I think Macbook Pro is too overrated. I'd go with something like this any day.
Off course..
Stomu Yamashta obviously the MacBook is better because it's a more premium device. MacBooks are still overrated. They're charging too much and there are competitors with equal to better specs for a lower price.
@@1yougotrickrolled603 I want to get a MacBook, but i'm waiting for new version, with better more reliable keyboards
Macbook sure is better but they r overcharged. The price should be 15% less will make it more reasonable
The new xps 13 9300 is amazing
Damnit I bought last years model and have to keep the damn webcam, should have waited
If you use a webcam... Get a new webcam..
Donovan Pereida I also have the 9370 and I’d take Hello facial recognition over a webcam on top any day.
Productivity and video editing is still painful on the 16:9 screen
I have the xps where the webcam is in the corner..
at least you still got windows hello (which I assume you use?)
You are right about the arrow keys and the page up/down. Keyboards should leave the space beside the up arrow. Most of our typing time, we are pressing on the arrow keys to move the cursor around. And that blank space beside the up arrow (above the left and right arrows) helps in touch typing. As a developer who touch-types a lot, I really hate the laptops that put some keys in that blank space or enlarging the left and right keys to get rid of the space.
There's a reason why the original layout of the arrow keys is like that -- to aid in touch typing -- and if a laptop get rid of the blank space at the left and right of the up arrow, it's like removing the bump on the F and J keys too.
Yes I agree, I quite surprisingly prefer the function+arrow for page-up/down/begin/end on my old macbook...
Why touch type, isnt it way slower, u can always use a mouse
@@RyxFPS touch typing on arrow keys is not slower than using the mouse. For instance, you're editing a document, or for a programmer like me who moves the cursor a lot when writing or editing a source code, using the mouse is way slower than pressing the arrow keys.
@@pierrelezan yes, last year my cousin who is a journalist asked me for advice as to which laptop to buy. I suggested Dell XPS and he seemed to be convinced. But at the end he got an Asus. When I asked him why Asus, I thought he would mention the webcam or some specs, but I was surprised when he told me that it's because of the keyboard: the ASUS he bought has an arrow key layout similar to his old MacBook Pro 2011 where there are blanks beside the up arrow. He said anything that isn't annoying when typing is a plus point for him when choosing a laptop.
@@otanix another dealbreaker for me is the lack of rj45, yes it can make the laptop thicker but i just need gigabit networking (and i hate dongles)
Hey Dave, been waiting since CES for this review cos I'm going to uni soon and am considering this laptop. Thanks for the vid! :)
lol
CAUTION!!!!!
I use a 2018 XPS 15. And let me tell you I'm not happy with the device at all. The new BIOS update literally takes away the sleep mode as we know it. The machine's fans are always on even in sleep mode and the whole battery drains in a few hours on SLEEP!!!!
I don't know if 2019 XPS 13 will have the same Issue.
If you are looking to buy one of these please do your research.
Dhruv Patel I too had quite a few annoying issues with my XPS 15, so I can testify to that.

Yeah but is it worth the extra money?
@@jonathandeakins5645 It actually surprised me how much I did notice the downgrade moving from a QHD smartphone screen to a 1080p screen, and that's on a sub 6" screen.
@@jonathandeakins5645 100% worth the money imo - I use my laptop for photo editing, 3D CAD and general browsing.

