Dell has reduced the price of its new XPS 13 for students, bringing the laptop down to $599.99 as part of its back to school promotions.
The standard price is $699.99, so eligible students can save an additional $100 after verifying their education status. The XPS 13 is positioned as a compact Windows laptop for school, college, and general productivity, with a lightweight design, a high resolution display, and long battery life.
Dell is also discounting several accessories that can be paired with the laptop, including a compact wireless keyboard and mouse set and a padded backpack.
Dell XPS 13 student deal brings the price below $600
The discounted XPS 13 configuration includes an Intel Core 5 320 processor, 8 GB of RAM, and a 512 GB SSD.
It also features a 13.4 inch display in a chassis weighing about 2.2 pounds. The screen offers a 2.5K resolution, touchscreen support, and a 120 Hz refresh rate.
Dell says the laptop can deliver up to 17 hours of battery life, which makes it suitable for long days of classes, study sessions, and general work away from a charger.
| Product | Regular price | Sale price |
|---|---|---|
| Dell XPS 13 | $699.99 | $599.99 for eligible students |
| Dell Pro 7 Keyboard and Mouse | $94.99 | $89.99 |
| Dell Pro EcoLoop Backpack | $54.99 | $49.99 |
The student price requires education verification. Buyers who are not eligible can still purchase the laptop for $699.99.
The new XPS 13 keeps its premium design
The current XPS 13 is designed as a more affordable version of Dell’s premium compact laptop line rather than a basic budget model.
Despite the lower price, the laptop keeps several features associated with more expensive XPS systems.
These include the 120 Hz touchscreen, a high resolution panel, a slim and light chassis, and a built in webcam with Windows Hello facial recognition.
The laptop also uses USB C for charging and includes USB C 3.2 Gen 2 connectivity with support for external displays.
Its standard 65 W USB C charger is another practical detail, since you are not tied to a proprietary charging connector.
The keyboard and trackpad are also described as strong parts of the design, which means you may not need external input devices for everyday use.
Dell is also discounting useful accessories
The Dell Pro 7 Rechargeable Compact Keyboard and Mouse set has been reduced from $94.99 to $89.99.
The combination is designed for portability and may be useful if you regularly connect your laptop to a monitor or prefer a desktop style setup for longer study sessions.
Dell has also reduced its Pro 14 to 16 Plus EcoLoop Backpack from $54.99 to $49.99.
Although the bag is designed for larger laptops, the extra space can be used for chargers, notebooks, peripherals, and other school materials.
The full setup can stay below $740
For students who qualify for the XPS 13 discount, combining the laptop with the discounted keyboard and mouse and the backpack keeps the total cost below $740.
That makes the package more accessible than many premium ultraportable setups while still providing the main equipment needed for classes or remote work.
The XPS 13 is particularly notable because Dell has reduced its price without turning it into a heavily compromised entry level machine.
You still get a compact chassis, modern display, solid connectivity, biometric login, and enough performance for common school workloads such as web browsing, document editing, video calls, presentations, and cloud applications.
For students looking for a lightweight Windows laptop before the new semester, the $599.99 education price is the strongest part of the current promotion.
