Dell2021 Newest XPS 17 Laptop 9710, 17" UHD+ Touch Display, Intel i7-11800H, GeForce RTX 3050, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, IR Camera, Backlit Keyboard, Fingerprint Reader, Wi-Fi 6, Thunderbolt, Win 10 Pro

I'm not an average consumer, but a technical one who demands the best Windows laptop available, comparable to a desktop workstation and "without breaking the bank". This laptop perfectly met my needs. I bought it "used like new", but works like a charm. Super fast for serious software development, data processing (32GB helps a lot with memory-based data models), video/photo editing, and gaming. Lightweight compared to my previous 17-inch laptop, and the battery lasts for a fair amount of time. Having Windows to authenticate using just your finger is awesome (although I still need to educate my fingers to not hit the fingerprint/power button when my intention is hitting Delete). I also need to get used to the fact I don't have a numeric keyboard anymore like the one in my previous 17" machine (still need to find a way to quickly get a weird ASCII character without using another keyboard). The metallic finish of the XPS series is really nice and looks very professional. The screen is very clear, and the speaker volume is quite good for a laptop. First, I was disappointed due to the fact I was getting black and white bars on the screen after closing the lid and opening it again (by next morning, or so). This was ocurring at least twice per week. I finally searched over the Internet and found a workaround as simple as deleting the video driver and letting the system install a new one by itself. This action downgraded the driver I believe, but completely solved the issue. Windows 11 works really well after performing an in-place upgrade during the initial boot. Having the PRO version of the OS is another plus. This machine didn't come with a dock or hub, as advertised (knew it might not come with it due to the used condition), and since *****ALL*****, I repeat, ****ALL**** my devices have just the classic/regular USB plug, having just newer USB-C ports is REALLY inconvenient. I work on at least 3 laptops all over the day, so I never use the touchpad mouse (to avoid discomfort and pain in my fingers or wrist). Have you seen a USB-C mouse or a flash drive around yet? Moreover, why purchasing others if the older are still very good? Then I solved the problem with a cheap $20 hub. USB OTG adapters for smartphones work very well either in case of emergency, like in my case. I might end up purchasing a better hub to have wired networking (due to speed), but let me say I haven't had the need so far as the wifi chip is working really fast in conjunction with my newest router....... in summary, this laptop worth every penny (and of course I got a big discount).

It is goog purchase. Love the laptop, be careful the price is a bit high and you could buy another laptop and upgrade it . I went with this laptop because I love the band and I am use to it

The seller is trustworthy. The renewed Dell 17" laptop arrived in pristine condition, looking brand new.I just finished setting up (free upgrade to Windows 11, downloaded virus protection, etc.) No problems.Everything is working as expected. Although the laptop did heat up from installing Windows 11, it's cooling down now.I need to explore and experience this new computer, of course, but I think I'm going to be a very happy camper!The seller is trustworthy.

Must tell you that the audio is crap. Surely the speakers are not original Dell. But who knows? It's a used, reconditioned laptop. I installed an audio app. It helped some, but the audio is still very poor.I listen to dialogue, in movies and videos. Generally, audio speaker manufacturers use too much muffling & reverberation, in order to make music sound better, to fill the data gaps--which apparently get wider & wider every year. The quality decline is very noticable when you're just listening to someone talk. My 13" HP Chromebook has a much clearer, better sound. The Toshiba Chromebook before that, was even better. Years ago, the original Amazon Fire tablet had tremendous sound.When I observe this downward trend in audio quality. It makes me afraid to buy speakers, as a solution. (How crappy will THEY be?) Besides, I don't want to lug speakers around the house with a portable laptop.This Dell XPS laptop is ok for productivity work. It is unpleasant for entertainment or to catch up on the news--I feel actual angry every time I hear muffled, garbled dialogue coming from "under water."And now, I barely use this expensive Dell XPS laptop for research and writing--I haven't used it in 6 weeks! The 13" Chromebook, which has better audio, is always on the kitchen table where I both work and "play" online.Beyond this specific computer...There is also worsening audio with my public library's audiobook delivery system, and Netflix DVDs.So, maybe, are my ears going bad? I don't think that's the problem, because there are points when I can compare two devices or apps. For instance, right now. The HP Chromebook clearly beats the Dell XPS in audio quality. (Who would have thought? All the reviews praise the Dell XPS laptop for excellent audio.)The decline is not in my ears. The decline is in the American standard of living. (BTW, all these audio manufacturers and media providers probably continue to sell the good-quality models to Europe and the rest of the world.)
