The Dell XPS 13 9350 and Dell XPS 14 9440 are both on sale from Dell itself at $300 off, lowering their prices to $1,100 and $1,260, respectively.

Are you in the market for a new laptop? You simply can’t go wrong with any of the Dell XPS deals that are available, and we’ve identified two of the best ones you can shop right now. The Dell XPS 13 9350, originally sold for $1,400, is down to $1,100 for savings of $300, while the Dell XPS 14 9440, which has a sticker price of $1,560, is on sale for $1,260, also following a $300 discount.

Following the Dell XPS reset early last year, the Dell XPS 13 and the Dell XPS 14 have further blossomed in popularity. That means you’ll have to act fast if you’re interested in either of these laptop deals though, as the stocks up for sale may run out at any moment.

The Dell XPS 13 9350 is a Copilot+ PC, which means it’s a laptop that’s built to maximize the features of Microsoft’s Copilot and Windows 11 Home. Using the powerful AI assistant will be a breeze with the laptop’s Intel Core Ultra 7 256V processor, Intel Arc Graphics, and 16GB of RAM. The device also features a 13.4-inch Full HD+ screen that’s sharp and colorful, a 512GB SSD for ample storage space for your files and apps, and two Thunderbolt 4 ports along with a DisplayPort for connectivity.

The Dell XPS 14 9440 is a slightly larger cousin to the Dell XPS 13 9350, with a 14.5-inch display offering 2K resolution for even better sharpness. It also provides reliable performance with its Intel Core Ultra 7 155H processor, Intel Arc Graphics, and 16GB of RAM, for a productivity boost whether you’re going to use it for work or school. The Dell XPS 14 provides three Thunderbolt 4 ports, a DisplayPort, and a headset port so that you can use it with your monitor and all of your accessories. The laptop ships with Windows 11 Pro pre-loaded in its 512GB SSD, giving you access to the more advanced features of the operating system.

Speech-to-text apps have flooded the App Store, making it easier than ever to type on our Macs with just our voice. I have previously covered one such app called TypeWhisper. However, there has been a dearth of good text-to-speech models, and most of the good ones are locked behind a subscription.

Ollama, an open-source app that lets you run local AI models on your computer, wants to change that. It works on macOS, Windows, and Linux, and your prompts are never stored or used for training. 

Did you think hitting delete on your AI chatbot conversation actually makes it disappear? Georgia Tech researchers just proved that's not entirely true. They have built a forensic tool called ORISA that can dig deleted conversations from your phone and even rebuild them into a working chatbot session you can keep talking to.

How can ORISA bring deleted AI conversations back?

Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind. 

The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).
