While you asked Sze, I can say that I don't feel that they're smaller. I *DO* kind of miss my home/pgup/pgdown/end keys, but I've started using vimium for chrome, and at least my browsing hasn't been affected. I've actually started using vimium on my desktop, as I find that using Vimium I need less movement to browse now, and browse a bit faster.
BTW, as a competitor/alternative to the XPS15 I would actually look at the P34G v5, and not the P34W v5.
Hmm. Certainly, the specs of the P34G match those of the XPS15, but the two major drawbacks that I can see (compared to both the P34W and the XPS 15) are 1) the 960m instead of the 970m in the P34W, and 2) the lack of thunderbolt 3 incorporated into the USB Type C port.
The benefit of having the TB3 on the XPS 15, of course, is that I could eventually get an external GPU. Alternatively, at least with a 970m I could play up-to-date games until I'm able to afford a new desktop build. Decisions decisions! The Gigabyte would cost me around the same thing as the XPS 15, in all likelihood, which I'll admit, is kind of leaning back in the XPS 15's favour considering its 15" screen, slimmer metal body, and the major consideration: TB3 for a future external GPU. I'm curious just how much an egpu dock through TB3 will cost, though. ARGH! So many things to consider XD
I imagine the keys on the XPS 13 seemed smaller simply because the entire thing is crammed into such a tiny frame. Optical illusion!
