The new MacBook Pro 15 is just slightly faster than the MBP 15 2017 and clearly beaten by the XPS 15

The new MacBook Pro 15 is just slightly faster than the MBP 15 2017 and clearly beaten by the XPS 15

50% more cores for 13 % more performance. We were eager to find out how the new Apple MacBook Pro 15 handles the new hexa-core processors. Not very well after our initial tests, because the performance advantage under sustained workloads is small compared to the previous model, despite the additional CPU cores.

The MateBook X Pro ships with a Thunderbolt 3 port not unlike many newer Ultrabooks and gaming laptops. What Huawei isn't telling you, however, is that the port appears to offer just half the PCIe lanes for half the theoretical transfer rate of an otherwise regular Thunderbolt 3 connection.

Microsoft could introduce Touchless Input in future Surface devices

While Appe's latest handheld devices include pseudo-touchless capabilities via the TrueDepth 3D camera system, it still requires touch sensors for the display itself. Microsoft's newly approved patent does away with the display sensors and relies only on depth map imaging to calculate the cursor position and hand gestures.

The Razer Blade 15 GTX 1060 runs cooler, quieter, and longer than its GTX 1070 version

The $1900 USD Blade 15 GTX 1060 configuration is both slower and cheaper than the Blade 15 GTX 1070 and yet it brings several benefits not available on the more powerful SKU. Our tests reveal that the 60 to 70 W GTX 1060 Max-Q option is less demanding than the 80 to 90 W GTX 1070 Max-Q for noticeably cooler core temperatures and longer battery life.

The Dell XPS 13 9370's screen is highly reflective.

Exclusive | Dell will bring back the matte display option in the XPS 13 9380, HDR panel a possibility as well

Lack of a matte display option was one of the pain points of the Dell XPS 13 9370, making it a tad difficult to use under direct light or outdoors. We had a chance to speak to some panel manufacturers during Computex 2018 and luckily, they tell us that the upcoming XPS 13 9380 will feature a matte display option. Also, based on the information thus far, we get to speculate that HDR panels are a likely possibility in the upcoming XPS lineup.
