When Dell released 2014's XPS 13, it claimed it was the "smallest 13in laptop on the planet", so Dell had plenty to live up to when it released 2015's model. Looking almost identical to the version it superseded, this XPS 13 maintains the original's sleek...
The new XPS 13 might be more of a refresh than a complete overhaul, but the upgraded components and the addition of Thunderbolt 3 bring it right up to date. It remains visually stunning, and that gorgeous display means it's still one of the most portable...
