I use this for work and it’s perfect for my needs (spreadsheets, photoshop, etc) I suggest 32Gb or at least 16GB of RAM and 2TB if you want a device that runs all programs smoothly, with enough storage that you don’t have to worry about it. Read more

I am very sad and unhappy with the laptop i got and i have not been able to use it up till now, the mail problem with the laptop is that it generates so much heat when it is turned on, the heat is so much that it is just not possible to use the laptop. I an so confused and not happy at all considering the cost of the laptop. I bought it via Amazon when i came to the USA in March this year. Please kindly advice me on what to do. Thank you Read more

This laptop is an absolute beast. Tons of memory and processor for a laptop, but that also means it can get pretty hot if you are pushing it. Make sure that the cooling is not obstructed by sitting on your lap directly. Had my first issue pretty much right away with the Killer Wireless in Windows 10. After a software update, the wireless card stopped working and I could not get it to connect to the access point. Called Dell, they tested the hardware and then told me they couldn't do anything else for me. My warranty didn't support software. Pretty annoying for a nearly $2,500 laptop. The Wireless card still doesn't work in Windows. Luckily, I didn't but this for running Windows and it runs Linux a treat and everything works out of the box, including the touch screen (Ubuntu). One strange issue I had is with 802.11ac WiFi 6. I have found that some Linux distros will not support the 160mhz on the on the router with the Killer Wireless Card, and will disconnect continuously. I cannot confirm if this is an issue with any of the other cards. I disabled that feature on my router and have not had any additional issues and get 900 - 1000 Mb/sec speeds consistently. Read more

I've been using this laptop for 3 months now for work, it's been a great system to develop on. I have two external monitors hooked up over a USB-C hub and I haven't had any issues so far. It's fast, has good battery life, and is small form factor enough that it's easy to travel with. I'm running Fedora as well, and so far haven't run into any major problems with hardware compatibility either. Read more

I recently purchased a new Dell XPS 13 laptop to replace my 2016 machine. The keyboard's responsiveness, incredible infinity display, excellent processing speed and 2TB SSD drive capacity just kills it. But what truly made purchase memorable was the vendor. The communication to address shipping questions was excellent. I received prompt answers to my questions about the product and delivery tracking and highly recommend the Dell XPS 13 and the vendor, ExtremeOverstock. Well done! Read more

The title and description say UHD+ 4K (3840 x 2400) 500-nit touchscreen display. And then of course I received the OLED 3.5K (3456 x 2160). So, unless you like your screen burned-in, don't buy this laptop. Read more

Yes, this is a wonderful laptop and the display is stunning. But what Dell and OLED TV sellers won't tell you about is the unspoken pitfalls of OLED technology. Yes, they do provide the clearest, most stunning display of any screen technology. What they don't warn you about is after approximately 10k hours of use the OLED technology will result in irreversible burn-in, especially if any image, particularly red or green, is left static on the screen repeatedly. Since most laptop users keep their laptops on, or default to their desktops for extended periods, or are working spreadsheets for hours on end, or are using them for extended periods of time with the same parts of the screen remaining static for extended periods of time, a burn it will invariably result. It won't MIGHT happen...it WILL happen. This burn in is not correctable...the entire display needs to be replaced. For instance, if you use Facebook a lot and there are red dots on any of the icons on top of the page, and you don't click on them, it will result in a burn-in after an extended exposure. I have dealt with this twice on my LG 55" OLED 4k SMART television. I enjoyed the best looking TV screen for approximately 10k hours of use and then POW...overnight I started seeing burn in from the "Breaking News" banners from CNN and from other programs which I watched all the time that had static images, such as their station logo in one of the corners; or if I had one of the TV's HDMI inputs set to my computer and I left the desktop on all the time with no screen saver activated. Luckily for me, my 5-year warranty protected me, but the same thing happened all over again. Since I also used my LG OLED 4k Smart TV as my computer monitor, I installed a screen saver on my computer that activates after 30 seconds so there is never the possibility of a burn in in case I accidently leave an image on the TV when it is displaying anything static from my computer. Any time I pause a TV program I am watching, I immediately switch the HDMI input to my computer and the screen saver kicks on in under 30 seconds as long as I don't move the mouse....hence no static image, which means no burn in. This is why OLED screens are not recommended for computer use, but are terrific for TV use PROVIDED YOU HAVE A COMPUTER WITH AN ACTIVATED 30-SECOND SCREEN SAVER ATTACHED THROUGH ONE OF THE TV'S HDMI INPUTS. My computer is still attached to my OLED TV. but when I use it now, I never go to a website that keeps a static image; I always have my 30-second screen saver activated; and I never leave the desktop static on my computer. Until the manufacturers solve the burn-in issues of OLED technology, it is safer to use QLED technology when it becomes available for laptops and computer monitors. OLED...great for TV's....not safe for computers yet. Read more
