No physical ESC key = trash
Seriously. You're not joking. Trash. Junk.
And it runs Windows which is a complete pain in the ass. Decades worth of crusty software systems, All catastrophically doing mysterious things, that's not user friendly. Mouse drivers that magically change underneath your feet so that it's slowing down the mouse, or requiring some kind of weird delay when you double-click. That's what my last Dell XPS did and that was just like 2 years ago.
Dell has to be joking. How am I going to find F4, for instance? What if I'm doing control F4? I'm going to have to look at it to find it.
What About touch typing? How am I going to find the keys if the seam between keys is thin?
NOTICE @1:39 when Max Tech reviewer says, "I need to mute this thing!" but he doesn't? He DOESN'T mute it because it's difficult. It's just difficult. He would have to squint his eyes and do some kind of function f key and look at the thing and then click it and then make sure that he actually muted it instead of unmuted it.
Windows plus this hardware equals trash.
Agree
And oversized key caps with no spacing between them. It’s been repeatedly demonstrated that such keys increase typos and are very unpopular with users.
What does one even use an Esc key for? 😂😭
@@beckamsalvatore1422 GET ME OUT OF HERE! LOLOLOL !!! Escaping Windows OS == risk of falling to the ground ? !?!?!
yes the 14/16 XPS are bad. similar pricing or even higher than Macbook Pros, but:
- Stupid capacitive function keys
- Trackpad which you can‘t see
- Design over function
- No HDMI, no fullsize SD
- Audio jack on wrong size
- Stock LCD has low resolution
- OLED has strong pwm
- Worse speakers and mic
- Inferior CPU and GPU power
- Inferior performance per watt
- Half the battery life
- Much more fan noise
- Worse resell value
- Windows 11 (lol)
ah, and those ridiculous arrow keys and backspace placing of course
One thing Dell did right is not have that stupid notch.
ye the pwm nobody talks about sadly, same with iphones sadly, i hate it.
Also it's difficult to set the mute, @1:39
Notch drama is overplayed. It doesn‘t take away any space, display area beneath is still full 16:10. Menu bar + notch is extra. For me a good solution.
Love the wallpaper. Does anyone know the name of it?
Many people said that new ASUs rog zephwrus g16 very close to Mac so I think it’s greate to make video to check both models, what you think about it ?
He should really do a comparison of the g14 & g16 with the macbook pro 14 & 16.
Can you compare Dell XPS 14 with Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i
I considered changing to Windows when my 11 year old Macbook needed replacing, but I just hate Windows, so I got a lightly used Macbook Air M2 15" with 16gb and 1Tb - everything about it smacks of quality, and it's 11X faster at applying AI noise reduction to photos in Lightroom lol! (1 min vs 11 min). I hate Apple's prices, but love everything else! Good to see I made the right decision, thanks a lot for all your vids that helped me decide.
if it lasts twice as long, how much more expensive is it REALLY? I mean the REAL price. My Macbook Pro was twice as much as a PC laptop and like yours, lasted 12 years. No one has a story like that about a PC laptop because there simply are none.
@@freecivweb4160That's a lie mate! My hp elitebook from 2014 still works well to this day. It's a bit laggy but currently runs the latest windows 11. Only needed to change batteries and fix the charging port (with a few other minor fixes).
@@fidelisitor8953yeah my very first laptop from 2010 still works fine, and it was just a normal cheap dell I picked up for 400 or 500
@@freecivweb4160there are tons of stories of pc laptops having lasted 20 plus years, I used to work at a e-recycle facility and I saw so many laptops running Win XP or Vista that the only problem was the keys were sticky or missing, easy to fix. After fixing them they ran fine, updated a few to Win 7 too, funny thing tho basically all MacBooks would not boot, tho these were pretty old one, tho much newer then the XP laptops
As a developer, I'm using function keys all the time in Visual Studio. This laptop is a serious fail because of that.
