5.0 out of 5 stars Dell XPS Laptop Excellence, February 7, 2016
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I purchased the configuration model: Dell XPS XPS9350-5341SLV 13.3 Inch QHD Touchscreen Laptop (Intel Core i7, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, Silver) Microsoft Signature Image. This laptop (in my opinion) has the best in-class balance of size and performance. The laptop form factor is approx. 11 inches and 2.8 lbs. which is ideal for carrying everywhere. The 13.3 inch QHD Touchscreen is bright, responsive, color pallet is vivid, and the edgeless screen looks fantastic. Keyboard layout is well positioned, doesn't feel small/cramped, and the palm rest has plenty of space even for my Shrek hands. I did not experience any of the problems previous users reported. I believe the main reason why is once the initial Win10 setup completed, I then manually performed a Win10 update which loaded several new updates and required reboots. Using the XPS 13 under typical use conditions with the battery saver option provided 6-7 hours including streaming videos. The 1 USB-C/Lighting port, 2 USB 3.0... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best XPS 13 Yet!, February 23, 2016
By 
USB Type-C, PCIe SSD and the coveted Iris 540 are what you get when you upgrade to Dell's newest i7-6560U. I've owned a 2015 13" MacBook Pro Retina, a Surface Pro 4 i5 and an iPad Pro and none of these are as convenient or as powerful as the XPS 13. I can tell you from experience the battery is good for 8-10 hours. I also own a XPS 13" 9343-7273SLV and it gets similar results. The Quad HD+ Display is absolutely gorgeous and the chassis is solid and attractive. To get similar specs in a Microsoft Surface Book you'd have to spend well over $2,000 but you get higher Turbo clock rates (3.2 GHz vs. 3.4 GHz), a pen, detachable keyboard and the Windows "Hello" screen. I do miss the "Hello" face recognition screen in the SP4 but don't miss the Backlight bleeding that accompanied the 2 that I owned.
Its light, powerful, easy to carry around and could easily replace several devices. It did for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Upgraded SSD Results on 9350 and 9550, February 21, 2016
By 
Robert Salita (CHI PAR PHX SYD PDX CLD NKC) - See all my reviews
Bought both a Dell XPS 13 (9350 i7 QHD 256GB RAID) and an XPS 15 (9550 i7 QHD+ PM851 1TB RAID). Out of the box, I immediately upgraded the BIOS and drivers. The XPS 13 was totally fine. The XPS 15 had the known issue of reduced SSD speed out of sleep mode (RAID only). I switched from RAID to AHCI and the issue went away. I upgraded the XPS 15 to a Samsung 950 Pro 512GB SSD using the Samsung 950 driver (AHCI mode). No issues at all. Next, I moved the 1TB PM851 SSD to the XPS 13. There were multiple issues; daily BSODs, slow boot to Dell BIOS logo, other issues. They were all fixed by switching from RAID to AHCI. Both computers are now completely stable on their upgraded SSDs.

By upgrading to a faster performing SSD, the systems were noticeably faster. That said, for most the performance benefit is not dramatic and the upgrade difficulty is somewhat high. I don't recommend doing so unless maximum performance or higher capacity are needed.
