Popular subcompact. The Xiaomi "copycat" performs surprisingly well against the more established XPS 13 9360 and the latest MacBook Pro 13. Its cut corners, however, become very obvious after spending more time with the Chinese-made notebook.

The Macbook pro 13 model you used is inconsistent throughout the article, you started with "no touch bar" model and then the performance results are of the "touch bar" model but then again the photos are of "no touch bar" model. So which of the macbooks were evaluated in your verdict? :)
For these to be the ultimate reviews and comparisons (e.g. trying to keep it positive!), they needs a few more sections:
1. Reliability. My mac hardware has already failed once, covered by AppleCare ($$), which only happened with my very first Toshiba, a long time ago.
2. Hidden costs. Are free security apps reliable? Is paid security reliable? Can you go without Apple care?
3. Out of the box security, MacOS vs Windows, any potential malware from a Chinese manufacturer in particular. In other words while a semi secure Windows is possible, how much effort and vigilance does it require from the user, in hours per day; it is up to the user how to determine the cost of this effort. What risks are average / most users running if they never install a decent security app: stolen bank and store credentials, lost info, blackmail, lost productivity.
4. Medium term durability. Not easy when you have to buy the laptops, but perhaps your readers can help.
Self-mirroish stupid glossy screen is for better outdoor visibility than pure matte screen on XPS13, really? And what happened with sRGB coverage of FHD screen on DELL that was about 99% on 9350 models?
