Dell ice lake xps: Dell’s 2020 XPS 13 (9300) Gets Ice Lake & A 13.4-Inch Ultra-HD+ Display

Intel Gen 11 Graphics Takes Fight To AMD In Dell XPS 13 2-In-1

It’s no secret that Intel has a lot riding on its «Ice Lake» 10th generation Core CPUs manufactured on its 10-nanometer fabrication process. The chipmaker got by on squeezing more power and efficiency out of its 14-nm node for what seemed like an eternity, but we’re talking about a mobile sector that relentlessly demands more performance and longer battery life. This oft-delayed Intel process node promises to reduce power consumption and increase performance by a wide margin over the Kaby Lake Refresh processors that previously served as the brains for thin and light PCs.

Dell’s XPS 13 2-In-1 Gets Ice Lake Engine Under The Hood

One of the first Ice Lake systems available at retail is Dell’s XPS 13 2-in-1 7390, a 13″ convertible laptop with a 360-degree folding hinge and an Ice Lake-derived Core i7-1065G7 with four CPU cores and Iris Plus graphics. Intel promises the Sunnycove processor cores deliver 18% higher instructions per clock (IPC) throughput than its predecessor. Ice Lake’s graphics engine got a significant boost, too, however. The Core i7-8665U only has 24 execution units (EUs) based on Intel’s 9th-generation graphics architecture, but the Core i7-1065G7 fits a whopping 64 EUs based on the company’s newer Gen 11 GPU architecture into the same default TDP of 15 watts. These latest Core processors also support much faster memory configurations; this system boasts 16 GB of LPDDR4-3733 memory. That clock speed is more than 50% faster (by megahertz) than the DDR4-2400 memory in our recent Kaby Lake reviews like the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon. Graphics performance is what we’ll focus on today—don’t worry, a full review of the XPS 13 2-In-1 7390 is coming—and that’s a task which will stretch this faster memory subsystem along with the integrated GPU.
 

 When we first got a look at Ice Lake, the Core i7-1065G7 wasn’t packed into a tight retail notebook enclosure, but rather was integrated into Intel’s hardware and software development platform, which wasn’t exactly a thin and light notebook, nor were its drivers thoroughly optimized. The XPS 13 2-In-1 we have on hand is a light hybrid notebook with a 360 degree hinge, a touch-enabled 1920×1200 (16:10 lovers, rejoice!) display and—most importantly—only weighs in at 2.9 pounds. It’ll be very interesting to see if the thermal solution in this featherweight holds back the integrated CPU and GPU combination, which is configured with an optional 25-watt TDP, or if maybe driver enhancements over the last three months have allowed Intel to wring out additional performance. To find out, we’re testing the XPS 13 2-In-1 7390 against the Intel prototype whitebook in both of its thermal configurations, along with a Ryzen 7 3700U (in a Lenovo T495 laptop), which is incidentally somewhat thermally limited by its 15 watt TDP. However, 15W  Ryzen 7 3700U devices that use on-processor graphics appear to be the only configurations generally available currently. The higher TDP Ryzen notebooks we found available at the time all had discrete GPUs.

Intel Gen 11 Graphics Gaming Benchmarks With A Retail Laptop

Hitman (2016)
1080p Headshot Performance

We started the fun with 2016’s Hitman, which is probably a beefier game than you’d normally run on such a thin and light system. However, the game scales down pretty well, and the new Iris Plus graphics processor almost caught the Ryzen 7 3700U’s built-in Vega 10 graphics processor in our previous tests. To test the Hitman, we ran the built-in benchmark at 1080p with a Medium level of detail and reported average frame rates. 

