Dell has announced a new XPS 13 laptop, which the company is positioning as a competitor to the MacBook Neo. The announcement was made at Computex, following a tease from Dell at CES earlier this year.
The new XPS 13 is scheduled to launch in July. According to The Verge, the device returns as a budget-friendly option with a promotional student price of $599. Engadget reported that the laptop starts at $599 for students or $699 for all other customers.
ZDNet noted that the new XPS 13 retains premium features, including a touchscreen display and a backlit keyboard. The outlet reported that the device "takes aim at the MacBook Neo" with these features.
The Verge described Dell as "making good on its tease from CES" with the announcement. The outlet had previously reported on Dell's hints about the product line at the consumer electronics show.
The XPS 13's pricing positions it below many premium laptop offerings. The promotional student pricing of $599 represents a discount from the standard $699 price point available to other buyers, according to Engadget's reporting.
