Dell were once the mainstay of the laptop and desktop market but have had to succumb to the inexorable rise of the Apple behemoth but that doesn’t mean to say that they don’t still produce top class machines and, so far as laptops under £1000 are concerned, you’ll be hard pressed to find many more capable than the Dell XPS 13. There are impressive features jumping off the page all over the place with the XPS 13 from Dell but the ones that are probably the biggest standouts for a laptop of this price are a nigh-on borderless infinity display, Intel Core i5 – i7 CPU, powerful processor with a great battery life. If you had to pick one laptop under £500, this would probably be it.
