I bought (and returned) an XPS 13 9360 last year. Touchpad was trash - overly sensitive, skipped, unrecognized movements, etc. I understand part of that is software, but it's embarrassing how much better the touchpads are on Macbooks.

It seems all the trackpads got worse when they went button-less to copy Apple.

Maybe it was broken? Were you testing under Windows or Linux? I do have buttons on my touchpad though (and a trackpoint).

Windows. I don't think it was broken, it was a similar quality to the HP Spectre I bought (and also returned).

Maybe the Latitudes have a better touchpad? I don't mind the Lenovo T-series touchpads and they look similar.

I would be surprised as Latitudes are business line a bit lower than XPS, but who knows.

I also own MBP13 - and I prefer the keyboard on my Dell over it.