I want to know who at Dell deemed fit to pass that design, as Apple had to ditch it due to negativity? Apple had an excuse; they tried something new, and the majority didn't like it; Dell has no excuse as they should have learnt from Apple.
Not a fail. Not a serious fail. An ABSOLUTE ABOMINATION and winner of the 2024 Abomination in Design Award
I presume while the dell version is similar to apples. I am guessing it is essentially the same two state buttons as a physical keyboard. I personally think with developer support, a true touchbar which could be media controls in UA-cam, brushes / colour palette in Photoshop could have been amazing. The dell appears to be still F1 or function F1 and not a true programmable keyboard. Is that the case?
Not sure if this video mentioned this but the standard screen on the xps is a 1080p screen lol. Nothing wrong with that but for that price you shouldn't need to pay extra for a better screen. Imagine if apple did this for their macbooks lol.
Thanks for sharing! Great video. I returned my new xps after 5 days because of the terrible keyboard and trackpad.
I switched to Mac M1 from Dell XPS... one thing that I can do on mac that I cannot do on XPS or any windows system is : Work on music (Digital Audio Workstation) software without an external soundcard or audio interface. Mac - fire up the software and work. Windows - pull out the audio interface, grab a set of headphones, fire up the software then work.
no external headphone amp needed either (for semipro use)
to be fair. many people can do with asio4all or even realtek asio (for integrated soundcards in some motherboards) and work with good latency. BUT, Windows still has to be optimized for audio work and ideally without internet connection (wifi off specially..). Whereas with MacOS it is more stable and better out of the box. Also the dac and line out I think is better in Macs than most integrated soundcards in laptops and desktops. The cheap alternative is a hackintosh (MacOS on regular hardware that is compatible) specially when you need large amounts of RAM and disk space. There are Mini PCs and Laptops that can be hackintoshed, as welll as full blown desktops and workstations one can build or buy. Also you can pay someone to install it or help you do it. For some, a dedicated Windows PC or Hackintosh without internet connection is best.
Have been using the XPS 13 Plus for the past 15 or so months.
I absolutely love this thing.
Only the battery life and a 60Hz Refresh Rate is what I do not like about this machine [both of which the XPS 14 has improved].
What more about the battery life you could share with us? Im interessed in buy one
@@klaussnatal My XPS' Brightness is always 100%, Keyboard Backlights are always on [the 1st stage/ less bright one], and a ton of apps remain constantly open, like File Explorer, Excel, Edge, Chrome, Firefox, OneNote, Teams, Slack, ClickUp and Outlook.
It is on Best Performance Mode on the Windows settings, and on Optimized in My Dell.
With all this, I get 3-4 hours from the Battery. I won't say shabby, but the fact that my M1 Pro 14' MBP lasts almost twice with the exact same settings [Brightness etc] with the exact same apps running is just insane, infuriating and mind-boggling to say the least.
That MacBook has a Mini-LED Display [as opposed to my XPS' UHD+ IPS Panel], a 120Hz Refresh Rate, not to mention [if I'm not wrong], the MBP has a higher screen brightness [idk if its 500 Nits or more].
With my XPS, I'm always worried about whether it has enough Battery or not.
When I'm in Office, the MacBook dudes carry around their MacBooks without a worry to meetings, round-tables/ discussion tables, cafes etc, as opposed to me, who has to make sure it has enough juice to last that small work chat over coffee with the co-worker/ senior etc.
We're thrilled to hear that you like the Sensel haptic touchpad in the XPS 14! Would love to tell you more about it and what differentiates our technology if you're interested.
You really have changed max I remember you used to talk trash to other companies to the point that it was irritating and now some actual good points mixed in with the insults I am starting to enjoy your channel once more😌
We need a review of the new Asus G14. It looks premium and you can game on it.
It used to be mid-range but is now premium, the price at least in the UK, £2400, which is in line with the XPS 14. However, it does not have all the negatives of the latter.
Dang thats a lot of settings you had to dig into for performance.
