![]() This means that it can produce enough colours to accurately display photos and video, which is crucial for media professionals or people looking to engage in creative work. ![]() ![]() The 13.4-inch display has a 3.5K resolution and in our testing, we found that the colourimeter recording was impressive, with the sRGB, Adobe RGB and DC-P3 scores coming out at 90%, 94.7% and 97.4%, respectively. According to our review, the screen produced natural and varied colours and picked up some small details like the ripples of the ocean, which made media more immersive overall. The XPS 13 comes with an OLED panel, which results in superior contrast and improved colour coverage when compared to standard laptop screen technology. Weighing in at 1.3kg, it is slightly heavier than the XPS 13, though we would expect them both to work well as on the go machines due to the small frames, making them both ideal for anyone who is currently hybrid working. This is more ideal for creatives or people that need to transfer large amounts of data or video content, though it does mean that the laptop is slightly chunkier. The Spectre x360 also houses more ports than the XPS 13: two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C, SuperSpeed USB Type-A, a microSD card reader and a 3.5mm audio jack. We really liked the choice of three colourways for the Spectre x360, with the Nocturne Blue colourway, in particular, having a distinct and stylish look that helps it stand out next to the usual silver and grey laptop colour options. Unlike the Spectre x360 13.5-inch, there is only one colourway for the XPS 13: platinum silver with black carbon fibre palm rest. There is also a fingerprint scanner embedded into the power button, which makes it even easier to quickly log in to Windows. We liked the keyboard and trackpad, with our reviewer finding both were responsive and comfortable to use. As noted in our review, this thin and slender frame gives it a very professional look, with a sturdier build than you may expect, since it weighs in at only 1.27kg. ![]() The XPS 13 has a wafer-thin bezel and is overall very thin, housing only two Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports, a MicroSD card reader and a 3.5mm audio jack. Since we don’t know the top price, we can’t say which model is overall more expensive, though we can say that the starting price for the Spectre x360 13.5-inch costs a bit more than the XPS 13. HP’s latest laptop is expected to be available to purchase this month and has a starting price of $1,249.99. While this price can be increased by upgrading the specs we will only be focusing on the cheapest variation, since we only know the starting price for the Spectre x360 13.5-inch. The Dell XPS 13 was released last year, with the cheapest variation available to buy from the Dell website for around $1,000/£1,000. But we will be covering the design, screen and specs of both laptops read on to find out how they stack up based on our current impressions of the new HP. The Spectre x360 16 can of course be used as a laptop, but the larger two-in-one design makes it good for giving presentations, using it as a whiteboard, sketching or notetaking with the included pen or kicking back and watching videos or gaming.But how does the latest Spectre compare to one of our favourite productivity laptops, the five-star Dell XPS 13 OLED (2021)? Since we haven’t been able to fully review the Spectre x360 13.5-inch we can’t offer our final verdict on how it compares to the ruling XPS. The smooth, sturdy body - made from recycled aluminum - and additional screen space compared to a 13- or 14-inch is worth the extra heft, though, especially if you're splitting time between working from home and hot-desking or hoteling at an office mixed with occasional pit-stops for coffee-shop conferences. The laptop requires a big power supply for full performance, too, but it can be charged with a smaller USB-C charger as well. It's not too heavy at 4.5 pounds (2 kilograms), although it's definitely not a toss-in-your-bag-and-forget-it's-there weight, either. The 16-inch size is rare for a two-in-one and makes the Spectre x360 16 more of a desktop replacement than an ultraportable (it has the ports to accommodate a desk setup without a hub, too).
