Amazing video! Thanks. Pls I need your advice I have the option to pick between the XPS15 9500 (new) and the Razer Blade 15 2018 (144hz GTX 1060 MAXq) Refurbished. I will be doing 3d modelling and rendering and some occasional gaming. Pls which would you recommend
Thank you for such a DETAILED review. Please Help me decide, FHD vs UHD model Honestly if my top criteria are.. 1) watching HQ movies media esp 4k movies 2) SOME content creation, RUclips VLOGs, short indie films 3)reading and Studying, some office work 3) occasional ps3 game emulation 4) less eyestrain while reading Would you take the FHD or UHD version?
Well yes. we have slowly gotten used to pay above 1000 for a laptop that is reliable quality. Anything below was either bottlenecked' or lacked quality in many areas... Hopefully competition will help get things interesting
I picked up the 15" frost white (refurbished) a month ago. It did come with the wobbly trackpad, for which I did the tape fix. And except for the hinge issue--where when transported the lid refuses to close unless you press the hinges--I love this thing! It comes out to 3K (CAD) brand new, with my specs (10 gen i7, 16G ram, 512G ssd, GTX 1650 ti, UHD+). I got mine for 1K less. Had I got it new from Dell, I would've sent it right back; no one should be expected to spend this amount of cash for a device that has qc issues. However, I bit the bullet for cash value and form factor: the quality build and screen are simply outstanding! I'll live with the hinge issue. No biggie when considering the dividends. Anyway, thanks for the review. I always value your dispassionate reviews. Keep up the great work!
This is what happens when intel has been left unchallenged in the laptop cpu market until litrally 2 months ago. We would still be on 4/4 i5 if ryzen was a failure on desktop.
@@En_Joshi-Godrez No, we'd be at 6 cores for the mainstream desktop. The plan was to move to 6 cores with the 8000 series the entire time. The jump to 8 cores though right away was thanks to AMD though.
@@nap8187 Yes, you're probably right. I think thredripper was the bigger jack knife for intels trajectory. They were forced to sell what could of been a $8000 xeon platinum chip in the i9-7980XE (which is the 10980xe) for less than $1k. Sure, its not a scalable, but that is a massive blow to intels image as the 'premium' alternative. I have no doubt that the 8 and 10 core consumer parts are also enterprise chips.
5:56, but that is the infamous trackpad issue.... 12:35, finally someone mentioned the fan behavior. Depending on how you look at it, it can be a good thing or a bad thing. Dell went the Apple way when they approached the fan-behavior, the reason that the fans don't start spinning immediately (like in a classic fan-curve) is that even if the temps are very high, Dell intended to not start the fans because they will be very annoying for those who often do short high-cpu(or gpu) utilizations, that's why. Even if the power draw reaches 70W and temps go to 99C, the fans won't annoy you, they'll remain silent. To me this is one of the selling-points of the XPS 15 9500. On short 100% cpu loads i'd rather let the cpu reach high tdp, very high temps and high clockspeeds for a short period of time while the fans stay off/don't spin a lot and don't fluctuate rather than to hear the fans start spinning immediately after the cpu reaches a certain temp. 16:00, again, Dell doesn't have to change anything regarding the fans, maybe to add the option to switch to the classic fan curve but not remove this feature. Imagine you're in a quite environment with other people (library, class, at work with coworkers), nobody would want to hear the fans fluctuate all the time while you're doing high cpu/gpu intensive work.
That fan curve really took me off-guard when I got my first macbook and did a light render on it. I just wish we had a choice of either this or a more agressive curve like you said since fast and often changes in temps are not good for electronics.
@@givinnatanlie4619 go to r/Dell in reddit and you'll see that there are still people who are getting the trackpad issue in both the xps 15 and 17, even though they ordered those laptops in july, that's post mid-june which is when Dell released a statement that all post mid-june (or sometimes around that) orders will not have the trackpad issue, which is clearly not true.
Ryzen 4000 mobile chips are only limited to x8 PCI express lanes, that's why they are not sold with high end GPUs, they just can't handle all the bandwidth of GPU, PCIe SSDs, thunderbolts, etc
@@abhinavgangwar6303 I didn't know that! On the desktop they have more lanes than intel! But 8 lanes is enough for any current gen GPU. Pretty sure Hardware Unboxed tested 8 lanes with desktop GPUs and only had a less performance when using a card with limited 4GBs of Vram at low bus speeds which ment it had to acess system RAM all the time. While the 1650ti is 4Gb I'm sure the next gen GPUs will have more.
Exactly. Loose trackpad? Really? Also, charging issue on the XPS17? Wow. Imagine paying $2k+ and have these problems. Not to mention, the headache of dealing with Dell directly for the return.
I bought the XPS 15 9500 a few months ago - upgraded the NVMe M.2 from the 1TB KIOXIA to the WD Black 1TB and the RAM from 16 to 64, came with the I7 and the 1650Ti 4K touch screen and could not be happier - I have had no issues and chances are you wont either, so dont let this guys negative comments dissuade you. I love mine !
If you can w8 because they seem to have issues with the first badges, probably because they had change so many parts. Also if you don't need it this year I bet AMD version next year will come and you will be hitting yourself, not only for the raw power but the probably better battery.
For nearly the same price you can get an hp envy 15. Specs- Core i7 10750H Rtx 2060 max q Vapor chamber cooling system For 1500 usd. And considering the problems people have had with the new XPS, I feel like the envy is a much better deal. It's sad to see that great laptops that offer great value and a premium build don't get a review from the bigger techtubers, and hence not many people know about them.
Does it have shit battery life tho? And I’ve had bad experiences with HP. So ima switch from HP to Dell. I wanna get a sleek looking device that can handle anything and open up programs quickly. My HP Pavillion x360 i3 8GB of ram did none of that
I wish that model can come to Amazon so I can buy it (international purchase). Would anyone here has an idea if that could happen in the near future? Great comment!
@@joshuz101 They should have made a XPS 15 Dev version as well. Seems many people had issues with installing Linux in the XPS 15. Alternatively you can go with a thinkpad or HP. There is also System76 laptops.
