Dell has released its ultra-portable XPS 13 laptop in Australia, a compact 13.3-inch Ultrabook featuring edge-to-edge glass, near frameless display, all-day battery life and the latest Intel technology.
Just 6 mm at its thinnest point and only 18 mm at its thickest point, the XPS 13 Ultrabook features a 33.782 cm (13.3″) HD display. And with technology such as Rapid Start and Smart Connect, the XPS 13 Ultrabook enables users to be productive, connected and responsive anywhere.
The XPS 13 delivers second-generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processors and for users who store movies, music and photos, the XPS 13 has 128GB and 256GB solid state hard drive options, plus an additional 100GB of cloud storage through Dell DataSafe for content backup and sharing at no additional cost. The XPS 13 also comes preloaded with Skype™ for video chatting and McAfee® Anti-Virus.
The latest and most mobile laptop in Dell’s portfolio, the XPS 13 is part of Dell’s high-end XPS brand, which is now 20 percent of Dell’s total consumer laptop business. Revenue for XPS laptops has increased 207 percent over the last year when the company re-launched the brand to better meet the needs of today’s mobile professionals.
The XPS 13 was first conceived in 2010 to create appeal for all customers – for work and for play.
Steve Felice, president and Chief Commercial Officer of Dell said: “When Dell began the conversation of what an Ultrabook could be, we carefully considered how to provide customers not only incredible mobility, but also the kind of performance experience you would expect from something much larger.”
“The XPS 13 represents the most balanced of the Ultrabook class of notebooks to hit the market so far”, said Rob Enderle, Analyst for the Enderle Group. “Ultrabooks started by forcing people to make a choice between beauty and practicality and Dell took the time to make sure their offering would not only be very attractive, but address the critical needs of business and education buyers as well.”
The XPS 13 Ultrabook is available online at dell.com.au for $1,299 which includes delivery.
