About the Product

Experience technology at its very best. Refined craftsmanship meets unquestionable power for a machine that does more than meet expectations – it transcends them. With the latest hardware and unbelievable battery life, this laptop excels at every turn, elegantly sliding into just the mode you need.

The virtually borderless InfinityEdge display maximizes screen space by squeezing a 13-inch display in an 11-inch frame. With a bezel only 5.2 mm thin, starting at only 2.7 pounds and measuring a super slim 9-15 mm, the XPS 13 is exceptionally thin and light.

What customers say about "Processor"

Dell XPS 13 (9360-3591SLV) InfinityEdge Display, 7th Generation Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, Silver

This computer is fast and capable especially with the i7u processor with hyperthreading. It can do pretty much anything you want and fast!
Best laptop I have owned. Better suited for productivity than a surface pro 4 or a Macbook pro 13.
The I7 Gen 7 processor is advertised anywhere from 2.9-3.5GHz. Windows System information tells me it is actually 2.7GHZ. This is screaming fast!
These laptops are very well built and are loaded with a powerful processor and enough RAM to handle almost anything. I've been using one of these systems and absolutely love it.
It's lightweight, extremely fast and handles anything I throw at it.
Occasionally gets a bit hot

What customers say about "Memory"

Dell XPS 13 (9360-3591SLV) InfinityEdge Display, 7th Generation Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, Silver

The laptop takes 14 seconds from the time you hit the “On” button until you can start working. This is due to Windows 10 and a Toshiba Solid State Drive. The drive has 512 GB of storage – plenty for a laptop!
The 16 GB of memory was advertised as 1866 GHz, but is reported as 2133GHz. This is fairly meaningless, however – the amount of RAM is far more important – and 16 GB is plenty to do anything you could want to do with a computer.
I was worried from the comments on the computer with its issues but assumed if I got i7 and best ram that there wouldn't be any issues. By the second week the computer couldn't even open without crashing and I was undable to do anything. Sent it back with no issues and Amazon did a great job

What customers say about "Features"

Dell XPS 13 (9360-3591SLV) InfinityEdge Display, 7th Generation Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, Silver

Windows 10 is a great operating system. Those who complain about it just simply don't like change and will complain about MacOS Sierra as well. There are significant performance improvements in Windows 10 which bring startup speeds to less than 10 seconds from a complete shut down.
The small bezels make the laptop's screen look much bigger than 12.5" and is aesthetically pleasing
The battery can last up to 14 hours which is amazing if you don't want to bring the charger around
The battery takes less than an hour and a half to fully charge
The quality of pictures is fantastic, great for movies/videos
Camera is on the bottom left of the display
No fingerprint sensor

What customers say about "Connectivity"

Dell XPS 13 (9360-3591SLV) InfinityEdge Display, 7th Generation Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, Silver

Has all ports for normal productivity and beats in price all the new refreshed Macbook pro's.
I am glad I purchased last year's model, as the extra USB port and the standard-sized SD card slot are pretty nice bonuses.
NOTE THAT THE SSD PORT ONLY SUPPORTS SATA (so if you want to buy 128gb and upgrade the ssd, make sure you have a sata ssd)
They went with a lightening port for HDMI instead of a regular HDMI port so you have to use an adapter for HDMI output, which is intermittent at best, or buy a lightening to HDMI cable
