Dell XPS 13 getting the quad-core Kaby Lake-R treatment

[Redaktion]

One of our favorite subnotebooks is coming with i5-8250U and i7-8550U CPU options and a claimed performance boost of 44 percent over 7th gen Kaby Lake.

No buy for XPS as long as full-bandwidth TB is dellayed >:(

Same... but this is disappointing, will have wait for the razer blade stealth refresh instead.

The fun part is, that if you take 8 gen CPU, you will lose Iris pro GPU and will fall back pretty strongly on that front. So it feels like somewhat crappy update

Will be waiting for this on Lenovo Thinkpad and Yoga as well as the MX150 and 1040 updates.
