. on the ipad doing hand edits on it and then transferring file to MBP to work out the final product - but with 2-1, also with a lot of other creative software you are much more IMMERSIVE in your projects simply by incorporating touch into your workflow. i love apple and mac os. but i feel so constrained with the hardware limitations in comparison with the xps. working with the xps is much more liberating and much much more productive and efficient - they should rename it the xps pro lol
Dude, this is a horrible comparison, you barely metioned the XPS' 360 design, and furthermore, you messed up your Mac facts, it's not using Intel's higher-end chip, it's using a two-generation old chip. Also, Geekbench 5 is soley x64 based, so that its tests can be more stress and performance-based, i.e. on these x64 systems, Geekbench 5 is more reliable for accurate results. I think they're both solid laptops, however the keyboards deserve more of a mention. Apple's butterfly keys are infamous for their loud noises and dust issues (that membrane did nothing). Also, the Mac software is generally superior as well as its build quality (not inlcuding the keyboard), that's also an important discussion seeing as though it's what people will be using for the next few years. One last point, actually show footage of the computers running software. I think its important to show how the computers actually run certain applications, not just TH-cam. Please improve for future comparisons.
To be honest, after watching your old video on the normal XPS vs the Macbook pro (the one that seemed to be very biased) It's good to see that you have seen the feedback and this review definitely seems more unbiased. Thanks for listening to your comments!
@@paradoxessence4872 true. So my point is that a whole set of functions come along with that additional functionality which in a "full comparison" should not be looked over.
It's so strange a company that pushes the iPad pro as computer replacement primarily on the merit of the touchscreen refuses to put one on any of their actual laptops. 3 years ago they literally said it was impractical to use a touchscreen for work, now it's all they talk about
That's the most pointless argument I've ever heard. I said that before (and I'll say it again) : Windows 10 is not like Windows Vista in anyway, The days of Windows Vista are gone (days of having unstable environment, crashes all the time...) Windows 10 is now so refined and stable than ever before. And in the end, both Windows and macOS are operarting systems build to serve their purposes (No one is better than the other)
Totally agree man. I hate to say it. But I love Mac just because of no lag no glitch no bullsht. I gave my surface pro to my dad. Bought 2018 i7 Macbook Pro 13". Love it so much.
I have a macbook air 2019, and i can tell that there is barely any key travel, and it doesnt't really feel like your pressing it, it just sounds like a click clack.
@@sophiamassad7884 The butterfly keyboard BLOWS, but you get used to it. It almost feels like I'm touching an on-screen keyboard with tactile feedback it is so shallow. It also is prone to breaking.
I have a 2016 Pro and I freaking love the keyboard, barely requires any pressure to press them down and the noise and feedback is great, I’ve played about with the new scissor keyboard and it just felt mushy and required more push to down plus edging a key felt like it missed too whereas the butterfly has such a low chance to miss a key
Michael Braun no, there are two “model” of MacBook Pro, one, the base have 2 thunderbolt,less speaker and only a fan, so it have a i5 1,4 ghz and you can upgrade it at i7 1,7 ghz The other “model” have 4 thunderbolt, better speaker, better writing ram, better cooling, (two smaller fan than one big) and it have a i5 2,4 ghz and i7 2,8 ghz The previus MacBook 13 had only one “model” whit i5 2,3 ghz and i7 2,7ghz
Enrico Colombo probably worth clarifying, this is a quad core processor were talking about not dual core, which makes the base clock speeds far less terrifying when you see 1.4 GHz on the MacBook Pro. That thing is actually a beast at the entry level! I can video edit 4K footage no problem again… On the entry-level price point! Which is insane.
@@Tigerex966 that’s a personal preference. I’m using the 13inch one and i like the keyboard. but the trackpad is fuckin amazing and the best trackpad on any laptop. btw what’s wrong with the trackpad?
@@koushikneriyanuri5420 yes reliability is, and even if you do not use them a touch screen is way more functional in every program than a touch pad, which is useful in only a few apps and takes away your function keys. And you can use a stylus, or finger knobs if you are worried about fingerprints. But it is a brand preference and personal one. Having said that we use touchscreens on outr tablets and phones and other devices everyday, even in card, at checkout, and atm's.
@Namaiki Fox haha, it's the only one, but you give up your funtion keys to get it, why not keep those keys and get a better touchpad than any touchpad, a touchscreen, with the same functionality and more, in every app.
The edges of the Dell are very distinct and I have found them very uncomfortable. My 4K touchscreen gets 4 hours with battery saver and 6 in airplane mode. How does that compare to the MacBook Pro? IMHO the Dell trackpad is equivalent to the Mac - first time I’ve experienced this. I used to be a Mac fanboy but switched to Windows 10 because of crappy Microsoft Office support on MacOS. I really like Windows 10 personally. My Mac envy days are over, probably forever now that I have this Dell laptop. It is widely acknowledged that Apple has put their computer business on the back burner. The latest MacOS release has been a disaster. Microsoft seems to have gotten its mojo back in many ways. I have reasonable confidence that the Windows/Dell ecosystem is a better bet for the future.
Crazy! I’ve been praising the newest MacBook pros, and everyone has been saying Apple is stupid because they solder everything to the board, then immediately recommending this XPS as a substitute!… But the XPS also solders everything to the board! And it starts out at 4 GB of RAM as opposed to 8 GB of RAM, am I missing something?? I’m so excited about the newest MacBook Pro leaks that I really don’t care what anyone says anymore, to each his own! I’m going to wait for these mini LED display/magic keyboard 14 inch MacBook pros to hit the market! I don’t think I’m alone either!
