  • Abstract:  The Dell XPS 12 looks very similar to the company's XPS 13 ultrabook, but this Windows 8 laptop has a twist. Like the now discontinued Inspiron Duo netbook, the screen flips around 360 degrees on a cantilever hinge so it can be used as a tablet.Althoug...

  • Abstract:  The Dell XPS 12 has caught the attention of many people since it leaked last May but that could be attributable to it having one of the coolest design features we've ever seen on an Ultrabook. The flip-screen is impressive. But is it useful? And how good ...

  • Touchscreen and keyboard handy for Windows 8, sturdy aluminium and carbon fibre construction
  • Integral battery, lacking mobile broadband, Ethernet or docking port
  • Dell's XPS 12 is a neat system that shows how well Windows 8 can work with both keyboard and touchscreen, but few I/O ports and no access for maintenance make it less suitable for a business system...

  • The Dell XPS 12 weighs about 1.5 kg, which is pretty heavy for a tablet. For a laptop, it's pretty reasonable. You get a Full HD IPS display, a Samsung PM830 SSD and a good battery life. If you're looking for an Ultrabook with a 256 GB SSD this is an ...

  • Dell has really hit on something with this spinning screen convertible notebook malarkey. Rotate the XPS 12's display one one way and you have an no-compromise Ultrabook - though as an Ultrabook, it is a compromised notebook: no optical drive or Ethernet...

  • Highcontrast screen (800:1 to 850:1), Good processing power, Fast boot and shutdown times, Pleasant to handle and use, Screen definition (1920 x 1080 pixels)
  • Can be a bit noisy (45 to 50 dB(A)) when the fan gets going, Not great for games, Audio quality could be better
  • The Dell XPS 12 is a good compromise between a tablet and an ultrabook, although it excels at being neither. Connections are a bit thin on the ground compared with a standard laptop and battery life is a bit tight for a tablet. On the other hand, it's muc...

  • Abstract:  Microsoft’s Windows 8 is a bit schizophrenic. Microsoft likes to focus on the shiny new tiled interface that is specifically designed for tablets and other mobile devices. But scratch beneath that surface and you’ll soon discover ye olde Windows desktop, ...

  • Screen can flip around to become a tablet, Bright and bold display, Excellent build, Quality Windows 8 software, Powerful enough for every day tasks
  • Pretty pricey, A couple of minor software issues when using it in tablet mode, Windows 8 app store doesn't have a lot to offer yet
  • The Dell Duo 12 is a 12-inch laptop with a screen that flips over to become a tablet. With a great display, excellent build quality and decent performance, it's an ideal compromise between laptop and tablet, although it's expensive -- you could buy bot...
