There are speakers on the sides of the laptop. Didn't really care about it but it's there. The battery meter exists on the left side of laptop as well. 2 Thunderbolt 4 ports on the left and 1 USB 3.2 Gen2 Type C PD+DisplayPort on the right. The power/biometric button location has changed. However, there seems to be some notable improvements or differences with this build model compared to the 9300/9310: I specifically wanted FHD because I know that the 4K panels affected battery life and for an ultra-portable, battery life is more important for me and FHD is perfectly fine. I'm not 100% sure on the nits, I read it was 400nits on a website (not Dell) but if it is 400-nits, it's plenty bright for me as I mostly would use it indoors. Rather than the typical (1920 x 1200) InfinityEdge 500-Nit Display, this model was FHD (1920x1080) 400-nit touch-screen display. The major difference compared to the 9310 that I was aware when I ordered this build was with the display panel. 11th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-1165G7 Processor - Intel® Iris Xe Graphics - 16GB 4267MHz LPDDR4x Memory Onboard - 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe Solid State Drive I only found one reference that it was a model that initially released for the China market.
So what is the 9305? It was hard to find any reviews of that specific model and equally difficult to find any comparison chart to see any notable differences compared to the XPS 13 9300/9310 models. Then I started seeing the 9310s which was a refresh of the 9300 released late 2020. I know that the 9300 was the 2020 release of XPS 13. The Dell model numbers still confuses me. I've always wanted one simply based on its history as far as being the equivalent of the MacBook Air in terms of its size (13.3") and build quality. Seen a ton of reviews on it and similar ultra-portables in its class.
I've had my curious eye on the Dell (2020) for a while now.