I've tried a lot of laptops before. I had Lenovo, Microsoft surface pro lineup, HP, DELL, Apple, Razer and MSI from the top of my head. And anecdotally, Apple just lasts longer. Maybe I need to go through a youtube playlist on how to maintain windows as an operating system, but from personal experience an Apple 3 years from now is more functional than a windows laptop 3 years from now, not to mention a higher resale value. While you definitely get more bang for your buck in the windows devices (at initial value, without factoring in resale), I found myself frequently replacing windows devices more often. Dell was pretty damn good though. Right now, my MSI laptop is in repairs so I'm currently at a toss up between a DELL or an apple. I am eager for the new 13"/14" Macbook pro, but I'm in need of a computer urgently :(
I've had a Dell laptop before and barely ever used it. Lol. Not the biggest fan of Dell laptops. I sold that laptop and bought an iPod touch that I had for nearly two years before I dropped it in water. I used my dad and stepmom's laptop (which is a MacBook Pro) for years until I bought my own this year. When it comes to laptops, I prefer Apple. Easier to use and I'm more used to it. Bought the same MacBook Pro as in this video and I love it. First laptop I've ever bought myself as well. Beautiful device. If anyone is looking to buy a laptop, I definitely recommend that one.
1 year with XPS and although laptop is great ive had problems with screen flashing when you go fullscreen on apps like Netflix and problems with flea energy meaning you need to open up the pc to remove the battery unless you are willing to pay a technician for it, my mates both mac users 0 problems with either laptop or customer service. Hope I helped, really happy with my XPS though, sometimes it seems better to have more on paper specs for the similar price but apple always manages, with software and optimization, to cut the gap.
@@albertomerchantc7951 ive been using my xps for 4 yrs now and i fell in love with the small bezels im will to forego the softwarr issues. If only mac pros manage to update their design then choosing between the two would be a cinch
If you don't have to use MacOs exclusive programms don't go for the Macbook. In case you need to use MacOs for work etc. buy the retina MacBook Pro 2013/14. Modern MacBook Pros are cursed with design flaws: a keyboard which fails after some time, a serious design flaw with the display cable/connector, insufficient cooling and a soldered ssd which doesn't have a data recovery port. To perfect the disaster Apple decided to make a repair as hard as possible and they will charge you insane amounts of money even for the smallest repair. On top of that both of the laptops in this video have a poor amount of ports which isn't very Pro at all.
Just finished boxing up the Dell XPS 13 2in1 for return. Coming from an early 2015 MBP 13 and the XPS was a letdown. The XPS design is beautiful and feels solid, but Windows drivers are still buggy. Spent hours updating and configuring the way I like it and the SupportAssist tool promptly updated BIOS and Killer WiFi 6 drivers, only to lead to icons disappearing from my Quick Launch and the WiFi control console no longer starting. I honestly would rather continue using my 5-year-old MBP over the latest XPS 13 2in1. Getting ready to order the new MBP 2020. Thank you, Max, for the insight reviews and comparisons!
I liked the video and mostly agree, but I think the new XPS 13 (not the 2-in-1) would be a more direct comparison since there is no Macbook 2-in-1 yet (perhaps ever). I feel the Dell stacks up better in that comparison as well, since you can get a six-core Cannon Lake CPU.
Eh, it's the opposite for me. Every dell I've had pretty much still works fine. I've had too many macs have hardware failure... I think it's not very reasonable to use one example as a generalization however. I don't say that Mac's are all doomed to fail but I'm certainly jaded.
Ann B I’ve had three too. One was from 2007 and didn’t break but was just old and slow. One was from 2012 which was the same case. I’m now using a 2017 XPS 15 9560. Only problem I have with it is if I don’t routinely redo the thermal paste it throttles.
Same with me, XPS 13 and some Microsoft Surfaces crashed 1 or 2 months after the warranty expired. lol They don't last. Apple lasts, thats proven. I may buy one if I can easily install windows on it.
Sorry XPS speakers are fine, firstly they are postioned where they are as it's a 2n1 In tent mode, tablet mode and media mode the speakers are not down firing! Also as for sound fedelity and loudness did you go into the Waves MaxxAudio Pro app and actually enable it, massively enhances the sound and also loudness! However I have had 2 of these, first one had a faulty motherboard and 2nd the left side was bent so the laptop wouldn't sit flush. Will be a lovely machine if they can sort out the QC. I'm still using my MacBook Pro 13, 2018 model until the Surface 3 laptop comes out, that's going to be interesting! Thanks for the review.
@@mrjackbilbo Have you actually used the XPS 2n1? It's not way better, XPS has better keyboard, better screen with touch,4k and DV/HDR, far newer and more efficent processor I couldn't continue but no point!
It can be customized at all countries which have manufacturing centers. Some countries like USA, Singapore, Thailand, China, Ireland and more have facilities to customize.
shashank Reddy i bought new xps 13 last week. I7 10th gen 16gb ram and 512 ssd with 4k display to be honest why the hell no one mention about monitor response??seriously when im watching fast scenes on netflix i see something like blur and also even in windows its seems to be shity ,60hz monitor but feels like 10 :/ thats only 1 downside of new xps
Either will probably be just fine. I use MacBook Pro and enjoy using it a lot, but there's no reason you can't use the the Dell and get the same work done, assuming you're using software like Adobe Suite that's available for either platform.
