Dell's new convertible is a bitter disappointment, at least in the configuration we have tested. It is even more frustrating that the device has the potential to be a great laptop, but it has let down by several vital failings. We urge you read on nonetheless as cheaper models could improve upon the areas in which this laptop disappoints.

Who wrote this review? In cons there is no display port. IT HAS display port. Look at the USB-C and the "d" sign. And other nonsense is that HDMI 1.4 DOES NOT support 4K in 60Hz. 4k60Hz is supported from HDMI 2.0 or through that USB-C with display port. And 280 nits is not dark display in my opinion. Dark is 200 nits in dell's shitty 14 inch inspiron.

TooHighPPI

"The screen has a 331 PPI pixel density, which should be high enough for you not to notice any individual pixels at typical viewing distances"

331ppi is way too high ppi and basically forces you to set 250% Windows scaling for a reasonable ui size.

In comparison, the 267ppi / 3000x2000 13.5" Surface Book 2 display needs 200% windows scaling which works great with 27" 4K UHD displays since it gives you effectively 1920x1080 pixel / 82ppi workspace with twice the sharpness.

A too high ppi on the internal display creates a lot of issues when connecting to an external display since it requires you to use a different % scaling on either display which is still a PIA with Win32 software in 2019 (you basically need to restart everytime you dock to the external monitor so programms can reopen and adjust to the different % scaling). Microsoft introduced dpi awareness before Vista launch in 2005 but it still doesn't work 14 years later and probably never will.

Oh and a 84% rating for Laptop that won't last 4 hours webbrowsing in 2019 - seriously guys?
