Post by: Redaktion on April 06, 2020, 09:27:23
An official image of the upcoming Dell XPS 15 9500 and the XPS 17 9700 along with 2020 Precision mobile workstations was briefly posted on Dell's website before it was taken down. The image confirms the anticipated redesigns of the XPS lineup including a 16:10 display, an all-Thunderbolt 3 port selection, larger trackpad, and ultra-slim bezels on all sides.

If by design changes you mean Ryzen label on the deck....

Well, one can dream... High time Dell explored other options.

Was thinking about buying XPS 15 lately, and if these rumors are true and new XPS 15 will look like this, you got my money DELL

The XPS seems like a meh, they are wasting ports on a power port instead of an extra usb-c, keyboard seems squished instead of giving us more keys, trackpad seems terrible as usual.

The Precision also seems to be wasting a port on power instead of an extra usb-c. If that is a 15 inch model that keyboard looks decent, trackpad looks good, if its thermals are okay and it runs Ryzon then maybe it is worth considering.

Another year, another keyboard layout change.

It's sad that for the amount of engineering the goes into a device like this, they insist on cheaping out and cramming the power/fingerprint reader in the keyboard assembly, where delete usually sits....

QuoteGiven that the upcoming XPS lineup will use at least a GeForce GTX 1660 Ti

Where does that information come from? That would be great but I doubt they'll be able to put such a powerful gpu in such a slim laptop.

Thanks for spotting it. :) You're right. It should be a 1650 Ti and not a 1660 Ti. Article has been corrected.

Isn't the 4k resolution in 16:10 aspect ratio actually 3840x2400 (WQUXGA)? 4x FHD in 16:9 aspect ratio is 3840 × 2160.

There's no such thing as a GTX 1650 Ti...
Maybe a 1650 Super, considering the Super line is coming to laptops in the RTX cards, but no 1650 Ti...

There is a GTX 1650 Ti. It was announced alongside the new Super Mobile GPUs last week.

I also checked again and looked at the leaked Roadmap. It appears the new XPS 17 will have a GTX 1660Ti and the 2020 XPS 15 will keep a variant of the GTX 1650. That also makes sense given the presumably better cooling in a larger notebook. I'm really stoked for the re-design and looking forward to a review of the FHD+ version!

If so, that is great and the XPS 17 can indeed afford the bigger GPU. However, the only proof of the XPS 17's existence is from the Userbenchmark listing and that unfortunately, seems to have been set to use the iGPU. We should know more in the days to come, though. :)

Never buying another Dell.

Forcing us to use Modern Standby, and voiding our warranties if we don't fully shutdown before putting the laptop in a bag has forced me to go to a different manufacturer for my next laptop.

This 9570 has been an absolute nightmare - and Dell's shitty response to the modern standby issue has me seething.

Please Dell, let there be an option for 2560x1600 resolution on 15 inch version.
