Dell’s latest XPS 13 2-in-1 takes aim at the iPad Pro — look out Apple!

Today Dell announced the launch of the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 with a detachable keyboard that appears to be directly aimed at dethroning the iPad Pro and Surface Pro. The completely remodeled XPS tosses caution, and its reversible hinge, to the wind and replaces it with a Folio keyboard that is super responsive and fun to use. I got my hands on it at a Dell event and walked away very impressed. 

The new XPS 13 2-in-1’s keyboard attaches magnetically and allows for 100, 112.5, and 125-degree angles of use. A stylus connects to the XPS magnetically for temporary storage and charging. Being ambidextrous, I found that Dell’s new XPS Stylus was created with both left and right-hand users in mind; and holds a charge for an estimated 50 days.

He wrote his first tech articles for the now-defunct Dads On Tech 10 years ago, and his passion for combining humor and tech has grown under the tutelage of the Laptop Mag team. His penchant for tearing things down and rebuilding them did not make Mark popular at home, however, when he got his hands on the legendary Commodore 64, his passion for all things tech deepened. These days, when he is not filming, editing footage, tinkering with cameras and laptops, or on stage, he can be found at his desk snacking, writing about everything tech, new jokes, or scripts he dreams of filming.
