Next week starts a brand new photography series on the channel which means weekly videos once again, so I got a new XPS laptop to hopefully make the workload a little easier to handle! Wanted to stress test it and put it through its paces with the programs we all use and see how it holds up! What do you think?? Is it a keeper???
What a relief to view an excited reviewer that does not put down other products! As a dual platform user, mac and PC, I know that both works well and that arguments often are used to support bias. Seems like you know your stuff, and I must admit that your enthusiasm spreads to me as a viewer. :-)
I've been preeing the Dell XPS for years tryna decide if it was the right thing for me as a 2D, 3D & Video designer. And you just literally smashed all doubts. 👌🏾 It's a sure thing now. Thank you!
Xps 15 user here, specifically the xps 15 9500 (2020) model but had the laptop for more or less a year now and tbh it's been pretty great. Fortunately when I got my model back in dec 2020 it had the wobbly trackpad issue so I had to send it back for a replacement unit but overall been solid for the past months. The screen not to mention has been awesome to work with when I color correct photos and videos. Only gripes I had was the battery life being abysmally short like 4.5 hours light use but 2 when I have premiere open and it getting quite warm but this is down to me configuring my model with an i9-10855H and 4k touch screen (basically maxed out). Not to mention my trackpad likes to act super erratic and misclick here and there after a couple hours of use so I am forced to use a mouse.
Very eye opening video! One thing I had in mind, since it has a touch screen... Does it support drawing with the Dell pen? It would be cool if it does... It's gonna be a productivity laptop/gaming machine/drawing tablet all in one package. (which basically replace my MacBook + galaxy tab + and Xbox)
This is definitely helpful but I would love to see how it is after being used for a while. Like a phone, over time and usage, computers tend to slow down especially with high demanding tasks and having various files bogging down the storage and ram. My 2020 Dell XPS 15 Creator Edition top spec'd and video editing every week, I would say it has definitely slowed down. Still works amazing but has slowed down when running through Premier Pro timelines with 4K videos, animations, transitions and all. Definitely looking at this laptop especially since I heard it is slightly lighter than the 2020 model.
Have you concidered mabe you know clearing the ram, cleaning up the system once in a while? Heck just backup your important files and do a factory reset and boom good as new.
@@PokePresto I was just asking how the new Dell was after being used for a while as a daily workhorse, how does it perform over time... Not asking how to clean up my computer.... And I have all my files backed up on an external hard drive. Again,. I was not asking how to clean up my computer. If I needed that, I wouldn't have asked people on CZcams.
I don't think the hardware changes over time it's just that the registry in windows gets full of crap and no amount of maintenance helps imho, so as a rule I just back up what I need to keep and then completely wipe the c drive and do a fresh install once a year just download windows from MS then start all over it's a royal pain downloading all my apps again because it's a whole days work but my PC always works like new plus all the tweaks MS has made over time are already there in the latest version of windows, hope this helps
Thanks for the video. I am going to buy a new computer for my movies edit. I think you helps me. I’ll go for this one. What windows it use . Thank you.
I'm really curious how the XPS 15 compares to the new Asus ProArt Studio Book 16. I have the 16 in hand(typing this on it) and the Dell XPS is ordered. 4k OLED instead of the 3.5K OLED. Getting i9 on the Dell. Asus is about $400 cheaper with better graphics card, etc.
How hot did the laptop get when under load, also how loud were the fans? I have an XPS 15 9570 from 2018 and when editing photos the fans are on and loud! I like the laptop overall but the heat and fan noise may stop me buying another.
Excuse me to ask, is there a laptop specs with core i7 , ram16Gb dual channel / 512ssd ram (upgrade & there is 1 empty slot), nvidia rtx gpu, thunderbolt port, 100% srgb fhd ips. With the cheapest price, what type of brand? Thx
How does it perform scribing thought the timeline? Any dropped frames? Any stutters? Trying to figure out if this RTX 3050 enough or I need RTX 3080. Editing 4K for CZcams + light old gaming. Any help would be appreciated! Basically deciding between this or Gigabyte Aero 17 with 3080 8GB VRam (i9-11)
Hi there I have a Razor Blade 15 advance Rz09-0367 (2021) i7-10875H 16GB RAM 1TB RTX3070 for gaming ... I tried video editing on my GoPro 5k video and it lagging awful. Do you think upgrading the RAM to 32 or 64GB DD4 will make editing smooth or is its CPU too old for 5k video editing? Thanks
Thanks for an excellent review, I'm just looking at the 12th gen version which has the Core™ i7-12700H (24MB Cache, up to 4.7 GHz, 14 cores) also with 32gb ddr5 ram and was wondering if it would be fast enough to edit in premiere, after watching your review it's clear it will be more than fast enough I'm still considering which screen to get though, is the OLED screen the best way to go for editing or the 4k or HD in your opinion. Cheers, Jim
So I have the 2022 version with the 12th gen cpu and I have to say I'm pretty underwhelmed with this laptop. Not very zippy, lags on basic tasks in lightroom. Video editing is a joke, skipped frames, long export times. Did I get a lemon? Its has 16 gb ram but that can't all be to blame for the poor performance I'm getting can it?
Would love to know the result - don’t wanna spend the money on the MacBook m1 but want to edit my fx3 footage without proxies in a laptop (preferably pc)
@@sawyerhartman yeah I guess thats a good reason.it is really portable of a 17 inch laptop though and a lot faster. Also editing should be a lot easier with the extra realestate
When u was rendering the video with after after effects, you said 2:40 when on the screen it shows 2:04. Both times are amazing but I’m curious, which amount of time is the correct amount?
If you have external drives and backups that are thunderbolt 4 they can swap over 40gb a second, if you want to save some money get a thunderbolt 3 they do 10gb still fast. But mostly its nice to have the latest ports on it. Thunder bolt 4 also allows for the laptop to be charged via an USBC monitor and not plugged into an outlet when the lid is shut.

