TL;DR: As of June 16, students can shop the new XPS 13 laptop for as low as $599 from Dell.
Students on the hunt for a budget-friendly laptop may be inclined to look at the shiny new MacBook Neo, but Dell is dropping some exciting competition in the form of the new XPS 13 laptop. Pricing starts at $699, but students can actually score this new model for as low as $599.
This student offer lasts until Nov. 2, so there's plenty of time to take advantage of this deal ahead of the next school year. It's open to high school students starting at 16-years-old and college students who are going to degree granting schools, but it's worth keeping in mind that students must join Dell Rewards or be a current member and verify student status to save.
Another important thing to keep in mind is that the offer is only valid for XPS 13 models with Series 3 Intel Core Processors. It excludes any model that's fitted with the Series 3 Intel Core Ultra Processors.
The XPS 13 laptop is actually a tiny bit lighter than the Neo, starting at 2.2 pounds compared to the Neo's 2.7 pounds, so carrying it between classes will be a breeze. It also features a sleek design that houses a 2.5K LCD touchscreen and backlit keyboard, alongside the Intel Core processor and WiFi 7 inside. It's capable of running up to 17 hours while streaming thanks to a great battery life. That beats the Neo, which is listed as lasting up to 16 hours.
This offer on the XPS 13 laptop lasts until Nov. 2 for students. Don't miss out on this great opportunity to scoop up this new laptop for as low as $599.
