While we didn't test this 15-inch version, in our Dell XPS 17 review, we loved its powerful overall and gaming performance as well as its sleek, attractive design. We were also wowed by its excellent speakers and comfortable keyboard. We gave the Dell XPS 17 a high rating of 4 out of 5-stars and our Editor's Choice award.
During real-world tests, it juggled everything we threw at it without slowing down. Our review unit had Intel Core i7 CPU and 32GB of RAM hardware and we expect seamless multitasking performance to be on par with the laptop in this deal.
Dell's design engineers gave the XPS 15 its lightweight, yet durable build forged from anodized aluminum and carbon fiber. Moreover, the XPS 15 has one of the best webcams you'll find on a premium laptop which makes it great for Zoom meetings.
