The spec sheet says 1200p (not 1080p) and the same 97 battery for all models.

Yess, and adding like a dedicated pg-down and pg-up keys and  proper cursors would like kill them. They reuse that trash keyboard from xps15 (that I now type on) also in 17" model leaving all that unused space.

It says in the article the termal solution has been improved? Anyone has more insight about it?

Still no AMD Ryzen 5900HS (35W) and no 80-100W RTX 3080, 16GB option...

Compared to the Lenovo ThinkPad P1/X1 Extreme, Dell XPS keyboards have always been a bit disappointment, but then again Lenovo silently removes important features in their laptops via BIOS update for German, European and even Indian models.