Wish it had amd...... Hey Eber,Dmitry or anyone from hardware Canucks, could you please review the asus rog m15.....it is an unpopular laptop but I think it is a very good competitor for its price... Priced at about $1600 for an RTX 2070
Gonna wait it out to see if amd gets dropped into dells soon. Gonna just build a pc in the mean time or upgrade my displays. Not much of a gamer but love a good display and good audio
My 15 will be here in a day or two. I got it for video editing as well as work. I've been on a laptop that is now 7 years old with a 5 year old ssd and it's starting to slow down. I opted for the more color accurate 4k Screen and the 8 core i7 10875h. I'm really excited
Devin Dykstra also Dell works veeeery closely with Intel. They get a lot of MDF from Intel to develop products. If you want a similar laptop with AMD, check out what HP has in their x360 stuff. Really solid.
it took few more months for manufacturers to design new motherboard tho. like the guy above no one expecting that, and it is also risky to use a new product because it may lose profit. but seeing how amd performs then there will soon be a lot more amd products.
A good use case for this laptop is for people who want a desktop replacement and some good power on the go. Someone who does some real work but enjoys some light to medium gaming on the side, or benefit from the gpu in a professional capacity. Not everyone needs the utmost performance out of their hardware so by trading off a little bit of it for a better experience using it is something people can value.
After a traffic tea accident, my Surface Book is no more and I suddenly found myself in need of a new laptop at least a year earlier than I expected. After much searching over the past 2 months, I finally settled on the XPS 15 over the MSI Prestige 15 and Razer Blade 15 when Costco offered the i7-10875, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB, 4K OLED, and 1650 Ti for 1999 USD. I really couldn't be happier with this machine in the week I've had it. I am only a light gamer, but I do some photo and video processing and this has had excellent performance. Yes, I wish I had another year or two so that manufacturers had time to figure out the kinks of writing with Ryzen 4000 series processors, but there's just no time for that. I'm happier than I expected to be with this machine.
actually I like that the middle section isn't really flush - hard to say if that's a bug or feature, but this way you won't get greasy screen just because it was touching the keyboard.
Great review. As an owner of older model 9560 I have been through all of this. I though I would have a gaming beast, looking slim and being light. Soon I realised there are compromises to be done. You can push it to gaming but that required some modifications like repasting it, turning turboboost off, putting thermal pads on vrms, lifting it for good cooling, undervolting(rip 10th gen users or if u updated bios) and disabling horrible dptf for managing the heat and cooling. Laptop then throtteled less and gaming was a bit more stable but getting it off the charger meant battery life under 1.5hrs. At the end I decided to revert everything, keep only my undervolt and turn off turboboost for playing on lower details just to keep it cool. Main use is now editing and school and that’s that it is meant for. It is not a gaming laptop, but still, a great laptop. Just don’t expect miracles. Physics works even when it comes to Dell.
Got a XPS 17, incredible machine. Only down side is my first one had track pad issues. Two weeks later I received a second unit, which has its graphics card fail every day and it's taking another two weeks to receive a replacement. Also battery drain issues are still a problem. It seems that the upcoming batch of units should fix most issues, but it's definitely frustrating paying $2800+ on a laptop to not have a functioning unit for over a month :/ Also I love y'alls videos 😭😍
Yeah, that's what we were saying. Ours was from a later batch but that doesn't eliminate all the hesitation we have in recommending the XPS series. Its really embarrassing that Dell's flagship notebooks are experiencing so many problems.
@@HardwareCanucks just finished watching, and definitely appreciate the comments on quality control. Even with the weariness I'm definitely gonna be keeping the third unit I receive (if it works) because it really is the entire package in terms of incredible design and performance!
I’m a keyboard player and one of the major issues with Dells for years has been DPC latency. This occurs when you plug in an audio interface to record into DAWs like Cubase,Ableton and Logic software. Have you never used any recording software to record? Would you have a friend that might have a laptop DAW? If so, I can guarantee there will be a shed load of musicians waiting to see the results regarding recording a few VSTs and vocal tracks using the XPS! I suppose any type of recording would do to see if it’s still has this major problem. It would just be a case of an audio interface, a free DAW and something played in and copied 20-30 times on different tracks then playing them back until it breaks down. It’s the VST side of things That I’m v interested in seeing the results....A ten second clip is of no use it needs to run for at least 7(8 mins to really see if it’s going to break up!
THIS! im waiting and i have SCOURED the internet to no avail. No musicians have picked this thing up yet and reviewed it online. Dave Lee and a couple other youtubers have said Dell has fixed the latency issues in these new XPS machines. But my biggest question is, will it run my Apollo Twin X? Im gonna pull the trigger and take the leap.
Please,please leave your views / experience here! I’d advise you to look up Molten Music Monthly or at least his review of the Surface 6 for music production. He details how you make Microsoft Windows more efficient re DPC and other major problems by going into the reg edit and dealing with “Turbo Mode” and ‘Connected Standby”. These are MAJOR factors in causing the “clicks” and “pops” and audio peaks when using VSTs /DAWS and audio. Most computers can do the odd track or two....but soon fall apart when you have 20/40 audio tracks some VSTs and effcts. The Dell should be able to easily deal with these if set up correctly.....but nobody has done it! If you do buy one, please put in what amount of ram you have and any other relevant details.......There”ll be many people wanting to buy you a pint or two.
Tony ODoherty will definitely try! I’m pretty scared tbh since I just purchased a brand new razerblade and nothing I tried would get rid of the crackles and pops on my Apollo. But it works perfectly on my pc tower
I've had mine for 2 months and I've gotten it repaired 3 times already. First touchpad wobble then battery issues then the keyboard slide off the metal bottom. It's really annoying but thankfully the customer service is great
I really respect this kind of information. Hardcore nerdiness!!! I've never seen a review of half of these things! Very cool. Makes me want to learn more.
Been using the 9530 and 9560 (2019 models, both i9) for work and while both are incredible machines the 9530 was a real lemon for me with many issues that could not be solved even with help of the fantastic customer support. But with my current 9560 I could not be happier! While the matte 1080p screen of the 9530 was good but I *love* the 4k OLED screen on the 9560! Materials and build quality are pure luxury and with the understated styling this laptop is a thing of beauty! It also has a lot of power which is greatly appreciated for video editing. The other incredible thing is the price here: in my case it was about 4000€ - Lucky for me my company paid for it. But this is also one of the few cases where I feel that the product actually reflects the high price.
