What make the XPS line so attractive is Dell's InfinityEdge tech display which makes the screen virtually bezel less giving it an elegant edge-to-edge look. This coupled with the 360 degree hinge means users can now take the laptop and fold it back into a variety of different configurations, from tent to kiosk to tablet.
