It's expensive

Weak speakers

Only two USB ports which limits connectivity unless you add the optional docking station
With a starting price of Rs 94,990, the XPS 12 is one expensive notebook, even for an Ultrabook. While it does have a very good feature set, behind the fancy new rotating screen, it's a very average performing notebook. The hybrid nature of the device is...
You have to be a very specific kind of computer user to really love this one. The XPSs main virtue is that its a great laptop that you can use like a real laptop—along with an awesome, touchable display.But its ergonomics as a tablet just dont make muc...

Abstract: With Windows 8 bringing improved touch functionality to the table, manufacturers have sought various ways to put a touch display on their premium offerings. The XPS 12 by Dell does this by putting their monitor within an aluminium frame, which contains a ...
Sleek design, Solid build with materials made up of carbon fiber, aluminium and magnesium, Good IPS display with full HD resolution
Fan noise when doing intensive tasks, Horrible trackpad, Heavy for a 12.5″ ultrabook (1.54kg), Weak battery life
Priced at SGD$1,828, the general consumers might find it a little pricey for a Windows 8 laptop and hence, I think that the Dell XPS 12 is not targeted towards them but more for first movers who want to give this new form factor a try.Despite being slight...
Hermoso diseño, Construcción sólida y bien pensada, Excelente duración de batería, Rendimiento de sistema muy rápido, GPU integrada capaz, Display multitáctil brillante y sensible, Teclado genial, Touchpad espacioso
Temperaturas incómodas bajo estrés, Le vendría bien un tercer puerto USB
Calidad del teclado, el trackpad y la pantalla, Potencia a la altura de los mejores portátiles del mercado, Disco SSD de 256 Gbytes
Está más pensado para ser utilizado como portátil que como tableta, Exceso de calor en la base cuando se usa plegado

la Dell XPS 12 es un equipo convertible de pantalla táctil delgado, potente e ingeniosamente diseñado que ofrece varias posiciones de pantalla
a pesar del despliegue publicitario alrededor de las funciones táctiles y la tableta con Windows 8, la XPS 12 funciona mejor como computadora portátil. La duración de la batería es otra desventaja
Dell ha renovado su concepto de computadora portátil Duo giratoria y ofrece ahora la mejorada XPS 12, pero igual que la mayoría de los equipos convertibles, es mejor como computadora portátil que como tableta....
