Laptop Dell XPS 10 XPS10-3636BLK Deals & Reviews

M. Anaximenes (Boston, MA): Overall, the Asus VivoTab was my selection as I found that it outperformed the competition in the areas critical to our business need, however the Dell XPS stacks up fairly well and deserves an honorable mention as the runner up. While Dell Tablets aren't generally viewed as the top of the heap these days, they have produced a viable, quality and well built offering in the XPS 10. Prior to this one, my last experience with a Dell tab was with the Streak, an android powered device which I found unremarkable. I am happy to say that the overall build and design of the XPS is a dramatic improvement and offers far greater durability, battery life and screen responsiveness.


ST (Portland, OR): First things first.
Amazon seems to have some incorrect specs and information on the 'XPS 10' I hope to clear this up for some of you. The following is the latest information on the xps10 Tablet.
XPS 10 OS is windows 'RT' NOT windows '8' (that is the Latitude 10 tablet)
XPS 10 CPU is the 'Qualcom Snapdragon S4 dual core 1.5 ghz' NOT the 'Intel Atom'
and again (that is the Latitude 10 tablet).
XPS 10 Has dual band WiFi plus Bluetooth 4.0 NOT single band WiFi, and once again (that is the Latitude 10) and there are a few other things which I do not need to go into.


West Boston NiNi (MA USA): There is a very EASY search method to use at the 'Windows app store' when you are searching for a specific app, For example I needed an app which would play 'mpg' format vids, now I knew the app store had an app that could play these vids because every time my tablet refused to play that format it would end by saying 'There is an app at the app store which can play this format, Now without puting too fine a point on the matter, there are alot of apps at the store and It would take forever to look through them all, and yes I did spend a few hours searching, hence my uninformed badmouthing of Microsoft, well these boys were alot smarter than I thought and as it turns out 'smarter than me'. While at the 'Windows App Store' looking for an app, do the following,,,,swipe your finger from the Right side outside edge inward, this will bring up a menu of 'Icons' select the one which looks like a magnifying glass and tap it.


Chad Hensley (Purcell, OK United States): XPS 10 - Performance is good with Windows RT. Everything works well. Performance is much better than the old Atom netbooks and even the one I had before this one that had an AMD-C50 and 4GB of RAM. There have been a number of system updates and it seems they have fixed a few buggy behaviors that existed out of the box. Battery life is very good, excellent with the keyboard dock. I unplug in the morning, use it all day and still have life left at the end of the day. Screen quality is much better than a netbook. Wireless performance is good, better than other portable devices we have in our home and office including iPads. The keyboard is much better than a netbook keyboard, but the touchpad is sensitive and doesn't have palm rejection. Media playback is a strength, with strong video playback performance and good speakers for a device this size. The keyboard dock has one strange limitation. The tablet drains it's battery all the way before it starts using the battery in the keyboard dock, so you cannot undock the tablet when the battery is drained without it immediately shutting down, even though you can use it for many more hours if it stays docked.