I just bought this laptop based on your review 👍 It will arrive in a few days 😀
Hope you don't have problems. Sorry to say, but you probably will encounter a few.
Like money.exe stopped working
Dell has very bad quality control. all my dell laptops had issues. That's why i dont buy Dell product anymore. Hope that's not the case for you.
@@robertjzhao gave him a heart attack
Your reviews are so honest. Thank you!
Really appreciate how he takes a sensible approach to purchasing a product. Reviewers in every "genre" will complain and go for the most expensive, feature packed options because a lot of the times they don't have to pay for them.
Most other dudes: "Yeah you can't do anything without the upgraded i9 processor and the extra 16gigs of RAM, it's an extra $1500 but its definitely worth it" Referring to a lightweight laptop that'll more than likely just run a Powerpoint as its most stressful application.
2:41 whoever added the meme is a genius
well He is genius. we all know that
you're like a cool engineering professor
People think I'm mad for spending so much money on a laptop. However, sometimes in life you really have to treat yourself to something truly special. The XPS is the best laptop I have ever owned by far, it's also my first Dell. Before this I used to have HP laptops and every one of them was terrible and literally fell to pieces. I only wish I had discovered the XPS range sooner. The trouble is, once you have an XPS you will never want to go back to anything else. It really is the best laptop you can buy. Dell know this, hence the reason these things are so god damn expensive.
Mathew Jenkins did you ever use a Mac?
@@ananyasahoo2615 Yes, I have used Macs and they are built to a very high standard. I chose the XPS as I prefer windows over MacOs. I would absolutely recommend a Mac to anybody wanting a high end laptop.
you are awesome. you tried to explain how the old one is looking after a year of usage, which was the best part of this video. It is really important for me to know how it really looks like after a year of usage. This, I don't see from most youtubers. Please do this kind of compares more (I know it's not possible for new devices, but if there is an older version of a model it would be helpful)
As always a very informative and well presented review. Really enjoy the way you speak and communicate all the details. In a way both informative and relaxing. Thanks! Cheers

They are charge some much without offering dedicated graphics.
@@oshanew9941 it's "thin & light" not a workstation. Can imagine it for programmers, managers, analysts,... Who don't care about graphics which would require more cooling and power.
@@krystofsuchanek2802 shut up. Its overpriced. The built quality is not better than the other brands outh there and the internals are the same.... bur the price is 100 to 200 dollars more
@@krystofsuchanek2802 glad someone understands that not every laptop is geared towards people who are more focused on the graphical capabilities.

