Upgrade WiFi card for XPS 13 9360
Good afternoon! This laptop has a Killer Wireless-n/a/ac 1535 wifi adapter. I would like to change it to Killer 1675 AX210NGW WiFi 6e. Will it work normally? Is the new adapter compatible with this laptop?

Some upgrade cards will work - - but not that one, which requires CNVio (your system's CPU is too old to have support for that).

@ejn63 The AX210 (what I want) - oldest (Q4 2020) Non CNVio adapter : https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/204836/intel-wifi-6e-ax210-gig/specifications.html But AX211 (Q3 2021) have CNVio2 system interface: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/204837/intel-wifi-6e-ax211-gig/specifications.html
I believe that I should work with such a laptop. This is the most modern solution (out of date already), which should be compatible. But I would like confirmation of specialists.

As long as the card doesn't require CNVio support, it should work fine. Remove the driver for the existing card before you shut down to install the new one. Then install the drivers for the new card when you first boot up.
