So, i have a XPS 15 9520 with Win 11 Home on it, and i absolutely loathe it, ive used SetAllBack and the looks are...OK at the moment, but there is just so much bloat and shit i cant stand, so i am considering a downgrade to Win 10!! Thing is, ive heard multiple stories searching Reddit that spans from "Wifi drives wont work" to "Battery life will suck" to "Everything is just fine and dandy".

Razer or Macbook or something else?

Get a Dell XPS 15, the new one. Its beautiful, and its Windows. If not, wait a couple months and get the new M1X MacBook Pro. Just please don't get another Razer.

I eliminated Dell XPS 15 (2020) due to the limited ports. Don't want to go back to X1 Extreme because of the coil whine and other annoying bugs.

2) dell xps 15 : problem - intel processor. 3) apple macbook pro or air : problem - expensive and i am currently using windows. Currently I am using an 8 gig ram and 1tb hp pavillion. I am doubtful that whether 256 or 512 gig might help me get through my 4 years.

Hey, so the company I work for gave me a precision 7560, and I just got an xps 15 9520 since I'm starting college this year and needed a new laptop. I know both laptops have an aluminum chassis but the xps' material makes a much clearer ringing sound when touching the vent cover.

I look forward to using the laptop as my primary device and have it in the long run. All opinions are welcome and will be valuable to make purchase.

Light gaming uses only). A good display with minimal bezels( the main turn off for me while looking at gaming laptops, along with battery life). Good battery life( do not expect it to last all day, but should also not be plugged in for the whole day).

I tried the Dell XPS 15 but it was a bust. The thermals on that thing were terrible.

Thinking of downgrading to Win 10!

Honestly, it'll will probably work fine, with a possibility that you may have to rely on generic Microsoft drivers for a few components that would normally have custom Dell drivers.

The Dell XPS 15 is a nice machine. I would probably go with a ThinkPad like the T15g since it comes with the newer RTX 2070 video card. You can spec it our with the i7-10750H cpu with is 6 cores, 12MB cache, and up tot 5ghz. Get it with a single stick of 16 RAM and then add your own or have someone you trust add it since getting extra RAM or a large hard drive is expensive.