Hi, Thank you for the video but I have a question. What is the image you were using @5:38 and from where did you get it.
Nice review!! I’m thinking about xps13 but I’m not pretty sure is there a lot different from the previous generation. This video is helped me out.
"it's uhd 620 and quite frankly it's *trash* ."
*cries in intel uhd graphics*
I agree it's weak but for people who don't need graphical power, the lack of it actually improves the battery life quite a bit. Too bad Dell decided to sell the xps line in Europe wayyyy more expensive than in the states.
I guess Dave has his own criterias and I have mine, but I find it weird that he calls it the perfect laptop. A machine that has integrated gpu should achieve good battery life and thermals pretty easily. The real challenge is when you have a more powerful GPU and still achieve those things.
i just feel the same way... it would be better if it comes with a 28w-ULV cpu and Iris i-gpu like 655
Fred Costa Even with the cheaper price in the US, dell has been having lots of quality control issues.
Love how honest this guy is!
Hi Dave, thank you for great videos! This one further strengthened my wish to buy Dell XPS 2019 :)
Dave, I have a genuine question. I hope you see this. Would you recommend an older great premium Intel laptop like this over a 'budget' option that has newer AMD chips? My sister's a student and she needs it for school, so I wanna buy her one because she's just using an iPad at the moment. Thanks!
Love the little rust shoutout at 5:25
I couldn't imagine owning such a premium product...
Wonder Lamb thats pretty sad for you
what are you, a monk?
It is not premium - sent from my XPS 13
It's cheaper than the cheapest MacBook (not including 2017 MacBook air that should be removed by now)
Don't worry, it's overrated and overpriced. One of my worst purchases.
Dear laptop manufacturers
please add a dedicated switch on the side of the laptop that functions as an internal battery separatetor and a lot of people been asking this feature for a very long time especially on gaming laptops cause we don't use pc and long term gaming could damage the battery over time and a lot of people still plugged their laptops even if the battery is already full
Please laptop manufacturers, answer our prayers
In the dell bios, at least on my 2016 XPS, you can set a threshold to the battery life, so that it doesn't go above a certain battery charge percentage even when plugged in. This can really help preserve the battery
If you can use "Dell Power Manager" software, you can set it to "Primary AC Use" to supposedly extend battery lifespan. but again, it is Dell software, so you never know if it really works or has bugs...
That's overkill. Lenovo laptops have software that can stop charging at a specified threshold.
Hi dave.. Love your videos. Please make a video on best ultrabooks for students or best thin and light laptops for students
Depends on what the student will run on it.
hell yeah. so stoked for mines to come in
Wow. I am impressed with your presentation command. Keep it up!
Hey Dave...Any idea when the xps 15-2019 is going to be released?
In March with OLED-panels
Oleg Shirkovets but i thought it already has oled panels
@@ayaanjain8352 No, they were anonsed on Dell invent, but start of sell's is gonna be in March. Now they sell usual FHD and 4K IPS panels
In India? I doubt it.
All hail laptop lord
Gr8 video though
No dGPU, no bueno. Love 'em or hate 'em, Asus and Huawei manage to stuff MX chips into similar form factors. Huge improvement in productivity.
Nice! I had the 2015 model and was extremely reliable during my postgrad. Very portable, lightweight, battery lasted for hours, Ran CFD simulation, numerical analysis and 3D designing smoothly. Might consider this new model.
I own the Dell XPS 15 9550. The only problem with the XPS lineup is the quality control issues and drivers drama. If they fix these two things, it's a WINNER. Issues with XPS don't show during first impressions, they surface over time.
Do y’all think this is better than a surface book 2 or a MacBook Pro??? Idk what to invest in...looking for something for video editing and for college, any recommendations?
If you're in college and you need your laptop for video editing I would certainly not take the Surface Book 2. Although it's a great device, for your use and needs it's overpriced. The MacBook Pro's keyboard is a pain in the butt from what I've heard. A friend of mine had to get it replaced twice already. However Mac is great if you want a device where you can't do anything wrong with the settings. But if you're like me and you like to mess with the settings and you know what you're doing: go for Windows.
