Very nice build and form factor. Rather underhanded that I can't upgrade memory. The trackpad is terribly noisy and erratic executing two-finger scrolls, even with pinch gestures disabled.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Dear User,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear you have come across some issues with your XPS 7390 that has made it less than enjoyable. For the trackpad trouble, some Notebooks and Tablets with Keyboards have added gesture features to the touchpad hardware and drivers. A few of these features are two or three-finger scrolling, pinch zoom, circle zoom, rotate, and swiping. These new features may be the reason for the erratic cursor movement since most are turned on by default. You can disable or modify the way the features work in the touchpad driver properties. Here are some tips to modify these settings:
1. In the Search box, type main.cpl. 2. Touch or click main.cpl in the list of programs. 3. Touch or click the Dell Touchpad tab. 4. Touch or click on the picture of the touchpad. 5. Touch or click Gestures (depending on your computer there may not be a Gestures option). 6. Change the options as preferred. 7. Touch or click Save. 8. Touch or click the X in the upper-right corner to close the Dell Touchpad Utility. 9. Touch or click OK on the Mouse Properties window. 10. If the touchpad still does not work after following the preceding steps, refer to Dell Knowledge Base article - http://dell.to/2iaiujA.

This laptop is like the best laptop for my limited work. It has got a good battery life, wow webcam and can play the best quality videos too. All the other hardware looks of superior quality for higher performance. One of the best you can get, if you want a portable laptop
I have had the Dell XPS 13 7390 for just a short time, and it does take a little bit of adjusting, particularly going from a 23" monitor and desktop setup. So far I am enjoying the portability and updated generation of I7 processor.
I got my dell XPS 13 7390 and I must say for a week now of using this machine, it is joy using it for my daily work. Battery life is super, fan noise is on the minimum and will recommend it for anyone.