Right out of the gate we can see that something got us a little extra performance. Driver enhancements are possible, but it’s also possible that the additional memory and memory bandwidth of our XPS 13 2-In-1 allowed the iGPU to get more of the game cached at any given time. 8 GB is enough for some light gaming, but when you don’t have any discrete VRAM, 16 GB is preferable. In this case, it’s the difference between coming up just short of the Ryzen 7 3700U and beating AMD’s chip by around 15%. Dell’s portable system has both much more memory bandwidth and a larger pool of rendering resources than the Kaby Lake systems we recently reviewed. Speaking of which, Intel’s 8th-gen CPU got left behind in dramatic fashion, as the new chip ran the game nearly 150% faster than its predecessor. 

Middle Earth: Shadow of War
1080p Orc Bashing Performance

Next up is Middle Earth: Shadow of War. This game took a little coaxing to render at 1920×1080 since the display has a native resolution of 1920×1200 and the game wanted to show us only 16:10 resolutions at first. Changing the resolution in Windows to our preferred setting was all it took to get the game letter boxed, though, so we can deliver useful numbers for you here. 

This time out, we didn’t gain any extra performance from the XPS 13 2-In-1 over Intel’s development system. That’s unfortunate because in this configuration, Shadow of War is just not playable. Dropping the resolution down to 1600×900 almost pushed the system to 30 frame per second, but it would really require either a lower resolution still or lower details to be enjoyable. Integrated graphics of all stripes are just not capable of keeping up with this one at our selected settings. 

Strange Brigade
1080p 1930s African Adventure Performance

Finally, we’ll take a look at the Indiana Jones-inspired co-op adventure Strange Brigade. We could (and did!) test with both Vulkan and DirectX 12 rendering paths to get a feel for how well Intel’s drivers were optimized for the Khronos Group’s low-level graphics API. 

Once again, we couldn’t get playable frame rates out of our chosen settings. Just like Hitman, the Iris Plus’s performance in our Dell XPS 13 2-In-1 was a little faster than that of the Intel’s development system. It seems having a small retail-ready body doesn’t limit our Ice Lake CPU’s performance over a relatively short period like it takes to run a benchmark, but we’ll see how it does over the long haul in our full review. Right at a single frame per second separated our competitors, but subjectively, Vulkan was a bit jerkier than the DX12 render path. Both Strange Brigade and Hitman provide frame time data without any third-party tools like CapFrameX, so we’ll take a look at that in our full review as well. Meanwhile, you can see that Intel Gen 11 graphics are again markedly faster than its previous generation architecture, to the tune of about  75% here.

Ice Lake Performance Conclusions For Now

It’s a little early to pass judgment on Dell’s XPS 13 7390 2-in-1 laptop just yet. However, based on a quick round of gaming benchmarks that we could easily compare to Intel’s Software Development System, we can see that a retail sample can go toe-to-toe with the much larger developer kit. That’s great news for prospective Ice Lake buyers who just can’t wait for the final review. While CPU performance in low power envelopes has not been an issue, Intel has made great strides with its Gen 11 graphics architecture and in this limited subset of tests went toe-to-toe with AMD’s Vega 10 integrated graphics. While you’re not going to be playing at high resolutions and high frame rates on any current integrated graphics solution in an ultralight like this machine, taking an XPS 13 2-In-1 on the road will still afford you good performance, if you don’t mind turning the details down a couple notches. We’re excited to bring you the full review of Dell’s diminutive foldable 2-in-1 PC, powered by Intel 10th Generation Core series CPUs, so stay tuned in the days ahead. 

Dell XPS 13 (late-2020) review: greatness, refined

This is an easy review. Today, we’re looking at the XPS 13 9310, Dell’s best-in-class 13-inch ultraportable laptop. It’s identical to the Dell XPS 13 9300, which I reviewed back in April, in every way, except one: it has Intel’s new 11th Gen Tiger Lake processors. 

