I always play with this laptop on my daily lunch walk in Best buy. This laptop is very nice in hardware and Windows ARM is very usable, but not for all. This a very good deal, but 60hz can be a deal breaker for many.
Prices of Windows on ARM laptops are falling like a rock shortly after they were launched. I wouldn't be surprised to see them at clearance prices soon.
Do not get this laptop, in the infinite wisdom of the idiot designers dell hires the touchpad doesn't have any clear boundaries it's just roughly in the middle of the palm rest. So you can't tell either through feel or by looking where the track pad ends, absolutely terrible design. Then the keyboard is one of the worst typing experiences i've had on a laptop because they keys don't have a clear separation between them and the spacing also feel very off vs every other keyboard I've ever used, this is especially noticeable on the right side of the keyboard. It also still has a lot of software bugs in windows like process just going blank completely and only showing their background color for a few seconds then going back to normal. It also has random periods of really awful battery life where it just starts to drain for no reason.

Agreed. I keep looking at the keyboard images and can't bring myself to upgrade. I have an XPS 13" from just a couple of years ago. That design is way better. The keys were actually spaced out properly. I don't like the way the XPS laptop line has morphed. My last few laptops have been XPS. I may need to look for a new brand/model.

Which laptops that are 13" can graphics card support hdmi 2.1 and more than 60hz on laptop?

I feel like this is a weird way to ask that question. Most 14" can and with the same screen aspect ratio and you only have to get a laptop with a 9% bigger display.

While I don't entirely disagree, I will say both the boundary around the touchpad and the typing experience are both things I've almost immediately adjusted to when playing with this laptop and the 14. Personally I don't like the smaller 13.4" size and the capacitive function row are bigger issues. Honestly, typing on it is pretty great to me at this point and I have never needed a boundary on a touchpad to know where everything is. It's the only other product line from any manufacturer currently equal in build quality to the surface laptop 7. If only they didn't alienate a lot of people with their weird decisions. Still, if looking at this, just go with the $999 surface laptop and upgrade the storage yourself. Either that, or spend a bit extra on the Asus PX13. That thing is absolutely phenomenal. Or if you don't need a dedicated GPU, the Asus Zenbook S14 with Intel is probably the best option currently once it goes on sale for $100 to $200 off.