Selling my old laptop to purchase this! Been needing an upgrade for some time and I think this might be the perfect Windows OS based laptop! I’m a full time college student and being able to get any and all school work done, along with running some warzone game with the boys... makes this an awesome laptop! Thanks for the review!
Okay, around 16:00 minutes in... So the reason Dell won't change the fan curve to the load of the system rather than temperatures is because as it's not meant to be a gaming laptop, people will use it for creative purposes, which mean short bursts of high tdp. Now as they would usually be short bursts, people complained the fans kicked up too often and caused some nuisance where as now it will kick up to high gear for a short while at the expense of high temps while keeping quiet for longer. if that makes sense...
After watching like more than 50 videos I decided to go for the DELL XPS 15 (Core i7 / 16gb RAM / 500gb SSD) and honestly it is a beast. I am a developer and it works perfect, the screen is dope there is literally almost no bezels. My only complains are: 1) Yeah it can heat a little bit but to a level that you can still have it on your lap. 2) The default audio settings for the Waves MaxxAudio is terrible is sound like you are listening music in a hole with headsets on. 3) The touch pad is kind of wonky, selecting texts and just using it in general is not a great experience; definitely doesn't overpass the Macbook Pro touch pad. (That wasn't a big problem for me since I mainly use a mechanical keyboard and mouse to type and general use).
Wen Jie Chang I would definitely recommend it for Software Development, maybe for music production not since the audio is not the best. Other than perfoms like a beast and for the price you get a lot more than Apple in performance. And the almost no bezels makes it look great.
Wen Jie Chang Also additional update, I don’t why the realtek audio drivers weren’t updated with dell auto update but anyway. After updating the new Realtek driver it sounds much great now :)
I had a dell xps 19". it was not really a laptop, it had a 3.5 hdd, 2 sound cards and the game card could play almost any game on either ultra or medium. My cousin had to have an expensive build pc to be better than my laptop. ahhh i loved it so much.
Good review mate...but I noticed one thing how you criticised small 'up' and 'down' navigation keys on Zenbook 15 by Asus calling them only good for baby fingers... however, you have no complaints from the similar sized keys on this XPS...just saying!
@@danielgagnon8201 hey dude, sorry I missed this. I cancelled in the end. Just couldn’t do it man. So many QC issues especially at that price point. I just said stuff it and bought a MacBook Pro in the end. Best thing ever and highly recommend it for professional use! Sorry couldn’t help you further. I just had to go with Apple given I have always liked their quality control over any other brand.
i'm writing this comment on the new XPS 15 base model. I like it so far. I got it a few weeks ago, so I dodge a lot of the hardware issues that people were reporting (i.e. track pad issues, brightness problems, etc.). How do I like it? The display is gorgeous and it gets 10 hrs battery life while browsing the internet, doing mild tasks, and listening to Spotify. It has been an amazing laptop for casual stuff. Will I keep it or return it before the 30 return policy runs out? Still trying to decide. While it has been amazing so far, I do wish it had a little more power in it. I do a lot simulation based statistical work and the CPU is a little slow for my taste. That said, I love the battery life and the display. Idk if there would be another laptop which would have more power while retaining this computer's great battery life. I knew going into this, that I would be trading power for battery life. But I guess I'm still sorting that out for myself. Feel free to ask me any questions you might have. Lockdown has got me missing human contact lol.
Paid over $2300 for mine, had it for 14 days, sluggish start ups, fans go off randomly (even idle), left palm rest gets hot, booting can take 3-10 minutes... Updated everything, drivers, windows updates, bios... Now after the bios, it bricked at the Dell logo and black screen. Won't do another thing... Dell supposed to replace tomorrow, but we'll see... My experience is that of a used $300 older laptop so far... Not a premium creator tool.
Xps 15 has given me so many problems. My first one had screen glitching, screen freezing, volume not working, brightness not changing, and loose trackpad. After getting a replacement it still had problems with screen freezing, screen glitching, volume not working correctly, and freezing on startup causing it to only turn on the fan. Its hard to get help at night sometimes even though dell premium support plus is supposed to 24/7. If you buy this laptop return it asap if you experience any issues
I watched this video thinking from the very beginning that he really liked this laptop but he really wanted to find something to criticize about it. He pointed out that the quality control issues were associated with the first batch of computers but continued to harp on them. He finished the video by saying that he wouldn't blame you for skipping this computer but then expressed his disappointment with having to send the review unit back. His conclusion is that he may spend his money to get one of his own. I think he likes it. What do you think?
The XPS 15 and XPS 17 though the same are vastly different systems based on hardware. After being one of those with a defective XPS15 and sending it back I am reluctant to get another but I might consider the XPS 17 which seems to do more and be better in many ways when compared to the XPS 15.
i get the same kind of audio clipping that you got on the webcam from my Asus deep blue zenbook, except it is out of the main speakers... a restart of windows has been the fix but it seems to be related to chrome.
The model I want is on sale for $1500. I just bought a Lenovo Yoga C940 yesterday for $1100. I wish I waited!! This looks fricken amazing and the 15" looks great
I think the microphone issue is from the sensitivity. I turned mine down to 95% on control panel and turned it down even more on apps like discord and zoom to get rid of the little static noise issue.
It's pretty great. I'd still go for an AMD-based ThinkPad though. CPU clock frequencies are much more stable and temperatures are lower. 50 degrees at the surface is pretty high for a traditional (non-gaming specific) laptop.
@@SrihariMohan it's commonplace for gaming laptops though. Which is sad itself. Physics doesn't just bow into submission just because you want to shove two heating elements in a body with little thermal mass and meager heat exchangers. Bigger machines like the ThinkPad P series run pretty cool with gaming/workstation level performance, because they have um... larger coolers and thermal mass and therefore are >2.6kg. 😂😭
I bought one a few weeks ago, and in the first 3 days the trackpad broke and the notebook crashed 5 times on me. So I turned it back. And I think I can only be convinced to buy another one if it comes with a more effecient processor, be it from AMD or the next Intel generations.