I hate the built in trackpad. It ALWAYS has problems picking up clicks when I'm not trying to click, and sometimes the click gets stuck and there's nothing I can do but wait a few seconds for it to unclick. SUPER annoying. In case you're wondering, there are no setting changes that have helped.
2:40
If only there was a big laptop company, that had developed a new standard for RAM modules, that are replaceable and on par with soldered memory, when it comes to speed. Guess we CAMMOT have everything...
A new modular version is coming out called LPCAMM2, but it is likely not to be adopted by the consumer market immediately. It is more for data centres. It has the benefits of LPDDR5X (speed/latency) but is modular. However, it has its own board, so it is not exactly the same. For example, if you have 16GB and want to upgrade to 32GB, you have to buy a 32GB board and have an e-waste 16GB board.
@@ahaimes6320 which is still better than to throw away an entire laptop and if you bought a laptop with 2 8GB sticks and want to upgrade, you will have to throw away two perfectly good RAM sticks.
@@ahaimes6320 ... and have an ebay-able 16GB board.
The windows hello is nice but i mostly use my laptop with an external monitor. It’s an unused feature
I teach at a school (higher education) and I've begun to notice many of my fellow lecturers and professors switch to Mac from windows. What surprised me was that some of these professors teach IT/ Data/ AI (including deep learning) and I've never ever seen them use a Mac . One of them had the XPS model and sold it off after less than a month of using it (he bought the RTX4050 version because he wanted to do some development and machine learning). When I asked why the change, he mentioned how the MacOS reduced a lot of dependency issues and things were much much more streamlined then windows. There's also no point in a GPU enable laptop for AI as cloud computing services are more powerful and efficient.
I am a computer engineer and I feel the same. I use windows because there's certain programs that are just not worth/possible to virtualize or emulate but I'll only use custom built desktops. I will never buy a windows laptop. I feel none of them are built to the quality of a MacBook and I also love the integration between all of my devices, and the OS is simply getting better over the years whereas windows is stagnating. I just wish there was a way to dualboot windows on the M chips but without using parallels or UTM. I daily an i9 12900k/32gb ddr5/3060ti on my windows PC but I also have a 2013 Mac Pro that msrped for $4000 over a decade ago and I got it for $160. It is insanely fast and does everything I need it to. Apple is great if you buy their products second hand. Especially the older M1 chips because they are still pretty fast and you can pick up a MacBook with one for cheap if you look around.
which part of it surprised you?
@@Kburd-wr6dq Parallels isn't that bad, try it.
@@freecivweb4160 I have and still do. It's not terrible but boot camp is better.
@@freecivweb4160 I use parallels and its not favorable. I pirate it and I would never spend the annual fee. I would much prefer bootcamp.
Before I settled for a Macbook, the thing the XPS lineup put me off was the display. Entry models came with FHD screens and were just terrible to work on. Then if you wanted to get a similar "retina" display, you would need to purchase the top end model which becomes way too expensive for an average user.
Well there’s always trade-offs when getting the cheaper model. Entry level MacBook Pros now come with 8GB RAM which is probably worse
the top end is above retina and scales poorly, it's like they have no clue what they're doing lmao. Just make numbers bigger, mostly works on dumb gamers but the rest is immune to it.
@@jhawko1406 oo ye for sure, but i just ignore them, the base price for their macbooks is whatever comes with 16 or 18gb ram. the rest i ignore, they might as well not release it.
@@Wybrem Dumb gamers? 🤣 Most gamers still game in 1080p blud. We care more about fps than resolution as more fps makes games run smoother and strain the eyes less.
@@Wybrem But I agree, UHD+ resolution is too much for a laptop screen. They're just playing a numbers game to attract buyers instead of using an optimal resolution.
Thanks for this video and the interesting comparison. I have been working with Apple based Hardware for the past 10 years and never looked back after switching from Windows. These comparisons are very interesting because I never really bother to see what everybody else is doing. However, at the end of the day it comes down to the operating system itself and for my workflow nothing beats MacOS. If I had to pick something else, I'd go for Linux but why bother buying a Windows based laptop, getting rid of the OS and installing Linux? It doesn't make a lot of sense.
