Ahead of IFA, Dell announced another refresh of its XPS 13 laptop, now offering it with Intel"s 10th-generation "Comet Lake" processors. The new Comet Lake options have been available since shortly after the announcement, but you can now get it with a Core i7-10710U processor.
If you"re unfamiliar with the Core i7-10710U, it"s actually the first 15W hexa-core U-series processor that Intel has ever made. Previously in the eighth-generation, they were all quad-core, and the seventh generation was all dual-core.
Other than that, the new XPS 13 is pretty much the same as the one that was announced back in January. It still has a tiny webcam that fits in the narrow top bezel, sacrificing Windows Hello, and it still has a 13.3-inch InfinityEdge display with 4K Dolby Vision, Waves MaxxAudio, and Killer Wi-Fi.
Dell also has some new Inspiron PCs available for sale today, including the Inspiron 13, 15, and 17 7000 2-in-1 with Comet Lake chips, although only up to the quad-core Core i7-10510U. They now come with Thunderbolt 3, and they have a built-in pen garage. The Inspiron 14 7000 is now available with Dolby Vision, ExpressCharge, and Connected Modern Standby.
