Bottom Line: For non-Apple users, it's an especially great alternative to the MacBook Air, with nearly comparable stats in most categories. A decent tablet, a great laptop, and portable enough to not be burdensome. If you don't need massive flexibility but you like a little something special on top of your average touchscreen ultrabook, the XPS 13 will more than do you right, with a slick design on top of everything.