Honest review! I have chosen the Mac pro because the Mac OS but I can switch to windows when I need it , as I install double os in my Mac book . Dell XPS is the best if you just want a Windows OS for work. My XPS 2017 is still good enough for daily use now and I give it to my dad and he just enjoys the touch screen as an assistance to input.
They may be the same price to buy now, but when you want to get a new one in a couple of years those Macbooks tend to sell for more so your cost over that time will likely be lower. I'd have to take the Macbook for Mac OS, Windows, and resale value.
What are the display specs for the dell used in this? I want to buy one from dell Australia but can only see FHD 1920x1080 Is this the same one or? I need the best quality display I can get for 2000 AUD or less!
Thank you Max for the comparison. Love your vids, and your bro's too. gives an impression that Microcenter sells the XPS 13 at $500 less without Windows activated. lol which is more comfortable to read on? the screen with lesser reflection? I am incline to Windows now because Catalina messed up my Apps. my adobe CS6 can't work. now I am back to High Sierra.
This video is final proof that Geekbench is not reliable benchmark. We know already that according to it Apple ARM processors are on par with fastest Intel x86 CPUs(LOL) and now we can see than in v4 MBP is way faster, but in v5 its XPS on significant lead. Cinebench/GFXbench are way better. At least results are consistent.
Mateusz Drewnowski geekbench stresses different things on mobile chips and since it’s so short it doesn’t show how a laptop with better cooling would spank an iPad Pro with no fans in a long term setting. If an iPad was running the exact same program as a MacBook with similar performing CPUs in geekbench, the MacBook would turbo for much longer and wouldn’t throttle as much
Stuff it’s only considered the 1299 so that you can differentiate it with the higher specced one since there no official name for them so that’s why it’s called that
excellent explanation but I still can’t choose either one of those. I will install Ubuntu on the XPS anyway. But I will use MacOS for some sensitive works and video editing The best solution for me would be getting a Mac and install Ubuntu and MacOS at the same time. But the Mac only have gen 8th cpu and 16GB of ddr3......
Yet a Mac still wins over the XPS due to the lack of support from Dell. Good luck finding a charger or support from Dell if you don't live in the US, and good luck finding their genuine parts anywhere without a big hassle that will make you wish you bought a Macbook where you can find an Apple store in many countries or worst case can order it online. Whereas Dell doesn't support ordering online unless you use a US card.
Hahahaha I haven't activated mine yet. It's been 6 months. I keep upgrading parts anyways as I get more money so Id have to reactivate it frequently anyways. Once I'm satisfied with the performance I'll activate it. Just waiting for the 3950x
@@RicoViking9000 yeah sometimes you do. If enough parts are changed windows will sometimes make you re activate it. Because it recognizes it as a new PC.
Upgrading big things like your Mobo or multiple smaller parts may trigger a reactivation requirement. support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/20530/windows-10-reactivating-after-hardware-change
Neither there is so much competition, from Lenovo, Asus, surface pro and laptop, lg gram, VAIO, and the razor stealth,a 13" with a real gpu, and others. Both are good, though, except for this soldered on madness, good to see some like Microsoft, and LG and others staying thin, " And " letting you have upgradeable ssds, memory, and tons of ports, it can be done, but companies would lose huge profits from insane ssd and ram upgrade at purchase prices. I mean like $300 to go form 8GB to 16Gb, that's $300 for 8gb, or $300 to go from 128GB (too low) to 256GB, that's $300 for 128GB more. When ssd's 1tb pro fast ones at $80, even Samsung's super fast 1tb is $150 retail, and these companies buying millions pay have that, I am guessing they pay $10 or less to go from 128Gb to $256, and no more than $30 to go from 8GB to 16GB, and by soldering it on by design and making at purchase you're only time to upgrade by design they scam so many, when in fact they can make the machines just as thin and still allow ssd and ram upgrades, but they do not because it would ruin they're highly profitable scam.
If you don’t require windows. Mac is the way to go. I’ve done countless of research. Unless you need program software compatibility for engineering students for example, you won’t miss windows. iOS is a preference but is more advanced, intuitive to learn and manipulate. Buy one at Apple and you have 14 days to try it out they give money back guarantee. Mac is guaranteed to last longer physically with much higher build quality. Apple screws you on paying for accessories. iOS updates are plentiful and great to have. If you have iPhone, the continuity is excellent. The rest is pretty much personal preference.
You use the touch screen for handwriting to text in say onenote Or for other uses you dont use it while its open like a normal laptop And most people who get an xps laptop arent musicians or movie stars so they probably dont care too much about speakers, why wouldnt you get bluetooth headphones Plus you can get an xps laptop for way less then a macbook, even the 16gb ram equivalent is cheaper
I just bought this laptop yesterday, and it has coil whine noises and also the fan sound is really loud even though im not using any heavy apps. Any suggestion? Thanks
I believe the loud fan noise is a windows software issue. Cool whine is an xps issue but we didn’t really experience it yet on our model. If it annoys you, return it now because it’ll probably get worse with time.
hi there bailey, i am a current windows user (5yo laptop) and am quite confused between upgrading to a macbook pro (1700ish€) or an i7 + 16gb ultrabook (1000ish€). i have heard many good things about macbook, especially the fact that it "just works". how is your opinion on macbooks? (laptop for professional & study uses)
I just bought this xps 13 7390 2in1 yesterday, and it has coil whine noises and also the fan sound is really loud even though im not using any heavy apps. Any suggestion? Thanks
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!
