    Great price for the I5 version. Specs would be excellent for workload/ studying.

  • sim777 on 29/03/2019 - 11:58

    soooo tempting…is the 9360 the model with the separate fingerprint reader though?

    • naniktaish on 29/03/2019 - 12:06

      Pretty sure the scanner is not on the trackpad, afaik only Asus seems to have those ones

      • sim777 on 29/03/2019 - 12:12

        I meant the older xps 13 had a separate reader adjacent to the trackpad but the more recent ones (not sure if only 2019 xps 13) has it intergrated into the power button which looks aesthetically better imo

  • Trueretz on 29/03/2019 - 12:19

    Is this the model with the coil whine issue?

    • PVA on 29/03/2019 - 17:13

      No.

      Mine had horrible whine, technician replaced the motherboard and it was fine.

  • ferguscan on 29/03/2019 - 12:33

    They jacked the price on the i5. I was eyeing it off during a recent 10% sale, and the after-discount price was the same.

    • sandeman59 on 29/03/2019 - 14:45

      I agree. Dell specials aren't special. Cheaper to buy twice the spec machine from US including shipping and be better off.

      • ih8un on 29/03/2019 - 15:10

        Any recommendations Sandeman? I liked the higher spec version in this post. What would you recommend from the US and which store?

        "Cheaper to buy twice the spec machine from US including shipping and be better off."

        Losing local warranty though..

        • badonde on 29/03/2019 - 16:07

          Warranty is transferable.
          I got 9360 with i7 and 8gb (256gb ssd) for under a grand from dell outlet. Granted it was a year ago before gst change.

          Still doable for 1100

          Warranty was easy to change, should have extended it though!

          • SirBeansalot on 30/03/2019 - 01:54

            @badonde: Can you link us to where you can buy for that price?

            • badonde on 30/03/2019 - 18:55

              @SirBeansalot: Dell Outlet USA

              • badonde on 30/03/2019 - 18:56
                +1

                @badonde: The outlet kinda requires you to have a US card to buy it though, bit of a faff. And mail forwarding (I used shopmate)

                Other option is eBay refurbs or open box with 10 or 15% off sale
                Cheapest i7 latest gen is 1327 inc shipping and GST - 10% off sale might make it 1227.

                Maybe not worth it to save a couple hundred.

      • hishaken on 29/03/2019 - 18:22

        Cannot find better price XPS from US website. Dell US shows 1149 USD for same basic model.
        Does US have same keyboard layout as us?

  • NightVision on 29/03/2019 - 15:31

    Would you say this previous deal is better?
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/446339 (It expired though)

    • naniktaish on 30/03/2019 - 11:04

      Different laptop altogether. There'll be differences in terms of build quality between the two, also xps' battery is way bigger 60 v 38 wHr. If you're always going to be around a power outlet, Inspiron is a better vfm, else you really can't go wrong with the xps

  • theabyss on 29/03/2019 - 15:35

    It was this price for a long time.Not bad though.

    XPS = extreme pieces of sh*t

  • fastnet on 29/03/2019 - 16:21

    If anyone’s looking for a cheaper alternative, consider the Latitude 7390 that was posted recently. Ever so slightly bigger than the XPS 13 but the Latitude has better build quality and vibrant matte touch screen (whaaa). The XPS however has improved cooling with dual fans.

    Yes, our forum members have been arguing about warranty concerns and the reseller but the actual machine itself is fantastic. Got one for myself and no issues so far.

    • Yaren24 on 29/03/2019 - 16:30

      I got the 2015 XPS13, I am not sure when to upgrade it, but I am thinking to buy XPS15, not sure if it still has the fan issues though.

