XPS 13

Dell XPS 13 is a competitor to the MacBook Neo in the US and a competitor to the MacBook Air globally

Looking at the new price of the M5 MBA and MBP, wow, the neo is even more of a bargain, even with the new price. I think it was inevitable, given the current ram crisis, there is just no way manufacturers can swallow such huge rises to their BOM for these laptops. Apple held out for longer than most

I don’t think you need to spend that much for your particular usecase. You could get a thinkpad t490s with 16gb ram for 40-50k. It supports windows 11, its very reliable and compact and should give battery life of atleast 4-5 hours. If you really wanna spend 150k, then you can look at xps 13.

I've had Ubuntu on my XPS 13 since 2018

New xps 13 should be around 1L

dell's battery whitelisting is frustrating - a bios update probably flagged your older battery as 'non genuine'. before buying another, try resetting the bios to defaults and unplugging the battery for 30 mins. if that fails, this third party battery works on my 9310 and bypasses the whitelist detec

That OLED has 3x more pixels than IPS. Screen needs more power and GPU needs to work harder even in idle. Actually that IPS uses a different CPU: i7-1165G7. When comparing like-for-like CPUs, the OLED has fewer pixels. Laptop & CPU Screen Battery life XPS 13 9310, i7-1185G7 3456x2160, OLED 6.5 hours

Absolutely not the case here in Japan. The MB Neo 8/512 is ¥137,800..... the XPS 13 8/512 is ¥154,800 or about ¥188,000 for 16/512.... and the cheapest MB Air you can get is is the 16/512 option for ¥224,800. Why are you still making shit up? Stop it.