I got myself the 32gb ram XPS 7390. It’s a fantastic machine but I wish Apple would take risk and follow the trend if not innovate. No touch screen no pen support option on their laptop range is weak from a 1 Trillion $ company.
IMHO i have an iPad too. But touchscreen on a laptop allows me to scroll through my documents much quicker than a trackpad or a mouse. Also what about those who buy a keyboard for their iPad? Why not just get a touchscreen laptop? Typing an email letter on a screen is the most inefficient way to type.
@@imho4990 Would rather not have to carry two devices when I can do it with one. I have a touch screen laptop and use the touch screen daily for quick and simple tasks. Better to have it than to not.
@@imho4990 Haha OK fanboy. You're just justifying Mac's lack of touchscreen. You cannot possibly believe an app or website designed for touch is better with just a touchpad. Nice try though.
Using words like "idiotic" is hardly objective and your arguments for not needing a touchscreen because you can use an iPad or an EXCELLENT touchpad are poor. Touchscreen has its place on laptops, especially as more apps, sites, and operating systems are being designed for it. Something that is useful is not "idiotic", bottom line having both a touchpad and touchscreen on a laptop is useful.
@@cazibrasga a touchscreen on a laptop is impractical for a large number of people. It isn't hard to read here on TH-cam and various other forums that reaching forward to touch the screen while sitting on a desk (which is where work gets done) slows down the workflow, is impractical, and tiring. Have you ever heard of "gorilla arm"? And while you're reading those posts from touchscreen laptop users, you'll come to find that about half of them don't use the touchscreen the majority of the time if at all.
My 2019 13 mac book sometimes get heated upto 70 .and it stuck when overheated and unable to shutdown it.it will takes much time.is it normal situation or abdominal .i hve been using this lap for 2 months
Surya Subedi Both should do the job just fine. You can get an XPS and run Adobe Premiere Pro, or you can get a MacBook and use iMovie which comes pre installed for free and should do the job for editing vlogs. You can also buy Final Cut Pro on the MacBook if iMovie isn’t powerful enough for you. Personally, I’m leaning towards the MacBook since I enjoy video editing in Final Cut Pro and iMovie. The only downside to the MacBook is that you need to buy a USB type C to USB type A dongle in order to plug in any accessories, but they’re cheap on amazon. Hope this helps, good luck!

great review. I think one important point was missed: the XPS 13 2 in 1 is also pen enabled; which means you get a laptop and a tablet in one package.
Pejman Sehatpour I think that’s what 2 in 1 means
@@paradoxessence4872 true. So my point is that a whole set of functions come along with that additional functionality which in a "full comparison" should not be looked over.
Great comparison and useful information, thank you
We asked and you delivered. Thank you so much. You just earned a sub :)
Very very nice..... Detailed description..... hand's up bro👌👌👌👌👌
Great video, and acknowledging that Dell XPS are never at 'full' price is the kind of honesty and genuine comparison that just got my sub.
For 1299$ MacBook Pro you will have I5 (not I7 as in video), slower SSD , smaller speakers and 1 FAN (2 Fans in more expensive models)
Oh yeah. And the Dell XPS is actually a 2 on 1 with a touch screen... Why Apple lemmings continue to keep this company afloat I'll never understand.
It's so strange a company that pushes the iPad pro as computer replacement primarily on the merit of the touchscreen refuses to put one on any of their actual laptops. 3 years ago they literally said it was impractical to use a touchscreen for work, now it's all they talk about
Dell has only one downside - Windows
True
Jean Yves Coffy Windows 10 is great.
That's the most pointless argument I've ever heard.
I said that before (and I'll say it again) : Windows 10 is not like Windows Vista in anyway, The days of Windows Vista are gone (days of having unstable environment, crashes all the time...)
Windows 10 is now so refined and stable than ever before.
And in the end, both Windows and macOS are operarting systems build to serve their purposes (No one is better than the other)
hack it then...
Totally agree man. I hate to say it. But I love Mac just because of no lag no glitch no bullsht. I gave my surface pro to my dad. Bought 2018 i7 Macbook Pro 13". Love it so much.
How can you love MacBooks keyboard...
It’s really bad keyboard
I have a macbook air 2019, and i can tell that there is barely any key travel, and it doesnt't really feel like your pressing it, it just sounds like a click clack.
i actually love the butterfly keys on my 2019 macbook air *even better* than my magic keyboard on my iMac 😂
*very unpopular opinion* LOL
@@sophiamassad7884 The butterfly keyboard BLOWS, but you get used to it. It almost feels like I'm touching an on-screen keyboard with tactile feedback it is so shallow. It also is prone to breaking.
I have a 2016 Pro and I freaking love the keyboard, barely requires any pressure to press them down and the noise and feedback is great, I’ve played about with the new scissor keyboard and it just felt mushy and required more push to down plus edging a key felt like it missed too whereas the butterfly has such a low chance to miss a key
Macbook just because I received an iPad pro and now Apple has trapped me in the ecosystem....
I love it too much !!!
