Excellent build quality, Nice keyboard, Solid performance as configured
Glossy screen with glossy protective layer, Only two USB ports, Battery life okay but not great, A little too expensive for what you get
The Dell Studio XPS 13 is a solid notebook that combines attractive style and performance in one easy-to-carry package. The Nvidia Hybrid SLI graphics do a fantastic job of balancing battery life and performance, and the available Core 2 Duo processors ha...
Stylish design, Bright display with good viewing angles, Comfortable, backlit keyboard, Strong performance, Intuitive facial recognition software, HDMI and DisplayPort connections
Relatively short battery life, Runs warm, Only two USB ports, Small touchpad
With a leather strip on the lid and switchable graphics, the $1,354 Dell Studio XPS 13 looks and feels like a luxury machine. However, with less than 3 hours of battery life, it’s not for highly mobile users; it’s a better choice for people wh...
Sharp design with luxury accents; optional Hybrid SLI graphics delivers usable 3D gaming abilities; above-average productivity performance; superb backlit keyboard; available SSD options
Small touch pad; no Blu-ray option
The Dell Studio XPS 13 improves on its predecessor in every way and includes Nvidia’s Hybrid SLI dual-graphics solution for better 3D performance than most 13-inch notebooks. And it looks great, too. ...

Upscale design with leather trim, backlit keyboard, and edge-to-edge screen glass.
Bulky for a 13-inch laptop; weak battery life.
Dells SX13-163B (a retail version of the upscale 13-inch Studio XPS model) offers a solid set of components, but looks and feels clunky compared with other 13-inch laptops.

‘Desktop replacement’ used to be a euphemism for a noisy and heavy laptop. Not so with the Studio XPS 13. It’s as powerful as many desktops, yet compact enough to carry almost anywhere. To expand its modest display it can be plugged into any screen th...

Partly uneven gaps, Warranty extension costs much, Reflecting Display, so, problems outdoors, Some parts of the case get very hot
The Dell Studio XPS 13 has a beautifully illuminated keyboard and this by default for no extra costs. However, the keyboard is not only nice to look at, it is also fit for intensive typing.The performance is appropriate for a 13-inch model. Especially, th...
Skjerm med svært god kontrast og lysstyrke, Høy kontorytelse, Uvanlig høy spillytelse for størrelsen, Kurant batteritid, Godt tasteoppsett, Mange tilkoblingsmuligheter
Mye varme, Bare 2 USBporter, Liten touchpad
Dell Studio XPS 13 er et tydelig kompromiss mellom ytelse og portabilitet. Den har fått noe større muskler enn forgjengeren M1330, men veier også noe mer med sine 2,2 kg som kanskje er litt i overkant for en 13,3-tommer. Maskinen har et lek...
Stilig design. God ytelse. God skjerm. Hdmi, diplayport og eSATA. Opplyst tastatur. På-stedet-service.
Kun to usb-porter. Blir varm under. Viftestøy. Vibrasjoner. Tung til å være 13-tommer.
Vi opplevde i starten noen stabilitetsproblemer med maskinen, blant annet knyttet til driverne til lydkontrolleren – problemet lot seg løse med å ikke ha driveren installert og heller bruke driveren i Windows. Vi opplevde også enkelte problemer i fo...
