Our Verdict

Dell XPS 13 (2024)

HP OmniBook Ultra Flip 14 (2024)

The HP OmniBook Ultra Flip 14 (2024) and the Dell XPS 13 (2024) are both premium ultraportables designed for general productivity. However, the OmniBook is a 2-in-1 convertible with pen input support, whereas the XPS 13 is a more traditional clamshell model. The OmniBook provides a better user experience overall, mainly because the XPS 13's keyboard and touchpad design requires a lot more adaptation, and even then, it still doesn't feel quite as good as the OmniBook in terms of usability. The OmniBook also has an additional USB-C port and a longer battery life, and it doesn't throttle as nearly as much as the XPS 13 in heavy, sustained workloads.
