Dell XPS 12 (2015)

The last machine released as the Dell XPS 12 featured a wacky, horizontally spinning screen as a solution to the convertible laptop/tablet hybrid conundrum. With this latest iteration, however, Dell has completely thrown out that idea and gone with a...

Dell XPS 12

Potent speakers ; Spectacular display ; Tactile keyboard

Limited 'lapability' ; Short battery life

The Dell XPS 12 isn't the most versatile or longest-lasting Windows 10 tablet, but it has a sharp display and the best keyboard of any 2-in-1 laptop.

Dell XPS 12 hands-on: 4K screen 2-in-1 takes on Surface Pro 4, coming 2016

When we think of Dell's XPS line we think laptops. But that's all about to change with the introduction of the 2016 Dell XPS 12 - a 2-in-1 tablet with keyboard dock that's feature-packed and looks set to take on the Microsoft Surface Pro 4. We got to...

4K screen, 12.5-inch screen in 11-inch form factor, slim and portable design, backlit keyboard dock, ample Intel Core M power

Dell XPS 12 review (hands on): Hybrid tops Dell's new range

Dell's answer to the Surface Pro is here, but it doesn't look very impressive

These are both laptops aimed at the mobile power user, so prices aren’t going to be cheap. The 13in XPS starts at £849 inc VAT for the most basic specification, while the XPS 15 starts at £1,099. However, be aware that these prices are for the laptop...

Dell XPS 12 2-in-1 review: A Surface Pro 4 alternative for the enterprise buyer

After owning both the first Surface Pro and the Surface Pro 3, I never thought I would consider any other device for my home office. Dell has shown me that there are other viable alternatives.

Solid hardware construction ; Excellent display ; Clear, loud stereo speakers ; Amazing hardware keyboard options ; USB Type-C used for charging

Battery life could be better ; Included keyboard option has single angle mount ; Some issues with rotation consistency ; Pre-loaded bloatware

Total Disappointment

My Dell XPS 12 has been returned twice and will probably be going back a third time soon. First two times were because the power button failed. Couldn't even turn the darn thing on. Then it refuses to run Chrome. You can install and log on but it...
