Apple's next Macs will finally check every box

Let's also not forget the first 7 years of the XPS 13, it had that ridiculous webcam around the bottom of the screen pointing upwards like a nostril cam.

We replace all laptops with Framework laptops - A one year review

Our 1000 Dell XPS 13 + with their failure rate of 14% in the first 3 months and a further 6% in the next 9 months begs to differ. We literally had a Dell tech in our office more than our actual IT staff. Just a total poo storm. Dell offered us a partial refund to try and keep our business going forw

Is there a reason why we dont have a dual port option?

Given that the FW13 has 4 flexible ports (and FW16 even 6) I don't see much point. USB-A is becoming obsolete. A lot of peripherals are Bluetooth connected anyway. I was mostly fine with the just 2 USB-C ports of a XPS-13 before. The 4 interchangeable ones in FW13 are already luxury. Especially as I

Dell laptop idling just below 3 watts on Pop!_OS with zero tuning

Battery life is mostly a platform property. You need to get all your ducks in a row from the low-level hardware all the way to applications. Hardware design choices by the manufacturer matter, and firmware is important too. In the end, with some laptops you get awesome power efficiency under Linux o

Brand new XPS 16, nowhere near 30 hours of battery life they claim

Wipe it, and install Windows 11 IoT LTSC. Never use the image that comes with the laptop. I’ve got the current XPS 13 9350 and this easily lasts me multiple days before I have to charge. In a day, I can keep going with ease.

Windows on Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme is finally what Arm laptops should have been

I have briefly tried a Lunar Lake laptop (Dell XPS 13) and it did not feel as snappy for my workflow. PTL laptops are too expensive right now for what they offer.

I will never be able to comprehend why Apple did this.

I used to have a Dell Xps 13 with a camera at the bottom. It was weird cause it always seems like you're looking somewhere else.

Looks like Software Optimization is back on the menu boys!

I personally question how much software optimisation can be done to be honest. One of the biggest resource hogs on my machine right now is hilariously Spotify, at a whopping 1.8G of RAM split over 9 processes. Then I've got Discord with 8 processes at 1.7GB. That's 3.5G, or nearly half the RAM gone
