Dell XPS 15 (9500) Review
In late September 2020, we packed up my sister’s SUV with my daughter’s belongings and drove it to Charlotte, North Carolina so she could belatedly start her first year of college. The pandemic has changed lots of things,
ruined things, but I’m happy she’s been able to have some semblance of a normal college experience. And I know that it will only improve over time.
Why mention this in a laptop review? Well, it was my only trip during the pandemic, my only trip of the past 12 months, and it was thus my only chance all year to get some semi-normal experience using tech products out in the world; as you may recall—it seems like a lifetime ago now—I normally travel quite a bit. Anyway, on that one pandemic trip of 2020, I brought along two review laptops, the HP Envy 15 and the Dell XPS 15. I worked with both machines during the trip, and my wife and I used both to watch videos at night.