Other good options might be a Microsoft Surface Laptop, Lenovo ThinkPad or an Asus ZenBook. Alongside with the Dell XPS 13 and the MacBook Pro it really goes down to preferences. If you want to play games too, you might want to consider the Razerblade 15.
If I had to choose for a student laptop for video editing, I would go with either the XPS 13 or the Microsoft Surface Laptop 2.
oisin craninx thanks so much for your advice (: I actually went laptop shopping at Best Buy and they told me the laptop 2 wasn’t “powerful enough” for video editing, so I wasn’t sure
i cant bring myself to buy a laptop even though i want one till 10nm chips arrive or 7nm from AMD.
Same, Im waiting for the 10 nm chips or ARM processors from Macbooks.
@Louvre360 Fall 2019 at the earliest
What do 7nm and 10nm chips mean for the average consumer?
@@Elimbi1 should result in the biggest jump in CPU Performance and energy efficiency since Skylake (6xxx gen) in 2015. I would say core count will probably not increase for 13" Ultrabooks though, cooling 6 cores probably won't be possible in these chassis
@@Elimbi1 much better performance in a more power efficient and smaller chip.
Wow. That battery takes up half the space in the laptop. We definitely need to have more innovative in battery tech so we can fit more power on a smaller battery.
Samsung tried to achieve that with the note 7, look what happened
Superb review, thanks Dave!
How does this work with editing 4K in premiere pro? Also I hate these number modeling. Is the updated version of this the 7390?
Dave looks like an old man when he’s not filming in 5k
A 2K Skreen option woud be great =D
3:38 it used to be present on the old MacBook Pros, until 2012 that is! I even made a video about one
Nice comparison to last year's and how well the white palmrest has worn. Made it a lot easier in which finish to go with.
1st of excellent review, with that only one question, which model is the "Gigabyte gaming box", that you talked about in the video? also, do you think this can actually pick up a 2080RTX ?
"laptop perfected"
- keyboard isnt that great
- trackpad isnt that great
- page up page down sucks
- "pain in the butt"
dude.
Meh... It's great for me.
I think small track pad is the biggest issue. These windows laptops need to learn from the MacBook and just make their own perfect track pad.
Such a clickbait title. Disliked
Wtf? Where did you get that from?
for real. said the GPU was trash too lol. starting to wonder about these reviews.
I like to see things that I can't buy
Very relatable indeed 🤣
Omg same 😂
Hi Dave. Great video, as always. Any chance you could do a comparative review between Lenovo extreme 1 and the Dell XPS 15? Thanks a lot and greetings from Spain.
I'm getting this computer soon. I'm sooooo excited!!
Hi Dave, I'm looking for a laptop with the following features:
- Physical, clickable mouse buttons on the TouchPad
- High performance: at least 32 GB RAM
- 15" 4K screen and good speakers
- Built-in SD card reader
- Very good battery life
- Decent gaming performance
- Must be decently portable
- Price doesn't matter
Most importantly:
- Good international warranty.
Just for context, I was using the Alienware 15 R2. I really like the new Alienware 15 (thin and light) but the lack of an SD card slot and clickable mouse buttons are deal breakers for me.
Looking forward to your (or anyone else's) recommendation.
I was about to buy the 2018 model but i will wait for the release in the Netherlands, thanks!
Surface Pro 6 : 1.069,00 € + 184,99 € keyboard
(i5-8250U, 128GB, 8GB RAM) + relatively "clean" software.
XPS 13 2019 9380 : 1.099,00 €
(i3-8145U, 128GB, 4GB RAM). + messy terrible software. terrible hardware like Killer Networking.
Dell seems like a complete rip off!
Stay away from Dell if you want build quality or decent software.
@@zbridgjpxupzm Since I have 1500 to spend, I'd rather have the i5 Whiskey Lake version with a new processor, better keyboard and a bit of a bigger screen plus more storage for about the same price. I can always do a fresh reinstall of win10 and the hardware is fine if i can trust other reviews. Plus, what's wrong with the build quality of this laptop?
@@Luuk8320 I have had numerous Dell XPS laptops from 2014 onward in our company with the problems like, dead motherboard out of the blue, dead hard disk, dead LCD panel, dead power supply, unreliable ethernet (Killer Networking)....Nothing is wrong at first, but the fact is Dell uses the cheapest possible components and if the machine does not die prematurely, you are just lucky. Yes you can do a clean Windows install, but you are forced to install Dell's crapware if you want everything working. On the other hand I have never had such hardware & software problems with Surface Pro.
@@zbridgjpxupzm ah okay, I will look more into the surface then, ty

