Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 Tiger Lake Review | 2021 Laptop/Tablet Hybrid Tested

- Reviewing Dell's XPS 13 2-in-1 laptop/tablet hybrid in 2021, with Tiger Lake smarts. I've been testing this flexible notebook for a fortnight following my review of the XPS 13 9310, just before we hit 2021. Here's how the gaming performance, battery life and other bits hold up vs best rivals like the MacBook Air M1, if your budget stretches to that £1400 mark.
Dell's 2-in-1 laptop boasts the latest Intel Gen 11 chipset for smooth everyday running and capable creative work. This is one of the best ultraportable notebooks around, and tough competition versus Apple's new Macbook Air M1 (and even the Pro). It's skinnier and lighter than those Mac laptops, with a flexible design that converts into a tablet. Although the keyboard isn't as good as the XPS 13 9310, the display is another stunning Full HD LED panel. With full touch controls naturally.
The XPS 13 2-in-1 also offers respectable battery life, although vs the Macbook Air and Pro with Apple's M1 platform it can't quite compete. Check out my review of that Macbook Pro for all you need to know, and I've also fully tested Dell's 931 here on Tech Spurt. - Věda a technologie

So you're a man of culture as well
What's misaka

@@rosydipo I see you're not a man of Culture. Go watch Attack On Titan you'll love it.
@@rosydipo You mean who, my man.
CZcams’s hidden gem. Really enjoy your videos, rate them up there with the most popular tech reviewers. Hoping 2021 brings you success.
Love your well-written, extremely witty reviews!
I am so damn happy they restored the PgDn and PgUp buttons correctly right next to the arrow buttons where they belong. Drives me nuts there's so few laptops I can use because of that.
Great review thanks! Good info and some good laughs too. Like your style. 👍
Chris, another very complete review. This would not be me, but Dell is a good choice for laptops and is a company in my state in the US. Would love to see more laptops in the review studio. Thanks. Stay safe.
I have an older version and it did great when rendering video from 4 k to 1920 x1080 I love these .
If you dont need the PageUp + PageDown keys that often you could use a key mapper (like Sharp Keys) and map PgUp to Left and PgDn to Right. To use PgUp + PgDn you could use Fn+PgUp etc.
Nice ,thanks!
Awesome Dell xps review! Keep up the great contents! 🍻
Nice review, I bought the fully specced model, it’s been excellent without any bugs.
have there been any software improvements with the webcam?
As a xps 13 2-1 user, the easiest way to deal with the dog shit page up/do keys is to download sharp keys and re bind them to the left and right arrows respectively. It’a a small thing but that 5 minutes it took to install has made a huge difference in my productivity. Great review!
whats ur experience with it? does it hold up
Then what would you do to get your page up/down keys?
@@podis5238 I don't use them. I just scroll lol
@@anihilistsweetpotato9535 lmao
The main man's back
5:56 Did I hear you say "a pair of stereo speakers hidden away on the lap top's arse"? 🤣🤣🤣
Nice video! Do you have the full specs of the unit you reviewed?
Did you get a anti-glare screen for it? It seems to not have that. I wonder if it affects the quality
What are your thoughts on the HP Envy 13 x360?
does it support pen tho?
thats most important question otherwise 2 in 1 form factor would be useless for many.
Uncle Spurt hope your well and refreshed after the festive season I'll looking for a 2 in 1 Chromebook would you and your extensive large knowledge of gadgetry suggest a good one. I thought the Asus flip C436 do you approve. Or is there better cheers Love you 😁👍
I’m using a Latitude 5289, and paid 1/3 of what they want for a new model.
Had the same display issue, a couple seconds the screen would go black followed by a 1 second no signal display, and then come back on.
Dell XPS 13 or HP Spectre X360 14 or Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 14 gen 9 ?
Are those standard USB ports to plug in mouse or iPhone charger?
How does it compare to the HP Spectre and the HP Elite book please?
Can we get a comparison of this with the HP Spectre x360 14?
4:51 I laughed out loud and scared the hell out of my cat just now 😂
For architecture, which one do you recommend?
How bad is that soft touch material? Does it feel like the x1 extreme? And can you open it with one hand?
nice but need the usb ports, what you guys suggest
thanks. wish you had made a comment or 2 on the quality of screenwriting with active stylus pen..
Wish I could meet you and discuss tech and anime with you brother ❤️❤️❤️❤️. I love your work.. love from India ❤️
From India man, wanna discuss tech and anime ?
Can you upgrade the space?
But the most important, what is the Linux compatibility?
Can you please 🙏 please 🙏 please 🙏 please review MSI Modern B4M 14 ryzen 5 4500u amd budget laptop?
Can you put screen protector in this lappy?
Good for traveling and editing youtube videos ?
Would you recommend this over to the Samsung Galaxy book 360?
Wouldve been nice if it had an lte option
Thanks for review
did he said 5-6 hours only? how is that possible?my 10 year old hp lasts for 3-4 hours.did he meant 15 hours?
Where do you get your wallpapers
Between the Dell XPS 15, Asus Zenbook Duo and HP Spectre which one do you recommend overall?
15 is definitely the best.. I was going to get the XPS 15 but then I heard of all the people who sent it back because of it’s really faulty track pad so I decided to avoid it. I didn’t want the M1 Mac Pro as it wasn’t optimised for photoshop which is what I need. So I’m thinking the XPS 13 is a good substitute it’s decently fast, touch display, good for photoshop
Chris, I definitely wouldn't use face ID on a laptop!
