That new inspiron looks like it would be a fair bit faster. Better processor and a graphics card.
It's not that surprising though as part of what you're paying for with the XPS is it being super-slim and compact. The inspiron is nice enough (I'm writing this on a 13" one) but not the same class. Generally the bigger you go the more powerful you get for similar money as they're not so hamstrung by cooling and power issues.

I've heard in some reviews that 4k on a small screen like that isn't worth it over 1080p or 1440p. I think it drains the battery faster than a 1080p version with the same spec otherwise.

Coming back to laptops. I have to get one now, my surface is shitting itself.
I was thinking xps 13 but I cant see the point in getting the 'new' one.
I want to be able to run davinci resolve to edit video, so was thinking 1tb with 16gb ram. I would like 4k but maybe dint need it.
Would the new inspiron be faster than the 'ild' xps. It's a bit of a mind field!