Just an FYI: I purchased the FHD (returned it) and now the UHD version of the XPS 15 9500 in both August and September respectively, and BOTH have had the loose/wobbly trackpad issue. Dell claims they fixed this with June models, but this is completely false.
Your reviews are amazing, they're helping me to decide which laptop to buy. Thanks for your work. By the way, I would like to know about your recording gear, what camera / mic do you use? you have an amazing quality in your videos!
Hey man! I love your videos, I was wondering if you could help me out I’ve been trying to do my best research for a replacement laptop and i’m leaning towards the Dell XPS 15. I’m in architecture and need to run 3D modelling software, CAD software, Adobe Suite and other things. Would you recommend this laptop? Would you suggest other laptops around this budget? Thanks!
What I really hate, HATE about my XPS is where they put the cooling vents. They shoot the hot air towards the bottom of the screen. That is good and great and all, UNTIL you decide to use the laptop with an external monitor and the laptop screen closed. It over heats SUPER quick because the hinge blocks the majority of the vent and the heated air has no where to go. If they had side vents, I'd say this is the best laptop you can buy. So, if you want to use this primarily with an external monitor with this closed, I'd say watch out. Dont do any gaming or heavy CPU work.
I bought one three weeks ago, had trackpad issues. Dell sent a replacement and although fewer trackpad issues were still present sent it back for a refund. Don't get why Dell can't straighten this out.
Thanks for the review (am a Tentree fan also). Not in the market to buy right now but possibly later in year, will see how the reliability holds up then. HP has a light/thin 15" Z workstation laptop that's probably similar performance coming out shortly, curious to see how it compares (likely pricier...). Am I right in thinking that to get touch on the XPS15 you have to get the 4K display? Have read that the 1080 is really good on it and hard to tell apart from the 4K, but I do want touch.
My XPS 15 experience was one of the worst I have ever had. I got the laptop with the wobbly trackpad, and the headphone jack was broken. Also, the screen didn't sit flush with the body of the laptop, which should never happen on this laptop for how much it costs. So I sent it off to Dell on July 4th. I was supposed to get it back on July 9th but they never updated me on the status of my laptop until July 17th. Come July 17th, they call me telling me that the parts will not be in stock until AUGUST 7TH!!!! THAT'S OVER A MONTH WITHOUT THE LAPTOP!!! AND I have been seeing reports of people receiving their machines back from repair with the SAME ISSUES so needless to say I'm nervous and angry.
Looked into the XPS on recommendations and ended up going for the G5 I7-10750H and RTX 2070MQ instead. The way I see it is that I can use an external monitor if the display is such an issue. That and if content creation dries up like it has for most of the year I have something that can be used for gaming.
Going into Engineering this year, would anyone tell me if this would be a good choice? I don't want anything that looks too gamer-y if that makes sense and this looks like exactly what I need
i need a laptop that will work 09:00 am to 11 pm. no gaming, no video editing, no render, no autocad. i will use trading stock programs that need high CPU, high RAM and stable perfromance. XPS 9500 is good for this ? or i have to buy Precision series for example 3551 or 7550 ? thank you
I think we have to get used to the idea of less ports. As much as people don't like being given 'less' it is a matter of where the market has moved. And that is maximizing performance and minimizing size/weight. Most people will not be connected to several devices at the same time, and when they are, most likely they are sitting at a table. I am on the side of making devices as efficient as possible.
The WiFi / Network performance is impacted by the Killer Software Suite. This has been a known issue for Dell systems using the Killer Network cards and the installed Killer Suite for some time. The XPS 9500 and 9700 are no different. When comparing WiFi / Network performance against other systems the Dells are usually 300 to 400% slower! If you uninstall the Killer software and use the Killer remover software found on the Killer Site @t and then download and install only the Drivers your WiFi / Network performance will improve considerably!

Thank you for such a DETAILED review.
Please Help me decide, FHD vs UHD model
Honestly if my top criteria are..
1) watching HQ movies media esp 4k movies
2) SOME content creation, RUclips VLOGs, short indie films
3)reading and Studying, some office work
3) occasional ps3 game emulation
4) less eyestrain while reading
Would you take the FHD or UHD version?
You might want to update the description, but gotta love ???? who not only provided the notebook for free but also sponsored the video.
I hope next time it would come with 2k-3k mini led display.
" Jack of all trades , master of none BUT better than a master of one " - lots of people forgot the rest
you have the best close up shots of the XPS 15, looks so good. I feel no regret ordering xps 15 after this video.
Ah yes my daily dose of watching reviews of random tech stuff I can't afford.
These are a little on the pricey side. :(
M S Oh snap!
@@APrzap too bad it's 70 now
@@MZ95 I'm an engineering student so buying this laptop is an investment

Waiting for “wish it had AMD” comments
wish it had AMD
Well yes. we have slowly gotten used to pay above 1000 for a laptop that is reliable quality. Anything below was either bottlenecked' or lacked quality in many areas... Hopefully competition will help get things interesting
I don't need to wish. I got a Zephyrus G14 and will never look back
Lil Lobo same here:) might not be as tightly built, but sill very satisfied with the quality. And perfect size for me
lonzo for mvp Nah, I'm good with my g14, thanks.
Watching the review again and I am so glad you mentioned liking the 1080P display. I have opted for that and feel better about it.
I picked up the 15" frost white (refurbished) a month ago. It did come with the wobbly trackpad, for which I did the tape fix. And except for the hinge issue--where when transported the lid refuses to close unless you press the hinges--I love this thing! It comes out to 3K (CAD) brand new, with my specs (10 gen i7, 16G ram, 512G ssd, GTX 1650 ti, UHD+). I got mine for 1K less. Had I got it new from Dell, I would've sent it right back; no one should be expected to spend this amount of cash for a device that has qc issues. However, I bit the bullet for cash value and form factor: the quality build and screen are simply outstanding! I'll live with the hinge issue. No biggie when considering the dividends. Anyway, thanks for the review. I always value your dispassionate reviews. Keep up the great work!
4 core 8 threads "you know what procie" 8 gb ram for $1249. The hell is this? 2014
This is what happens when intel has been left unchallenged in the laptop cpu market until litrally 2 months ago. We would still be on 4/4 i5 if ryzen was a failure on desktop.
