Title: Asus ZenBook S13 UX392FN vs. Dell XPS 13 9380: the GeForce power difference
Post by: Redaktion on May 02, 2019, 23:05:16
Ever wanted an XPS 13 but found its screen too small and graphics too slow? The Asus ZenBook S13 UX392FN offers a larger display and much more powerful GPU while being lighter and almost the same size as the Dell equivalent for about the same price.

Thanks a lot for the much-awaited comparison... and this one is detailed as always rather than just specs diff. Great job.

Couple of question:

1. S13 seems to lack by 2x v/s XPS13 in many tests in CrystalDiskMark. How does that affect code compilation, file transfer etc?

2. Under load, are palm rests hotter in S13 (metal) v/s XPS13 (carbon fiber)?

Also any news on the availability of S13? it's already May... :(

Also, is coil whine issue fixed in XPS13 9380? How is S13 w.r.t. coil whine?
