The Dell XPS 15 2017 is a 2-in-1 device with great specs. It has been likened to be a MacBook Pro for PC fans. It could even compete against the upcoming Microsoft Surface Pro 5.
According to a report by Ars Technica, the new XPS 15 is a mix of sturdy and svelte. It strikes a good balance between size and speed. This year's model has a very power-efficient GPU, a new Kaby Lake CPU, and a fingerprint reader.
The latest version of the Dell XPS 15 is essentially a bigger version of the thin-bezeled XPS 13. It has an aluminum lid and bottom combined with a soft-touch palm rest and handy keyboard tray. The backlit keyboard and Microsoft Precision Touchpad make this the perfect MacBook Pro alternative for Windows users.
In another report by Pocket Lint, the website said that the Dell XPS 15 2017's top selling point was its small size. It packs a lot of power considering its 2 kg weight, 17 mm thickness, and 36 cm width.
The Dell XPS 15 2017 comes with either a base 1080p IPS screen with no touch support and a 4K touchscreen with Adobe RGB support. The new 2-in-1 device also has a special app called PremierColor with the unit. It has vibrant settings as well as the P3 gamut. It easily switches between Adobe RGB, P3, and sRGB. While the 1080p screen is decent, it is a bit low-res for a modern laptop.
The laptop runs Windows 10 Home on a quad-core 2.8 GHz Intel i7-7700HQ. There is also a dual-core option. It comes with either Intel's HD 630 integrated GPU or a Nvidia GTX 1050. It also has an 8 GB RAM which is upgradeable up to 32 GB. It has a starting price of $999.99 and goes up to $2,074.99.
The Dell XPS 15 2017 is a fascinating 2-in-1 device that is perfect for loyal PC users who want all the perks of a 15-inch MacBook Pro. In addition, it could even potentially rival the upcoming Microsoft Surface Pro 5.
