CES 2018
Dell XPS 15 2-in-1 is the large convertible you want
Most powerful of its kind!
If last year’s XPS 13 2-in-1 wasn’t big enough for you, Dell has just come out with a larger and more powerful XPS 15 convertible.
Launched at this year’s CES, the XPS 15 2-in-1 is Dell’s most powerful convertible to date, mostly because it’s equipped with an eighth-generation Intel Core processor coupled with AMD’s Radeon RX Vega M graphics, making this a multimedia and editing powerhouse.
If that silicon pairing seems unfamiliar to you, that’s because it’s the first collaboration of its kind between Intel and AMD. Their combined engineering expertise created a chipset small enough to fit inside a thin convertible without giving up much horsepower.
Like any XPS notebook, it owns a 4K InfinityEdge display that significantly cuts down bezels on the sides and top. Only a thick bottom border remains for the webcam. The good news is that you can flip the convertible in a way that positions the front camera to the top, like pictured above.
Since this is larger than its 13-inch equivalent, you get more battery endurance out of this mobile machine — up to 15 hours, according to Dell. But despite the enlarged battery, the XPS 15 2-in-1 manages to stay slim at only 16mm, bestowing it the recognition of being the thinnest in this segment.
The lowest configuration can be had for US$ 1,299 — a pretty good deal considering how complete the setup is. It’ll be available in the US beginning Spring 2018.
If you’re willing to drop an additional US$ 99, you can use Dell’s Premium Active Pen on the XPS 15 2-in-1 with 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity and tilt functionality. The stylus can even magnetically attach to the convertible.

The InstaView ThinQ is the fridge of the future. It’s equipped with the smart voice assistant Alexa which means you will be able to talk to it — the better to figure out what you want to eat! Not only that, it will suggest recipes depending on what food items you have stored.
