I have an xps 13 9300, and I see the same. The issue is that the X11 
(and Wayland?) think that the screen is 50cm wide (ask xpdyinfo about 
it), so that the dpi is supposed to be 96 instead of the actual 168.

This does not happen with all monitors though. This is what makes zoom 
issues difficult to handle.
