We must note, however, that the new 2018 MacBook Air has a 2560×1600 resolution screen, while the standard has a 1920×1080 panel. We agree that in the standard configuration, it’s going to be a wash between these two laptops. We’ve measured the at 13 hours of video run time using a local file, which is basically a tie, right? The Core i5 is one of the fastest ultraportable laptops we’ve ever seen. We strongly suspect that even the cheapest Core i3 option in the cheapest XPS 13 will leave the new MacBook Air in the dust.Īpple claims about 13 hours of video run time using iTunes. No matter which CPU it uses, we can tell you with a high degree of certainty that the Core i5-8250U or the Core i7-8550U option in the XPS 13 will smoke the 2018 MacBook Air. Adam Patrick Murrayĭell’s is one of the fastest ultraportables we’ve ever seen, and a formidable rival to the new Macbook Air 13. Given that the CPU is a dual-core 8th-gen, it’s likely the CPU could be a relative of this unannounced Core i7-8510Y, which popped up in a performance database with Intel UHD 617 graphics. The only CPU detail we know about the MacBook Air is that it uses an “8th gen Core i5 dual-core.” That doesn’t say much, but Apple’s website says the graphics are Intel UHD 617, which doesn’t officially exist yet in Intel’s database.
Although Dell still carries an older version, Dell gave the XPS 13 a major redesign with the XPS 13 9370, the one we’ll compare to the new Macbook Air.
