Dell has unveiled a platter of deals on its laptops this Black Friday, with our choice being the company’s outstanding XPS 13. When we reviewed the 2018 model, we found a lot to love with its stunning design and class-leading performance. We even called it the “sexiest 13.3in Windows 10 laptop”, although that might say more about us than the machine.

In either case, the XPS 13 is now cheaper on Dell’s website. There are a pair of reductions, depending on what processor you opt for. The i5 model has had a price cut from £1,219 to £1,019, where the more powerful i7 model has had its price cut from £1,519 to £1,274. Both are a drop of 16% from the original price.

If you’re looking for the biggest saving, the i7 will net you an extra £245. That’s a solid bargain on an impressive laptop. If you’re in the market for something that’s light and portable, the XPS 13’s 13.3in display makes it easy to pack-up and tuck into a backpack.

Here’s a bit more about the XPS 13, from our review: “Dell’s latest XPS 13 might not be a dramatic shake-up, but this 2018 redesign is enough to reignite interest in the range: adding Coffee Lake CPUs, an impressive battery life, a Rose Gold finish, weight and size reductions, and more USB Type-C ports than you can shake a USB cable at. The new XPS 13 also hands in exceptional performance.”

If you’d rather shop around, head over to our best laptops page for a wider range of discounts on Windows machines. You might want to consider, for example, the slightly more expensive XPS 15, or the LG Gram – which comes with a bigger screen.

Despite its name, Black Friday deals spread out over a couple of weeks. We’ll be covering the latest and greatest bargains throughout.
