It’s also extra compact and portable while still being suitably powerful for work and school. Here’s all you need to know about it before you tap the buy button below.

Why you should buy the Dell XPS 13

Our Dell XPS 13 review explains all you need to know about the system in-depth. Simply put, it provides excellent build quality, it’s thin and light, has great battery life, and provides exceptional performance too. We really love the compact and lightweight design that serves the portable nature well. You can take it and use it virtually anywhere. That makes it so great for school, work, or some productive tasks.

This Dell XPS 13 has the Snapdragon X Elite processor powering it. That may feel like a departure from something Intel or AMD based, but it works well for most tasks. There’s also 16GB of memory, and you get 512GB of SSD storage. Combined, that’s all you could need for most productivity tasks.

One of the reasons why Dell is one of the best laptop brands is because it pays attention to other details away from the core specs. That includes its screens, with the Dell XPS 13 having a 13.4-inch full HD+ screen with 1920 x 1200 resolution, a variable refresh rate between 30 and 120Hz, anti-glare properties, and 500 nits of brightness too. The display has Dolby Vision support for extra good looks. Continuing the stylish trend, there is also a backlit keyboard with a fingerprint reader built-in, and it looks gorgeously sleek. Even audio is a cut above the rest thanks to having Dolby Atmos support and 8W quad speakers.

You can also count on up to 27 hours of battery life when streaming videos thanks to the Snapdragon X Elite processor being well optimized yet powerful. For those focused on productivity related tasks, this is sure to be one of the best laptops around.

The Dell XPS 13 normally costs $1,300, but right now you can buy it for $1,100 at Dell. This model has not been discounted for a little bit, so it’s good to see it drop in price for a time. Because of that, don’t count on this deal sticking around for much longer though.

Google finally lets you turn any website into an app on Googlebook
Google heard your complaints, and now every website can be an app on your Googlebook.
Using the HP Googlebook

Googlebook users, rejoice. Google is rolling out a Chrome update that turns any website into a web app, and you have the community to thank for it.

When Googlebook first arrived, Chrome was picky about which sites you could install. Only websites that developers had set up as web apps got the Install option. Everything else ended up as a shortcut that simply launched a browser tab.

DigUp lets users find Mac files by describing them, not remembering their names
Can't remember where that screenshot, PDF or recording went? Just describe it and let AI do the digging.
DigUp App in Use screenshot

There's a particular kind of frustration that comes with knowing a file exists somewhere on a computer but having absolutely no idea what it's called. Was that screenshot saved as IMG_4837? Which PDF contained that clause? And where did that podcast recording mention the thing worth remembering? DigUp wants to end the filename guessing game, letting Mac users search for files by describing what they remember instead. The free, open-source app uses Google's EmbeddingGemma 2 to search across photos, documents, PDFs, audio recordings and videos, all without sending personal files to the cloud.
