I am thinking of buying a new laptop and I am in doubt between two models. I live in Brazil, and prices here are astonishingly high. In addition, there is no wide availability like in the U.S. so I cannot simply choose model "X" instead of the two mentioned below. It is basically the two of them.
Price is very similar for both of them. The LG Gram has a larger screen and seems to have better battery life, but the Dell XPS 13 has a sharper and brighter screen. Any recommendation from real-life usage?