That's the least secure thing you could do!
It's a nice laptop indeed but waaaaaaaayyyyy out of my budget x any chance of a review of budget laptops?
I( have one from 2019 and one from 2021, superb system
How long(battery )does the 2021 model last?
Does anyone here know if a Raphael 520 stylus is compatible with this laptop?
Do you know if it can work overseas in term of ~220 to 240 voltage? Or it specified for 120 V and 60 Hz?
I'm using it in England at 240v.
I'm wondering if the "black screen" issue is related to drivers. As the Intel Iris Xe graphics is new, there could still be bugs in the drivers.
I've read complaints of this black screen issue in the dell reviews on their site. I saw one of the dell reps reply with a link to updated graphics drivers.
@@gobofraggel7383 I'll probably find out soon enough, as I should be receiving my review unit very shortly...hopefully before the end of this coming week. Obviously, upon receiving it, the FIRST thing I'll be doing is running Windows Update, until there's aren't any, as well as checking Dell's & Intel's websites for ant updates drivers.
I like it, but it is too expensive for me right now.
i feel you 😂
Nice Review and a bit of anime 😍
Is this good for photoshop? And other heavy software
Can anyone help me confirm if these laptops with 2 TB4 can support 2 Egpus at the same time?
Damn. Between this and the Surface Pro 7, Microsoft is once again making it kind of tough to buy their products...
Well in my experience with Microsoft their customer service and hardware quality are still much superior than dell. Microsoft normally will replace a new unit if its hardware related. I had very bad experience with dell xps, they tried to fix it for months, tried not to refund me until i filed complaint to our local consumer court spent 2k usd wit all the trouble.
Sir, please put up a video about your favourite wallpapers :D
that would be awesome 😄
Give us the source of that Mikasa wallpaper brother
Does anybody know if we can undervolt this thing?
I have the same laptop but I got a problem when I want to use the tablet mode and I turn the screen 360° it turns off can someone tell me why please is there something I can modify to use it
nice review again and nice laptop also but i think is not for me this time :((
What movies were those?
What is the wallpaper at 7:35 ?
Woohoo mate nice review 🌝
But how gud is the battery life!?
This is how i imagine how laptops SHOULD be today for 499$...
Same. All the technological improvement, Moore's law and what not. Nope take this stupid celeron/atom/amd (non-ryzen) slow molases with crappy 128gb ssd.
Heck basic gaming Asus ROG gaming laptop used to come with 16gb ram (2013). Nowadays 8gb it is. Asus TUF series in the Malaysian market only comes with 4gb. The first MSI GS Stealth (thin ang light gaming laptop) comes with 3 x 256gb ssd (raid-0).
Sad trend for the pc market for mere mortals. I can't fathom the fact that i'll be buying a 1000$ laptop for my under age brother (13) because 500$ is very very bad (shitty 786p tn screen, shitty cpu regardless amd or intel, shitty slow SSD or even EMMC baked in, lack of ram)
Tottaly agree.. I upgraded my very old laptop and wanted to spent 500 (which i think is a decent amount) and I got disappointed that I didn't found anything that FELT really like an upgrade after so many years.
@@dzulhasnikhomaini6148 I agree! I think it's so stupid for companies to charge expensive items for Intel Celeron.
I'm buying a second hand HP Spectre 2016 next week because I can now afford it. Guess what? A brand new Acer with Intel Celeron, manufactured in 2020 is equal price to HP Spectre from 2016.
Spectre: i5, 256 GB. Date: 2016
Brand New Acer: Intel Celeron, 32 GB Date: 2020
Same price.
Absolutely ridiculous.
@@castle_novelist I've had a horrible time looking first at £500-600 new laptops... then £500-600 second hand laptops from 2018... and then realising my 2012 Zenbook is more powerful than both. £1200+ for a new laptop I'll like, or £60 for a replacement battery. Hm.
would've been nice 😂
Just wondering which football team do u support??? 👀
I'd make a drinking game where you take a shot every time he says the name of the product he is reviewing but at this point I might as well skull an entire bottle of vodka at the end of every video.
Much love.
Very good, and funny, as always - just missing a review of the Dell active stylus. I might buy one just so my voice sounds sexy too when I next call your mum ;)
Hi, I'm currently using an old ipad pro which I love but , I'm need to change to a laptop something I can use for my studies but that is lightweight that I can still use my data sim in. I would preferable 2 in 1 that is fast but very capable for lots of different task.
Can you suggest anything?
Look for a Dell 5289 with cellular.
The only difference between this one and the older model is the CPU.
I'm using one as I write this, so I can confirm little else has changed.
And it's $250-$400 used.
He was rewiewing the Dell XPS 13 2019
Oooo yeah,get them DELL the original boss
WHY CANT THEY PUT AN AMD PROCESSOR
Give us the collection of your wallpapers
Is it good for medical student?
I managed to rack up $800 in Dell credits and another $200 in credit card rewards points. So many things I can buy but this laptop is calling out to me.
Funny. Great review. Thanks.
I dont suppose you tested it on online gaming like Apex Legends?
Is it Windows 11 compatible?
About the black screen you are absolutely reason its appear to me few time and i dont really know the cause i have i v updated my windows to the last one win11 still have the same problem
What is the model number of this laptop?
Hey Tech, you showed you logged in using camera…. Windows claim this laptop doesn’t support hello camera?!?!
This or Samsung flex 2
That Roar tho! xD
Rooter?

