> 3 dayAnd now, no recourse. Its a lot of money to pay for a laptop that only lasted such a short time. Very disappointing

20-11-2024The 32 GB RAM allows me to do the jobs I need and work on multiple projects at once. Ive been very happy with this computer and its functions. Its also very stylish for those which this matters. My only negative I would mention is that battery life is only fair. I was hoping it would be better. Overall you cant go wrong with this purchase.

> 3 dayIt worked OK to start, but then.... The audio started malfunctioning (I use lots of VOIP for work, so its a big issue), so much so that now it can be completely garbled at times. The wifi stops sometimes, for no reason; just now, I am on the internet with my old HP with no problems -- this computer has already lost and regained connection at least five times. In the middle of - nothing - it will start revving up and overheating. The keyboard / touchpad sometimes do not work too well -- I have not been able to figure out why sometimes I cannot type things into Excel or PPT. I hope I can get some money back returning it. There is really no point holding on to it. I cant count on it working when I need it!

> 3 dayI bought this as a work laptop; I use it mainly for Sketchup, AutoCad and Vray Architectural design. I needed a portable, yet powerful laptop that could do everything as i travel too much for a desktop. I have also used it for light gaming, just to compare to my previous laptops & computers. Ill start with- yes, its powerful (but no, i dont know the technical ins and outs so ill keep this simple). It deals well with the softwares high-processing needs and can cope with large, detailed models. It renders VERY quickly (Almost 10x faster than my previous laptop, a Lenovo Yoga2) and is generally a very reasonable computer for what i require. It starts up really quickly- the finger print sign-in being a nice touch. Im pretty glad of this though, as i do tend to restart this laptop more frequently than id expected to; when its in high-use it will often stop responding and only return to life once re-started. I also like the touch-screen addition, although i dont use it as much as i thought id be tempted to, nor is it accurate enough to use for presentations, so perhaps just an expensive luxury i thought id like. Maybe when modeling software integrates touch-screen into the workflow it will become more useful. On build quality: I love the feel of the keyboard and the touch pad and the whole material finish screams sleek and professional. The screen is HUGE for the size of the laptop, however coming from the Lenovo Yoga2 with a 4k screen, the resolution is pretty average and the colours come out feeling dull. The graphics card does make up for this though, allowing me to finally enjoy the beauty that is Cities: Skylines (wow, thats a stunning game). Unfortunately, and i wonder if this is just a fault with my machine, the speakers are pretty crackly, leaving the sound quality poor. Plug in headphones are the only way forward. Fortunately, Im not going to be watching movies on it any time soon. Battery life with heavy use is also kinda average, id say maybe 4 to 5 hours. This isnt much of an issue for me, however, as if im sitting at a computer a powder socket isnt far away. Overall, its a great laptop. I dont think its worth the price tag though, and im glad ive got a second one for general day-to-day. This is a workstation with some unnecessary perks that give an illusion its a versatile machine. Maybe i have been spoiled over the years with some great laptop choices, but if youre looking at this review its pretty likely you have been too.

Really want to love this computer
> 3 dayI’m not leaving a full review, because I can’t unlock the XPS’s capabilities. I can not download the programs I need due to the WiFi chip. From previous reviews, I knew this was an issue before I bought it and I kinda thought Dell would correct the issue for PR reasons. So, as others have done, i’ve ordered the Intel chip to replace the Killer chip. I really was hoping I wouldn’t have this problem because it’s supposed to be an awesome computer. I also don’t want to wait on Dell for the easy fix.

Greater than one weekThe computer itself and its internals works. V Good 4k monitor. However it is totally unusable without a separate mouse and keyboard and if I have access to those I will use my gaming PC with its twin 27 4K Dell monitors. The keyboard and trackpad are simply unusable. Nontravel on the keys and thentrackpadsimplyn doesnt work. It took meb10 minutesntontgryahdntypenthisnsentence. If this is what you want your emails to look like buy this computer.

> 3 dayProbably the best laptop Ive ever owned. Came exactly as described, with Windows 10 Pro. This machine is solid, super fast, amazing screen, and its a work horse. My one complaint is the camera, its in a horrible location. People are either looking up your nose, or watching your fingers type. For me, I dont use the camera, so it is a non-issue. I would highly recommend this machine for editing video and designing graphics.

Greater than one weekSimple the best laptop I have owned - working in the tech industry I wanted a powerful laptop with GPU but light weight. The performance is amazing and I am getting 6 hours from the battery.
