The Dell XPS 13 used to go on sale all the time, and it usually had some of the best laptop deals available. That hasn’t happened so often with the latest model. At least not until today, when we spotted the Dell XPS 13 with Snapdragon X Elite processor on sale. It usually costs $1,300, but right now you can buy it for $1,100 saving you $200 off the regular price. Ideal for anyone who wants style and the newest model, this Dell XPS 13 will be perfect if you’re looking for a last minute purchase ahead of returning to school. Here’s all you need to know about it before you tap the buy button below.

Why you should buy the Dell XPS 13

The New Dell XPS 13 was recently launched, and our Dell XPS 13 review explains all you need to know about the system in-depth. Simply put, it provides excellent build quality, it’s thin and light, has great battery life, and provides exceptional performance too.

This Dell XPS 13 has the Snapdragon X Elite processor powering it. That may feel like a departure from something Intel or AMD based, but it works well for most tasks. There’s also 16GB of memory, and you get 512GB of SSD storage. Combined, that’s all you could need for most productivity tasks.

One of the reasons why Dell is one of the best laptop brands is because it pays attention to other details away from the core specs. That includes its screens, with the Dell XPS 13 having a 13.4-inch full HD+ screen with 1920 x 1200 resolution, a variable refresh rate between 30 and 120Hz, anti-glare properties, and 500 nits of brightness too. The display has Dolby Vision support for extra good looks. Continuing the stylish trend, there is also a backlit keyboard with a fingerprint reader built-in, and it looks gorgeously sleek. Even audio is a cut above the rest thanks to having Dolby Atmos support and 8W quad speakers.

You can also count on up to 27 hours of battery life when streaming videos thanks to the Snapdragon X Elite processor being well optimized yet powerful. For those focused on productivity related tasks, this is sure to be one of the best laptops around.

The Dell XPS 13 normally costs $1,300, but right now you can buy it for $1,100 at Dell. This model has not been discounted for a little bit, so it’s good to see it drop in price for a time. Because of that, don’t count on this deal sticking around for much longer though.

The Microsoft Surface Pro 9 is a versatile and dependable device, but even with the discounts from Surface Pro deals, it's pretty expensive. If you're looking for something that will give you similar functionality but at a fraction of the price, you should set your sights on the Lenovo Tab P11 Gen 2. It's already affordable at its original price of $370, but a 27% discount from Lenovo drops its price to only $270. There are limited stocks on sale though, so if you want to take advantage of the $100 in savings, you'll have to buy the 2-in-1 laptop right now.

Why you should buy the Lenovo Tab P11 Gen 2 2-in-1 laptop
One of the most attractive features of Microsoft's Surface Pro devices is their capability to transform from laptop mode to tablet mode, depending on what you need at the moment. You'll get the same benefit from the Lenovo Tab P11 Gen 2, which starts off as a tablet with an 11.5-inch touchscreen featuring 2K resolution and a quad-speaker system that's boosted by Dolby Atmos. To use it as a laptop, simply attach its ergonomic keyboard, which doubles as protection for the display when it's closed. It's a detachable 2-in-1 laptop, as described by our laptop buying guide, giving you the versatility that you'll need from your daily device.

If you plan on streaming via your laptop, you already have a webcam and microphone -- but neither will be as good as a dedicated solution.

It’s the perfect starter package for a streamer keen to upgrade their setup without spending a fortune. Here’s what we have to say about it.

Why you should buy the Blue Yeti Microphone and Logitech StreamCam Plus bundle
Starting out, streaming can be pretty cheap, as most of us already have some way of taking video calls. The same principle applies here. However, it’s better to buy something a bit more professional. That’s because audio is a huge deal when streaming and so is being able to see the reactions of a streamer. As a relatively new streamer, I’ve quickly learned that getting the right audio balance is everything to keeping people viewing. A built-in microphone simply won’t cut it.
