Dell 16 Plus 2-in-1 review: Technically proficient but lacking soul

engadget.com Unknown 2026-04-03 04:30:03

In previous years, the Dell 16 Plus 2-in-1 probably would have been called an Inspiron. However, after the company revamped its naming scheme earlier this year, all of its consumer PCs now share its name, with a few extra identifiers that call out size, design and status (aka how fancy it is). While I still think Dell’s choice to ditch the iconic XPS tag is a mistake, streamlining its portfolio makes a lot of sense, especially for people simply looking to buy a new laptop.

Your jump from Windows 10 to Linux gets easier with KDE Plasma 6.4

For example, when the KDE Community recently released KDE Plasma 6.4, I decided to give it a try on my openSUSE Tumbleweed machine, a Dell XPS 8300 with a 3.4GHz Intel Core i7-2600 processor, 16GB DDR3 RAM, and a 1.5TB 7200 rpm hard drive from 2011.

2B people don't have safe drinking water: what does this mean for them?

Two billion people don’t have safe drinking water: what does this really mean for them? For billions, it can mean hours spent collecting water. For almost a million, it means dying from disease. In the time it would take me to write the next sentence, I could get up, walk to the kitchen, and pour myself a glass of clean water.

Hinge CEO Justin McLeod says dating AI chatbots is ‘playing with fire’

Today, I’m talking with Hinge founder and CEO Justin McLeod. Hinge is one of the biggest dating apps in the United States — it’s rivaled only by Tinder, and both are owned by the massive conglomerate Match Group, which has consolidated a huge chunk of the online dating ecosystem. A fair warning here: I’ve never actually used a dating app — the algorithm that matched my wife and I was the university housing lottery, which put us in adjacent dorm rooms in the fall of 2000.

OnePlus 15 leak shows why the Galaxy S26 series urgently needs silicon-carbon batteries
