Priced at $1,449 (£1,149, AU$1,999), what you see above is the second best configuration that the XPS 13 you can put together. The UK model is slightly different in that you can't get the QHD+ screen upgrade without automatically bumping up to an Intel Core i7 CPU.
For quite a bit less, you could get a Lenovo Yoga 900 with double the storage and a faster Core i7 processor for $1,299 (£1,449, AU$2,599). Similarly, you can pick up the 13-inch MacBook Air for $1,449 (£1,209, AU$2,249) after upgrading to an Intel Core i7 CPU and increasing the memory to 8GB – but there's nothing you can do about the significantly duller, 1,440 x 900 display.
If a high-resolution screen is superfluous to you, there's the option of dropping down to the non-touch, 1080p version for $999 (£849, AU$1,799). In the US, you'll also find a unique $799 configuration, edging it into the budget space with only an Intel Core i3 CPU, 4GB of RAM and 128GB SSD.
