DELL XPS 13 PLUS

Dell is one of the many tech brands that have shown their presence at the ongoing CES 2022 tradeshow. Dell has taken the virtual stage to refresh its high-end XPS 13 laptop with the launch of the Dell XPS 13 Plus. The laptop involves a number of attractions, including the latest 12th Gen Intel Core processor, a sleek design, a “not visible to the naked eye” touchpad, and more. Here’s a look at the details.

Dell XPS 13 Plus is the Latest Flagship Laptop

The XPS 13 Plus comes with a sleek design and a flat keyboard with large keys. From the looks of it, you might feel that the trackpad is missing but that’s not the case. It’s very much there, provides a haptics experience, and is made up of glass; it’s just invisible! Another highlight of this laptop is the capacitive touch bar at the top portion of the keyboard, which makes it easier for users to juggle between media and function keys with ease.

The laptop comes with a 13.4-inch InfinityEdge display with support for up to 4K screen resolution, DisplayHDR 500, Dolby Vision, and up to 100% DCI-P3 color gamut. There are four display variants: a 4K UHD+ touch screen, a 3.5K OLED touch screen, a Full HD+ touch display, and a Full HD+ non-touch display. The laptop is powered by the latest Intel 12th Gen 28W P-series processors that come with 14 cores and 20 threads. It is coupled with the Intel Iris-X Graphics.
