Dell has launched the XPS 14 and XPS 16 in India, bringing its redesigned premium laptop lineup to buyers looking for thinner machines with newer Intel hardware, OLED display options, and Copilot+ PC support.
The XPS 14 carries model number DA14260, while the XPS 16 is listed as DA16260. Both use a CNC aluminum body with Gorilla Glass 3 on the palm rest and Gorilla Glass Victus for added protection. Dell has also moved the XPS logo to the center of the lid, a small visual change based on user feedback.
The XPS 14 can be configured with an Intel Core Ultra 7 355 or Core Ultra X7 358H processor, while the XPS 16 gets the Intel Core Ultra X7 358H. Both include Intel AI Boost NPU support with up to 50 TOPS, Intel integrated or Intel Arc graphics on select configurations, and up to 32GB LPDDR5X memory. Storage options include 512GB or 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD on the XPS 14, while the XPS 16 comes with a 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD.
Dell says AI performance is up to 57% faster on the XPS 14 and up to 78% faster on the XPS 16. Graphics performance is claimed to be more than 50% faster than the previous generation. The cooling system uses larger and thinner fans, up to 61% bigger, with claims of an 8°C cooler base and up to 36% lower noise.
The XPS 14 offers a 14-inch 2K LCD or 2.8K OLED touch display, with up to 500 nits brightness, up to 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision, and Eyesafe. The XPS 16 gets a 16-inch 3.2K OLED touch screen with 400 nits typical brightness, 500 nits peak brightness, 20Hz to 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision, and Eyesafe. Dell says the Tandem OLED panel cuts power use by up to 30%, while the 2K LCD option reduces it by up to 15%.
Both laptops include an 8MP 4K HDR camera with Windows Hello, 1080p video clarity, quad speakers rated at 10W with Dolby Atmos, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, TPM 2.0, a zero-lattice keyboard, and a haptic touchpad. Ports include three Thunderbolt 4 ports and an audio jack. Both models use a 70Wh battery with 900 Wh/L density and support 100W USB-C charging. Dell claims up to 27 hours of Netflix streaming and more than 40 hours of local video playback.
