Dell XPS Deals & Offers

No worries, just wanted to let you know! Thanks for posting the deal

Thanks

Sorry

Price is excuding VAT. Thought it was too good to be true (horror)

thanks for sharing your first deal.have some heat :)

Would also like a link, please. Would buy the Huawei over the Dell if still available at that price.

Yeah the customer support could be a worry but I hope huwai are well established enough now, I've not seen any bad reviews for huwai build quality, pretty much the opposite, every youtube reviewer gushed over it. Personally I'd still be happy with 1080 (or equivalent for the 3 by 2 aspect) on a small 13" laptop, mainly to save on battery but I don't have/use any 4k content. That said I'm loving the screen on mine, picture is awesome the bezels are none existent, goes incredibly bright but can be used comfortable at around 20% indoors. The thing powers up very fast, the fingerprint reader reads your nose picker as soon as you press the power button unlocking instantly. I ummed and ahhd for weeks over which laptop to buy, nearly went for the Lenovo yoga c930 hp spectre x360 or elite x360. There's loads of reasons why I chose this over others but the dedicated graphics card sealed the deal for me I would've loved this in a 2 in 1 form factor but I hardly ever used my last 2 in 1 laptop in anything other than laptop mode. I'm currently playing civilization 6 on it, the base is warm and the fans are constantly running but the game is running perfectly.

Have you got a link for that price please? I only found the 16gb version from dodgy looking sites or over £1800 on Amazon.

Illustrator? Really... that's worrying. I'm wondering if I should spend less on an equivalently specced Lenovo Ideapad 720S 14 (except for UHD).

I use all of the above sometimes but mainly illustrator and was even getting some lag using illustrator. Nearly went for the surface book but thankfully saw the X Pro before buying. Been looking to buy it since September but availability has been next to none.

Thank you, ordered

£2000 laptop in a £6 bag?

You must be new here.

are there loops at the end for a shoulder strap?

MS aggressively shut down any illegal companies. The biggish companies that sell the cheap licences, for Windows & office & games etc, like the established ones in hukd deals, are validating their batches before buying & selling with MS or other software firms. Windows-wise, they're not selling RETAIL licenses, they're selling OEM. Retail enjoys support including telephone from MS which costs MS, in India. OEM does not have any support, they're extracted from decommissioned OEM machines and hence cheap, corporate ex lease batches. On bootup, MS servers nowadays quickly detect if a serial is used elsewhere on another bios and deactivates that machine fast. It's not like the old days. They tried to legally stop OEM batch reselling, but it's deemed a commodity, paid for, and viable to resell. You can see if your licence is Retail or OEM in a pop-up box, launched with command: slmgr -dli

Back in day you could buy a cracked distributor account for 30 quid and generate hundreds of codes, stacks selling on eBay for few quid, being a licence from ms at 80 quid I highly doubt ms sell them for this willingly still

No that's the common misconception. I could go into it for a page or two. MS chases illegal key sellers, and they are shut down fast. There are others though that sell licenses for much cheaper than MS in large numbers daily in UK/EU. This niche industry is a legal business models. There are codes and can ask MS too. Also a serial already in use, will be flagged and will be deactivated by MS servers within a day or two. Most scammers either sell keys googled online, tons of them, or do not bother to send any before shutting up shop fast. The legal niche industry, takes awhile to explain. There are many deals on hukd for them too. They are not hijackers, they are old legal businesses.

The licenses are legit but gotten illegally, Microsoft have distributors account that get hijacked and codes taken, they have no way of tracking them, won’t have a problem just saying :)

Asus definitely a keeper, until Samsung Pro halves in price to around £200 on eBay. (excited)

Is 4% hot?????

Perhaps, but surely you can't use student discount and claim this as expenses + flat rate VAT?

U can get a 10% discount code from dell support for Ur first order just easly write email to them with a request. That make U a price arround 1395£

You have to apply for discount code via dell student and use NUS card as proof. Takes a few days.

NUS works ??

Don't need the code , just redeem the 40% promotional message.

Anyone seen any decent top loading sleeves? Makes life much easier with a rucksack

Code is not longer working 9R787C37

Ideal OP, will see if this will accept the Porsche Book.

13” obviously

Dell’s words not mine, they could be being cheeky and be saying this if it requires a student discount to be applied too? Anyway, here’s a screenshot of discounts for the XPS 15.

Not one of the machines on the linked page have £250 off. Am I missing something as I'm in the market for a new xps15 9570?

Real students (need letter of acceptance and photo of ID needed) can also get 15% off on Dell Outlet which includes the XPS range.

The link is working. I have no idea why people vote cold for this. You can even get an extra 10% if you are a student with unidays code.

Link works for me unless its been edited since your post?

But what if you want to wear it on your shoulder

Also have one for my XPS 13 and it's excellent. Also like how its showerproof, so fine when out and about and heaven's decide to open!.

