I got a new XPS 13 9360 at work 3 months ago. I was afraid how bad the coil whine will be, since that was the most common complaint I found on the web about this laptop.
I can't hear any coil whine. Maybe my hearing isn't what it used to be or our office isn't that quiet, but the only thing I hear from this laptop is the fan when it's running at full speed (and that comes up very rarely in my experience so far).
Damn it Dell, fix this shit.
It existed on my HSW XPS 13 developer edition, and this "non-developer edition" KBL XPS 13 I just purchased.
I can totally sympathize with problems like this that surface, but I have no sympathy for a company that seems to ignore this issue for several generations. My next development laptop will probably not be an XPS, and will probably not be a Dell.
