Dell XPS 15 7590 review — Riley Young/Digital Trends

Black Friday is officially over and Cyber Monday is just days away, and there are already tons of great Cyber Monday deals out there, including for the Dell XPS 15. This laptop, which usually starts at $1,899, is still down to just $1,399. That’s $500 off! Plus, when you buy through Dell you’ll get the shipping absolutely free, so no tricks on this deal, just a very modern laptop at a steep discount. This particular deal was a Black Friday deal that is still around even after that sale has ended. So there’s no guarantee it’ll stick around for much longer. In fact, over 40% of these discounted laptops have already been claimed, so you’ll need to hurry if you want to snag one for yourself.

Why you should buy the Dell XPS 15

The Dell XPS 15 is ranked among the best 15-inch laptops in the world right now, and it isn’t hard to see why. It’s got a thin body that is easy to tuck into backpacks, large purses, and briefcases. But, within the thin shell is great power. With a 12th-gen Intel Core i7 processor with 16 GB of RAM, this isn’t just a computer to buy because you want something to lug around with you. In fact, in Dell’s own words, the Dell XPS 15 is a computer “created for creators” backed by Nvidia and Studio Drivers designed to boost Adobe and Autodesk performance.

There’s a lot more that brings the Dell XPS 15 into the future than just some RAM and drivers, though. For one, look at the Wi-Fi 6-enabled wireless, named “Killer” by Intel. If you’re fortunate enough to already have a Wi-Fi 6 router, you’ll know the extreme power of this next-gen tech, but even if you don’t you’re getting a futureproof laptop that will serve your internet needs for years to come. When we compared the Dell XPS 15 vs. Apple’s MacBook Pro 16, we found that the Dell XPS 15’s double-anodized chrome body was stronger and more difficult to scratch. In other words, this is a laptop that should age better than you would otherwise expect.

To get your own Dell XPS 15, be sure to buy now while this deal is still in effect. This is a $1,899 laptop brought all the way down to $1,399. That’s $500 off and a fantastic deal.

Dell XPS 13 and XPS 15 prices slashed for Memorial Day — from $599

If you're looking at Dell Memorial Day deals for a new laptop, here are a couple of offers that you should consider -- the Dell XPS 13 with a $200 discount that slashes its price to $599 from $799, and the Dell XPS 15 at $300 off, bringing its price down to $1,199 from $1,499. These are previous-generation models following the Dell XPS reset, and in the case of the Dell XPS 15, it's the last iteration of the laptop as it's been replaced by the Dell XPS 14. However, both of them are still worthwhile purchases, especially with the savings that you can pocket if you buy them for the holiday. You need to be quick though, as their prices may go back to normal at any time.
Dell XPS 13 -- $599, was $799

The previous-generation Dell XPS 13 remains in our list of the best laptops as the best budget laptop, as it's aggressively priced for a premium laptop with such a striking design. The 13.4-inch Full HD+ screen is surrounded by extremely narrow bezels, and it's got enough performance for the daily activities required by work or school with its 12th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, Intel Iris Xe Graphics, and 8GB of RAM. The laptop runs on Windows 11 Home out of the box, with the operating system pre-loaded in its 256GB SSD, and it has a pair of Thunderbolt 4 ports for charging and connectivity with your accessories.

Dell Memorial Day Sale: Save $400 on the new XPS 14

For a long time, the Dell XPS 13 constituted Dell's small laptop response to the MacBook Air 13, but there's a new kid in town. Dell recently released the Dell XPS 14, a nice little bump in size, and very likely trying to aim for the MacBook Pro 14 crowd of folks who want a small laptop but not something so small it will be hard to use professionally. Luckily, you can get a pretty substantial discount on the XPS 14 directly from Dell as part of the early Memorial Day sale, with a price tag of $1,749 rather than the usual $2,259 it goes for. That's a whopping $510 discount, so if you want a powerful little laptop, this is the perfect opportunity to grab one.

Why you should buy the Dell XPS 14
This little Dell XPS 14 comes with a 14.5-inch screen running an FHD+ resolution and a peak brightness of 500 nits, making it the perfect companion for keeping mobile and taking it with you wherever you go. That's certainly helped by the 3.7-pound weight and the 0.71-inch thickness that makes it both lightweight and thin enough to fit in a bag or backpack, and it's well-built enough that you shouldn't have to worry about carrying it around. It's worth mentioning that you can upgrade the screen to a gorgeous 3.2K OLED screen that's also touche-enabled for an extra $300, although it does bump up the weight a bit to 3.8 pounds.

Save $450 on this Dell XPS desktop PC with an RTX 4060 Ti

While Dell makes some of the best laptops on the market, especially under the Alienware brand, it also has some of the best desktops as well. Interestingly, while the XPS lineup of laptops is known as being Dell's answer to the MacBook, Dell also has XPS desktops that you can grab, and they're actually pretty good. In fact, this Dell XPS desktop configuration is being discounted directly by Dell, bringing the price down to $1,100 from its usual $1,550, which is a very substantial $450 discount.

Why you should buy the Dell XPS Desktop
While the Dell XPS Desktop doesn't quite look like a gaming PC, it does come with an RTX 4060 Ti, which, admittedly, is an entry-level gaming GPU, and that's a good option for 1080p gaming. It will be able to hit around 100 frames at that resolution, although there may be some slight compromises with graphical settings here and there. Even so, that's still an excellent inclusion for the price you're getting, and if you already have a 1080p monitor, you won't have to change, which is probably the biggest positive.