@@En_Joshi-Godrez No, we'd be at 6 cores for the mainstream desktop. The plan was to move to 6 cores with the 8000 series the entire time. The jump to 8 cores though right away was thanks to AMD though.
@@nap8187 Yes, you're probably right. I think thredripper was the bigger jack knife for intels trajectory. They were forced to sell what could of been a $8000 xeon platinum chip in the i9-7980XE (which is the 10980xe) for less than $1k. Sure, its not a scalable, but that is a massive blow to intels image as the 'premium' alternative. I have no doubt that the 8 and 10 core consumer parts are also enterprise chips.
5:56, but that is the infamous trackpad issue....
12:35, finally someone mentioned the fan behavior. Depending on how you look at it, it can be a good thing or a bad thing. Dell went the Apple way when they approached the fan-behavior, the reason that the fans don't start spinning immediately (like in a classic fan-curve) is that even if the temps are very high, Dell intended to not start the fans because they will be very annoying for those who often do short high-cpu(or gpu) utilizations, that's why. Even if the power draw reaches 70W and temps go to 99C, the fans won't annoy you, they'll remain silent. To me this is one of the selling-points of the XPS 15 9500. On short 100% cpu loads i'd rather let the cpu reach high tdp, very high temps and high clockspeeds for a short period of time while the fans stay off/don't spin a lot and don't fluctuate rather than to hear the fans start spinning immediately after the cpu reaches a certain temp.
16:00, again, Dell doesn't have to change anything regarding the fans, maybe to add the option to switch to the classic fan curve but not remove this feature. Imagine you're in a quite environment with other people (library, class, at work with coworkers), nobody would want to hear the fans fluctuate all the time while you're doing high cpu/gpu intensive work.
That fan curve really took me off-guard when I got my first macbook and did a light render on it. I just wish we had a choice of either this or a more agressive curve like you said since fast and often changes in temps are not good for electronics.
they probably try to appeal to their 'fan' base
All newer production xps don’t have trackpad issues anymore
@@givinnatanlie4619 go to r/Dell in reddit and you'll see that there are still people who are getting the trackpad issue in both the xps 15 and 17, even though they ordered those laptops in july, that's post mid-june which is when Dell released a statement that all post mid-june (or sometimes around that) orders will not have the trackpad issue, which is clearly not true.
That thumbnail is well deserving of it's own award holy🔥
4900HS would have been the perfect fit for this laptop. Maybe next year haha
What about Thunderbolt?
@@matheusgomes7176 by next yeat USB 4 will be out with the same speeds.
Ryzen 4000 mobile chips are only limited to x8 PCI express lanes, that's why they are not sold with high end GPUs, they just can't handle all the bandwidth of GPU, PCIe SSDs, thunderbolts, etc
@@abhinavgangwar6303 but this dell only has a 1650ti right...
@@abhinavgangwar6303 I didn't know that! On the desktop they have more lanes than intel!
But 8 lanes is enough for any current gen GPU. Pretty sure Hardware Unboxed tested 8 lanes with desktop GPUs and only had a less performance when using a card with limited 4GBs of Vram at low bus speeds which ment it had to acess system RAM all the time. While the 1650ti is 4Gb I'm sure the next gen GPUs will have more.
This new chassis has so much potential, Dell just needs to step up and eradicate all the quality control issues and drop a Ryzen in there.
Exactly. Loose trackpad? Really? Also, charging issue on the XPS17? Wow. Imagine paying $2k+ and have these problems. Not to mention, the headache of dealing with Dell directly for the return.
@@tr7287 ya I remember the days when del and Toshiba were the best you could get and you didn't have to spend a fortune to get one that was good

I watched almost all XPS 15 reviews and you guys did the best job ever! 😊
"It's all about perspective". Thank you, spot on! Another great review, as always.
I bought the XPS 15 9500 a few months ago - upgraded the NVMe M.2 from the 1TB KIOXIA to the WD Black 1TB and the RAM from 16 to 64, came with the I7 and the 1650Ti 4K touch screen and could not be happier - I have had no issues and chances are you wont either, so dont let this guys negative comments dissuade you. I love mine !
Ahhhh that screen!!
Im convinced to buy just for the screen!
Im serious
If you can w8 because they seem to have issues with the first badges, probably because they had change so many parts.
Also if you don't need it this year I bet AMD version next year will come and you will be hitting yourself, not only for the raw power but the probably better battery.
@@hellNo116 yeah totally agree 👍
That's the reason I would like to buy one of these.

john smith Do you know approximately when that will come out next year?
Using the 2019 model, no issues so far. Perfection in every way.
@Dylan _ I agreed!
Dylan _ I would better specs for cheaper the cheapest Mac Pro vs the cheapest dell XP’s the xps cheaper and better
How about editing?
For nearly the same price you can get an hp envy 15.
Specs-
Core i7 10750H
Rtx 2060 max q
Vapor chamber cooling system
For 1500 usd.
And considering the problems people have had with the new XPS, I feel like the envy is a much better deal.
It's sad to see that great laptops that offer great value and a premium build don't get a review from the bigger techtubers, and hence not many people know about them.
Does it have shit battery life tho? And I’ve had bad experiences with HP. So ima switch from HP to Dell. I wanna get a sleek looking device that can handle anything and open up programs quickly. My HP Pavillion x360 i3 8GB of ram did none of that
I wish that model can come to Amazon so I can buy it (international purchase). Would anyone here has an idea if that could happen in the near future? Great comment!

I'm waiting for 17" Xps review I'm considering it my current laptop it's a mid 2012 MacBookpro it's time to upgrade
Gonna wait it out to see if amd gets dropped into dells soon. Gonna just build a pc in the mean time or upgrade my displays. Not much of a gamer but love a good display and good audio
My XPS 17 9700 arrived last week. No issues at all and am now running Ubuntu. Fantastic machine!
My 15 will be here in a day or two. I got it for video editing as well as work. I've been on a laptop that is now 7 years old with a 5 year old ssd and it's starting to slow down. I opted for the more color accurate 4k Screen and the 8 core i7 10875h. I'm really excited
How much ram did u get?