Because basically 99% of laptops outside of macs come with windows pre-installed? So obviously if you want to use linux you would need to install it which isn't hard to be fair. They are some special linux manufacturers like Tuxedo, System76...etc but you will not see their laptops on physical stores like BestBuy.
Some manufacturers like Dell or HP offer a linux option which is cheaper but they offer ubuntu and someone could prefer to use Fedora, OpenSUSE, Arch or Debian.
Sorry but unless I'm mistaken the Windows for ARM games library is pretty poor so I dont understand why you mention that as a distinct advantage vs. the Mac platform!?
They must emulate 99% of the Windows game library to get them running on WOA. I am waiting to see how that works as, so far, some X84/64 apps emulate well, and some suck.
Because windows on ARM is still windows. Almost all PC games are on windows so windows on ARM (WoA) only needs some optimizations to make those games work unlike the macs where the games have to be wholly ported to the mac platform and then get optimized.
WoA was previously held back by the terrible performance of the ARM chips that went into WoA machines but now Qualcomm has solved that issue with the X Elite. Once people start buying more windows on arm devices and Qualcomm makes a more gaming focused ARM chip for gaming laptops, game studios will start porting their games to windows on arm meanwhile nobody's buying macs for gaming even as they're capable. The mac's terrible price to (GPU) performance compared to gaming laptops drive gamers away and their lack of support for standard APIs like vulkan drive game studios away.
@@fidelisitor8953 it’s a different architecture so it’s not a question of optimization but actual porting and for that reason performance is going to take a significant hit. Apple’s M chips are Arm based which is why you can no longer run x86 stuff through boot or virtually.
@@zerohero2800 The main point remains that no one will buy a mac to game on it but if Qualcomm makes a powerful enough chip for gaming and the likes of lenovo and asus use it on their gaming laptops, people will buy it, and of course that includes myself.
Windows default config is overloaded with heavy security and some compatibility features, compared to macOS and Linux. That makes it noticeably heavier in use, especially on ultrabooks.
yeah sure hahah, intel fanboy over here
Try AMD laptop and you'll notice these issues too.
Nice video
Why is socketed RAM slower than soldered on? That makes -0- sense.
I'm baffled how you think that makes zero sense!
One self-evident reason is that the fastest consumer RAM of 7000mHz+ is only on LPDDR5X, and so far, that is not available as a modular choice! Other reasons include the soldered RAM being placed on the SoC for faster access and lower latency compared to modular. LPCAMM2 is coming, which will address some of these, but I am not sure consumers will see it for a while.
@@leebeeskee LOL, you nailed it, people comment as they think they are all electronic engineers hahahha ffs
RAM sockets cause major latency issues plus LPDDR5 is more efficient than socketed DDR5 while having much higher memory speeds and bandwidths. And not having sockets to increase latency also helps.
Snapdragon X Elite ❤❤❤
I'll never buy a laptop without a physical function keys.
You can get a Mac for that price. Except is it really the same price if it lasts longer?
PC manufacters are gonna go Snapdragon and work towards full arm support to compete with Mac. I am sure AMD and Intel are on red alert with X Elite's release. I want a world of Arm Desktop PCs thay support graphic cards, that would be sweet and might force Apple to begin sulporting them on the Mac Pro. Also Hackintosh might be a thing again although probably very difficult to pull off
It's actually really funny how dell has a latitude 9440 and the new 9450 version of the xps 14 that is almost exactly the laptop what I and many other people wanted from the xps 14. It even has a physical function row and stuff. What a constant disappointment from Dell. Should've never expected anything from this.
I assume that in the near future the prices of these new XPSes will be heavily dropped...
For bro's World Windows machine means Dell XPS 😅
Is this a commercial?