No good if screen goes off and it crashes.

What's laptop would you say to go for with a budget of £600 ?
Dell Inspiron 2 in 1
@@elijahmonreal1411 thank u for the reply bro I will check that out
The Latitude 5289 is a great one to have. Mine is a 2018 model, and costs between £400-500.
It has all the same features, including video chipset. The only difference is the generation of the processor.
My budget is the same too, any recommendations?
@@HUYI1 idk where you live and if that affects things but the lenovo flex 5 14" with AMD processors as well as lenovo ideapad 5 (i think also with AMD processors) are very popular budget options. there might be warranty issues for those living outside the US, but it might be a good place to start
I have it and like it with one major disappointment. The edges are VERY sharp and dig into the skin when typing, making it quite uncomfortable.
Blimey!
Is there a 15" 2 in 1 version of this ?
No
No brands do 15.6 laptops anymore which is a shame 😑
Can you open the Laptop with only one hand?
I don’t think
I'm here because of a Mikasa wallpaper
Haha he has alot of wallpaper
Make an AMD version
Lighted keyboard or nah?
Yes, it's lit.
I was excited to see you review a 2 in 1 yay... only to have my smile turned into a frown... You completely missed the target audience for a 2 in 1, and that is those that want pen support... for those who don't want two separate devices (laptop and tablet with pen) to read pdf's, highlighting and write notes directly on device - eg students, and be entirely paperless.
If you don't need pen support and touch on one device, by all means, go for your standard vanilla laptop buy.
I need to afford this, real bad
Sir i felt this lol
Amazing video!! I have a question is the SSD soldered on the Board?
It IS soldered AND it's NOT PCI-E 4.0 which the system is capable of! Too bad as the standard 9310 has a user replaceable nvme and slapping a 980 Pro in there gets crazy speeds in excess of 6GB/S!
@@cpufrost thanks for the reply!! That's just too bad.. i won't buy it then. 😐
7:45 that's gigaBYTES, my friend. 2gigaBIT write speed would be unimpressive indeed
Is the keyboard backlit?
yeap
yup
Wouldnt say no to one, if it was given to me....
noob
GET NOOB - quote albert
the hp envy 360 is kinda better with an amd chipset and better port selection
Do you watch anime?