@@hasnanoel9536 i went with 8gb but upgraded it myself to 32gb and saved myself some money in the process :)
I'll pick one up when they use AMD cpus
They probably designed it before Zen 2 APUs were available. Let's be honest, nobody expected Zen 2 mobile CPUs to be so incredible.
Devin Dykstra also Dell works veeeery closely with Intel. They get a lot of MDF from Intel to develop products. If you want a similar laptop with AMD, check out what HP has in their x360 stuff. Really solid.
Same.
it took few more months for manufacturers to design new motherboard tho. like the guy above no one expecting that, and it is also risky to use a new product because it may lose profit. but seeing how amd performs then there will soon be a lot more amd products.
@@thenatous_ also, thunderbolt isn't easy to use with AMD processors.

A good use case for this laptop is for people who want a desktop replacement and some good power on the go. Someone who does some real work but enjoys some light to medium gaming on the side, or benefit from the gpu in a professional capacity. Not everyone needs the utmost performance out of their hardware so by trading off a little bit of it for a better experience using it is something people can value.
Just bought this one with the i9 and 32gb ram. 1tb storage. Can’t wait to use it!
I bought it back in june and damn I can confirm that there were issues but also that its the greatest laptop
After a traffic tea accident, my Surface Book is no more and I suddenly found myself in need of a new laptop at least a year earlier than I expected. After much searching over the past 2 months, I finally settled on the XPS 15 over the MSI Prestige 15 and Razer Blade 15 when Costco offered the i7-10875, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB, 4K OLED, and 1650 Ti for 1999 USD. I really couldn't be happier with this machine in the week I've had it.
I am only a light gamer, but I do some photo and video processing and this has had excellent performance.
Yes, I wish I had another year or two so that manufacturers had time to figure out the kinks of writing with Ryzen 4000 series processors, but there's just no time for that. I'm happier than I expected to be with this machine.
actually I like that the middle section isn't really flush - hard to say if that's a bug or feature, but this way you won't get greasy screen just because it was touching the keyboard.
The brightness/color shift can be turned off in the BIOS.
I don't understand why Dell has it on out of the box. Makes no sense if you ask me...
Great review. As an owner of older model 9560 I have been through all of this. I though I would have a gaming beast, looking slim and being light. Soon I realised there are compromises to be done. You can push it to gaming but that required some modifications like repasting it, turning turboboost off, putting thermal pads on vrms, lifting it for good cooling, undervolting(rip 10th gen users or if u updated bios) and disabling horrible dptf for managing the heat and cooling. Laptop then throtteled less and gaming was a bit more stable but getting it off the charger meant battery life under 1.5hrs.
At the end I decided to revert everything, keep only my undervolt and turn off turboboost for playing on lower details just to keep it cool. Main use is now editing and school and that’s that it is meant for. It is not a gaming laptop, but still, a great laptop. Just don’t expect miracles. Physics works even when it comes to Dell.
Got a XPS 17, incredible machine. Only down side is my first one had track pad issues. Two weeks later I received a second unit, which has its graphics card fail every day and it's taking another two weeks to receive a replacement. Also battery drain issues are still a problem.
It seems that the upcoming batch of units should fix most issues, but it's definitely frustrating paying $2800+ on a laptop to not have a functioning unit for over a month :/
Also I love y'alls videos 😭😍
Yeah, that's what we were saying. Ours was from a later batch but that doesn't eliminate all the hesitation we have in recommending the XPS series. Its really embarrassing that Dell's flagship notebooks are experiencing so many problems.
@@HardwareCanucks just finished watching, and definitely appreciate the comments on quality control. Even with the weariness I'm definitely gonna be keeping the third unit I receive (if it works) because it really is the entire package in terms of incredible design and performance!
That is a gorgeous laptop man. I would get the 1550$ model. One of the best designs I've ever seen of a laptop.
can you tell me its name exactly
I’m a keyboard player and one of the major issues with Dells for years has been DPC latency. This occurs when you plug in an audio interface to record into DAWs like Cubase,Ableton and Logic software. Have you never used any recording software to record? Would you have a friend that might have a laptop DAW? If so, I can guarantee there will be a shed load of musicians waiting to see the results regarding recording a few VSTs and vocal tracks using the XPS! I suppose any type of recording would do to see if it’s still has this major problem. It would just be a case of an audio interface, a free DAW and something played in and copied 20-30 times on different tracks then playing them back until it breaks down. It’s the VST side of things That I’m v interested in seeing the results....A ten second clip is of no use it needs to run for at least 7(8 mins to really see if it’s going to break up!
THIS! im waiting and i have SCOURED the internet to no avail. No musicians have picked this thing up yet and reviewed it online. Dave Lee and a couple other youtubers have said Dell has fixed the latency issues in these new XPS machines. But my biggest question is, will it run my Apollo Twin X? Im gonna pull the trigger and take the leap.
Please,please leave your views / experience here! I’d advise you to look up Molten Music Monthly or at least his review of the Surface 6 for music production. He details how you make Microsoft Windows more efficient re DPC and other major problems by going into the reg edit and dealing with “Turbo Mode” and ‘Connected Standby”. These are MAJOR factors in causing the “clicks” and “pops” and audio peaks when using VSTs /DAWS and audio. Most computers can do the odd track or two....but soon fall apart when you have 20/40 audio tracks some VSTs and effcts.
The Dell should be able to easily deal with these if set up correctly.....but nobody has done it! If you do buy one, please put in what amount of ram you have and any other relevant details.......There”ll be many people wanting to buy you a pint or two.
Tony ODoherty will definitely try! I’m pretty scared tbh since I just purchased a brand new razerblade and nothing I tried would get rid of the crackles and pops on my Apollo. But it works perfectly on my pc tower
I've had mine for 2 months and I've gotten it repaired 3 times already. First touchpad wobble then battery issues then the keyboard slide off the metal bottom. It's really annoying but thankfully the customer service is great
Great review!
Thanks
I am awaiting the delivery of my XPS 15.
Purchased specifically to work with Lightroom.
Let’s see if it performs as advertised!
Which monitor did you choose?
I appreciate and love your reviews, thank you,
Ravi
3:32 nice wallpaper on that dell. Anyone knows what's the name of it? Or what is the link of it?
I really respect this kind of information. Hardcore nerdiness!!! I've never seen a review of half of these things! Very cool. Makes me want to learn more.
