Pros and Cons

Dell XPS 13 Plus 9320

Strengths

The integrated track pad with the palm rest has been a very successful experiment.
Great for office productivity work and burst speed applications
Nice and light, perfect for travel
Good performance for light gaming
Slim design makes it look pretty nice

Weaknesses

Touch sensitive keys could be improved with physical keys like escape and delete
Throttling occurs during heavy gaming due to thin chassis
Not ideal for data science or long sustained work
Performance could be better with more powerful processor
Some users may find the touch bar at top not intuitive

Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 4

Strengths

its almost full-size keyboard with a comfortable touchpad for the compact size of the laptop
the incredible lightweight of the laptop weighing only 2.4 pounds, perfect for travel and great for those always on the move
a fully functional touch screen display that is pretty good and responsive to input
the battery life on the x13 lasts long enough to be good enough and charges back up in a respectable speed

Weaknesses

while the display is pretty good, I can't imagine graphic designers or product designers using this laptop as the vibrancy and sharpness just isn't quite up to par for someone who would be in figma or photoshop all day long
the camera was slow to load for me though and had problems adjusting in bright lights
I wish the trackpad was a little larger, but given that the majority of users probably will have a mouse paired to this device it's acceptable for travel and on the go
the starting price of about one thousand dollars might be considered high by some users

Dell XPS 13 Plus 9320

The Dell XPS 13 Plus 9320 is a sleek and powerful ultrabook that boasts impressive performance capabilities. Its i7 1260P processor, paired with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD, makes it well-suited for demanding tasks such as video editing and gaming. However, its thin chassis also means it can throttle when pushed to its limits, making it better suited for burst-speed applications like office productivity work. A unique integrated trackpad and touch-sensitive keys add to its sleek design, but some may find the lack of physical escape and delete keys a drawback.
