Pros and Cons

Dell Pro 13 Plus 2-in-1

Strengths

Having the actual IO ports so I don't have to carry adapters with me is absolutely a fantastic thing.
It's sturdy and robust, perfect for business laptops that are treated like rental cars.
The serviceable Thunderbolt port makes it easy to manage for IT departments without having to unenroll and reenroll.
It does a great job of calming jobs in terms of what it is specifically designed for (executives, presentations, word processing, spreadsheets).
The pressure-sensitive digital stylus is very reactive and quick.
Dell actually listened to client feedback and produced this laptop based on their needs.

Weaknesses

It may not be the thinnest thing (but Dell acknowledges that's okay because they want ports).
The glass surface can get sticky with moist fingers, making it difficult to draw smooth lines.
Disconnects may occur when drawing lightly with the digital stylus.
Some users may need to get used to the disconnects and light touch requirements of the stylus.
It's not ideal for tasks that require intense processing power or graphics performance.
The design prioritizes ports over thinness, which may be a trade-off for some users.

Dell Pro 14 Plus

Strengths

Solid build
Nice new minimalist design theme
Modernized IO ports
Performance is very competitive
Modernized thermos have also improved significantly
Games like Counter Strike 2 comfortably run north of 60 frames per second
Thermals were the key problem with Dell laptops in the past however ever Dell really has turned a new Leaf over here
Self-upgradability is very limited, but you can technically upgrade the m.2 drive

Weaknesses

Cheap skate moments where Dell has some questions to answer
QA issue on my device slightly wobbling at a certain degree of tilt with the actual hinges
Display is unacceptable with full HD display and 60 HZ refresh rate at 300 nits peak brightness
Plastic surface trackpad is cheap skate moment
Limited upgradability, only m.2 drive can be upgraded
Fan noise not so much, hits mid 60 DB when anything moderately intensive
Speaker quality is not top of their mind and experience is pretty flat
Current MSRP pricing is expensive and justifies a $25% cheaper price tag