      • MikeWhitneysHair on 29/03/2019 - 17:13

        This turned me off looking into XPS15s: https://www.reddit.com/r/Dell/comments/b4xyts/going_to_order…

        Having said that there's the 2019 version with an OLED due out in April, was meant to be March. https://twitter.com/AzorFrank/status/1094335298690056192

        Should drive down the price of the 2018 version

        • Yaren24 on 29/03/2019 - 17:15

          I just hope the fan is not too noisy, that's all…

          • MikeWhitneysHair on 29/03/2019 - 17:25

            @Yaren24: Heard two issues there, one is that the cooling is better if you get a dedicated GPU, other is that there's a random coil whine in some batches

      • fastnet on 29/03/2019 - 17:38

        I've had both the XPS 13 and 15 in the past. The XPS 15 doesn't quite have the small and light feel of the 13 inch model. It's a bigger machine with considerable heft. So might be something to consider before making a decision.

        • Yaren24 on 29/03/2019 - 17:45

          Do you prefer the XPS15 or 13? Just curious though..

          • fastnet on 29/03/2019 - 20:00
            +1

            @Yaren24: I prefer the 13 for portability to use while travelling. If this is going to be your only computer the 15 may be a better choice.

            • Yaren24 on 29/03/2019 - 21:03

              @fastnet: Since I have the XPS13, I might look at XPS15 as it is bigger, looks better too, I just like a thin and powerful laptop unlike my previous 7000 series, just too bulky too heavy

              • od810 on 29/03/2019 - 22:50

                @Yaren24: XPS 15 is heavy… but if you need more than 16GB ram or dedicated GPU, you have to go with it.

                My work laptop is XPS 15 with max spec ((i7-7700HQ 32GB RAM GTX1050). My personal laptop is asus zenbook (i7-8550 16GB ram), I prefer to use it for 90% of the tasks. Unless i have to do any serious computation, i wouldn't pick up the Dell.

                • Yaren24 on 29/03/2019 - 23:17

                  @od810: I like XPS13 overall, but the keyboard layout and touchpad on xps13 really sucks compared to other ultrabooks

                  • od810 on 31/03/2019 - 13:27

                    @Yaren24: The keyboard & touchpad on the the xps 15 aren't better either… The keyboard is especially horrendous. They are just slightly better than the new Macbook keyboard (i still rate the new macbook keyboard is the worst in the industry)

                    • Yaren24 on 31/03/2019 - 14:09

                      @od810: Thanks od, so what is your recommendations for a laptop that is similar to XPS15, for 1.6-1.7k, I see this XPS15 is by far the best laptop in the league. I am not sure about other models.

    • fastnet on 29/03/2019 - 20:02

      Also forgot to mention, you can upgrade Ram on the Latitude 7390. It uses DDR4 2400Mhz SODIMM's.

  • HashBrown on 29/03/2019 - 17:37

    You can't upgrade the RAM on the XPS13, only the drive is swappable. Get the 16g RAM one if you want it to last longer. Those aside, the screen uses PWM and depending on person, you might get eyestrain and headache

  • richreduk on 29/03/2019 - 18:33

    Anyone seen this screen before? I had a look in JBHIFI today but it seems the screens in there are full 4k. With very similar specs their laptop is $2,400. I asked him the best price he could do and he said $2,200. Is a 4k screen worth 600 bucks!? Surely not

    • sim777 on 29/03/2019 - 19:01
      +2

      not in a 13 inch screen especially

    • ferguscan on 29/03/2019 - 23:03
      +2

      Typing this on an XPS 13 with FHD screen. It has a matte finish, and I like it a lot. I prefer it over the 4k screen.

      • richreduk on 30/03/2019 - 07:25

        Thanks mate! Seems like the battery lasts wayyy longer on the non 4k version as well. Do I pull the trigger or wait until EOFY sales?? Hmmmm

        • sim777 on 30/03/2019 - 10:13

          literally wondering the same thing - been watching prices of the xps 13 and all the reviews. Almost everyone seems to say the 9360 is the go-to. The 9380 has minimal performance gain over the 9360 and the full hd screen is matte (compared to glossy) and the battery lasts much longer.. I might have to pull the trigger finally on this deal!

  • excellent arrivals on 29/03/2019 - 20:36

    Is it the same as the one on the dell website for 20% off?

    https://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/dell-laptops/xps-13-laptop/s… which is the 2017 model or is it the most recent model like

    Is the i7 model touch screen?