@11:18 MacBook pro base model has i5 processor, not i7
Not only this the 2019 MBP comes max with an 1,7 Ghz Processor not an 2,8 Ghz. The Specs in this Video are from the 2018 MBP
Michael Braun no, there are two “model” of MacBook Pro, one, the base have 2 thunderbolt,less speaker and only a fan, so it have a i5 1,4 ghz and you can upgrade it at i7 1,7 ghz
The other “model” have 4 thunderbolt, better speaker, better writing ram, better cooling, (two smaller fan than one big) and it have a i5 2,4 ghz and i7 2,8 ghz
The previus MacBook 13 had only one “model” whit i5 2,3 ghz and i7 2,7ghz
Michael Braun you are talking about the base or normal model?
Enrico Colombo probably worth clarifying, this is a quad core processor were talking about not dual core, which makes the base clock speeds far less terrifying when you see 1.4 GHz on the MacBook Pro. That thing is actually a beast at the entry level! I can video edit 4K footage no problem again… On the entry-level price point! Which is insane.
Great video Maxtech! Is the dell Xps compatible with an E gpu like razer core?
Yes!
minimal bezel of screen and keyboard make Dell XPS more captivating, and it has micro SD slot. I'll go for Dell
Macbook. Because little things matter over the long haul.
like the keyboard, and touchpad
@@Tigerex966 that’s a personal preference. I’m using the 13inch one and i like the keyboard. but the trackpad is fuckin amazing and the best trackpad on any laptop. btw what’s wrong with the trackpad?
@Namaiki Fox 😘
@@koushikneriyanuri5420 yes reliability is, and even if you do not use them a touch screen is way more functional in every program than a touch pad, which is useful in only a few apps and takes away your function keys.
And you can use a stylus, or finger knobs if you are worried about fingerprints.
But it is a brand preference and personal one.
Having said that we use touchscreens on outr tablets and phones and other devices everyday, even in card, at checkout, and atm's.
@Namaiki Fox haha, it's the only one, but you give up your funtion keys to get it, why not keep those keys and get a better touchpad than any touchpad, a touchscreen, with the same functionality and more, in every app.
amazing comparison .. thank you
The edges of the Dell are very distinct and I have found them very uncomfortable. My 4K touchscreen gets 4 hours with battery saver and 6 in airplane mode. How does that compare to the MacBook Pro? IMHO the Dell trackpad is equivalent to the Mac - first time I’ve experienced this. I used to be a Mac fanboy but switched to Windows 10 because of crappy Microsoft Office support on MacOS. I really like Windows 10 personally.
My Mac envy days are over, probably forever now that I have this Dell laptop. It is widely acknowledged that Apple has put their computer business on the back burner. The latest MacOS release has been a disaster. Microsoft seems to have gotten its mojo back in many ways. I have reasonable confidence that the Windows/Dell ecosystem is a better bet for the future.
emmgeevideo yeah I agree with you/.
You always prefer Apple everything.
As the co-host of apple insider, I would've expected nothing less
@@anishawasthi1109 agreed but subjective
Ricerous because they always make awesome and really long lasting products
Because apple products are better,.
@@mrjackbilbo I don't think so, they make one side priducts and also their products are only for the rich.
Crazy! I’ve been praising the newest MacBook pros, and everyone has been saying Apple is stupid because they solder everything to the board, then immediately recommending this XPS as a substitute!… But the XPS also solders everything to the board! And it starts out at 4 GB of RAM as opposed to 8 GB of RAM, am I missing something?? I’m so excited about the newest MacBook Pro leaks that I really don’t care what anyone says anymore, to each his own! I’m going to wait for these mini LED display/magic keyboard 14 inch MacBook pros to hit the market! I don’t think I’m alone either!
I've tried a lot of laptops before. I had Lenovo, Microsoft surface pro lineup, HP, DELL, Apple, Razer and MSI from the top of my head.
And anecdotally, Apple just lasts longer. Maybe I need to go through a youtube playlist on how to maintain windows as an operating system, but from personal experience an Apple 3 years from now is more functional than a windows laptop 3 years from now, not to mention a higher resale value.
While you definitely get more bang for your buck in the windows devices (at initial value, without factoring in resale), I found myself frequently replacing windows devices more often. Dell was pretty damn good though.
Right now, my MSI laptop is in repairs so I'm currently at a toss up between a DELL or an apple. I am eager for the new 13"/14" Macbook pro, but I'm in need of a computer urgently :(
I've had a Dell laptop before and barely ever used it. Lol. Not the biggest fan of Dell laptops. I sold that laptop and bought an iPod touch that I had for nearly two years before I dropped it in water. I used my dad and stepmom's laptop (which is a MacBook Pro) for years until I bought my own this year. When it comes to laptops, I prefer Apple. Easier to use and I'm more used to it. Bought the same MacBook Pro as in this video and I love it. First laptop I've ever bought myself as well. Beautiful device. If anyone is looking to buy a laptop, I definitely recommend that one.
14 inch 16:10 would be perfect as you get 13.3 inches image when watching 16:9 content and get a taller screen when browsing the web
I still cant decide between the macbook pro and xps. :(
Tisha Blackpink me too :(
1 year with XPS and although laptop is great ive had problems with screen flashing when you go fullscreen on apps like Netflix and problems with flea energy meaning you need to open up the pc to remove the battery unless you are willing to pay a technician for it, my mates both mac users 0 problems with either laptop or customer service. Hope I helped, really happy with my XPS though, sometimes it seems better to have more on paper specs for the similar price but apple always manages, with software and optimization, to cut the gap.
