Here's my massive pet peeve around PCs that I don't even believe that the Dell XPS 13 has resolved:
All those computers charge over USB-C with the full force of the port. This is fine. But the second the battery is completely drained, the port cannot revive that computer. You must use the laptop's crappy barrel plug.
Only Apple allows you to use only USB-C as a charger.
- akovaski 2y agohuh? The current XPS 13 and many other laptops do not have a barrel plug. My Dell laptop without a barrel plug didn't become bricked when it ran out of battery.
- no_carrier 2y agoNot only that, but the XPS13 hasn't had a barrel plug for years now... I have no idea where OP got that info from.
- philistine 2y agoWell I looked at spec sheets, and its clearly not from the XPS line. I guess I'm thinking of the cheaper PC laptops, not this top of the line thing.
- craftkiller 2y agoMy framework laptop does not have a non-type-c way to charge. I've fully depleted the battery and charged it back up using the usb type-c port.
