43 hours battery life: Dell XPS 14 2026 lasts almost 3x longer vs MacBook Air 15 M5 in web browsing test
Dell XPS 14 & 16 is designed to rival MacBook Pro 14” & 16”. putting it against the Air is just weird in the first place and intentionally misleading for the people less familiar with this stuff… not to mention the Air models have significantly smaller battery capabilities than the Pros MacBook Pros

Asus Co-CEO: MacBook Neo Is a 'Shock' to the PC Industry

Can I run ED on a Dell XPS laptop?
That Dell XPS is incredibly low value for what you are paying for it. It can most likely run it, since E:D will run on basically anything above a toaster. But only a 512 GB SSD is basically criminal for two grand. As much as I hate the bloatware they come with, I find the HP Victus line to be decent

Any good recommendations for college? Budget is $900-$1500
Tell us your preferences first. Will u use it for gaming? Do u prefer battery life over performance? How light do u want the laptop to be? If u don’t game, then MacBook is one of the best out there. If u don’t like Macs, then Dell XPS series, Lenovo Thinkpads, yoga slim 7x, HP omnibook, MS surface p

Dell XPS 16 : should I pull the trigger ?
Yeah I'm torn between this (though I'd get the cheaper X7 358H chipset as the gain of the X9 doesn't seem to be worth the extra £££ and probably 32GB) and the Samsung Galaxy Book 6 Pro (X7/32GB/1TB). I've had a Dell XPS in the past and it was great but the 2 things that have me swaying towards the S

Can I run ED on a Dell XPS laptop?
That model uses the Intel 7 355. The integrated GPU in that is the Intel Graphics 4 Xe3. Its performance is... not very good. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Graphics-4-Xe3-Panther-Lake-Benchmarks-and-Specs.1193658.0.html About the only good thing I can say about it is that it about matches the

Laptop recommendations
A bit late to the party, but I will "echo" some of the sentiments already in the thread.I am currently a postdoc in comp chem, and I started "messing with these things (e.g. linux distros)" since I was in HS, as many of our fellow nerds. The TL;DR answer would be that nowadays most laptops are decen

This makes zero sense laptops never last as long as they say they will. But WHY?
There was a time when this was absolutely true. Panther Lake (and lunar lake before it) has closed the gap. Notebookcheck actually does idle power consumption tests. The Dell XPS 16 running Panther Lake averages 1.3w-4.6w at idle. The best performing Macbook averages 1.5w-9w at idle. Your right in r
