Dell XPS 13 9380 ultrabook unboxing and first look
Source: Hitech Century English Archive.org version
For RM8,369, Dell has thrown in almost everything except the kitchen sink for their most powerful variant of the XPS 13 as you get a 13.3-inch InfinityEdge 4K UHD touch screen, an 8th generation Intel Core i7-8565U processor, 16GB RAM, Intel UHD Graphics 620 and a generously sized 512GB M.2 PCIE NVME SSD. These are the specifications available in our test unit which were impressive indeed. Stay tuned for the full review later! To check out the Dell XPS 13 9380, swing by Dell’s official website here.

Dell XPS 13 9380 review – high-level business notebook
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
Additionally, the device has a great input device (its keyboard has a backlight), charges with a Type-C connector and utilizes a blazing fast fingerprint scanner. However, one of the most annoying things about it is the lack of non-Type-C USB connectors, meaning you’ll need an adapter for sure. Either way, if you need a fresh and cheaper option to this laptop, check the ZenBook 13 UX333 or the Lenovo Ideapad 730S.

Dell XPS 13 9380 2019 – what to expect, reviews, what’s changed from the XPS 9370
Source: Ultrabook Review English Archive.org version
These should cover most potential issues. Hopefully, the XPS 9380 won’t suffer from all of them, but coil whine, rattling fans, hot bottoms and performance hiccups, those are probably still on the menu. Luckily, given the popularity of this series, you will find a lot of support on Reddit and forums, Google is your friend. For now, this is what you should expect from the 2018 Dell XPS 13 9380. The comments section is open for your feedback and questions though, and stay tuned for a proper review in the months to come.

80% Dell XPS 13 9380 (2019) review: Running in place
Source: It Pro English Archive.org version
With no real improvements over its predecessor, Dell’s latest XPS 13 feels like more of a mid-generation revision than a genuine update. Not a disappointment, certainly, but you might as well go with last year’s model.

93% Dell XPS 13 review: A perfect ultraportable
Source: Engadget English Archive.org version
Dell’s XPS 13 is still one of the best Windows ultraportables around. Its design is better than ever, it has fantastically bright Dolby Vision HDR screens and Dell has finally returned the webcam to the proper position. There aren’t many downsides -- unless you’re looking for a bit of gaming performance.

The Dell XPS 13 was already one of the best ultrabooks you can buy, and with slight tweaks it’s only got better in 2019. The webcam has been shifted to its traditional place, the upgrade to a Whiskey Lake processor has improved performance and battery life and apparent calibrations to the display has widened its sRGB colour gamut coverage.

Source: Hardware Zone English Archive.org version
So in short, the latest XPS 13 is faster, better designed, has a longer battery, and is cheaper too. If that’s not progress, I don’t know what is. As such, the new Dell XPS 13 is an easy recommendation if your priority is for a compact and powerful ultraportable in a traditional notebook form factor.

The Dell XPS 13 finally solves its nose-cam problem
Source: CNet English Archive.org version
I had to look long and hard to find anything I didn't like about the 2019 Dell XPS 13. Pressed to come up with a list, I'd say the woven glass fiber palm rest doesn't look or feel as high-end as it should. The white backlight shining through white keys (on the white and rose gold versions) sometimes makes it harder to see the keys, not easier. And in order to get a touchscreen model, you have to trade up to a 4K display, which is more expensive and not as battery-friendly.

The webcam is back at the top. But is that all for the 2019 XPS 13 from Dell? Not at all, because the dual-fan solution ensures good – although not stable – performance utilization we rarely see among such slim laptops. Update: Review is complete.

This could be the best laptop we’ll see all year, but it comes at a price – especially if you want the Alpine White version, which isn’t available for the cheapest configurations. It retains everything we liked about the previous XPS 13, fixes most of the things we didn’t like and offers significantly improved performance and an optional 4K display.

Dell has made just about every possible improvement to the XPS 13 for 2019. The webcam is in its rightful position and no worse in quality considering the thin space they had to squeeze it in. The more evident improvement here, however, is the battery life, which sees a significant improvement. This all happened while everything else about the laptop has kept its storied, impressive quality, from the chassis form factor to the power profile of its internal components. This is the same laptop as last year, only slightly improved. When compared to the current best laptops of 2019, however, the XPS 13 does somewhat struggle to compete in terms of value. Simply put, there is certainly better hardware crammed in a laptop for similar price points, which means it’s not quite the ‘Best in Class’ laptop for 2019. However, it must be said that the Dell XPS 13 is still among the best laptops in the world, and that’s worth a lot.

Dell XPS 13 (2019) Review
Source: Yugatech English Archive.org version
All in all, the XPS 13 2019 is an excellent refresh of the previous version. It improved a couple of aspects, such as the webcam placement and a newer processor. The screen is visually pleasing with its thin bezels and vibrant colors, the audio quality is excellent, and working on it is a breeze. Our only qualms about It is that it has a slightly disappointing battery life — well, when it comes to the 4K model, it has a load of bloatware in it, and let’s face it, the XPS 13 has a pretty hefty price tag that begins at PHP 109,980. There may be other laptops out there that have similar aspects and perhaps come at a lower price but do consider the Dell XPS 13 (2019) when you’re on the lookout for a new daily laptop.

