As somebody who used to main a Surface Pro 4, I immediately see two (Edit: four) major downsides that would prevent me moving to this if I were in the market for a new 2-in-1 (which I'm not right now): 1) While there are several magnets on the back to hold the case, it simply cannot have the range of the Surface Pro's kickstand in that form factor. Also, couldn't hook the not-a-kickstand over my knees while lying on a couch, something I used to do frequently with the Surface! 2) Flat keyboard my beloathed. The thing that made the Surface Pro keyboard not awful was the fact it clipped up to have a decent angle and therefore actual comfortable typing experience. That extra cm off the table really helps it feel like a normal keyboard! Edit: 3) You could actually use the Surface Pro on your lap 😛 Well, I could at least, and did. Most of the time I used it! Edit 2: 4) The movement to open this 2-in-1 and have it set up for typing seems a lot more involved than on the Surface. For the Surface, you open the keyboard lid (as with every laptop) and then just have to flick the kickstand back with the back of your middle fingernail in the little grooves on either side, then you're ready to go. Actually having to stop and adjust the back of the case, both pushing it into the right shape down the bottom and then adjusting the height up the top, is significantly more involved. I'm sure if you swapped between the two as a daily driver for a week or so, these little design decisions would add up. I'm sure the XPS computer part is great, but I do want to give a massive shoutout to the UX team who designed the Surface Pro for so many simple QOL decisions that you don't appreciate until they're suddenly not there! In fact, trying to use my old Surface as Just A Tablet now I have a new laptop, and it's interesting seeing how difficult it is because of _software_ design decisions that seem to have been made with far less care than the hardware. So no, I don't think the XPS has "DESTROYED" the Surface Pro, but it's good to see another serious competitor and I can't wait to see the learnings on a version 2. Little tip Dell: Great designers steal!

@@alley8780 It's fine. Depends on your use case. If you're at Uni/college, it's handy to have the extreme portability plus the pen for those maths courses/anything that requires diagraming. But beware that the heat dissipation is limited and if you're doing anything particularly intense, you can run into problems, though I only encountered this once or twice (mainly in my AI course). Also, Windows ain't the greatest programming OS, and the linux compat isn't amazing. But on the other hand, WSL 2 is getting better all the time. So if you're happy programming within Windows in general, you'll do fine. Overall, I had very few problems using it as my only computer during my CS degree. Moving to full time work, I had a separate work laptop for that, so can't say how it'd perform on a truly meaty codebase. If you like the form factor, there's nothing that I'd particularly say "no avoid this because xyz". The main thing is just those thermals aren't so great if you're pushing it very hard (though maybe they've improved since the 4) and there's no way to open the chassis to dust the fans. Also, if you crack the screen, you need a full replacement computer (ask me how I know, I started with a SP3). And though I might be sounding quite negative here, I've really loved that little laptop and if I could have my time again, I would definitely choose it again. Just wanna be very clear of the tradeoffs that do exist so you can make the decision that's right for you 😊 Oh, also, the pen functionality for being able to sign documents without owning a printer? Makes adulting so much easier!

As a Surface Pro user I have one observation. The kickstand is not attached to the tablet. So you have to attach the keyboard when you want to put your tablet up somewhere. Also for note taking the surface can be leaned a bit with the attached kickstand. I make a lot of use of that attached kickstand. It's a great solution by Microsoft. I wish other manufactures could just use that design.

This time the clickbait title actually disappointing, because I really hoped they did something cool with the surface form factor, but this is not actually better then Surface Pro. Just the Surface's hinge alone makes it better then any folio case combo. And Surface 8 has good improvements over previous generations (and still has a headphone jack). (Surface 9 though ditches the jack and just adds 5g and that's it)
@jonevansauthor

The 9 doesn't really have 5G though does it? It's got their own special processor which I'm sure isn't great, and 5G. You don't seem to be able to get 5G and the intel chip for some unknown reason (unless they've done the dirty on the UK which is a possibility I suppose). Plus you did miss the price. The whole price of the Surface 9 package is vastly higher than this. So it might be a better choice for people with less spare cash.

