Reviews for the Dell Pro 13 Premium PA13250

90% Dell Pro 13 Premium review: The almost perfect business laptop | Notebookcheck
We're seizing the opportunity to review the 13-inch business laptop in Dell's product line. Aimed at demanding business users and designed to appeal to entrepreneurs with its modern ports, the Dell Pro 13 Premium has a sturdy yet lightweight magnesium chassis, AI and also enjoys very long battery runtimes. Update: SSD re-tested resulting in better performance values.

Overall, I believe when IT teams start issuing these Dell Pro Premium models, users are going to actually love what they’re being given. It’s a bold new look that finally throws out the boring look of its predecessor and opts for something far more appealing. But pleasing the end user is only half the battle, as the other half is security, stability, and manageability by IT, and the Dell Pro 13 Premium hits most of these points. This review will be similar to my Dell Pro 14 review, as these are just about the same thing aside from the display and size. That’s actually one of the largest differences. The 14 I reviewed had the tandem-OLED display, while this one has an IPS display. So if you’re concerned about burn-in and prefer the IPS display, this one might be for you.

80% Dell Pro 13 Premium review: The very essence of a compact productivity laptop
Source: Expert Reviews English
For the home user, the biggest, nay, only issue with the new Dell Pro 13 Premium is the price. The cheapest version of the Dell Pro 13 Premium you should consider is the Core Ultra 236V (16GB RAM) with a 512GB SSD and the 400cd/m2 Full HD display, and that will set you back just under £1,950. Given the 2.5K screen only increases the price to £1,993, you should certainly tick that box, but that still doesn’t give you a display to match the Apple, Asus or Lenovo competition in terms of colour output or accuracy. Even the much-maligned Dell XPS 13 can be had with a 2.8K OLED touchscreen for £1,650. Everything else about the Dell Pro 13 Premium is bang on the money: It’s powerful, the speakers are great, it’s smart, well made and delivers impressive battery life.

70% The new Dell Pro 13 is a laptop for those who wear suits not Hawaiian shirts – but it's nippy and lasts all day

Professional laptops come in all kinds of colours, as long as they’re black and grey, and Dell has provided us with an example of the finest grey. It’s nicely made, apart from the keyboard which is going to take a lot of getting used to, and provides respectable CPU performance in office and collaboration apps. Its relatively low-performance screen, along with its reliance on integrated graphics processing, means that this is destined for the kind of office that has more Excel and less InDesign, however.

Intel Arc 140V: A pretty fast integrated graphics adapter that higher-end Intel Lunar Lake family processors employ. This is a direct successor to the Arc 8; it can drive three SUHD 4320p monitors simultaneously via HDMI 2.1, eDP 1.5 and DP 2.1. With the 140V, all 2023 and 2024 games are playable at 1080p on low graphics settings.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


Core Ultra 7 268V: A higher-end Lunar Lake family processor. It sports 4 new Skymont E-cores and 4 new Lion Cove P-cores running at up to 3.7 GHz and 5.0 GHz respectively, along with the new Arc 140V iGPU and 32 GB of on-package LPDDR5x-8533 RAM. It should be about as fast as the Core Ultra 7 165U and Core i7-1360P in multi-threaded workloads and it eats up to 37 W when under short-term workloads.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
