Overall GREAT Laptop!!
WOW, this laptop has the goods, 16g Ram, Infinity Edge UHD monitor, 1tb ssd drive, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060, Sculpted CNC Enclosure. This well optioned laptop is perfect for the home office. It will take about everything you throw at it. Granted this is not a gamer laptop, this one is great for large file CADs, Big Raw picture files or High Quality Video etc. The XPS Ships with the latest Win 10 (20H2) after starting it up for the first time and running updates I uninstalled a few Items (I consider bloat ware) then installed Light room and Go Pro Quick. (Tip: Upon first boot, for those who do not wish to log in to a WINDOWS account. Skip adding it to a Wi-Fi network or plug in to one. It will give you the option to skip it, otherwise you are locked in to creating or logging in to windows.) My previous laptop wouldn’t even play high quality capture from my Go Pro, the thing bogged down making it very difficult to clip or cut videos where I wanted. My first test was to take my GoPro time lapse file pictures from the Grand Canyon and make a video of sun up and sun down. I was able to complete this and edit it in under 15 minutes with no clipping or bogging down. I got the results I was looking for. The UHD Touch Screen Monitor really rocks. Very crisp through the entire screen. Next up took a ton of my raw picture files (24mb plus) and imported them, ran my usual tweaks to all my photos in a batch file in light room. And they were finished in record time. The 16gb of ram and the I7 8 core processor did the trick. When the unit was processing it got hot pretty quick and the fans cooled it down fairly quick. It was hot enough I had to remove it from my lap until it cooled down. The CNC enclosure is extremely tough and helps protect the 17 inch touch screen, but man is this thing heavy. It weighs in at about 6 lbs. more than the usual laptops of this size but when packed with this many goodies, the weight is not an issue. The speakers are very nice and clear, if anything maybe a slight adjustment is needed to the mid tones but not bad at all. The keyboard has bigger keys, great for us slow typers ha-ha, the Touch pad is extra sized which I found very useful while do the picture edits. I ran a couple of Benchmarks that came back great for the laptop (see pics) In Novabench the score was a very respectable 3245, which ranked it in the 97 percentile and 84% better than the average laptop (score of 1759) when compared to a much more powerful laptop as you can see if fared very well. The CPU score was only -7% compared to a I9-10885, but the best thing was the overall score. it was 7% better than a I9 or a Ryzen 9 4900hs with GTX1650 or Radeon pro 5500M I would not hesitate to recommend this to family and friends, this one will last for some time to come!!

Overcompensating for nothing
This laptop makes its presence known out of the box. From a distance it may look unsuspecting but upon closer inspection you’ll find this is a beautifully designed chassis. It’s no lightweight but the symmetry of the in/outputs that couldn’t be more convenient make up for anything it lacks in the weight department. The hinge is very sturdy. Sturdy enough to make it difficult to open the lid. But in all honesty, this is a desktop replacement. For the amount of power under the lid I feel it’s an understandable tradeoff. The screen is super responsive to touch controls. I could not get this to stutter when attempting to stress test it. Everything was fluid with my input in Office programs, various browsers, CAD files, etc. So long as I knew exactly what output I was supposed to get with my touch, it was a completely fluid experience. I feel that responsiveness made it much easier to adapt to a new program on the fly. The palm rest is a very soft and almost velvety feeling cover. It provides enough grip and comfort and doesn’t come close to digging in on your hands over extended periods of time. I also didn’t feel a substantial amount of heat being dispersed on my hands either which was a pleasant surprise as well. The trackpad is generously sized. And if you are not used to something like that, it might actually be a bit in the way. What you can’t take from it is the precision it offers. I habitually use a trackball no matter what computer I’m on and I found myself using the trackpad more than I would have expected. The keyboard is very clean. It’s not something that really stands out but it does give that feeling it’s there for the long haul. It’s comfortable and the key response allows for a comfortable typing experience. The illumination is excellent and subtle. On startup you will need to get a few updates. This model required a few firmware updates so you are going to want to keep this plugged in and charged to full before you do anything along those lines. Registration options are offered for Dell’s included warranty on this first startup as well. Performance values shown are straight out of the box. Drivers and software were all updated but nothing was removed from anything that would be running out of the box. There is definitely work that can be done that can improve these values. And I would very much suggest doing so. Even without any fine tuning, I was easily able to work through files and projects my desktop can even struggle with at times. 2K video from my Sena and 4K video from my iPhone files were easy to work with and render using this laptop. Photo editing has been incredibly smooth. You can’t argue with such a quality product like this. Particularly in this market where you can’t find a GPU like this unless you stand in line overnight. This is the whole package if you need a serious upgrade and want to take it on the go. And you won’t go wrong with this decision.

Wow! Just.....WOW!
Buckle up! There is a LOT that I have to say about this laptop. Packaging: Dell put a log of thought into the unboxing experience...as they should. In the era of YouTube it's important to feel good about your purchase when opening the box! The laptop was shipped inside a box within a box and the inside box had a nice matte black finish with magnetic lid that flipped open. Impressive! All the accessories were tucked away underneath the laptop so that all you saw was the clean aluminum presented to you. Setup: Standard Windows set-up here. Pretty boring if you ask me. It's a little underwhelming for your first viewing experience on what is undoubtedly a gorgeous screen to be a big blue box with a list of countries and an annoying Cortana voice announcing to your wife that another gadget has entered our home. This is not Dell's fault. Do better Microsoft. Hardware impressions: This thing is a BEAST! It's not exactly portable in the sense that you'd want to lug it around all over campus, but certainly movable. The top/bottom aluminum is sleek and very classy. No notes there! Inside I would have rather seen a continuation of the same aluminum finish rather than the carbon fiber finish. Screen: Oh my god. The screen. Yes. Please. Finally a Windows screen that I can love. If you're debating between the UHD+ or a FHD+ display it's so worth it. Colors are great and it's so sharp. I can never go back. Thunderbolt: :) Yes. Thunderbolt. The Windows unicorn. I have a LG 5K monitor that I use with another fruity laptop. It's Thunderbolt only and and I've been dying to get a Windows laptop that I can use with it. I'm happy to report that it works with flying colors! I have an ethernet cable, and micorphone plugged into the monitor and when plugging the one thunderbolt into the Dell everything sprung to life and worked perfectly! Beautiful! Trackpad: I'm not going to dock any stars for the laptop overall, but here is an area where I'm not exactly impressed. The trackpad is HUGE and it feels smooth enough. I did have trouble knowing where to click. I thought I was clicking in the lower left corner and it would trigger a right click. There is also an audible creak when you lightly rest your thumb in the lower middle of the trackpad. I find that I prefer using a mouse to this trackpad so far. Performance: I dabble in video editing and this was the main purpose for wanting this laptop. I use Adobe Premier and was interested in a larger screen with high resolution for editing and a more capable processor and GPU for rendering. I was absolutely blown away by how responsive the software was to my edits and how smooth the rendering was before export. The additional screen real estate and color accuracy was a godsend as I was editing and correcting some old VHS captured footage. Processing power was also best in-class. I was able to export a 15 minute video in under 90 seconds with some basic titles and transitions. Battery: As expected for something as large as this, with a screen this impressive, battery life isn't that great. I was able to us Adobe for around 3 hours before it was pestering me to plug in. Again - this probably isn't for someone who needs ultra portability and the ability to go all day without plugging in. If you're setting up shop at a cubicle or at a Starbucks with access to an outlet - then this wouldn't be a concern. Overall, I am REALLY impressed with the XPS line. It's premium in every sense of the word and will really improve my productivity!
