In our Dell XPS 15 review, this system handles some seriously tough multitasking — we had 20 Chrome tabs, a YouTube video and Slack running simultaneously without any slowdown. And the 15.6-inch OLED display looks impressive, too. We measured an average brightness of 382 nits and 122% coverage of the sRGB color gamut. Colors popped off the screen and movies looked vibrant. This laptop has a great set of speakers as well.
The Dell XPS 15 OLED also has a great design. It has a roomy backlit keyboard and a responsive touchpad. It measures 0.73 inches-thick and weighs 4.2 pounds, so we found it comfortable to carry around. In terms of ports, this laptop has three USB-C ports, an SD card slot and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Unfortunately, this laptop doesn't match the 2023 MacBook Pro 16-inch's 19-hour battery life. Still, we got 10 hours and 5 minutes out of our Dell XPS 15 OLED in our battery tests, which is enough to get most people through a typical work day.
The Dell XPS 15 OLED is an awesome laptop, so snag this deal before it's gone if you have your eye on it. Or, check out our laptop deals coverage for more options.
