The Dell XPS 15 looks brilliant, has plenty of power and has a bold, bright display, but it’s hindered by some notable flaws too
Dell XPS machines are usually some of the most luxurious laptops around, and the latest Dell XPS 15 doesn’t stray from a familiar blueprint.RAM: 16GB, 32GB, or 64GBScreen size: 15.6in 1920 x 1200 IPS, 3840 x 2400 IPS, or 3456 x 2160 OLEDThat’s not necessarily a problem. The XPS 15 has received subtle improvements since its last iteration, and the laptop impresses with powerful internals and enhanced display options.
Dell XPS 15: Design & featuresThe Dell XPS 15 is one of the best-looking laptops you can buy today. Its body remains made from CNC-milled aluminum, and the keyboard deck still uses carbon fiber – and it still all looks brilliant. Dell’s machine has a 720p webcam with Windows Hello support, and the power button includes a fingerprint reader. Connectivity comes from dual-band 802.11ax wireless and Bluetooth 5.1.
If you spend more on the Core i9-11900H, don’t expect a huge performance boost. Both chips have eight cores and the Core i9 part is only 300MHz faster. The processor upgrade will deliver some extra ability in creative tasks, but it’s only worth consideration if you want to run demanding apps, like 4K video tools or high-end design software.
Dell XPS 15: Screen and SpeakersThe XPS 15 is available with three screens – the two IPS models and the sole OLED alternative. All three use a 16:10 aspect ratio, which gives you more vertical space than conventional 16:9 panels. That said, if you work in tasks that need picture-perfect color accuracy then you should look at other machines or consider Dell’s OLED screen despite its slightly lower resolution.
These are not bad results for this kind of machine – but they don’t push the envelope either. If you want a significant improvement to battery life, then you’ll have to opt for notebooks with weaker performance. US laptops aren’t currently available with the 3,840 x 2,400 IPS display, although that part is likely to come back into stock and re-appear on spec lists.
You can pay £250 more for Dell’s brand-new OLED touchscreen, which has a 3,456 x 2,160 resolution. And if you want an upgraded IPS display with a resolution of 3,840 x 2,400, you’ll have to pay at least £2,299 – in the UK, it’s only available in laptops with 32GB of memory and 1TB SSDs. No matter which XPS you buy in the UK, you’ll get Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Ti graphics.
