Awesome comprehensive review, just got the 9575 4k, looking forward to that screen.

You're going to love it. It's beautiful. Enjoy your machine!

Nice review, glad you like your XPS. I found a local seller on a classified site and picked up a XPS 9250 w/ i7 -12700H, 16gb ram, 512gb SSD and RTX 3050i graphics card. It only had the FHD 1920x1200 ips screen but I typically hook it up to my OLED tv and close the lid and use an external kybd/mouse. I'm very happy with it so far, I'm an eletronics engineer and have to run windows for the programs I use and this thing is very fast. I got it for an insane price of $250 so I upgraded to 32gb for another $100. It's a 2022 model but I think I'll redo the paste as you did on the cpu and gpu to see if it runs cooler. Keep up the good work, I did subscribe and hope to see what the other laptop you picked up is.

@TaylorBrauer 2 месяца назад

Thank you! Wow you found one for a great price. That 12700H is no slouch, either. Enjoy!

@mrrockenrock Месяц назад

Great video review! I have had the XPS15 9570 since early 2019. It has been a great laptop. It goes to work with me every day. I just bought a replacement palmrest w keyboard because the palmrest finishing got sticky and soft. Is your palmrest sticky?

@TaylorBrauer Месяц назад

Glad you're still enjoying it. My trackpad is solid, so far. Did you have any trouble finding parts?

@amazingvidphilosopher9945 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for this amazing review. As of someone who’s willing to buy a new laptop, i was wondering what about a older laptop with insane specs and this made me wanna buy one for sure. The only matter i am concerned about is the noise in fans. I’ve had an asus rog and it did bother me a lot specially in class. I was wondering if this laptop has fan noise issue. Again thank you so much and i really enjoyed the video! Cheers mate!

@TaylorBrauer 11 месяцев назад

Yw! Sorry for the late reply. I’ll check and get back to you as a I don’t recall how loud it got.

Dude! Merry Christmas to you. Have you decorated a Texas cactus for your home? Is there anything you can’t do? Amazing brain in your head and so talented and gifted. Have a great holiday and I’m looking forward to your video’s next year. How come you haven’t reviewed your Apple Watch Ultra? I’m waiting to purchase until you give approval. 😂Cheers!

@TaylorBrauer Год назад

Merry Christmas, Pete. haha no cactus but I have a light that spins and projects snowflakes on the walls, so that's pretty neat. Thanks for the kind words and more videos to come next year. I'm working my way up to the AWU. That one I feel like is going to be a big project that I haven't put time into producing, yet. It's a great Apple device and it deserves a quality video.

@lucasbunting-dossantos3180 Год назад

Im (hopefully) getting the i9 version soon for $470 (375GBP), meeting with the dealer and going to test everything! This review is giving me hopes!

@TaylorBrauer Год назад

That sounds like a good deal. Hope you enjoy!

@Omega_Mark 7 месяцев назад

The i9 will get throttled in this laptop, as the cooling system is not designed for it. Stick with i7, if possible. This is for anyone else who is thinking about getting that i9, as you probably already have it;).

Isn’t the thermal pad supposed to be on the memory stick? My 5520 had it on the back plate to. I removed it and attached it to the memory stick. Did I do something wrong?

@axelcuevas7250 Год назад

Hey, I'm planning to buy one from the same seller, I'll be using it mainly for coding and watching series (I'm wondering if it could run some emulators like cemu or yuzu). So I would like to thank you for your review and advice, and if you have anything else to say about your experience with the device or if you had any other issues like throttling or random restarts, I would like to know. Thanks in advance (sorry for any misspelling, english is not my native language)

@TaylorBrauer Год назад

It's great for web dev and consuming content. Not sure on emulators but the 8750h is still a fairly powerful cpu. The laptop has been great. Glad you enjoyed the video!

I bought that laptop in 2018 still using it still going strong for my needs (programming mostly ), but 2:43 those screws are easily stripped.

Nice! Glad yo hear it's been working out for you all this time. Yeah, those screws are a bit delicate.

@krutikquiran8184 Год назад

Thinking of picking one up, not sure if it’s worth getting the i9 version especially when it’s 6 core, I think the i7 you have is 6 core too?

@TaylorBrauer Год назад

The i7s seem to be the better processors in these machines as the i9s do thermal throttle. Even when these were new.

@lamineabassi3238 Год назад

Is there a difference in the performance of the 2018, 2019 and 2020 versions ؟.Would you recommend the 2018 version for use in the field of Mechanical Engineering.

@TaylorBrauer Год назад

I'd recommend which ever one has the highest graphics card spec that is still within your budget. You'll most likely be using CAD a lot in mech eng which craves graphics power.

Everything I really needed to know was the current batterylife of the XPS 😭 Watched the whole video though 🥲👍🏻

@GLfortex Год назад

Did the battery fix the problem? I have one that I got in 2018 that has that exact same issue, though the battery report is healthy.

@TaylorBrauer Год назад

It did! It's a very odd issue.

@ajmcomputerstuff8596 9 месяцев назад

Mine did too. Replaced the battery (easy) and works like new.

@Omega_Mark 7 месяцев назад

Looks like at least one of the cells was dead, so he had to replace all of them, as they are joined in parallel.

Im looking to get this exact same laptop with the same specs mainly for school, im doing cyber security. The price i found it for is $250 used but excellent condition. Is it worth it? Or any other better options?

@TaylorBrauer 2 месяца назад

That's a pretty good find. You'll be using linux a lot with CS which won't be as heavy as Windows. I'm not certain of all your use cases to say if it's worth it or not but I personally wouldn't have a problem picking this up for CS school work.

@gasparg9030 2 месяца назад

Mainly school since i have a gaming desktop that i pretty much use for daily gaming. Really just looking for something to be more mobile with and have it to just focus on school and starting out my CS career.

@@Matanumi luckily my seller had a reserve one he sent out to me. If you can't get ahold of the seller you can always buy new from parts-people.

You are better off getting a laptop with a smaller NVME drive (so it's cheaper) and replacing it with a nice and new Samsung drive, either 1 or 2 TB.

@abdulrehmanbaber2104 4 месяца назад

I wanted to buy this but i am reading alot of issues in Reddit plateform, usually cos thermal throttling... :(

@TaylorBrauer 4 месяца назад

It does thermal throttle, yes. However, I think you have to look at it for what it is. It's a slim laptop with not a lot of opportunities to exhaust heat. That's due to the massive processor Dell puts in these. There's tons of performance metrics on this laptop by now so I'd recommend looking at those and if that performance is what you are looking for then perhaps this laptop may suit your needs. Despite the thermal throttling, mine was able to edit 4k h.265 footage which is pretty impressive given this is an older laptop.

@justswitched8841 8 месяцев назад

It’s a good laptop but honestly for that price you could have gotten something newer
