Dell XPS 15 – groundbreaking design


Johannesburg, 14 Oct 2020

Lauded by technology reviewers across the globe, the new Dell XPS 15 (9500) features an exciting redesign that sets the benchmark for 15-inch notebooks.

Available to the channel from official distributor Drive Control Corporation (DCC), the Dell XPS 15 features top camera placement and a new four-sided InfinityEdge display with a 5% larger 16:10 screen and 92.9% screen to body ratio.

The Dell XPS 15 comes in CNC machined aluminium platinum silver with a black carbon fibre palm rest and is packed with 10th Gen Intel Core processors (up to i7 processors with 8 cores and 16 threads), delivering desktop calibre power and creativity. The processors enable users to capture, edit and share creations at a blistering rate.

The notebook features Dell’s Eyesafe display technology that reduces harmful blue light and maintains vivid colour. It intelligently manages light energy at the source, selectively reducing harmful blue light and dispersing it across the light spectrum.

The Dell XPS 15 uses adaptive performance based on the latest Intel Dynamic Tuning Technology. With this new predictive and adaptive engine, the notebook is actively changing the power of its CPU to optimise specific workloads.

For optimised performance, the notebook’s new advanced thermal redesign includes dual fans separated to spread heat over a larger area. It also has dual heat pipes and hidden exhaust venting through the hinge.

“The Dell XPS 15 provides a truly immersive experience, enabling users to harness this powerful notebook to its full potential. It’s a fantastic redesign that undoubtedly sets the trend,” says Heinrich Pretorius, Dell consumer product specialist at DCC.

The notebook is serious about sound; with quad speaker design, the Dell XPS 15 is the first laptop to incorporate Waves Nx 3D Audio for Speakers tuned by multi-Grammy Award winning producer, Jack Joseph Puig.

The Dell XPS 15 is packed with advanced features such as:

  • GeForce GTX 1650 Ti graphics performance;
  • 100% Adobe RGB and 94% DCI-P3 colour gamut. The optional UHD+ display delivers saturated colours while a 1650:1 contrast ratio can experience super bright and darkest dark;
  • Dolby Vision content, which provides highlights up to 40 times brighter, and blacks that are up to 10 times darker. Plus, the VESA certified DisplayHDR 400 display on the optional 4K+ panel delivers over 16 million colours;
  • USB 3.1 and Thunderbolt 3 ports that are ideal for the full set-up – speakers, mixing boards, monitors and other essentials, whether at home or on stage; and
  • Dell Mobile Connect.
