Yesterday, at the Intel launch of the 5th generation processors at Makati we spotted the new Dell XPS 13 2015 edition and it is arguably the most stunning conventional ultrabook I've seen in person to date!
Why? It is because has that almost bezel less 13.3 inch QHD infinity display, awesome looking design, the powerful 5th gen Intel i7-5500U processor, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD and 52 WHr 4 Cell Battery. It runs on the latest Windows 8.1 and should be upgrade-able to Windows 10 once it arrives.

| Meet Dell XPS 13 2015 Edition! |
Here's my quick impressions...
Build and feel

| Classic Dell Logo at the cover |
Don't get fooled by the bezels and thinness of XPS 13 as it looks durable.The frame is made out of precious single cut aluminum that adds a lot of toughness in it. Then the body has that carbon fiber composite palm rest that can avoid scratches. Another great thing that I like with this is it have back-lit keyboard which makes the XPS 13 easier to use even in the dark. The XPS 13 2015 edition is also very light at just over a kilo which makes it very easy to hold and carry.

This is the most interesting part of this ultrabook! It features a near bezel less called the infinity display which has a space of just 5.2 mm. Having that great almost bezel like design won't look that good if this laptop don't have great display. It has that big for its frame 13.3 inch QHD screen 3200 x 1800 (276 ppi) woth Gorilla Glass protection to complete an amazing viewing experience.

As of the moment...
I thought that this one cost around a hundred thousand based on the looks. Fortunately I'm wrong that and it just cost around PHP 75 K that makes this an amazing buy for the business class and anybody who want a laptop that looks this good. So if you have the cash the cash and the need GRAB THIS NOW! It has that awesome looking screen, very fast processor and large amount of RAM for multitasking. The design of this set also stands out against the rest even if you put it side by side a MacBook Air as Dell took it to a whole new level. While it may not be that powerful when it comes to gaming, I'm sure that this can handle almost all the Windows task that you need.
