The Dell XPS 13 brand has a long story of excellence. Dell may have retired this branding at CES 2025 but that doesn't mean this laptop is any less great today than it was when we reviewed it in the fall of 2024. And right now you can snag it for $200 below retail during Dell's New Year Event.

While several configurations are on sale, we're calling out this Dell XPS 13 laptop iteration now on sale for $1,549. That's a $200 savings over the usual price, and it is for a stacked, step-up Intel "Lunar Lake" processor model with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD.

When we tested the Dell XPS 13, we gave it 4 out of 5 stars for its excellent all-around performance and impressive, lightweight design. This model remains one of our best laptops in 2025 and best laptop deals in January 2025. And that's all because the Dell XPS 13 leads Intel Lunar Lake laptops with an astounding 18+ hours of battery life.

In other words, this is the model to grab if you want never-ending battery life that frees you from needing an outlet during the day.

If you prefer to spend less or more, Dell lets you configure your system further by adding features like a 2TB SSD or a 3K touchscreen. However, the version we recommend is an excellent starting place with a better-than-basic configuration.

Dell new year laptop deals are only as good as stock permits, so I recommend you grab it while you still can.
