Dell has announced a significant update to its PC lineup by reintroducing the iconic XPS brand that was discontinued a year ago. Responding to criticism from technology experts and customers, Dell acknowledged its mistake and promised an enhanced XPS experience. The latest Windows 11 laptops feature a fresh design, premium materials like aluminium and Gorilla Glass 3 for durability, and a redesigned keyboard and touchpad for improved functionality and portability.
The new XPS 14 and XPS 16 models are the thinnest laptops from Dell yet, measuring just 14.6mm, thanks in part to a slim 4K webcam. Enhanced by Intel’s latest Ultra processors, these laptops offer faster speeds, better graphics performance, and increased efficiency. The improved thermal system ensures optimal performance even during heavy usage.
Intel Arc graphics with 12 cores provide a 50% performance boost over previous generations. Battery life is impressive, with high-density 900ED cells offering up to 27 hours of usage on a single charge. Additional features include edge-to-edge touch displays, Dolby Atmos speakers, and a variety of ports for connectivity.
Unveiling the XPS 14 and XPS 16 at CES 2026, Dell emphasized their commitment to premium laptops with striking design, powerful performance, stunning displays, and long-lasting battery life. The new XPS models aim to deliver a compact yet high-performance device for users on the go.
