Dell Premium 16: Flawless aesthetics & performance
Neurodivergent sensory heaven. I've read quite a few reviews on various sites/platforms touting that the keyboard is difficult to adapt to, but I found quite the opposite. The end-user UI is fantastic, the design aesthetic is flawless. First Windows laptop I've been excited about in a long time. The Dell Premium 16 is on-par with my 2022 16 in MacBook Pro both under the hood and design/quality-wise. Came with minimal bloatware to remove. Looking very forward to more protective accessories (cases/screen protector) becoming available because I plan on having this for a long time.

Solid work and mid gaming laptop
The Dell Premium 16 laptop is very versatile and can be good for work or gaming. It comes with a great looking OLED UHD 3820x2400 16” touch screen at 120Hz. It comes with 32GB of RAM, and 1 TB M.2 for storage. The Intel Ultra 7-255H and Nvidia 5050 discrete GPU make it powerful enough for whatever you want to do. You can do work and mid-level graphics when gaming. It is USB-C only with 3 ports (3x Thunderbolt Display Port), a 3.5mm headphone jack, and Micro SD reader. The screen is a good size since it’s UHD overall, the laptop is not too heavy at around 5 pounds. At the top of the bezel is a 1080p camera. You have Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth for connectivity. It looks like any standard Dell laptop with a platinum-ish color, and plastic bottom. I went to open the underside, and two of the screws stripped and I couldn’t get them out. With 32GB RAM and 1 TB of storage you have enough for most computing you want to do. The Keyboard is towards the top of the base with a large area left for the mousepad. There is no marking of the mousepad, but it is from the bottom of the case to the bottom of the keys and left to right from the Windows key to the Co-Pilot key. The BIOS is standard and easy to get around and make changes as needed. Boot up times are quick, and the laptop is quiet by default. The keys are backlit and large. There is no Numpad. The F series and command keys are built into the shell and are not keys across the top, but touch. You can change what is display with the Function key. The power button in the upper right also acts as a fingerprint reader. The only bloatware was McAffee, easily removed, and the other programs included were Dell support and upgrade programs. Whether using an USB-C Ethernet adapter or Wi-Fi 7, connections were seamless and full speed. The included 130w USB-C charger charges the battery quickly. For work you can get 2.5-3 hours, and gaming can cut that in half easily. You can optimize for more time depending on your settings. The laptop is quiet in regular or eco modes. Even in performance it’s not a whirlwind. In heavy gaming the keyboard gets hot as the air comes out, but not so much you can’t keep playing. Upgrading to Windows Pro and installing programs was easy. For gaming performance, it will do okay. You won’t get all the graphic features, but enough for it to play well and look decent. Scores from 3D Mark: Steel Nomad – 1819, Speedway -1989, and Steel Nomad Light – 7848. For a smaller package, it does decent in its category. Good for on the go gaming without being too heavy or large. For work, the processor is powerful enough for video calls, Office, and with being able to add multiple screens, have them all running simultaneously. The camera is 1080p and works well. Using an adapter for USB-C to DisplayPort had no issues. Make sure you fully update using the Windows and Dell upgrade programs. Overall, this laptop fills an area of balance for work and play nicely. Enough to do either on the go. At 5 pounds it’s not the lightest, but it provides more power and options than a really thin laptop. Just take your charger with you, and you’re set for computing on the road.

Top end laptop from Dell, but can run HOT
The worst part about the Dell Premium 16” DA16250 is the fact that Dell got rid of the XPS naming convention. Otherwise, you will have a tough time finding a premium Windows laptop that rivals this “not XPS” 16" Dell Premium laptop. Con’s - The battery life isn’t stellar, think 6ish hours of normal use at medium high brightness, but the tradeoff is a gorgeous 16” over 4K 120hz OLED display (3840x2400 vs 3840x2160 for normal 4K). While the Core Ultra 7 255H is a very speedy chip. For some reason, running the “ultra performance” mode, the CPU is hitting 107c package (according to HWinfo), or 109c during a few benchmark runs of Cyberpunk 2077! Pro’s - Pretty much everything else! You unpack this thing, and the second you grab it, it strikes you with heft and such a crazy solid feel. (The keyboard is great, good travel feels premium, just not bright enough) I’ve tested and used TONS of laptops in the last 10 or so years (worked at a small University for 6 of those years in the IT department) and I have not handled a laptop that felt this solid and high end! I’ve set up and tested $4,000+ fruit devices, and other premium Windows machines, and nothing has this premium feel. When you turn it on, it shows that it's even more “premium”. This 4K 120hz OLED is gorgeous, and the HDR in games is so crazy bright that I actually have to drop the brightness a bit. Overall performance is great, considering the hardware, just be wary of CPU temps. The RTX 5050 performs well for being limited to 45w according to Dell. Overall, while having a premium price, you will not be disappointed in the experience with this 16” beauty. (Just keep an eye on your temps) Performance numbers: Cinebench R23 10 minute loop Multi Core - 19446 Geekbench 6 Multi - 17183 Single - 2831 CrystalDiskMark 9.0.1 peak read - 6572MB/s peak write - 5832MB/s Cyberpunk 2077 1200p High preset with DLSS Quality - 69.8fps 2400p High preset no scaling - 17.56fps Forza Horizon 5 2400p Extreme preset 2xMSAA - 32fps 2400p High preset no AA no scaling - 66fps 3DMark Timespy 8246 GPU - 7728 CPU - 13313
