The XPS 13 2-in-1 is coming back with Intel Amber Lake SoCs for $1000 USD

The XPS 13 convertible is returning next month with refreshed Intel 8th gen Y-series CPUs. Dell will be sticking with the same design, but they have suggested that the series has been successful enough that a full refresh will almost surely happen sometime down the road.

Latitude 7390 2-in-1 is the real deal, not XPS. A likely explanation for crippling the CPU is that Dell probably doesn't want the XPS 13 2-in-1 cannibalizing their best-selling clamshell model.

Jerry,

XPS 13 2-in-1 is significantly more portable. If you are getting a convertible, that matters huge.

David, the Latitude 73xx series are based on XPS 13 hence they share a nearly identical chassis and form factor. And there are numerous 2-in-1 alternatives that surpass either of these laptops in terms of portability.