The reason I'm not using a Mac is price... Consider this, in my EU country I was considering a 15" MB Air, and I ended up buying an Asus Zenbook 14. Zenbook PROs: 14" OLED screen, one word, gorgeous (and color accurate), 16 GB RAM, 512 GB storage, latest Intel can compete with Apple silicon, CONs: battery life not as long as MB Air, screen a bit smaller, Win 11. But I still get 12 hours of light use (YT, browsing) So all day. Or I could have got a MB Air 15 for almost twice the price of the Zenbook for an IPS panel, 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB of storage, but it has MacOS and the battery would have lasted for 15 hrs instead of 12. Instead I bought another Zenbook 14 for a family member.... Was I wrong? :)
Long term, yes, short term, no. Take it from experience, those windows laptops degrade performance significantly faster over time. They come out of the box and they are amazing, and in a few years it’s overheated and slow. Macs are rarely very impressive at first glance, and you pay more, but in a decade it will probably still be good. So as long as you are fine with upgrading more often then it’s totally worth it to get the Zenbook. It’s always a trade off for everything in life.
Another Way to think about it, which might seem like bs, but I hope not:
How much money is your time worth? How many minutes or hours every week are you going to be spending just a little bit frustrated? Frustrated in a way that the Mac won't frustrate you.
It works both ways of course, if you're not used to Mac OS it can be frustrating. And it took me I think 2 weeks when I first got my Mac years ago to acclimate.
After that, I always thought Mac was more predictable than Windows so I could predict how much time I would have to spend doing things, whereas on Windows it was unpredictable.
@@NickRichards Yeah a big part of that is reliability. Windows forces updates that lock you out of your computer and wont even let you use it until they are done. Over and over for years and years. macOS never does this. And I once ran my MacBook Pro with zero resets, sleeping it when I was done, for a total of around 256 days according to the system settings report. No slowdowns, no overheating, and no updates. I just shook the mouse and got to work for almost a full year with zero problems or interruptions. That kind of maintenance free computing is worth every penny for something we all have to use daily now.
@@ghost-user559 That's a great anecdote ghost user.
This is kind of a tangent .. some More expensive products, compared to their competitors, are not worth the expense. Mac computers seem to be worth the expense.
It has taken me a long time to accept, to trust really, that at least for the MacBooks, those things are a fantastic value when compared to say a Windows computer that's 2/3 the price. I've experienced the same thing that you have, just about ...not 200 and something days though, that is a lot.
If you're getting a PC that's 25% of the price .. you know kind of like a $400 laptop .. that runs Windows And all you're doing is not even really web browsing but maybe watching UA-cam or something, then that's a hard to beat value proposition. However for more complicated things, pulling a bunch of files together to do some bigger project, using one of those computers can be like building a Lego house if your fingers are made out of those tube noodles .. you know the ones that are like that 1/2 in. Ridiculously challenging to get anything done. Noodle hands.
That's why I always get second hand , when you buy one that is just discontinued or close to be you save 400-600 easily
I don’t understand the function keys.... didn’t they learn anything from Apple’s experience? WHY? WHY WHY? this computer would be an almost perfect laptop but that bar on top, specially the lack of a physical ESC key is definitely a deal breaker
I kind of hate touchscreen laptops.. way less comfortable than using a good trackpad and you always have a smudged up display.
Yeah, I'm done with Dell for awhile. That bar at the top was a bad idea.
Top bezel on the Dell is about as big as the MB Airs, yet they fit their camera in there while the MacBook needs that additional huge notch 🤦 Still prefer the MacBook for its performance and macOS 😉
amazing
Macbook is better in almost every department, but still has few major flaws - window management UI is pretty terrible compared to Windows, plus, Macs are getting much slower after few cycles of sleep.
No physical escape and delete keys...what a crap! ARM with Windows will be useless as well because not much native software will be available. I think ARM with Linux is the only right way to go.