The new XPS 13 starts at $999.99. The base model includes a Core i3-1115G4, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, Intel’s UHD integrated graphics, and a 1920 x 1200 non-touch display. But the most exciting feature of the Tiger Lake line is Intel’s new Iris Xe integrated graphics. Models with those graphics start at $1,099.99 ($1,077.99 as currently listed) and include a quad-core Core i5 1135G7 or i7-1165G7. You can go up to a $2,499.99 model with 32GB of RAM, 2TB of storage, and a 3840 x 2400 touchscreen. I tested a $1,649.99 configuration (listed at $1,616.99 as of this writing), which includes 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.   

A familiar XPS 13 with a brand-new chip.

If you haven’t read my review of the XPS 13 9300 from earlier this year, go ahead and do that now because everything I said about the exterior of that machine also applies here. TL;DR: it’s really good. The chassis is made of CNC-machined aluminum, the logo is stainless steel, the screen is Corning Gorilla Glass 6; the palm rests are a woven-glass fiber with a unique texture. It’s lustrous, sturdy, and just about the best build quality you’ll find in a laptop. It’s also portable (2.8 pounds and 0.58 inches thick). The speakers are adequate, the keyboard is snappy and comfortable, and the touchpad is smooth and effortless to click. Another highlight is the 16:10 display with a 91.5 percent screen-to-body ratio, which gives you more vertical space than most consumer laptops (which are 16:9). You’ll notice the difference.

8.5Verge Score

Dell XPS 13 (late 2020)

$1616.99

The Good

  • Nice 16:10 display
  • Compact chassis with premium build quality
  • Best-in-class performance and integrated graphics
  • Solid keyboard and touchpad

The Bad

  • Limited port selection
  • Not-great webcam with no privacy shutter
  • Processor upgrades won’t be noticed by most owners
  • Runs unusually hot under load

$1616. 99 at Dell

Two main downsides: the port selection is meh (two USB-C ports with Thunderbolt 4, a headphone jack, and a microSD reader), and the 2.25mm 720p webcam isn’t great, delivering a blurry and washed-out picture. It also doesn’t include a privacy shutter or kill switch.

Like I said, check out the 9300 review if you want to read about the laptop’s exterior in more detail. What we’re focusing on here is the new processor’s performance and whether the 1165G7 (and its Xe graphics) are an improvement over the Ice Lake generation. The answer is yes. But it’s not an emphatic or particularly excited yes. 

It ships with a USB-C to USB-A adapter.

It’s also one of the first systems to be verified through Intel’s new Evo program. By giving a laptop an Evo badge, Intel claims to be certifying that it offers a number of benchmarks for “premium” thin-and-light laptops — Tiger Lake processors, Thunderbolt 4, Wi-Fi 6, all-day battery life, fast charging, quick boot time, and, perhaps most importantly, solid real-world performance.

In day-to-day tasks, the 1165G7 certainly measured up. It was never overwhelmed by my legions of Chrome tabs, apps, and occasional Spotify, YouTubing, and Zoom calls overtop — no slowdowns or delays. I never once heard the fans spin up during daily use and never felt any heat either. If you’re using this configuration for work or school, you shouldn’t experience any performance issues. 

I saw a slight improvement in content creation as well. The 9310 took 10 minutes and 43 seconds to complete our real-world media test, which involves exporting a 5-minute, 33-second 4K video in Adobe Premiere Pro. That’s a bit faster than any laptop with Ice Lake CPUs and integrated graphics completed the task. The MacBook Pro 13 with Iris Plus graphics took 11 minutes and 26 seconds, and the Surface Laptop 3 took just over 15. It’s also better than we’ve seen from other 1165G7 systems. Asus’ ZenBook 14 was about a minute slower. 

Have your pick of a Core i3, Core i5, or Core i7.

Here’s the thing: when it comes to productivity, this XPS is good. It’s an uptick over its predecessor (and I’d be very worried if it wasn’t). On the other hand, the 9300 (and other Ice Lake systems) were already quite good. The difference in Chrome tab loading speed and Premiere Pro export time isn’t earth-shattering enough that I can see it making a difference in the lives of the average XPS 13 user. If you already own a comparable Ice Lake system or are considering buying one to cut costs, I won’t urge you to upgrade.    

