Dell XPS 15 2017 9560 (7300HQ, Full-HD) Notebook Review

[Jolla]

I've just buy this XPS!

Can you suggest me a docking station or something else for connect pc with dual display (hdmi and vga)?.

Or just an adamptor for video proiector (hdmi or vga)?

Thank you!

[LOL XD]

LOL Looks like Dell really doesn't want anybody playing games on this thing. Oh well, seeing as Alienwares are overpriced pieces of junk, it's either Gigabyte or Aorus this year, as always.

Are you not gonna review the higher spec models?

Check the German version of the site - it's already reviewed, needs to be translated.

Here's the first actual implementation details of the XPS 15 along with benchmarks.

After testing Rise of the Tomb Raider fully maxed out...
"For my use case (4k external) this puts me 5-7 FPS behind what reviewers are getting online..., which is acceptable losses for me." - jackeyjoe

Use of the internal display is also tested with the x2 bi-directional PCIe lanes.

When will you review the i7, 16 GB memory, 512 GB SSD, Full HD, 97 Whr battery model?

For years, we've had problems getting the Dell XPS line to work with our corporate enterprise WiFi.  We don't use anything exotic, but we do use 802.1x authentication, and WPA2 Enterprise (with a DYNAMIC key, not a pre-shared key (PSK)).  We have multiple buildings and the WiFi is configured to let employees roam between buildings and not have to know SSIDs and PSKs for the WiFi.  I've complained to Dell, but it's fallen on deaf ears.  I don't know why they use a different WiFi architecture (WiFi chip, etc.) on the XPS line.  Dell Latitudes work just fine in our infrastructure and so do other vendor's laptops.  Very frustrating!!!  Therefore, the IT department PROHIBITS the use of Dell XPS laptops with our network.

My wife and I were about to buy 2 of the XPS 15 16Gb of ram 1tb ssd yesterday... so, after reading some issues with the battery folks were having with this and the 9550 I thought before I bought a $2400 notebook I want to know what the replacement cost of the 97 watt battery was... and I have to say, I was floored.... According to both models web pages on Dell under accessories they state the battery is no longer Available... then I went to amazon... Product Discontinued... What the heck do you do with a $2500 Laptop when the battery is dead and not available anywhere... It becomes a $2500 anchor for you next boat... I Cancelled orders for 2 of the machines immediately.... That is CRAZY that Dell has discontinued selling the replacement batteries.. I'm sure glad I found out before we took delivery.. By the way, the Battery is Not Warrantied by Dell Either so your screwed.
