Leaked Dell XPS 17 9700 listing confirms up to Core i9-10885H processor, 64 GB of RAM, 4 TB SSD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPU, vapor chamber cooling and more; Dell Latitude, Precision and XPS 15 refreshes leaked too

I can't believe how companies like dell take so much time to realize that customer satisfaction doesn't end in specs.

1)Really nice UHD screen, but if you still sell it with anti glare coating BS it will still look like a data entry computer just to see spreadsheets. It really kills contrast

2)trackpads suck. 3 hand gestures leave us a little bit closer to the organic and fluid experience of mac OS, but still missing the point of fluid moving around

You clearly don't know the difference between anti-glare and anti-reflective displays. The 4K display has glossy glass covering it, while the FHD one has plastic display covering it. The FHD is just matte, while 4K is glossy glass with anti-reflective coating on top, but still notably glossy and shiny.

Still waiting for the 8-core 10nm laptop... waiting continues.

I'd just go for a Ryzen if they had Thunderbolt 3s.

Did anyone notice that there is no AC adapter port? will it be powered just by a usb-c which is limited to 100w?
If this is the case the lap top would be very power limited, 2060 already needs about 80-90w, CPU no less than 45w, so regardless of the other components, there would be either heavily reduced clocks, or they will need some very new way to overrun this limit.

Current XPS 15 thunderbolt 3 port can drain 130w, they tweaked the standard. Same will happen with these new models.

130w Still not enough though 🙄

Dumb decisions by the manufacturers (like that awful keyboard layout) plus Intel's crappy, outdated tech are truly a woeful combination. The laptop landscape is a wasteland.

[Bobo]

They need to bring these laptops with AMD CPUs. I'm done with Intel's outdated and compromised tech. Even Apple is done with them.

🤤 Drooling over this 17" model!

I though would also like to see pen input on a 17" device for art production, along with a slot to hold the pen.