Content and media creators can opt for a 4K 3840 x 2400 display.

Folks for whom it may be worth upgrading are those who want to play some light games. On titles with lighter textures (the only ones you’d want to run on a laptop like this), the XPS 13 did a noticeably better job than its predecessor. It averaged 111fps on Rocket League’s maximum settings without dipping below 100; the 9300 put up 70fps with a minimum of 41. The 9310 also won out on League of Legends, averaging 205fps while its predecessor averaged low 160s. (Of course, the XPS 13’s screen is only 60Hz, so your experience in these games won’t change. You’ll see 60fps on either machine.) And it beat its predecessor on Overwatch, averaging 48fps on Ultra settings to the 9300’s low-40s average — a 10-ish percent increase. 

More good news for Intel: those results also put Tiger Lake slightly ahead of AMD competitors when it comes to gaming. The IdeaPad Slim 7, with AMD’s eight-core Ryzen 7 4800U, averaged 46fps on the same Overwatch settings. (You won’t notice a difference that small while you’re actually playing.)

Agree to Continue: Dell XPS 13 (late 2020)

Every smart device now requires you to agree to a series of terms and conditions before you can use it — contracts that no one actually reads. It’s impossible for us to read and analyze every single one of these agreements. But we started counting exactly how many times you have to hit “agree” to use devices when we review them, since these are agreements most people don’t read and definitely can’t negotiate.

To start using the Dell XPS 13 (late-2020), you’ll need to agree to the following:

  • A request for your region
  • A request for your keyboard layout
  • Windows 10 license agreement and Dell Terms of Sale / License Agreement
  • Microsoft account
  • PIN
  • Dell’s Support and Protection
  • McAfee security subscription

You can also say yes or no to the following:

  • Wi-Fi
  • Windows Hello face and fingerprint recognition
  • Privacy settings (speech recognition, location, Find My Device, sharing diagnostic data, inking and typing, tailored experience, advertising ID)
  • Android phone
  • OneDrive backup
  • Office 365
  • Cortana

That’s eight mandatory agreements and 14 optional ones to use the Dell XPS 13 (late-2020).

Demanding games are still out of reach for this machine

Unfortunately, demanding games in 1080p are still out of reach for this machine. The 9310 chugged through Shadow of the Tomb Raider at an average of 22fps. That’s a respectable increase from the Ice Lake XPS, which averaged 17fps on the same title, but you can’t really play the game (at native resolution) on either machine. So while Tiger Lake will give you a better experience with some of your titles, it probably won’t expand the range of games you can play. (We do expect gaming performance to get better over time.)

I think this form factor is also close to the limits of what it can cool. Throughout my gaming session, the CPU hit 100 degrees Celsius at a few points and spent a lot of time in the high 90s. (The keyboard was toasty throughout but not quite uncomfortable.) That’s hotter than I’d like to see, and I worry that if Dell continues with this design and Intel’s chips don’t make substantial gains in efficiency, the XPS 13 is going to hit a wall when it comes to performance.

The 52Whr battery is integrated and not replaceable. RAM is also soldered.

Finally, battery life was a pleasant surprise. I got nine hours and 15 minutes using this XPS as my primary work driver at around 200 nits of brightness. That time doesn’t top the category, but it does mean this should comfortably last you a full work or school day. The caveat is that I had all the various battery-saving things on — the Windows Battery Saver profile, Dell’s Battery Extender, Intel’s Display Power Savings, etc. When I ran a trial on the Windows Better Performance profile with Battery Extender off, I could expect closer to six hours. I didn’t notice a performance difference between those two scenarios when I was just doing office work and streaming, so I recommend that you do the battery-saving stuff if you want all-day juice.

