Dell Adamo XPS 13-inch Thinnest Laptop

After Dell posted the first teaser photo for its new insanely thin Adamo XPS, we tried to work out how what form factor Dell went for. There was a lot of speculation that Dell would launch smaller, Atom-based Adamo models, but if our math is to be trusted, the Adamo XPS is a bit bigger.

It turns out it’s roughly 340mm wide, pretty much like Apple’s MacBook Air, meaning we’re looking at a proper 13-inch ultraportable, not an netbook. Of course, there’s always a chance Dell will use an Pine Trail CPU in it. After all Dell was the first company to launch a 12-inch Atom netbook, in spite of Intel’s and Microsoft’s restrictions, but sticking a puny Atom in an XPS branded Adamo just doesn’t sound right.

So, at this point it’s probably safe to assume that the XPS is CULV-based. It’s also the prime candidate for 32nm Arrandale ULV parts once they start shipping next year. Speculating on the price is probably not a good idea, as we doubt many people will be able to afford it.
