43 hours battery life: Dell XPS 14 2026 lasts almost 3x longer vs MacBook Air 15 M5 in web browsing test

[Redaktion]

The Dell XPS 14 2026 has phenomenal battery life thanks to the large 70 Wh battery and the efficient Intel Panther Lake APUs. According to Hardware Canucks' testing, the Dell XPS 14 2026 can last over 43 hours when doing simple web browsing.

It means: Notebookcheck screwed up this time - you should make battery tests with and without VRR. Big disappointment.

Looked promising but the XPS 14 really needs to be 1KG max and just dump the stupid glass palm rest idea.

I'm looking on Dell pro 3 annoucements and it looks it will have similar VRR IPS screen, battery 70Wh, normal touchpad and keyboard = can be better than xps14.

We will see :)
