Is the brightness and the anti-glare the same for the 1080p and the 4k screen?
What does Dell estimate that the difference in battery life would be, using those two screens?

The brightness rating for both is indeed the same at 500nits. I don’t believe the anti-glare and anti-blue eye safe technology put into the 1080p will be a part of the 4k system. Comparing the two on dells website indicate this is true but it does not say yes or no specifically. Although, I believe the 4k screens goal is secular in wanting an absolutely beautiful screen while the 1080p offers extra benefits like the anti-glare and eye safe technology. According to the web, no 4k screens are good with glare, quite the opposite actually.

Battery question is answered in depth above but is sold as 1080p-17hr 4k-12hr

I’m coming from using a fan-less Windows Surface Pro. Isn’t the constant hot air coming from the fans in the New XPS 13 2-in-1 Laptop going to be a problem for those who primarily use the laptop on their laps? Or do the fans only come on when needed?

Hi. The fans need to work to maintain the temperature inside the CPU specially while the processor is handling CPU intensive applications and hence it is always recommended to use the system on a flat surface.

Is it a lap-top and a tablet?

Hi. This is not a tablet but a laptop with touch screen capabilities and also the ability to tilt the screen to an angle which replicates of it’s usage like a tablet. Hence, it is called as a 2-in-1.

Do you know if the new dell XPS 13 2in1 (7390) will be offered with Windows Pro as the information page on the Dell website only mentions Windows Home.

I’m sure it will be offered with pro. They do that will all their products. Even if they don’t you could just upgrade it your self in the windows store.

Hello,
I’m wondering when the XPS 13 2in1 7390 is released in Europe (Germany). I’m willing to pre order but on the website Dell.de I cannot finde any information.
Thank you for your help!

As of 7/31/19 there is no way to pre order the new 2-in-1, with unofficial release dates set for “August.” Keep in mind it will most likely be released in the US first and depending on Intel’s ability to keep up with demand for the new ice lake processor will remain a US product. 

I’m just guessing though, purely assuming that is the reason for all of the release delays. It could release all over the world at the same time, who knows!

differences between the current and new not yet launched xps 2-in-1

Too many things for this thread… Something you should Google.

However, most notably: the new 10nm ice lake processor, new cooling system, new mag-lev keyboard, new hinge, and finger-print reading power button.
