Dell XPS 12 The
Dell XPS 12 is a thin, powerful, very cleverly designed touch-screen
convertible that flips into multiple screen positions.This machine’s key
feature is a 12.5-inch touchscreen with a native resolution of 1920 by 1080
pixels that pivots inside its aluminum frame—just as on the original. Open the
lid, and you can use the computer as you would any other notebook. You simply
push the top front or bottom back of the display to pop it out of its frame,
and then flip it over and close it to convert the machine into a tabletThe
biggest improvement, though, lies in battery life. The Ivy Bridge version of
the XPS 12 provided 5 hours of streaming video, but that figure rose to a 6
hours and 45 minutes when we tested again with the same test.The Dell XPS 12 is
one of the most powerful Ultrabooks you'll find. It might be heavy and awkward
as a tablet, but when you consider the value that's on offer, with the
blistering processor, 8GB of RAM and 256GB SSD drive, there's more than meets
the eye..
But, For all the hype
about touch and tablets with Windows 8, the XPS 12 still works better as a
laptop than as a slate. Its battery life is on the low side.
The bottom line: Dell
has revamped its rotating Duo laptop concept into the much-improved XPS 12, but
like most convertibles, it makes a better laptop than tablet.