Dell XPS 13 2020 specs (as reviewed)

  • Processor: Intel Core i7-1165G7
  • RAM: 16GB
  • Storage: 512GB
  • Graphics: Intel Iris Xe Graphics
  • Display: 13.4-inch 1920 x 1200 touch display
  • Ports: two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 with DisplayPort and Power Delivery, one 3.5mm headphone / microphone combo jack, one microSD card reader
  • Camera: 2.25mm infrared 720p webcam
  • Weight: 2. 8 pounds (1.27kg)
  • Dimensions: 11.64 x 7.82 x 0.58 inches (295.66 x 198.63 x 14.73mm)
  • Operating system: Windows 10 Home

This XPS has a performance edge over what we’ve seen so far in 2020. The Tiger Lake processor is a respectable step forward, particularly in graphics performance. People who work with graphics and video will probably find the increase most useful. For everyone else who’s mostly using the XPS 13 for school and office tasks, both Ice Lake and Tiger Lake systems should be fine — upgrading isn’t essential. Gaming performance clearly varies widely by title — gamers may see a substantial difference or may see very little. But if you mostly play lighter fare that Ice Lake was already tearing through (which is probably the case for a good chunk of folks who are gaming on the XPS 13), you won’t see the improvement on this screen.

So overall, the XPS 13 is still an excellent laptop. It’s still one of the best you can buy. But I’m not as starstruck as I was at the beginning of this year, because the competition is creeping up. Zenbooks, Swifts, Yogas, Envys, and Spectres have all made strides in design, build, nifty features, and performance this year — and there are ARM-based Macbooks on the way. There are quite a few releases on the horizon that are looking more and more like the XPS 13. 

This is the best laptop of 2020 with the fewest compromises and the fewest risks. But Dell will need to stay creative if it wants to keep XPS at the top of the stack in 2021.

Dell Starts Taking Pre-Orders for Updated XPS 13 2-in-1 with Ice Lake Chips

3DNews Technologies and IT market. News laptops and netbooks Dell began to accept pre-approval…

The most interesting in the reviews


08/09/2019 [11:56],

Andrey Sozinov

Dell is now taking pre-orders for the updated XPS 13 2-in-1 Hybrid Notebook (7390), which was introduced at the end of May at Computex 2019. The key feature of the novelty is that it is one of the first laptops based on the new 10nm Ice Lake generation Intel Core processors.

The base configuration of the updated XPS 13 2-in-1 is equipped with a Core i3-1005G1 processor, which has two cores and four threads, and 32 GPU execution units. The base clock speed of the chip is 1.2 GHz, and the Turbo frequencies of both one and all cores reach 3.4 GHz. In the maximum configuration, the Core i7-1065G7 is used with four cores and eight threads, as well as 64 GPU units. The base frequency is 1.3 GHz, the maximum turbo frequency for a single core reaches 3.9GHz, and all cores can be automatically overclocked to 3.5 GHz. As you know, Ice Lake-U processors have a configurable TDP from 15 to 25W, but Dell limited itself to only 15W in the new XPS 13 2-in-1.

In addition to advanced Ice Lake-U processors, the updated XPS 13 2-in-1 features a larger 13.4-inch 16:10 Infinity Edge touchscreen display with even thinner bezels than its predecessor. Available in FHD+ (1920 × 1200 dots) and UHD+ (3840 × 2400 dots) resolutions.

Available with up to 32GB LPDDR4x memory and up to 1TB NVMe PCIe 3.0 SSD. We also note the presence of a pair of USB Type-C ports with Thunderbolt 3 support, a Killer AX1650 802.11ax Wi-Fi wireless adapter, and a fingerprint scanner with Windows Hello support built into the power button.

The new Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 (7390) is now available for pre-order starting at $1,000. For this amount, a configuration with a Core i3-1005G1, 4 GB of RAM and 256 GB of solid state memory, and an FHD + display is offered. The top trim costs $2,650 and offers a Core i7-1065G7, 32GB of RAM and 1TB of flash, and a UHD+ display.
