XPS 15 9530

Dell XPS completely went to shit.

Yeah XPS never again. I have got one in 2017 XPS 15 battery went bust 3 years later with Dell stopped producing the battery so the only replacement was with Chinese cheap knock offs. Buy a nice Thinkpad, that will last, battery takes 30 minutes to change and plenty of spare parts around.

I have an M1 air. And an M5 iPad Pro. Almost the same as you. I don’t see a reason to upgrade the M1 air just yet. Apple Silicon is hard to beat. Cuz on my battle station I run a Dell XPS with an i7, a Chromebook with a Ryzen 3 7000 and the M1 Air. I do similar things with all of them. And different

It is not so much an issue now, but there was a time when driver compatibility was an issue on Linux. Nah m8, it’s still pretty bad.

I have a 2021 MacBook Pro M1 Pro that I edit most of my projects on and it rips compared to my 2022 Dell XPS that I customized for video editing. In my experience, Macs truly are better than Windows PCs for video purposes. If you're serious about this pathway, I'd get yourself a used MacBook Pro wit

I feel this so hard. Just started as new head of IT at an SMB, and am replacing our existing mixed fleet of HP and Dell with ThinkPads. Had a new P16s4 AMD arrive with artefacting out of the box, Lenovo cross-shipped me a new one within a week of my request. Send the old one back, no dramas. Had an

Which generation did you have? Am pretty sure the XPS 9530 is soldered for the wireless card; I don't see it on the list of removable parts ( https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/xps-15-9530-laptop/xps-15-9530-service-manual/removing-and-installing-components?guid=guid-7fbb11d7-9820-47bb-afaa-
