Today Dell is launching the 2022 revision of its XPS 13 to include Intel\u2019s latest 12th-gen Alder Lake CPUs<\/a> that add more cores and a hybrid architecture, while saying the new version is its thinnest and lightest 13-inch XPS ever. The new laptop is 13.9mm thick (0.55-inches) and weighs as little as 2.59 lbs, compared to its predecessor\u2019s 14.80 mm (0.58-inches) and 2.64 lb starting weight for a non-touchscreen model. The new XPS 13 is available starting today in the US and Canada, starting at $999<\/a> with Windows 11 or $949 for an Ubuntu 20.04-equipped Developer Edition.<\/p>\n

The flagship XPS 13 has gone from previewing the future of laptops<\/a> when Dell introduced the InfinityEdge design with thin bezels in 2015, to kind of stale<\/a> a few years later, and now, good enough to earn our review calling the last iteration \u201ceverything a Windows laptop should be\u201d on its way to placements in multiple \u201cBest PC laptops\u201d lists.<\/p>\n

To avoid accusations the line is becoming stale again, Dell is splitting wilder options out with the XPS 13 Plus<\/a> that kicked off the year featuring a touch bar, flush keyboard, and slightly more powerful P-Series CPU options, as well as a new 2022 XPS 13 2-in-1 announced today<\/a> that replaces the old thin and foldable design with a tablet + folio keyboard case.<\/p>\n

On the outside, the new 9315 model has a similar look to the 11th-gen CPU-powered 9310 that debuted in 2020 before adding an OLED display option last year<\/a>, but the differences should show up as soon as you open it. <\/p>\n

Dell says it \u201cremoved superfluous steps, reduced finishes and materials\u201d on the new laptop that pulls back on contrasting interior to highlight the \u201ccurated and premium\u201d CNC machined aluminum that\u2019s now the star of the show both inside and out. It\u2019s a look that\u2019s familiar, but quite clean in either the sky (grey) or umber (brown) tinted aluminum finish, and hopefully, it maintains the sturdy design plus solid keyboard and trackpad we lauded in 2020. Other touches like the fingerprint sensor \/ power button and Thunderbolt 4 ports on either side remain unchanged, but there\u2019s no headphone jack on the laptop this year.<\/p>\n