The Dell XPS 13 was already a great laptop and Dell has made some welcome improvements to remain our favorite ultraportable overall. The addition of Intel Whiskey Lake cements the XPS 13's status as a mobile powerhouse. And when you're not crunching the numbers, that vivacious 4K display is perfect for watching video. We especially like the itty-bitty webcam, killing the nosecam forever.

90% Dell XPS 13 (2019) review: The webcam is finally on top
Source: Neowin English Archive.org version
The Dell XPS 13 is a great all-around clamshell laptop, with a beautiful design and a small footprint. My biggest complaints are that there's no IR camera - particularly that Dell gave us facial recognition and then took it away - and there's no USB Type-A. Most consumer laptops still keep at least one USB Type-A port, and this one does not.

85% Dell XPS 13 (2019) review: the right stuff, refined

The Dell XPS 13 is designed for actual user needs, thoughtfully addressing the practical things you worry about when using a laptop. It seems a little weird to gush about the placement of the webcam or the power brick or even glare on a screen, but those are real hassles and it feels nice to have a laptop quietly solve them.

80% Dell XPS 13 9380 review: The best little laptop fixes its biggest problem
Source: PC World English Archive.org version
Our first test is Maxon’s Cinebench R15. It’s a free benchmark based on Maxon’s older Cinema4D rendering engine. The test is multi-threaded and probably isn’t what most XPS 13 9380 users will run, but it’s still a fair representation of what you’re likely to see from the laptop and CPU in shorter multi-threaded workloads. Those occasional multi-threaded tasks in Excel or that rare multi-threaded Adobe Photoshop filter would likely see similar performance bumps.

Dell XPS 13 9380 review: The best little laptop fixes its biggest problem
Source: Good Gear Guide English Archive.org version
Most will dismiss the Dell XPS 13 9380 as a “meh” update. We’d tend to agree, as the CPU update offers a fairly small (albeit real) performance bump. The problem with that narrative is it ignores the position of the strength the XPS 13 comes from. The previous model reigned as most everyone’s top ultrathin laptop, including our own—until you got to the webcam placement. By taking that criticism away, the already-great Dell XPS 13 9380 is a better laptop.

Dell XPS 13 (9380) 2019 Review: So Close To Perfection
Source: Hot Hardware English Archive.org version
The new Dell XPS 13 (9380) is fast, quiet, and beautiful. It also commands a premium, as configured for our review of course. It retails for $2,449.99 when choosing the same hardware options as our review model, putting it out of reach for value-conscious buyers. However, you can knock that price down closer to $2,000 by slashing the storage in half (to 512GB) and going with Windows 10 Home instead of Pro. Pricing for the series starts at $899.99 for an FHD config (non-touch with 8th Gen Core i3 and less storage and RAM), so you can still bring a new model home on a tighter budget as well, just obviously with less bells and whistles.

Comment

Dell: Dell is a U.S. manufacturer (based in Texas) of computer hardware founded in 1984 and is one of the largest international manufacturers in terms of both market share and notebook models. Its product line includes desktops, notebooks, storage systems, monitors, servers, printers, consumer electronics and peripherals. Dell offers laptops that are suitable for various applications, such as business laptops, gaming laptops, ultra portables and workstations. Dell's business laptops from the Latitude and Precision series are an option for professional users and businesses.

In 2023, Dell had an approximate 17% market share of global PC sales, ranking #3 after Lenovo and HP.

For gaming enthusiasts, Dell's Alienware brand is for gaming notebooks.


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

Intel UHD Graphics 620: Integrated GPU (GT2, 24 EUs) found on some Kaby-Lake-Refresh CPU models (15 W ULV series). Technically identical to the previous Kaby-Lake GPU called HD Graphics 620.

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


Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  

i7-8565U: Whiskey Lake based low power quad-core processor (technically identical to Kaby Lake but produced in a further improved 14nm++ process). The four cores are clocked between 1.8 and 4.6 GHz (Turbo Boost) and support HyperThreading.

Intel Core i5:

i5-8265U: Whiskey Lake based low power quad-core processor (technically identical to Kaby Lake but produced in a further improved 14nm++ process). The four cores are clocked between 1.6 and 3.9 GHz (Turbo Boost) and support HyperThreading.

Intel Core i3:

i3-8145U: Whiskey Lake based low power dual-core processor (technically identical to Kaby Lake but produced in a further improved 14nm++ process). The two cores are clocked between 2.1 and 3.9 GHz (Turbo Boost) and support HyperThreading.

89.13%: There are not very many models that are rated better. Most of the assessments are in percentage ranges below that. The tested product is not considered perfect, but the sources give a clear purchase recommendation.
