What do you call a new 15-inch laptop that offers the latest Intel and Nvidia chips along with a giant battery and 32GB of RAM? Dell’s answer: not the Apple MacBook Pro 15!
Nope. If you want the latest tech and a ton of RAM, Dell says to skip that MacBook Pro 15 in favor of its own updated XPS 15, which as of Thursday, now packs Intel’s latest 7th-generation Kaby Lake quad-core CPUs along with Nvidia’s new GeForce GTX 1050 GPU.
For the most part, this is an iteration of the XPS 15 which got a full redesign last year.
DellMost of the remaining upgrades to the XPS 15 are evolutionary but that can be a good thing since the company isn’t actually taking away your favorite ports just to torture you. Besides the full-sized HDMI port, you also get a Thunderbolt 3 port that supports charging along with two USB Type A at 3Gbps and an SD card reader. Since the XPS 15 also supports the legacy barrel charger, you won’t lose a port when you charge the device. And yes, while MacBook Pro fans have been screaming over Apple’s decision to limit the MacBok Pro to 16GB of RAM, Dell can pack the XPS 15 with up to 32GB of DDR4 memory.
