Laptop: Dell XPS 13 and very happy. Maxed out specs and clearly higher price range.

Or: Lenovo Yoga Convertible. My second device. I just don't do games. Or bigger data stuff on this machine. Some design work. Some photo and smaller video stuff. I love the flexibility of the convertible when working with PDF and doing annotations by hand.

The battery on my xps seems to be swelling and messing up the trackpad. Apparently it’s a pretty common issue

Edit: seems to be the precision line too

> The same problem is happening with the Precision 1510 line with the same batteries. I purchased 10 of these laptops for my department around the same time you did. We've had four of these failures so far in three laptops.

Good to know. Will watch for it. Currently not an issue.