Been using the 9530 and 9560 (2019 models, both i9) for work and while both are incredible machines the 9530 was a real lemon for me with many issues that could not be solved even with help of the fantastic customer support.
But with my current 9560 I could not be happier! While the matte 1080p screen of the 9530 was good but I *love* the 4k OLED screen on the 9560! Materials and build quality are pure luxury and with the understated styling this laptop is a thing of beauty! It also has a lot of power which is greatly appreciated for video editing.
The other incredible thing is the price here: in my case it was about 4000€ - Lucky for me my company paid for it. But this is also one of the few cases where I feel that the product actually reflects the high price.
Selling my old laptop to purchase this! Been needing an upgrade for some time and I think this might be the perfect Windows OS based laptop! I’m a full time college student and being able to get any and all school work done, along with running some warzone game with the boys... makes this an awesome laptop! Thanks for the review!
M Haha, definitely! I think shaders might be pushing it, but it can definitely run Minecraft with a nice texture pack!
Okay, around 16:00 minutes in... So the reason Dell won't change the fan curve to the load of the system rather than temperatures is because as it's not meant to be a gaming laptop, people will use it for creative purposes, which mean short bursts of high tdp. Now as they would usually be short bursts, people complained the fans kicked up too often and caused some nuisance where as now it will kick up to high gear for a short while at the expense of high temps while keeping quiet for longer.
if that makes sense...
After watching like more than 50 videos I decided to go for the DELL XPS 15 (Core i7 / 16gb RAM / 500gb SSD) and honestly it is a beast. I am a developer and it works perfect, the screen is dope there is literally almost no bezels. My only complains are: 1) Yeah it can heat a little bit but to a level that you can still have it on your lap. 2) The default audio settings for the Waves MaxxAudio is terrible is sound like you are listening music in a hole with headsets on. 3) The touch pad is kind of wonky, selecting texts and just using it in general is not a great experience; definitely doesn't overpass the Macbook Pro touch pad. (That wasn't a big problem for me since I mainly use a mechanical keyboard and mouse to type and general use).
Wen Jie Chang I would definitely recommend it for Software Development, maybe for music production not since the audio is not the best. Other than perfoms like a beast and for the price you get a lot more than Apple in performance. And the almost no bezels makes it look great.
Wen Jie Chang Also additional update, I don’t why the realtek audio drivers weren’t updated with dell auto update but anyway. After updating the new Realtek driver it sounds much great now :)
Sorry, but .. 34dB is not dead silent, its actually quite a noise. And 46dB, thats way too loud and I would like to use that at night ...
I had a dell xps 19". it was not really a laptop, it had a 3.5 hdd, 2 sound cards and the game card could play almost any game on either ultra or medium. My cousin had to have an expensive build pc to be better than my laptop. ahhh i loved it so much.
Good review mate...but I noticed one thing how you criticised small 'up' and 'down' navigation keys on Zenbook 15 by Asus calling them only good for baby fingers... however, you have no complaints from the similar sized keys on this XPS...just saying!
Your review was super good and love dell . Thanks

Hey. How is your product? Any quality control issues?
@@danielgagnon8201 hey dude, sorry I missed this. I cancelled in the end. Just couldn’t do it man. So many QC issues especially at that price point. I just said stuff it and bought a MacBook Pro in the end. Best thing ever and highly recommend it for professional use!
Sorry couldn’t help you further. I just had to go with Apple given I have always liked their quality control over any other brand.
A laptop with windows 10, superb display, amazing design with gtx 1650 and 15hr battery life! Best of both worlds!
i'm writing this comment on the new XPS 15 base model. I like it so far. I got it a few weeks ago, so I dodge a lot of the hardware issues that people were reporting (i.e. track pad issues, brightness problems, etc.). How do I like it? The display is gorgeous and it gets 10 hrs battery life while browsing the internet, doing mild tasks, and listening to Spotify. It has been an amazing laptop for casual stuff.
Will I keep it or return it before the 30 return policy runs out? Still trying to decide. While it has been amazing so far, I do wish it had a little more power in it. I do a lot simulation based statistical work and the CPU is a little slow for my taste. That said, I love the battery life and the display. Idk if there would be another laptop which would have more power while retaining this computer's great battery life. I knew going into this, that I would be trading power for battery life. But I guess I'm still sorting that out for myself.
Feel free to ask me any questions you might have. Lockdown has got me missing human contact lol.
Paid over $2300 for mine, had it for 14 days, sluggish start ups, fans go off randomly (even idle), left palm rest gets hot, booting can take 3-10 minutes... Updated everything, drivers, windows updates, bios... Now after the bios, it bricked at the Dell logo and black screen. Won't do another thing... Dell supposed to replace tomorrow, but we'll see... My experience is that of a used $300 older laptop so far... Not a premium creator tool.
Xps 15 has given me so many problems. My first one had screen glitching, screen freezing, volume not working, brightness not changing, and loose trackpad. After getting a replacement it still had problems with screen freezing, screen glitching, volume not working correctly, and freezing on startup causing it to only turn on the fan. Its hard to get help at night sometimes even though dell premium support plus is supposed to 24/7. If you buy this laptop return it asap if you experience any issues
I watched this video thinking from the very beginning that he really liked this laptop but he really wanted to find something to criticize about it. He pointed out that the quality control issues were associated with the first batch of computers but continued to harp on them. He finished the video by saying that he wouldn't blame you for skipping this computer but then expressed his disappointment with having to send the review unit back. His conclusion is that he may spend his money to get one of his own. I think he likes it. What do you think?
Superb review!
I don’t know much about laptops but I just bought this laptop for my architecture class. I hope I made the right choice.
The XPS 15 and XPS 17 though the same are vastly different systems based on hardware. After being one of those with a defective XPS15 and sending it back I am reluctant to get another but I might consider the XPS 17 which seems to do more and be better in many ways when compared to the XPS 15.
You convinced me 1080 p or 1200 p matt screen is good. No need to spend more for 4K gloss !
i get the same kind of audio clipping that you got on the webcam from my Asus deep blue zenbook, except it is out of the main speakers... a restart of windows has been the fix but it seems to be related to chrome.
