I might be wrong but I believe on the 13" XPS (not the 2-in-1 I have) you can change the automatic brightness in the BIOS. I can't do it in mine but I think this was a recent change to the 7390 2n1 only. It's CABC if I remember correctly. FWIW, I have a 2016 MBP (maxed out) and now a 2019 XPS 13 2in1 4k and while I haven't used it anywhere near as long I think my XPS blows my MBP out of the water. I feel like I'm working on a 2005 laptop when I switch to the MBP and it's only saving grace is OSX. I also got the 4k/i7/32gb version for $985 from the Dell outlet during Black Friday. Insane price. Not sure if your touchpad has the Windows precision drivers like mine does but I haven't noticed any issues with my touchpad compared to my MBP. I like it but I also use no gestures. I refused to even look at laptops that didn't use the Precision drivers/touchpad. I'd say after a month of having it 100% of my issues/annoyances are Win10. I'm getting more used to it, Win10s tablet mode is actually pretty awesome but then 20% of your apps will be UWP (native tablet mode) while the others are regular exe/msis. It's bit of a jarring experience and I feel like I'm fighting Windows constantly. And the thing that really blows my mind, this being a convertible tablet, the on screen keyboard is absolutely horrid. It takes less time for me to write things with the pen even factoring in my horrible penmanship that I have to slow down with for it to read it correctly. Course, this is another Windows issue. Microsoft owns Swiftkey now, it'd be nice if they integrated it.
