Battery life is only OK, More fan noise than we'd like, Slightly heavier than some 13-inch Ultrabooks on the market despite smaller screen size, Port selection is a little light, and there's no SD card reader

What you think about the XPS 12 will depend upon what you think about needing a single device to do double-duty as a tablet and a traditional PC. If you need that type of device, and can put up with using an extremely heavy tablet, then you'll find the XP...
Abstract: Dell's entry into the Windows 8 convertible-notebook market bridges the gap between a tablet and a notebook through some wonderfully clever engineering. Instead of using the keyboard as a dock for the display, the display flips around inside a frame t...
Outstanding build quality, No-compromises convertible design, Great keyboard, Beautiful 1080p display, Long battery life, Fast solid-state drive
Weight makes tablet use awkward, Finicky touchpad, Lackluster processor for the price
Dell's attempt to create a non-compromising convertible laptop works as well as we could have hoped. The XPS 12 absolutely nails the fundamentals of display, endurance, and interface. We would be eager to recommend this device even if it were only an Ul...