Dell XPS 14 with X ultra elite = bliss
Oversized key caps with no spacing between them? No physical escape key? Terrible choices for the keyboard, I wouldn’t even give that machine 5 seconds to try it out. It’s been repeatedly demonstrated that such key caps increase typing errors and are unpopular with users.
My school laptop is intel and i hate it it is a 13th gen i5 and it is a hot chip and is laggy some times when it is warm and it is like they put a v12 in it bc is so loud
Can’t install Linux natively (easily) on a MacBook. “Windows machines” is a terrible term. Power settings are pretty much the same. Drivers are a thing on windows and Linux. As someone who uses all three OS, pick the tool for the job.
use a G14.
MacBook reviewers always omit gaming reviews because AAAgaming on MacBooks is 404 not found 😔
The amount of watts out of this machine is ridiculous. This thing should be like $999.....tops. Just for giggles, I spec'd out the machine to remotely what I would want. It would take the machine to over $2300. I purchased a beast of a machine in the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i, with a 4090, for $2600. The XPS machine is a joke. Dell always reminds me why I purchase competitors machines.
Bro review other windows laptop similar to macbook like zenbook pro , zephryrus 2024 versions. No you can't bcz they are better than macs.
Snapdragon X Elite dell xps❤❤
This piece of trash is more expensive than M3 pro MacBook in my country. I won’t even consider it unless it is 40 - 60% cheaper 😂.
Even if I need a window laptop, for the price, I would rather get the Asus ROG G16.
he says it is expensive and i agree, but what if you put 1TB storage and the similar amount of RAM to macbook air 13 with M3? are we close? i think at least in Europe, yes. because in Germany macbook air 13 with M3, 1TB storage and 24GB Ram costs 2219 EUR with the tax. and i think that is expensive, especially if you consider it is the cheapest option from Apple. Dell has at least better and bigger display with touch option and for me also a nicer design. But that is subjective
How many did he say “butt” ?
I have both a Macbook Pro and this machine. The Mac has at least twice the battery life and no fan noise. This machine has an excellent implementation of Face ID and a quality camera without the ugly notch of the Macbook Pro.. As an engineer I see Apples continued use of the notch to be pure laziness and no reason for it.
When I read "as an engineer," I knew a dumb statement would follow.
You must have no technical training then. It is obvious that the notch on Mac is not a technical necessity
.
The number one issue with Windows laptops for me is: Windows. And the market speaks for itself, Windows is leading a slow death. Their market share is declining every year in a declining market. Yes, less and less people buy a pcs or windows laptops. There's no need. Even gamers are not putting in a dent. Less and less gpus and cpus are sold every quarter. It is dying because of Windows and the ancient hardware. Well ofc also because pricing, who wants to pay 2000dollars for a 4090 that sucks 600watts, it belongs in a museum not for sale.
Agreed. Can’t comprehend how Windows remains so bad even after decades of market dominance and abundant feedback.
@@sam-zf1hq It gets worse every update, now they're adding ads in the start menu etc. The search is useless today, it's just garbage. Their machines come without office or other useful software but luckily they come with Candy Crush lmao. Ye no thanks.
All of Microsoft developer software is bloated and not intuitive. All they care about is Microsoft Office.
@@raybod1775 Ye their software is awful but it runs awful as well,, even on the pcmasterrace gaming machines. it's pathetic how a M1 macbook air with 16gigs is faster in everything BUT rendering.
Don't forget that, they will split into 2 parts soon, x86 and ARM, so even they will lower their own market share. (If you check it from developer view, so when you try to decide which platform you choose for your app/game)
I really do hate it that most notebooks come with Intel chips, they basically suck. Why not AMD? Seriously, AMD chips are by far better than any of the hot trash that Intel's been putting out lately.
Maax 😃
Dell makes terrible computers. I have a 6 year old mid spec Lenovo that blows away the i9 XPS that my employer gave me.
Whats the model of that lenovo?