Also, you don't have to re-buy the pen and the keyboard between Surface generations (most of the time). As for 5G, I actually did know something. Surface 9 comes in 2 versions, Intel (without 5g) and SQ3 (with 5g). SQ3 is a Qualcomm Arm-based chip which has 5g and some AI cores for AI voice isolation and stuff, but it's also Windows on Arm with all downsides that come with it. Most programs do run on it, but everything that has to go through a translation layer runs like crap.

It seems the wrong way around, given that everyone is excited about Windows on ARM being good one day but I've yet to hear anyone rave about it now. Sorry that you were disappointed that this isn't the same price, but much more powerful somehow. I can see how that would be more exciting for some people. Personally, I've just been hoping for something that's powerful enough for office productivity, has the correct detachable form factor so it can be my tablet as well as my laptop and potentially even serve as my work (not gaming) PC. But... without the enormous price tag. I'm very much looking forward to an LTT Lab future where I can easily compare such things.

As a Surface Pro 7 user I have a few takes, and some might be hot. - Having the kickstand built in is way better, and can also cover wider range of angles - Surface Pros might not come with the pen and keyboard, but they have pretty good cross compatibility. So these are more of a one time expense for multiple devices. - The newer Pros have upgradable SSDs - Mine has a headphone jack and a USB-C port, and I basically always use a dongle. The donle makes the in line remotes work, which is somehow still not a thing for built in headphone jacks. - The Surface competitors might be competitively priced in the States with their constant discounts, but this is not the case for the rest of the world, so there they're usually more expensive. - The Surface has a magnetic charger

I must have seen another video because I fail to see where it "destroys" the Surface Pro... Just like with the Surface Pro 9, it doesn't have any headphone jack... I'd stick with the Surface Pro 8! The kickstand of a Surface Pro is amazing! I use it a lot without the keyboard attached. The angle is not only wider but also more smooth. And I've simply never liked magnetic stands. I own four Asus portable monitors and although three of them supports the fancy kickstand (and other compatible mounts) I only have one of those and the magnetic stands are just horrible. The Surface Pro 9 even have a better CPU 1255U vs 1250U for the i7 versions and 1235U vs 1230U for the i5 versions. They both have a 3:2 screen @ 2880 X 1920 but the Surface Pro 9 is 120 Hz while the XPS 2-in-1 is 60 Hz... If price is a concern and you can get the XPS cheaper, then do that. But you're comparing apples to oranges. I had to dislike this video because I'm tired of clickbait. I really though Dell had made something impressive, but it's nothing but a Surface clone. It's fine, but not really destroying anything!

Basic expectations: USB-A, Jack, replaceable storage and back entry. Every time a new tablet gets introduced I get more and more attached to my Skylake-4GB latitude. Disappointing. Edit: Yeah, 10.1" 10h battery (when new) and extended battery (double the runtime) in one of the 2 keyboard options.

Alex you really have to get with modern times. In new laptop/portable PC setups a 3.5mm headphone jack with accompanying internal DAC is much more complicated now in such small form factors to isolate from internal power interference and actually sound good. USB C to 3.5mm can be generations better in quality and realistically people are moving more and more towards wireless solutions or full external studio DAC's if using laptops for high end audio work. So fewer and fewer people are actually using a 3.5mm headphone output now anyway.

Also please for love of god can 2in1's bring back a lil loop on keyboard for the pen. Magnets do not hold it it always comes off and can get rekt in bag when it does. Having kickstand tied to keyboard makes it pain to use on uni desks which are usually shallow af. Overall still seems great lil drawing device.

The interest is : 1 -> use an external GPU that will use most of that speed 2 -> use a dongle to get what you need. In 1 port, I have 2 HDMI, 6 USB-A, 2 USB-C, 1 DP, 1 ethernet and it can charge my laptop. So with the XPS 13 plus, the other thunderbolt 4 is almost useless (you can use it if the first one stop working : )). So please stop considering that removing ports is bad. Because it allows Dell to get more space inside while being able to still use the same number of ports with a dongle. Well, you have to buy one after...