Did you manage to buy it, how it turned out for you?
Interested in a comparison with the new Apple Macs 🤔
Y’all I am so sorry for your loss I will keep y’all in my prayers! I pray that you have peace and comfort in this time of mourning
Super helpful!... Thanks dude! Quick question... What would be your main reason for PC over Mac laptop?
I bought a Dell XPS 15 last year.
Best purchase. No regrets once so ever.
Thats what I like to hear!
What are your thoughts on the 17 ?

@@JimAtHome Yes finally, also you can disable various stupid services that isn't Microsoft too
This does look amazing, but what about the ventilation? Ive heard alot of complaints about how it slows down the laptop making it almost unusable?
What model exacly is it?
I can't seem to find the info on the build-out? Anyone see it? I'm trying to pick the right one. TIA
the initial 32gb RAM presented at the beginning of the video doesn´t match with the picture of the price which is 16gb
Why not go with the new MSI creator 15 just like last year?
He told you the reason at the beginning he is now sponsored by Dell…😂
I'd love to see the benchmark for Lumion on this as well, can you do that?
What is the model number of this XPS 15?
Thanks for the video. I am going to buy a new computer for my movies edit. I think you helps me. I’ll go for this one. What windows it use . Thank you.
Had returned that one due to the HOT keyboard, just not what i wanted especially with no Usb A type port