@@albertomerchantc7951 ive been using my xps for 4 yrs now and i fell in love with the small bezels im will to forego the softwarr issues. If only mac pros manage to update their design then choosing between the two would be a cinch
Wait a couple weeks for the X360 Spectre 13” OLED reviews. I preordered mine in Poseidon Blue 🥶
If you don't have to use MacOs exclusive programms don't go for the Macbook. In case you need to use MacOs for work etc. buy the retina MacBook Pro 2013/14. Modern MacBook Pros are cursed with design flaws: a keyboard which fails after some time, a serious design flaw with the display cable/connector, insufficient cooling and a soldered ssd which doesn't have a data recovery port. To perfect the disaster Apple decided to make a repair as hard as possible and they will charge you insane amounts of money even for the smallest repair. On top of that both of the laptops in this video have a poor amount of ports which isn't very Pro at all.
Just finished boxing up the Dell XPS 13 2in1 for return. Coming from an early 2015 MBP 13 and the XPS was a letdown. The XPS design is beautiful and feels solid, but Windows drivers are still buggy. Spent hours updating and configuring the way I like it and the SupportAssist tool promptly updated BIOS and Killer WiFi 6 drivers, only to lead to icons disappearing from my Quick Launch and the WiFi control console no longer starting. I honestly would rather continue using my 5-year-old MBP over the latest XPS 13 2in1. Getting ready to order the new MBP 2020. Thank you, Max, for the insight reviews and comparisons!
Hi Max,
Could you do a comparison between base model macbook and equivalent price xps 2 in 1
This will be interesting
Base models are utter trash and not worth ur money
Great review👍 BUT I choose the iPad Pro over both‼️🤗✅
i would choose macbook pro 🙋🏻♂️
mike miles I already have the 15” MacBook Pro core i9 and I love how fast it is
No matter how good a tablet the iPad Pro is you’ll still need a laptop to do any serious work.
3:25 It’s actually 2560x1600 not 2880x1600
The Dell XPS 13 is amazing and that screen is beautiful! It's also nice that it can become a tablet as well 👍
touchscreen is amazing and windows 10 is realy good at moment
IMHO For most people probably, but if you’re a business user or student, pen input (unfortunately pen doesn’t come in the box) might be very handy.
IMHO Yes but then you’ll need to carry around two devices which is a little counter productive if you want a compact, portable work station.
I liked the video and mostly agree, but I think the new XPS 13 (not the 2-in-1) would be a more direct comparison since there is no Macbook 2-in-1 yet (perhaps ever). I feel the Dell stacks up better in that comparison as well, since you can get a six-core Cannon Lake CPU.
I had 3 dells. Crash and burn compared to the 1 mac ....I still have......
Eh, it's the opposite for me. Every dell I've had pretty much still works fine. I've had too many macs have hardware failure...
I think it's not very reasonable to use one example as a generalization however. I don't say that Mac's are all doomed to fail but I'm certainly jaded.
Gabriel Benitez Same with me
Which 3 dells did you have? Often with comments like this the user buys actual garbage low end products from dell or any company
Ann B I’ve had three too. One was from 2007 and didn’t break but was just old and slow. One was from 2012 which was the same case. I’m now using a 2017 XPS 15 9560. Only problem I have with it is if I don’t routinely redo the thermal paste it throttles.
Same with me, XPS 13 and some Microsoft Surfaces crashed 1 or 2 months after the warranty expired. lol They don't last. Apple lasts, thats proven. I may buy one if I can easily install windows on it.
Macs used to be unique and ahead of everything, but nowadays they look like boomer tech.
Apple needs to revamp EVERYTHING.
What about battery life?
I wouldn't touch a laptop with a butterfly keyboard with a pole stick!
Lmao he was using the 15 inch macbook pro specs in the first test, not the 13 inch.
Micro Center 😍
Sorry XPS speakers are fine, firstly they are postioned where they are as it's a 2n1 In tent mode, tablet mode and media mode the speakers are not down firing! Also as for sound fedelity and loudness did you go into the Waves MaxxAudio Pro app and actually enable it, massively enhances the sound and also loudness! However I have had 2 of these, first one had a faulty motherboard and 2nd the left side was bent so the laptop wouldn't sit flush. Will be a lovely machine if they can sort out the QC. I'm still using my MacBook Pro 13, 2018 model until the Surface 3 laptop comes out, that's going to be interesting! Thanks for the review.
No,. Macbook is way better,.
@@mrjackbilbo Have you actually used the XPS 2n1? It's not way better, XPS has better keyboard, better screen with touch,4k and DV/HDR, far newer and more efficent processor I couldn't continue but no point!
Which one is good the Dell one or the MacBook?
Its a huge difference in color temperature and brightness of The screens. Xps being The Best one.
Maybe the true is on on mbp, still xps has good display.
Dayvisson Souza True Tone was on , on the MacBook Pro, so is was looking dimmer
@@nikhilkhandolkar8557 cant you turn that off to make a fair comparison?
I have a question... Why is everyone so hype over touch screen laptops??? I HATE fingerprints on my screen. That's why you have a tablet/iPad.
...said everyone about cell phones 12 years ago 😌
Best in class comparison, incredibly well done! The XPS is stunning. It might have better audio in tent mode
Michael Pujos but if ur using the XPS on a bed on ur lap then u won’t hear anything, think about tht
@@nikhilkhandolkar8557 I have one and the sound still comes through clearly
The xps screen looks so much better/brighter in this video
Macbook pro 13 of 2019 has i5 clocked at 2.4ghz and 256gb ssd (the top model). I dont know where you got your spec list from.
