If the changes brought to the Dell XPS 13 earlier this year intrigued you, you may be even more excited for the XPS 13 two-in-one. Dell updated its flagship convertible even more than it updated its laptop. The company changed up the two-in-one's screen, hinge, keyboard, and internalsâincluding new Ice Lake processors.
A lot of laptop diehards are out there, but the improved XPS 13 two-in-one may convince some of them to embrace a more flexible life. However, the XPS 13 two-in-one has to compete with devices like HP's Spectre x360 13 and Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Yoga. And when pitted against the others, Dell's machine may not satisfy every user's needs.

Dell XPS 13 7390 2-in-1
Since the XPS 13 is our current favorite Windows Ultrabook, I was not surprised to find that the two-in-one version has the same stellar build quality. Its CNC aluminum chassis weighs 2.9 pounds, and our review unit's white fiberglass interior complemented its silver edges nicely. There's little to no flex to this laptop, so while it's not a MIL-SPEC certified machine, it should be able to hold its own in your bag surrounded by all your other essentials.
