Dell XPS 14 (2026) review: Two steps forward
The Dell XPS 14 (2026) has undergone significant improvements, offering a lighter and more functional design starting at $1,599.99. It features Intel's new Core Ultra Series 3 processors for strong performance and impressive battery life on the 1920 x 1200p model. The laptop includes a physical function row and tactile bars around the touchpad for improved usability. Despite a divisive shallow keyboard, updates to the speakers and an optional OLED display enhance the overall experience. The XPS 14's design changes, including the return of the XPS brand name, mark a positive step forward in addressing past criticisms.