ProArt got 10,551 on Cinebench multicore. So over 10% above Dell XPS 15.
. K
L
It's much more expensive than xps 15
Wouldn't 3 external hard drives dedicated to each task make the older laptop faster?
Yea but then you have to carry those around, so depends on how you use it. I think most people wanna carry it only
Just need one 😸
There are many different versions which specs did you use for the test ?
How hot did the laptop get when under load, also how loud were the fans? I have an XPS 15 9570 from 2018 and when editing photos the fans are on and loud! I like the laptop overall but the heat and fan noise may stop me buying another.
fans were silent and laptop stayed its normal body weight hahhahaha im used to having to prop up my laptop so the fans get more air lol
@@sawyerhartman Good to know as I'm planning on replacing mine later this year, once the 12th generation Intel laptops arrive.
@@davidstevenson1950 Have you replaced it? If yes, does the 12th gen gets hot as well?
@@BrightRightInfo I did replace it, but with a Mac Studio, i.e. Apple Silicon. It stays silent and cool.
One Off track question..
Whats Ur though on Canon Eos R5c.?
What software do you video edit with?
I'm looking at the gen 12 version and I'm seeing a lot of videos talking about thermal throttling. You didn't get any of that on the gen 11 version?
Can someone write the full specs for this laptop?
Sir have you used hardware encoding and cuda acceleration for export? Please reply
Excuse me to ask, is there a laptop specs with core i7 , ram16Gb dual channel / 512ssd ram (upgrade & there is 1 empty slot), nvidia rtx gpu, thunderbolt port, 100% srgb fhd ips. With the cheapest price, what type of brand? Thx
I'm going to school for video production, is this too much, or do we think it's worth it?

Battery time when video editing ?

I have the same question as you regarding the screen, did you get any answer? Or did you do any testing?
get the oled, it looks amazing and is more color accurate
Which one was your previous device?? I'm considering this one or a MacBook pro!
macbook pro will be far better
they ALWAYS get spinning wheel of death for me!
Love the guy but thats clearly an ad,
Macs are much better at editing
@@SerjLimitless based on what metrics? Editing what? Which Mac? You sound like you're stuck in 2008

Hi good one I think you should try eos R5 videos it is nightmare to work with 😉
Ripped through them no problem!
@@sawyerhartman wow all the resolutions and frame rates ?
What exact laptop is he using?
How does it handle a7siii 4k 120fps xavc hs 10bit 422 footages?? btw, great video.. 👌👌
Not sure actually do you have some footage you can drop box me to try??
Would love to know the result - don’t wanna spend the money on the MacBook m1 but want to edit my fx3 footage without proxies in a laptop (preferably pc)
Hi, which model number exactly it is ? Thanks.
9510
Does after effects work on it?
Cinebench 12308 M1 Max 🥵
how much it cost you tho??
@@sawyerhartman $4500 🥺 hahahaha
I need those r5 8k
you should have tested the xps17 with the rtx 3060 and 4k screen
Thats a powerhouse! But.... I wanted extreme portability!
@@sawyerhartman yeah I guess thats a good reason.it is really portable of a 17 inch laptop though and a lot faster. Also editing should be a lot easier with the extra realestate
You forgot the cartwheel.
Must stretch
When u was rendering the video with after after effects, you said 2:40 when on the screen it shows 2:04. Both times are amazing but I’m curious, which amount of time is the correct amount?
Is a thunderbolt needed at all for video editing?
Also, what about the 17” for those wanting a slightly larger screen?
Thank you.
If you have external drives and backups that are thunderbolt 4 they can swap over 40gb a second, if you want to save some money get a thunderbolt 3 they do 10gb still fast. But mostly its nice to have the latest ports on it. Thunder bolt 4 also allows for the laptop to be charged via an USBC monitor and not plugged into an outlet when the lid is shut.
yeah but the price is 2k49 dollar which i cannot afford so good luck to me !
How can I only find this laptop for way more than 2k euros two years later when it was apparently sub 2k dollars when the video came out 😂
That thing is insane! Now to convince my wife…….
hahhaha I know you got that sales pitch down by now!
Can I ask 1 laptop even second hand coz I can’t afford for the online class of my kids. If you have extra one? Thank you
Nooo from 2080 rtx 10875h vs what u got naaaa
Hi bro
Hey Santhosh!
I don't believe this...... How..
Idk man.... I was shocked too! Not one crash in 3 days of intense testing! It was a quasi-religious experience lol
So what was your previous laptop?...lol
Booo h.264 we need h.265
XPS laptops with only USB-C outputs, inluding power and video output are garbage, I will never buy them again.
your reviews are bogus if dell and NVDA are giving you money. sorry
