Dell XPS 13 Copilot+ review: A capable AI PC, but Windows on Arm issues remain

Dell has released a new XPS 13 model designed for Microsoft's Copilot+ AI PC initiative, featuring Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite chip. The laptop delivers fast performance, runs most productivity apps well, and is future-proof with its 45 TOPS NPU. It has a wide and comfortable keyboard, a sharp and colorful display, and InfinityEdge bezels that make the screen pop. However, it suffers from issues with emulated x86 apps, which can run slowly, and lacks support for games due to anti-cheat software compatibility. Battery life is average, and the invisible trackpad and capacitive function row can be difficult to use. The XPS 13 Copilot+ starts at $1,300, but it's currently on sale for $999. It's a solid choice for those needing a powerful 13-inch laptop, but potential buyers should be aware of its downsides and software issues.