The model I want is on sale for $1500. I just bought a Lenovo Yoga C940 yesterday for $1100. I wish I waited!! This looks fricken amazing and the 15" looks great
I think the microphone issue is from the sensitivity. I turned mine down to 95% on control panel and turned it down even more on apps like discord and zoom to get rid of the little static noise issue.
Razer be like "How you gonna ditch us like that maaan?"
@trixterii _ Wha
Dell needs to do a amd option. When they do ryzen and thunderbolt together, I'd buy one
It's pretty great. I'd still go for an AMD-based ThinkPad though. CPU clock frequencies are much more stable and temperatures are lower. 50 degrees at the surface is pretty high for a traditional (non-gaming specific) laptop.
Yeah typing on 50 degrees doesn't sound very comfortable
@@SrihariMohan it's commonplace for gaming laptops though. Which is sad itself. Physics doesn't just bow into submission just because you want to shove two heating elements in a body with little thermal mass and meager heat exchangers. Bigger machines like the ThinkPad P series run pretty cool with gaming/workstation level performance, because they have um... larger coolers and thermal mass and therefore are >2.6kg. 😂😭
The biggest problem is that it has intel
I bought one a few weeks ago, and in the first 3 days the trackpad broke and the notebook crashed 5 times on me. So I turned it back. And I think I can only be convinced to buy another one if it comes with a more effecient processor, be it from AMD or the next Intel generations.
Just an FYI: I purchased the FHD (returned it) and now the UHD version of the XPS 15 9500 in both August and September respectively, and BOTH have had the loose/wobbly trackpad issue. Dell claims they fixed this with June models, but this is completely false.
Your reviews are amazing, they're helping me to decide which laptop to buy. Thanks for your work.
By the way, I would like to know about your recording gear, what camera / mic do you use? you have an amazing quality in your videos!
Thanks for the video man. 🙏 Can u suggest some laptops for the best performance other than gaming laptops. ?
Hey man! I love your videos, I was wondering if you could help me out I’ve been trying to do my best research for a replacement laptop and i’m leaning towards the Dell XPS 15. I’m in architecture and need to run 3D modelling software, CAD software, Adobe Suite and other things. Would you recommend this laptop? Would you suggest other laptops around this budget? Thanks!
Yes, ordered mine a few hours ago. Ended up return my new razer blade 15. And dell has a sell on them right now. 200 dollars off.
ordered mine and super excited. how long does it usually take ship if you buy straight from dell?
What I really hate, HATE about my XPS is where they put the cooling vents. They shoot the hot air towards the bottom of the screen. That is good and great and all, UNTIL you decide to use the laptop with an external monitor and the laptop screen closed. It over heats SUPER quick because the hinge blocks the majority of the vent and the heated air has no where to go. If they had side vents, I'd say this is the best laptop you can buy. So, if you want to use this primarily with an external monitor with this closed, I'd say watch out. Dont do any gaming or heavy CPU work.
I bought one three weeks ago, had trackpad issues. Dell sent a replacement and although fewer trackpad issues were still present sent it back for a refund. Don't get why Dell can't straighten this out.
Thanks for the review (am a Tentree fan also). Not in the market to buy right now but possibly later in year, will see how the reliability holds up then. HP has a light/thin 15" Z workstation laptop that's probably similar performance coming out shortly, curious to see how it compares (likely pricier...). Am I right in thinking that to get touch on the XPS15 you have to get the 4K display? Have read that the 1080 is really good on it and hard to tell apart from the 4K, but I do want touch.
The crackling microphone/camera audio thing... sounds like a misconfigured DAC/ADC thing. They should be able to fix that post-launch.
My XPS 15 experience was one of the worst I have ever had. I got the laptop with the wobbly trackpad, and the headphone jack was broken. Also, the screen didn't sit flush with the body of the laptop, which should never happen on this laptop for how much it costs. So I sent it off to Dell on July 4th. I was supposed to get it back on July 9th but they never updated me on the status of my laptop until July 17th. Come July 17th, they call me telling me that the parts will not be in stock until AUGUST 7TH!!!! THAT'S OVER A MONTH WITHOUT THE LAPTOP!!! AND I have been seeing reports of people receiving their machines back from repair with the SAME ISSUES so needless to say I'm nervous and angry.
My XPS 17 really has issues with fan curve! Dell really needs to fix this.
Looked into the XPS on recommendations and ended up going for the G5 I7-10750H and RTX 2070MQ instead. The way I see it is that I can use an external monitor if the display is such an issue. That and if content creation dries up like it has for most of the year I have something that can be used for gaming.
It's been quite a while.. but I still don't know this skinny guy... Lookin Good Bro!
Going into Engineering this year, would anyone tell me if this would be a good choice? I don't want anything that looks too gamer-y if that makes sense and this looks like exactly what I need
Have you looked into the ROG Zephyrus G14?
It's not a lifestye change, it's a regression to remove used port.
i need a laptop that will work 09:00 am to 11 pm. no gaming, no video editing, no render, no autocad. i will use trading stock programs that need high CPU, high RAM and stable perfromance. XPS 9500 is good for this ? or i have to buy Precision series for example 3551 or 7550 ? thank you

Does the 4k screen make much of a visible/tangible difference? For watching Netflix for example
I think we have to get used to the idea of less ports. As much as people don't like being given 'less' it is a matter of where the market has moved. And that is maximizing performance and minimizing size/weight. Most people will not be connected to several devices at the same time, and when they are, most likely they are sitting at a table. I am on the side of making devices as efficient as possible.
Dude your sweater is dope
Can you just compare best workstation laptop, We are looking for best performance with more RAMs and Higher CPU, not for games
The WiFi / Network performance is impacted by the Killer Software Suite. This has been a known issue for Dell systems using the Killer Network cards and the installed Killer Suite for some time. The XPS 9500 and 9700 are no different. When comparing WiFi / Network performance against other systems the Dells are usually 300 to 400% slower! If you uninstall the Killer software and use the Killer remover software found on the Killer Site @t and then download and install only the Drivers your WiFi / Network performance will improve considerably!
Nice glasses. What glasses are those? Are they blue blocker?
Would you recommend this laptop for editing 4k videos, or which one would you recommend beside MacBook. Thank you for your opinion.
