Q: What's the expected battery life in hours?
A: 6 hrs easy. 8 hrs if turn screen brightness down and enable battery saving and you're doing light browsing and some videos. I played 9 hrs of Netflix video series continously ( 14 videos, 45 minutes each, back to back auto play ) and still had 1.5hrs left. If screen is full brightness then battery life will be less. If you're playing intense game may get 3.5 to 4.5 hrs. I love it as I code, browse web, watch few videos... and it last at least 6hrs. I charge my laptop where ever I go so it's only when I did initial testing that I observed times above. If I go mall I find outlet and charge while using. If I go resturant I find outlet. So I've not been in a situation where I used it until it drained. When I was testing playing Netflix videos, I started videos, went to bed and it was finishing 14th and last video when I woke up. I muted sound which may have helped prolong times, but good thing is it proved system could stream videos continuously without any issues or incidents over wifi and I had 1.5hrs left bases on computer stats. I ran videos with brightness set to 40% or 50% which is bright enough in room...
Q: What is the model number of the 1TB SSD drive?
A: NVMe PM951 SAMSUNG
Q: Is the Solid State Drive PCIe or eSATA?
A: The SSD is a PM951 with est 1000mb/sec read and 700mb/sec write. It's roughly two to three times faster than traditional SATA SSD's. There is in fact an M.2 pci-e port in this laptop that can support the new SM951 SSD which is blazing by offering performance of over 2000mb/sec read and 1550mb/sec write! Swap the current SSD out for this and get nearly 5 times the performance of traditional SSD's. Incredible laptop.
Q: 1TB SSD
A: Yes, it really is a SSD drive. I was also skeptical because of the price. Dell does now offer the 1 TB drive option, but at an additional cost of $600.
Q: What are the available display resolutions?
A: 3840x2160 2560x2048 2560x1920 2560x1600 2048x1536 2048x1152 1920x1440 1920x1200 1920x1080 1856x1392 1792x1344 1680x1050 1600x1200 1600x900 1440x900 1400x1050 1366x768 1360x768 1280x1024 1280x800 1280x768 1280x720 1280x600 1152x864 1024x768 800x600
A: I got mine with Windows 10 Home, but I think you can order with Windows 10 Pro
Q: Can the memory be upgraded to 64GM of Ram?
A: The maximum memory is 32GB see this link for the specs. http://downloads.dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_laptop/esuprt_xps_laptop/xps-15-9550-laptop_reference%20guide_en-us.pdf
