XPS
Product series:
Product series is a brand's indication, often indicated by round numbers like 3000, that identifies a group of products within one category that are technically very similar. We don't include product serie in the Icecat product title on a product data-sheet to avoid confusion.
15

Product name is a brand's identification of a product, often a model name, but not totally unique as it can include some product variants. Product name is a key part of the Icecat product title on a product data-sheet.
15
Product code:
The brand's unique identifier for a product. Multiple product codes can be mapped to one mother product data-sheet if the specifications are identical. We map away wrong codes or sometimes logistic variants.

Category:
A notebook, also known as laptop, is a portable computer. When you are looking for the right notebook, it is important to know where you are going to work with it. Do you want to use it on the road? Choose a model with a special energy-saving 'mobile' processor, a good battery and a reasonably small display. This will allow you to work longer with the same battery and saves you the trouble of carrying around a large display that consumes a lot of precious battery power. Or will you be using you notebook mainly in places where you will have access to a power outlet? Then choose a desktop processor (more processing power for less money) and an ordinary battery. This will save you a lot of money, which you could then spend on a bigger screen. You'll work faster because you can view more information at once and it's great for multimedia!

Meet the smallest 15-inch laptop on the planet.
The world’s only 15-inch InfinityEdge display: The virtually borderless display maximizes screen space by accommodating a 15-inch display inside a laptop closer to the size of a 14-inch , thanks to a bezel measuring just 5.7mm , 59% thinner than the Macbook Pro.

One-of-a-kind design: Measuring in at a slim 11-17mm and starting at just under 4 pounds with a solid state drive, the XPS 15 is the world’s lightest 15-inch performance-class laptop.

Microsoft and Dell have just raised the bar. Again
The best windows ever meets the best Dell ever. The result? A whole new era of power, performance and productivity. Windows 10 give you all the features you know from the world’s most popular operating system, plus great improvements you’ll love. Enhance all you do with the new Windows 10 features:

Here to help: Easily interact with your own personal digital assistant: Cortana. Using Cortana with a Dell PC equipped with Waves MaxxAudio® Pro gives you a natural voice interaction experience.

Start it up: You’ll feel like an expert from the get-go since your Windows Start menu is back in an expanded form. Plus, all your pinned applications will carry over so your experience is familiar, productive and better than ever.

Stay unplugged: Stay untethered for even longer: All Windows 10 devices now have Battey Saver to automatically conserve power so you can get more done for longer.

A stunning view, wherever you go
Dazzling UltraSharp™ 4K Ultra HD detail: Choose phenomenal display technology with the optional UltraSharp™ 4K Ultra HD (3840x2160) touch display. With over 8 million pixels – 3 million more than the MacBook Pro and four times that of Full HD – high resolution allows you to see everything you do in incredibly fine detail.

Industry-leading color: XPS 15 is the only laptop with 100% minimum Adobe RGB, so you get a true representation of Adobe color that’s rich, vivid and bold. And with the Dell PremierColor application, webpages, videos and images are automatically adjusted into Adobe RGB format for the most accurate color, every time.

Easy collaboration: See your screen from nearly every angle with an IGZO IPS panel, providing a wide viewing angle of up to 170°.

Brighten your day: With 400 nit brightness, the display is brighter than a typical laptop.

Touch friendly: Tap, swipe and pinch your way around the screen. The optional touch display lets you interact naturally with your technology.

Powerhouse performance
Super-speed processors: The most powerful XPS laptop we’ve ever built includes the latest 6th Gen Intel® Quad Core™ processors and an optional 2GB3 NVIDIA® GeForce™ GTX 960M graphics card (2GB GDDR5 video memory) so you can blaze through your most intensive tasks.

Maximum memory and storage: The XPS 15 supports up to 16GB3 of memory with a bandwidth of 2133MHz, 1.3 times the speed of 1600MHz options, so you can get to your content quicker. Expandable storage up to 1TB³ standard hard drive or optional solid state drive (SSDs), available in faster PCIe versions, provide plenty of storage room and high-performance responsiveness that lets you boot and resume in seconds so you can do more without waiting.

Stay powered longer: The battery lasts up to 11 hours4. Add additional battery life with the optional Dell Power Companion.

Essential productivity at your fingertips
Leading-edge connectivity: Thunderbolt™ 3 multi-use port allows you to charge your laptop, connect to multiple devices (including support for up to two 4K displays) and enjoy data transfers up to 40Gbps , which is 8x faster than USB 3.0. Also includes two USB 3.0 ports.

Advanced docking: Featuring a single-cable connection for power, Ethernet, audio and video. Add the optional Dell Thunderbolt™ Dock for faster data transfers and support for up to three Full HD displays or two 4K displays.

Pinch, zoom and click with confidence
The precision touch pad prevents jumping and floating cursors, while Accidental Activation Prevention puts a stop to unintentional clicks when your palm hits the touch pad.

See what you’ve been missing
A standard backlit keyboard illuminates your keys so you can stay productive in low-light or no-light rooms.

Cool under pressure: The palm rest is made from carbon fiber. It's strong and thin like aluminum, but lighter and cooler to the touch.

The greenest XPS laptops ever
Power-efficient: XPS 15 is ENERGY STAR® certified.

Smarter materials: Built with the environment in mind, XPS 15 is free of materials like cadmium, lead, mercury and some phthalates. It's EPEAT Gold registered and BFR/PVC free.

The recently introduced series of Dell XPS 15 9550 Touch and Non-Touch laptops has been getting a lot of attention. These devices are loaded with high-tech goodness - in fact, there's no doubt in my mind that Dell served them up targeting would-be MacBook...
Bottom line I've found a lot of mostly minor things to pick on, but don't be misled by that. The Dell XPS 9550 is a well-designed, well-equipped laptop, and although Windows 10 isn't perfect, it's a whole lot better than Windows 8. Together they're a pleasure to use...

Dell's high-end XPS laptops, such as the XPS 15, have used a familiar aesthetic for several years now with a carbon fibre-style material on the wrist rest and a smooth metal covering the lid and base. Although this might appear staid to some, its timeless...

Laptops can usually be split into one of a few different camps. There are chunky gaming laptops that'll give you back-ache, but can handle running The Witcher 3 like no other. There are super-ultra slim laptops with amazing battery life. Or those fancy pa...

Dell has hit a rich seam of form in recent months. Now, it's taken the elegant carbon-fibre and metal design of the XPS 13 and scaled it up to create the company's most stylish 15in laptop yet, the Dell XPS 15. Throw in the latest quad-core Skylake proces...
Bottom line Aside from a handful of niggles, and the somewhat disappointing battery life, though, Dell should be patting itself on the back for delivering yet another top-notch Windows 10 laptop. The XPS 15 is powerful, portable and equipped with all the features any...

Much like how the XPS 13 is afforded the chassis of a typical 11.1in laptop thanks to its almost bezel-less 13.3in screen, the XPS 15 packs a 15.6in display into a much smaller chassis than your typical 15in laptop. It’s not quite as svelte as the XPS 13...

Bottom line The Dell XPS 15 is a stunning laptop. It doesn't have the instant visual impact of the diminutive XPS 13, but there's no doubt it's packed plenty of power into a streamlined 15.6in laptop. It marries performance with stylish looks, and it more than meets...

Bottom line The Dell XPS 15 is a faithful, up-sized rendition of the innovative XPS 13. Like its predecessor, the 15-incher cuts back on size and weight without sacrificing performance. In fact, the XPS 15 is a major leap over the previous model, at least in its to...