You can customize the 13 inch to i7
In fact you can customize the Mac book pro
@@j572y479 yes you are right it is available in the usa as an option but not in the 3rd world country i live in
It can be customized at all countries which have manufacturing centers. Some countries like USA, Singapore, Thailand, China, Ireland and more have facilities to customize.
Hmm if u budget tight i recommend new HP Envy 13” 2019. Hope to see video of that one mate👍
I bought one a month ago and it’s just like a xps 13 but with better speakers.
shashank Reddy i bought new xps 13 last week. I7 10th gen 16gb ram and 512 ssd with 4k display to be honest why the hell no one mention about monitor response??seriously when im watching fast scenes on netflix i see something like blur and also even in windows its seems to be shity ,60hz monitor but feels like 10 :/ thats only 1 downside of new xps
@@krzysiekzmora1422 return for a new one if you can.
Daniel Phung allways enough for my needs. I need to charge it maby once a week now cuz i dont use it so much. Easy 8h not
On full brightness
I noticed at 11:20 you display the 13” MacBookpro 1.4ghz as an i7 for $1300 but isn’t that the quad core i5 with two thunderbolt?
Why everyone really hate the touchbar?
Hey, which one is better for graphic design??
Either will probably be just fine. I use MacBook Pro and enjoy using it a lot, but there's no reason you can't use the the Dell and get the same work done, assuming you're using software like Adobe Suite that's available for either platform.
Honest review! I have chosen the Mac pro because the Mac OS but I can switch to windows when I need it , as I install double os in my Mac book . Dell XPS is the best if you just want a Windows OS for work. My XPS 2017 is still good enough for daily use now and I give it to my dad and he just enjoys the touch screen as an assistance to input.
Macbook will always win
They may be the same price to buy now, but when you want to get a new one in a couple of years those Macbooks tend to sell for more so your cost over that time will likely be lower. I'd have to take the Macbook for Mac OS, Windows, and resale value.
What are the display specs for the dell used in this? I want to buy one from dell Australia but can only see FHD 1920x1080
Is this the same one or? I need the best quality display I can get for 2000 AUD or less!
What apple products are equal to 2 in 1 producs?
Thank you Max for the comparison. Love your vids, and your bro's too.
gives an impression that Microcenter sells the XPS 13 at $500 less without Windows activated. lol
which is more comfortable to read on? the screen with lesser reflection?
I am incline to Windows now because Catalina messed up my Apps. my adobe CS6 can't work. now I am back to High Sierra.
Which will be suitable for auto cad user??🤔
Apple should make HDR capable displays for their laptops. It is a must nowadays.
compare the xps with the lenovo thinpad x1 yoga!!!!
Hope the next xps model has better speakers, improved hinge and three type c ports like the old model.
This video is final proof that Geekbench is not reliable benchmark. We know already that according to it Apple ARM processors are on par with fastest Intel x86 CPUs(LOL) and now we can see than in v4 MBP is way faster, but in v5 its XPS on significant lead. Cinebench/GFXbench are way better. At least results are consistent.
Mateusz Drewnowski geekbench stresses different things on mobile chips and since it’s so short it doesn’t show how a laptop with better cooling would spank an iPad Pro with no fans in a long term setting. If an iPad was running the exact same program as a MacBook with similar performing CPUs in geekbench, the MacBook would turbo for much longer and wouldn’t throttle as much
Does he not realise that with that small a screen 1080p and 4K are barely distinguishable from each other at normal viewing distances??
i thought 1299 macbook pro has i5 processor ..
Yohan Jeong you can configure it with an i7
@@bayo2001 but then it's not 1299
Stuff it’s only considered the 1299 so that you can differentiate it with the higher specced one since there no official name for them so that’s why it’s called that
IMHO I agree, actually no difference. I just wanted to mention
So the worst of the two has as high CL graphics score as my Nvidia 860m from 2013/4 ? Interesting. That's quite impressive.
What about performance for Dell with Ubuntu OS? Compared to Mac for Linux lovers 🤔
Any news of the XPS 15 with the tiny bezels?
Um for the past 4 years it has.
excellent explanation but I still can’t choose either one of those.
I will install Ubuntu on the XPS anyway. But I will use MacOS for some sensitive works and video editing The best solution for me would be getting a Mac and install Ubuntu and MacOS at the same time. But the Mac only have gen 8th cpu and 16GB of ddr3......
Yet a Mac still wins over the XPS due to the lack of support from Dell. Good luck finding a charger or support from Dell if you don't live in the US, and good luck finding their genuine parts anywhere without a big hassle that will make you wish you bought a Macbook where you can find an Apple store in many countries or worst case can order it online. Whereas Dell doesn't support ordering online unless you use a US card.
You can use any USB C charger in either of them as well as any thunderbolt 3 accessory since the ports are identical spec
XPS could be a much better laptop hardware wise but it's the macOS which makes me stay, man. macOS for life.
8:46, are you showing mac book 2015 spec against XPS 13?
?
It's the right macbook regardless, check the ram it's ddr3
"Activate Windows"
Hahahaha I haven't activated mine yet. It's been 6 months. I keep upgrading parts anyways as I get more money so Id have to reactivate it frequently anyways. Once I'm satisfied with the performance I'll activate it. Just waiting for the 3950x
@@RiceCubeTech That's not how it works lol, you don't need to keep reactivating it as you get more parts
@@RicoViking9000 yeah sometimes you do. If enough parts are changed windows will sometimes make you re activate it. Because it recognizes it as a new PC.
