Pros and Cons

Dell XPS 13 9350

Strengths

The display is one of the best on any Windows laptop, with vibrant colors and deep blacks, thanks to its OLED panel with an anti-glare coating.
The screen is touch-capable, supporting up to 10 fingers, and has no visible grid lines, making everything look crispy and satisfying.
The Intel Core ULTRA 268V processor handles office-related tasks effortlessly, even with large Excel files, and can also handle some gaming.
The laptop's display saves battery life compared to regular OLED panels, thanks to the Tandem OLED technology.
The device is capable of supporting 2-3 external displays with ease and has a high-resolution display (2.8K) with a 60Hz refresh rate.
The laptop's design is premium, sleek, and beautifully designed, although it may not have enough I/O ports.

Weaknesses

The battery life only lasts over 5 hours, which is disappointing for a premium product like this.
The function key LED strip cannot be turned off, which can consume some power and affect battery life.
The haptic trackpad may not be fully optimized, which can also impact battery life.
The cooling system on the laptop is limited, which can result in lower FPS performance compared to other graphics cards.
The speakers have sound quality that's just okay and the chassis vibrates at higher volumes due to the thin design.
The front design of the laptop could be more distinct, with a Dell logo that doesn't match the beauty of the internals.

Strengths

The GIGABYTE AERO 14 OLED has a nice aluminum chassis that looks clean and fine.

The Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 are standard features, providing a stable and fast connection.
The Windows Hello IR camera is a great feature for biometric authentication.