Great sleeve. Have been carrying 1+year on regular use and still going strong

nice to see yet another inateck post by the mods

just need to be careful when taking the device out.. easily slip out..

Should have an ssd at this price imo.

Xps's aren't widely marketed for gamers, it's not a gaming laptop, it's for content creators who need portability.

This chassis can barely handle the 1050 as it is. You need something a lot chunkier to keep the 1060 cool.

I looked into doing it with mine but didn't bother in the end. Seems like you'll run into a lot of issues with drivers and you'll need to replace the WiFi card. As far as I'm aware the 1050 won't work at all either. Depends what you need it for I guess.

i would steer clear, its only got a gtx 1050 4gb, you could possibly find a 1060 6gb for around this price which is twice as fast at gaming, then again this model is really sleek.

Personally I wouldn’t touch HP or Lenovo for their laptop ranges, bad experiences with built quality with Lenovo, and driver/software support from HP is abysmal. Not to be accused of being a fanboy... but those MacBooks are worth the money! (lol)

The dell screen is supposed to be better than the macbooks. In terms of nits too. I didnt know about the precision range. Ill look into it What about Spector and x1 carbon Id add sb2 but minus nits Thanks for the advice

The obvious choice is a MacBook Pro (another 100% RGB screen) - there’s a reason they’re so popular with photographers and video creators. Failing that, the Dell Precision range uses the same screens, but both options are extra £££ :/

But if screen is a priority what would you choose for that, power and user-friendly. Ie photo/video edits Thanks

once upon a time yes but not anymore. all the reviews ive been reading for the dell lineup are pretty much all the same in saying they are very unreliable now

I don't recall that. Was looking to buy one of these if it came down to £700 let alone to £400ish. I saw nothing like the price you mention on Prime Day and I was looking regularly from the day before.

Back in stock

Congratulations and well done ;)

Cold, got the i7 8550u version of this for £450 on prime day!

Who bought last one? Expired

No. All fine for me!

I googled it. If you press FN + Esc it enables/disables the function keys lol...All working fine now. However, do you experience it feels laggy sometimes?

Xps is a premium product, should be faultless out of the box.

Try the dell support. They're really good!

It started working automatically. Doesnt look smooth though. The blacks looks grainy and spotty. Might have to find a way to calibrate the display

also these: https://mcscom.co.uk/shop/dell-laptops/inspiron-homeoffice/refurbished-by-mcs/?orderby=price-desc quite a few 1050 models with higher specs like this one / DELL INSPIRON 15 GAMING 7567 I7 7700HQ 2.80GHZ 16GB 128GB M.2 SSD 1TB GTX 1050TI 15.6″ UHD 4K :) £798 https://mcscom.co.uk/product/dell-inspiron-15-gaming-7567-i7-7700hq-2-80ghz-16gb-128gb-m-2-ssd-1tb-gtx-1050-ti-15-6-uhd-4k-win-10-1yr-rtb-wty-mln152/

Because Volta is due out soonish, when laptops come out with 1160's, that's when you'll see the 1060 ones drop to the floor but until then it's make as much money off the things as possible.

I almost bought that one, but that's a whole kilo heavier and I'm not sure if the extra horsepower that I'll use maybe once, is worth the extra heft of it.

its a form factor thing really, obviously can get higher spec for the same money but trade off is a larger chassis

It will be better than an XPS for gaming and should do the 'all round' stuff fine. I haven't looked at this model as I want the bit-sturdier and more compact XPS. It is worth checking some reviews to see if it suffers from thermal throttling too badly - the smaller XPS does, but it becomes less of an issue the bigger you go (the Alienware in the same deal will be much better on that side, but is massively bigger/heavier too!)

Cheers. Do you think the G5 I sent is worth it for a good all round gaming and general laptop? Hoping to pick it up tomorrow

No: this is the one: https://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/laptops-notebooks-and-2-in-1-laptops/new-xps-15/spd/xps-15-9570-laptop/cnx97003 The G series is more biased towards games. While the XPS doesn't have quite as good graphics card (1050ti) and is more of a business/premium/'do it all' option. Mine will be used for programming in multiple IDEs, WAMP server, *lots* of browser tabs and so on. I have a seperate PC for gaming, the little I find time for that! I definitely want 32gb RAM at least - hopefully the deal tomorrow will make it cheaper for me to get this and upgrade than to have bought the 32gb model in the first place. (Maybe get a bit back selling the 2x 8gb modules.)

That’s the g5?

Hello. Is it this? https://www.dell.com/en-uk/shop/laptops-notebooks-and-2-in-1-laptops/new-dell-g5-15/spd/g-series-15-5587-laptop/cn55813

Mine too (y)

Hi Vincent, sorry for late message. I meant to thank you for posting such a great deal. The laptop arrived yesterday and looks like new. Thanks again

Probably because there was only 1 and also pot luck what you actually get. I’ve had 11 items returned to the warehouse last month that turned up with various issues.

Not sure how this went cold, great spec for the money.

256gb of RAM?
