I can’t bear using my MacBook Air anymore because the aging display in it just feels blurry and old at this point. I’ve ventured back to other Windows laptops like Lenovo’s Yoga 900 and they look old and out of touch by comparison. It’s like the first time you switched from 3G to LTE: you never want to go back. But what gets you is just how tiny the bezels around the screen are.

The XPS 13 goes back to basics and gets it rightĭell’s non-touch model comes with a 13.3-inch 1080p display. I’ve been using the new Dell XPS 13 for the past couple of weeks, and - again - I’m convinced it’s the best Windows laptop out there. The ideas were all there, but it was not a polished experience.īut now, Dell has refreshed the XPS 13 again with some minor improvements that focus on exactly the things that bothered me with the first one: battery life, performance, and the trackpad.
Like most Windows laptops, it had trackpad issues, the speed wasn’t quite what it should have been, and Dell’s claim of 11 hours battery life didn’t pan out. I switched to that early 2015 model as my main machine six months ago, but a few nagging, real problems made it frustrating. It was also the first Windows laptop that has come close to the quality and reliability of a MacBook Air. It was smaller than a MacBook Air, thanks to a beautiful 13.3-inch edge-to-edge display. It’s the new Dell XPS 13.ĭell has been working at perfecting the XPS 13 for a while, including an overhauled version it introduced early this year. It’s a laptop that doesn’t resort to origami touchscreen gimmicks or feel like it’s cloning the MacBook yet again. After that frustrating three-year search, I’ve finally found the best Windows laptop. But running Windows on an Apple laptop isn’t ideal, if only because the keyboard is laid out differently. For much of that time, I reluctantly opted for the MacBook Air simply because there weren’t better, Windows-native options.

I’ve been searching for the perfect Windows laptop ever since Windows 8 was released, three years ago.