Upgrading big things like your Mobo or multiple smaller parts may trigger a reactivation requirement.

Neither there is so much competition, from Lenovo, Asus, surface pro and laptop, lg gram, VAIO, and the razor stealth,a 13" with a real gpu, and others.
Both are good, though, except for this soldered on madness, good to see some like Microsoft, and LG and others staying thin, " And " letting you have upgradeable ssds, memory, and tons of ports, it can be done, but companies would lose huge profits from insane ssd and ram upgrade at purchase prices.
I mean like $300 to go form 8GB to 16Gb, that's $300 for 8gb, or $300 to go from 128GB (too low) to 256GB, that's $300 for 128GB more.
When ssd's 1tb pro fast ones at $80, even Samsung's super fast 1tb is $150 retail, and these companies buying millions pay have that, I am guessing they pay $10 or less to go from 128Gb to $256, and no more than $30 to go from 8GB to 16GB, and by soldering it on by design and making at purchase you're only time to upgrade by design they scam so many, when in fact they can make the machines just as thin and still allow ssd and ram upgrades, but they do not because it would ruin they're highly profitable scam.
If you don’t require windows. Mac is the way to go. I’ve done countless of research. Unless you need program software compatibility for engineering students for example, you won’t miss windows. iOS is a preference but is more advanced, intuitive to learn and manipulate. Buy one at Apple and you have 14 days to try it out they give money back guarantee. Mac is guaranteed to last longer physically with much higher build quality. Apple screws you on paying for accessories. iOS updates are plentiful and great to have. If you have iPhone, the continuity is excellent. The rest is pretty much personal preference.
You use the touch screen for handwriting to text in say onenote
Or for other uses you dont use it while its open like a normal laptop
And most people who get an xps laptop arent musicians or movie stars so they probably dont care too much about speakers, why wouldnt you get bluetooth headphones
Plus you can get an xps laptop for way less then a macbook, even the 16gb ram equivalent is cheaper
Nice video.
I just bought this laptop yesterday, and it has coil whine noises and also the fan sound is really loud even though im not using any heavy apps. Any suggestion? Thanks
I believe the loud fan noise is a windows software issue. Cool whine is an xps issue but we didn’t really experience it yet on our model. If it annoys you, return it now because it’ll probably get worse with time.
On your surface laptop 3 vs dell xps 13 2in1comparison the surface laptop 3's keyboard won becuase it have more travel distance
What’s the point? The real deciding factor is the OS.
hi there bailey, i am a current windows user (5yo laptop) and am quite confused between upgrading to a macbook pro (1700ish€) or an i7 + 16gb ultrabook (1000ish€).
i have heard many good things about macbook, especially the fact that it "just works". how is your opinion on macbooks? (laptop for professional & study uses)

Comparison is fair with respect to the pricing.
You can obviously also get linux on the xps if you don't like windows...

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!
I got myself the 32gb ram XPS 7390. It’s a fantastic machine but I wish Apple would take risk and follow the trend if not innovate. No touch screen no pen support option on their laptop range is weak from a 1 Trillion $ company.
IMHO i have an iPad too. But touchscreen on a laptop allows me to scroll through my documents much quicker than a trackpad or a mouse. Also what about those who buy a keyboard for their iPad? Why not just get a touchscreen laptop? Typing an email letter on a screen is the most inefficient way to type.
@@imho4990 Would rather not have to carry two devices when I can do it with one. I have a touch screen laptop and use the touch screen daily for quick and simple tasks. Better to have it than to not.
@@imho4990 Haha OK fanboy. You're just justifying Mac's lack of touchscreen. You cannot possibly believe an app or website designed for touch is better with just a touchpad. Nice try though.
Using words like "idiotic" is hardly objective and your arguments for not needing a touchscreen because you can use an iPad or an EXCELLENT touchpad are poor. Touchscreen has its place on laptops, especially as more apps, sites, and operating systems are being designed for it. Something that is useful is not "idiotic", bottom line having both a touchpad and touchscreen on a laptop is useful.
@@cazibrasga a touchscreen on a laptop is impractical for a large number of people. It isn't hard to read here on TH-cam and various other forums that reaching forward to touch the screen while sitting on a desk (which is where work gets done) slows down the workflow, is impractical, and tiring. Have you ever heard of "gorilla arm"? And while you're reading those posts from touchscreen laptop users, you'll come to find that about half of them don't use the touchscreen the majority of the time if at all.

for video editing which i should buy macbook 13 i5 or dell xps 13 i7 Which one is better?
It depends. What video editing software are you using? Final Cut Pro on macOS is pretty powerful.
@@TylerN945 for youtube vlog video? Which one is the best?
Surya Subedi Both should do the job just fine. You can get an XPS and run Adobe Premiere Pro, or you can get a MacBook and use iMovie which comes pre installed for free and should do the job for editing vlogs. You can also buy Final Cut Pro on the MacBook if iMovie isn’t powerful enough for you. Personally, I’m leaning towards the MacBook since I enjoy video editing in Final Cut Pro and iMovie. The only downside to the MacBook is that you need to buy a USB type C to USB type A dongle in order to plug in any accessories, but they’re cheap on amazon. Hope this helps, good luck!
