The new design may be thinner and sexier than the outgoing design, but running temperatures can become noticeably warmer as a result.

QuoteFor example, surface temperature hot spots on the 2026 model when running Cyberpunk 2077 would reach 43 C on both the keyboard deck and bottom cover compared to just 37 C on the 2025 Dell 16 Premium with more powerful graphics. Core temperature would reach 89 C on the newer model compared to just 75 C on the outgoing model.
crazy - why?
