The new XPS 14 and XPS 16 laptops
Perspectives
Jeff Clarke, vice chairman and chief operating officer, Dell Technologies: "We're getting back to our roots with a renewed focus on consumer and gaming. XPS is back, better than ever, with a complete redesign that delivers exceptional craftsmanship in our thinnest, lightest form factors yet. We're also bringing XPS 13 back as our most accessible XPS ever. In gaming, we're building on recent momentum and effectively doubling Alienware's notebook lineup. These moves are about broadening our portfolio and expanding our coverage so we can reach more customers with the best products at every price point."
XPS Returns with Complete Redesign
Dell is bringing back XPS with a streamlined design. For the first time, the iconic XPS logo appears on the laptop cover, signaling its return. The new XPS 14 and XPS 16 feature a sleek design crafted from CNC-machined aluminum, refined interfaces, stunning displays and optimized performance. These devices have the best battery life in the industryi, delivering up to 27 hours of Netflix streamingii or 40+ hours with local video playbackiii.
These are Dell’s thinnest laptopsiv, measuring just 14.6mm. The XPS 14 weighs roughly three pounds – more than half a pound lighter than the previous generation – and the XPS 16 comes in at 3.6 pounds, almost a full pound lighter than its predecessor. Available with tandem OLED display options and Intel® Core™ Ultra Series 3 processors and built-in Intel® Arc graphics featuring 12 Xe cores, the new XPS line delivers impressive visuals with the perfect balance of portability and performance.
Later this year, Dell will expand the XPS portfolio with new products across different price points and form factors, including the return of the XPS 13, expected to be the thinnest and lightest XPS laptop ever, offered at the most accessible XPS price yet.

With these additions, Alienware ensures there's something for everyone—from dedicated gaming enthusiasts to casual gamers to those with hybrid interests.
Alienware debuts anti-glare OLED displays on the 16 Area-51 and 16X Aurora laptops, delivering stunning OLED visuals with breakthrough anti-glare technology. Responding to one of the top requests from the community, these displays let gamers experience the deep blacks, vibrant colors and exceptional contrast of OLED in any lighting condition. These laptops, along with the Alienware 18 Area-51, feature the powerful new Intel® Core™ Ultra 200HX processors. Additionally, the Alienware Area-51 Desktop is equipped with AMD's new Ryzen™ 9850X3D processor and 3D V-Cache™ technology, pushing the ceiling of gaming performance.