Thx Dave! Could you please make a new „Budget“ Gamining Laptop video? Maybe for around 800 bucks or so.
Would you recommend this laptop for video editing if your a content creator..?
Wish someone would answer this
i think one thing a lot of people aren't mentioning with the 9380 is that they changed the hinge. much easier to open with one hand than previous models
What are those cool lights you got in the background?

Should I get Razer Blade 15 Base Model ( 2018) or should I get Lenovo Legion Y740?
Thanks for your suggestion!
Great review and thank for comparing to the older mode!
Hey dave will you make a review on the new dell xps 13 2 in 1 7390, and the new dell xps 13 which both uses 10th generation intel processors?
Thats rust in the video!

Where did you bought those standing fluorescent light bulbs at your back? I want them!
Would you suggest this laptop for a college student? I only intend on running Google docs/slides, light steam gaming, and video chatting with friends and family. (My video/graphic design software is on my home PC) My family wants me to get a MacBook, but the MacOS is not for me.
A short and well composed video!!! perfectly executed...
The 2019 XPS 13 is Dave's favorite child
can you do a review of the lenovo X1 carbon?
ps, the reason the material turned more yellow on the older model is because the material reacted to sunlight.
Quinn Denver yes that would be awesome for review and comparison 🙄🙄🙄
I like Lenovo notebook keyboards the best, what about you guys?
SofaWolf yea that thing is awesome
Quinn Denver honestly not sure I saw Lenovo S940 which is amazing looking. I have MacBook Pro for personal (outdated one) from 2015 and almost out of storage. And I have t480s thinkpad for work. My job requires I am very current on both OS. So I am thinking upgrade my Mac when they release new ones if that’s anytime soon otherwise I’m stuck with there crap keyboards 😂 and get x1 extreme as my windows os. I know I could do parallel but to me that is not the same because of keyboard commands. And I like having Mac for creative personal and pc for just straight up daily work tasks. Sorry for babble. If I have to choose one to do all and could survive without my Apple specific programs I would get Lenovo hands down. I haven’t event had the t840s long and it is not top tier model but I love it
How are the Linux drivers for this 2019 model? Specifically running Linux Mint on this
Watching this on the XPS 13. This is such a nice laptop, the last laptop I owned was from like 2008. I do not have much to compare the laptop to but I love this thing. I feel like I should have waited for the new, upcoming XPS 13 2-in-1, but this was still an amazing buy. This was highly expensive but it feels worth it.
I like how you offer people to see difference between 4k and 1080 p through a 1080p vid, which is mostly played on phone screens
I used to have a petty poor impression of Dell laptops. But as the years go by, they just get better and better. Apple on the other hand, is the total opposite. :/
How? Apple has the best built laptops in the industry. For Dell they had nowhere but up to go apple was already at the top.

I really hope that the new Intel intergrated graphics next generation actually makes these devices usable for gaming or game design.
The bench mark leaks do look promising
Y u use integrated graphics for gaming? U know there is no way u can get low power consumption and high performance because u need power for performance, unless you want to break the physics law of the universe, which will require intel to work a little harder
@@jackli1662 I don't, I have a gtx 1070 in my desktop.
I'm saying I hope they are good because I'm planning on going to college for game design and that requires a decent graphics card or intergrated (Ryzen). And laptops with those are 1. Really expensive, and 2. Have shit battery life.

@@jackli1662 yeah, for a shitload of money.
Get back to me when win the lotto
@Steve Simons hard to do game design as a class, if your laptop can't do the designing.
nose cam is a deal breaker. seriously, you DON'T want to have an online interview (through skype call or whatever) with a nose cam. good they fixed it and added a white finishing. lovely!
currently considering getting this instead of macbook air. unless apple releases something satisfying later this year...
If you're interested in buying this laptop, read my experience with it's 3 year old parent.
Short review of Dell XPS 13 (9360, 2016) after every day usage for the last 3 years. The laptop is insane, the performance I have today is the same I had the first day. Touchpad is fantastic, keyboard is like new (I type a lot of text and not even a single millimeter of any letter label is missing). Screen is brilliant (Full HD). Fan does turn on sometimes but only when windows forces updating. I still do receive regular driver updates trough Dell Update software which is great! Unfortunately, and in the end that is expected, the battery today has max capacity of 50% it had the first day, which is still good (you can work for few hours or watch movies).
So considering my experience with the model I bought 3 years ago, if I'm looking for a Windows laptop, I would definitely buy newest XPS. It just can't be any better than this.
The most beautiful laptop till now!! Please keep a giveaway!!!
How about coil whine? Every review of XPS 13 is stellar but nobody mentions, that the forums are plastered with people complaining, that their XPS 13 gives off an annoying whine when under load.
I know people with an XPS. Try it on theirs. There's a whine on mine but so much better than the serious noises from other computers.
No Matebook X Pro comparison? I honestly think that's the ultralight to beat in 2018 & 2019 so far.
A bit too heavy.
For people that wanna know the price is *1,789,-*
Who else is crying in a corner? Well, i am.

@@d3exter864 I still prefer a little ticker,for me,I am waiting for sth with ood perfomance and great battery,so clevo N350tw/n350TV, with 8700T 35W(but i believe 65W cpu like 8700,9600K,with delid+undervolt+repaste could be easily used in that chassis as well). it has 62 & 93WH battery options. it has thunderbolt3 and there is no gpu to suck the battery life out of it... it's for now the only device with such capability for productive cpu-hungry apps &enthusiastics.maybe this year,intel also release 9700t(hopefully) which support the same 1151 socket(to rival the amd ryzen support for 3 generation already) and we could get higher performance altogether.
wow, that xps line looks really sharp!
Hi Dave, do you think it is better than Lenovo X1? How about the keyboard?
