Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I’ve been running an XPS 9510 with Ubuntu and it works well out of the box. It helps that Dell supports Ubuntu.
  • I loved that machine
  • Literally my dream laptop and just could not afford it, even at the lowest trim level.

Cons

  • Mine has started to crash almost daily. "An unexpected error has occurred and Windows needs to be restarted".
  • My XPS 9510 is a few years old now and recently started shutting down while playing videos full screen. I eventually figured out it was just overheating (frequently >=100C in Core Temp)
  • I loved that machine. Great powerhorse! Was kinda noisy when the fans were running. Did help a while to replace the thermal paste
  • I got attacked several times by my XPS 9510, only when opening it up tho.
  • My XPS 9510 is a funny bugger of a machine and does all sorts of whacky stuff like this.

After my 15" 9510's RTX3050ti disappeared and would not reinstall, I moved to the Asus Zeph G14

Currently, I have an XPS 9510 with 16GB RAM, 4K screen, 512GB SSD, i7-7700, and GTX 3050 Ti. ... Despite fresh Windows installs, full resets, and other troubleshooting, it’s still glitchy and slow, which is frustrating.