@@seanwilliams2436 It's one of the Yoga models. I don't remember which one specifically. It's not that the Lenovo is amazing or anything, it's that the Dell is just really bad. Terrible cooling means it's always throttling (even when just using it for basic tasks) and it has terrible battery life.
Ok
Ill buy a Windows laptop when my 14" M2pro dies in 7years lol
If the SSD doesn't die earlier from all that swap and render the device useless.
Compare it with g14
How about wait on comparing the Snapdragon base laptop until it’s actually released… some of the tests look promising, but the Achilles heel is Windows for Arm, which is currently junk and what current Apps have been ported to Win11/arm? ZERO that I know of. So just wait until it’s released and then talk about it.
Mac haters have to get excited over vaporware or else they have nothing to say.
Apple silicon is king 🤴
Dell 14 seems great but Intel is slacking, Dell 14 with Snapdragon Elite and Full Size SD card! Wow! Hopefully Snapdragon works nice with Intel, Nvidia or AMD for GPU cards in the future.
Snapdragon X Elite ❤❤
Dell XPS 14 isn't even the best prosumer laptop from Windows PCs. HP Spectre x360 14 and Asus Zenbook 14x OLED are better choices.
And there's also the Asus g14 2024.
говорить о производительности чипов snapdragon x elite, не имея его на руках - абсолютная глупость
Agreed, just get a used XPS 15 instead of this garbage
RTX 4050 6gb
😂
DELL Will Win the Battle to Apple when they use the Snapdragon Elite X Chip
No
@@josephle2381 yes don't be afraid
It will be an improvement for sure, but it's much slower and uses more energy, but even if that was not the reality, it has 1 major downside, Dell's still use Windows. Nobody wants Windows.
We’ll see… Windows on ARM will still be an issue, and the lack of native apps. So it will probably take years before Windows on ARM can seriously compete with Apple.
@@AndyJMacLeod Windows on X86 is an issue as well lmao. It doesn't matter what they do, they hardware could be superior for all I care and I'd still get a Mac.
Asus
1st
Just another Dell Trashtop...
Bro all the people on the commens are apple fanboys 💀😭 ( The xps is supposed to be costly bc its their top end system so if u cant afford it then dont just tell that dell is bad go for their mid rangers like the inspiron series whoch is good enough for daily users)
The XPS 14 is the MB Pro 14 M3 Pro rival in price, so that is a good comparison. Most people praise the XPS line because of its looks; he just points out that form over function is alright for some people, but for the majority who want the best, there are better choices than the XPS 14.
@ahaimes6320 yea but I have used asus zenbooks and like hp laptops and also lenevo laptops but overall even if Dell costs more they are gud and better overall only if u canr afoord like am being honest
@ahaimes6320 and also
Hp- bad battery life
Asus- very gud but ok thermals not best
Lenevo- pretty gud but I don't like
Dell- overall battery and performance they know how to manage

x86 sucks
XPS 2024 is a trash
if you're gaming on a laptop, you shouldn't buy a laptop. Macbook still on top
Dumb take. Not everyone has the space for a desktop and having a portable device that can be taken to school or at least be lugged around the house is a lot more convenient than being rooted to a desk all the time.
I'll never buy a mac because I can't game on it and do my 3d stuff like I do on my windows laptop (even though I hate windows for it's instability and other issues). The macs are too expensive when you configure them to a useable ram and storage and they don't offer OLED displays (I'm a little biased but...) so I'll never buy one.
Another dumb take from a apple user trying to make excuses. People can't haul a desktop everywhere and being able to play games on the go is a major factor for many to consider.
why do u talk so slow & exaggerated? still this laptop is awful due to dell refusing to fix the design. physical number row, slightly thicker design for better thermals & OLED BEING STANDARD. cheapest model is an absolute joke.
According to some Apple fanboys, eventually, the world will revolve around Apple and its products. 🫨
It already does. Every Android exists only because of iPhone, and Windows OS literally started as a board room meeting of "OMG we have to copy that or we're toast"
