The lid and top of the base are made from aluminum, which provides the 13-inch laptop with high-quality haptics as well as a decent stability. The case can only be warped minimally, and the hinges are up to their task. However, the stability hits its limits below the keyboard and in the top area of the palm rests, where surfaces bend under even a slight amount of pressure, such as when we press down in the top third of the Click Pad.
The easy maintenance deserves some praise. After removing numerous screws, you can simply lift off the bottom plate, as long as you start at the hinge. Unfortunately, the working memory is soldered in, so you are committed to the 8 GB when you purchase the device. You can only replace the M.2 2280 SSD and the Wi-Fi card. The double fans are necessary because of the high TDP, and in addition to the 35-Watt CPU, they also have to cool the Ge force MX450 at the same time.
While there is no card reader, there are two Thunderbolt 4 (Type-C) ports that both support DisplayPort. One of them can also handle Power Delivery, and this is also the only way to charge the laptop with the corresponding 65-Watt charger. The remaining USB Type-A port is implemented as a fold-out port, which is a good solution for the visuals.
Wi-Fi 6 AX201 from Intel is used as the WLAN. In our test with our Net gear Nighthawk RAX120 reference router, the transfer rates range between good and slightly below average. Bluetooth 5.2 is included, but nothing else is possible in terms of low power.
Input Devices
The gray chiclet keyboard suffers from its weak support below, which becomes particularly noticeable when you press the keys with some force. The matte, non-slip keys offer a pronounced pressure point, a moderate stroke height, and a soft stroke. Typing occurs almost silently. Thanks to the white, two-step keyboard background illumination, you can also work without any problems in darker surroundings.
Overall, you can work swiftly using the large Shift, Ctrl, and arrow keys in the wide keyboard area, without the spongy base becoming much of a problem.
The Click Pad is responsive up to the corners, offers a short stroke height, and operates almost silently. While we find the short stroke unsatisfactory, this might be a matter of personal taste. The matte surface offers a low resistance to the fingers and is not slippery.
Display
The Full HD AUO panel offers several advantages. It is bright, non-reflective, covers 100% of the sRGB color space, and offers IPS typical wide viewing angles. Sure, the brightness could even be higher for using it outside, but with 318 cd/m² you already have something to work with, particularly since there is no throttling in battery operation.
The above “The Witcher 3 Ultra – Graphics stress for the MX450” shows how the GPU clock speeds drops from 1800 in the first minutes to 1200 MHz, because the system tries to reduce the heat development from almost 70 ºC (158 ºF) down to significantly below 60 ºC (140 ºF). The throttling also happens in other games, as “Strange Brigade” or “X Plane 11.11” also show.
So in short, while Dell uses a powerful version of the MX450 with 25 watts, it is not being used to its full advantage. Even the slowest N18S-LP version in the HP Envy 13-ba1475ng gets a better performance in real games in some respects (“The Witcher 3,” “X-Plane 11.11“).

Emissions and Power Management
Noise Emissions
During idle operation, the double fans are quiet. They are turned off, regardless of whether we choose the Ultra Performance, Optimized, or Quiet mode. We ran the performance test in the Ultra Performance mode and the battery test in the Optimized mode.
Under load, the noise level approaches up to 48 dB(A), which can be influenced by the selection of a Dell performance mode. In Quiet mode, the noise volume drops to 44 and in Optimized mode to 46 dB(A).

Temperature
During idle operation, the 13-inch laptop remains cool and we measure an average of barely 28 ºC (82 ºF). Under high load (“The Witcher 3“) – with the GPU throttling – the resulting average temperature is 37 ºC (99 ºF) on top, with some spots registering 52 ºC (126 ºF).
Our stress test with Prime95 and Furmark evaluates how the system is able to handle maximum load over a longer time period. Here the surface temperatures will increase further (58 ºC, 136 ºF on top), with the temperatures at the core leveling out at just above 60 ºC (140 ºF) after a peak of 82 ºC (180 ºF). The package power lies at 15 watts after 3 minutes, and it was only able to maintain 25 watts for 2 minutes. There is no performance reduction right after the stress test.

(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 28.4 °C / 83.1 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(±) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.3 °C / 82.9 F (-0.1 °C / -0.2 F).
Speakers
There is not much to complain in the two stereo speakers. Although there is hardly any bass due to the small form factor, the sound is pleasant otherwise. You can even play videos and some music using these speakers without any problems, and you don’t necessarily need headphones or external speakers. The speakers are located below the palm rest, pointing downwards toward the desktop. The dual array microphone records voices cleanly with little additional noise and is suited for conferences.

Power Consumption
During idle operation, the power consumption ranges between 3.6 and 10 watts, which is a normal value for a 13-inch laptop with a good TFT brightness. Under load, this increases up to 64 watts, with peaks significantly above this value. The fact that the power supply heats up to 58 ºC (136 ºF) during the stress test is an indication for its being overextended and perhaps also the reason for the below-average performance development of the Intel processor.
The power consumption during the stress test shows a decrease from 68 to 62 watts after almost 2 minutes. This is also the time when the clock speed is reduced further from the already lower 2400 MHz in steps down to 1700 MHz. During “The Witcher 3” Ultra – the highest load in gaming – this performance reduction behavior also occurs in minute two.

Battery Life
The 54-watthour battery capacity ensures a battery life of a good 10 hours in practice, which we tested in our Wi-Fi test at 150 cd/m² brightness. The flat Lithium-Polymer battery is split into two, as if the small area was initially reserved for SATA but is now available.
