Limited time offer: Dell Rewards Members earn extra $50 back on any XPS PC. Offer ends July 1st. (FREE sign-up here)

As part of the now live Back to School sale, Dell is offering its Dell Rewards members a FREE $50 store credit for a limited time with the purchase of any XPS laptop, including the brand-new XPS 13 touchscreen notebook at $699 shipped. The credit can be put toward a wide range of Dell accessories, many of which also see regular discounts. While it’s not a straight-up cash discount, this is still a notable offer arriving just weeks after the new XPS 13 officially went on sale. This is also on top of the student-exclusive $599 price you can get for this notebook, making this a stellar deal if you’re in the market for a new everyday laptop for school.

This new XPS 13 goes head to head with Apple’s MacBook Neo as a great value pick for students and folks looking to buy a new everyday laptop. It does have a lot going for it over the entry-level MacBook Neo, though, including a thin and lightweight chassis, a 13.4-inch 2.5K 120Hz touchscreen, and Wi-Fi 7, among other things. You also get Intel’s newer Core 5 320 chip, a pair of USB-C ports, and even a backlit keyboard.

Dell 2026 XPS 13 Windows laptop features:

Razor-thin and featherlight, it’s our thinnest and lightest XPS laptop yet^[3]. Easy to carry everywhere – in a backpack, tote or even one-handed from meeting to meeting. And with long battery life, it helps to keep you productive on the go, wherever your day takes you.
Built with authentic craftsmanship that makes XPS iconic, it delivers exceptional quality in an ultra thin design. CNC aluminum is machined incredibly thin yet is still durable and removes jointed parts and empty space for a solid build quality and tighter gap control. As the entry to the XPS family, this laptop sets a new standard for its class – delivering elevated design, durability, and craftsmanship from the very first touch.
The XPS 13 is an incredibly small laptop, making it perfect for even the tightest spaces. Whether it’s a compact desk, an airplane tray table, or in your bag, it fits effortlessly — with room to spare.
