  • Les finitions XPS, toujours aussi réussies,  Grosse puissance de feu...
  • mais un prix trop élevé,  L'écran a du plomb dans l'aile
  • Le Dell XPS 15 conserve-t-il sa très bonne note 4 étoiles ? Difficile de nous décider. D'une part, la connectique est remise au goût du jour et la puissance de la configuration est revue à la hausse surtout en termes graphiques. Le boîtier, lui, conserve...

  • Dell transpose l'écran Infinity Edge (écran quasi bord à bord avec cadre très fin) sur son XPS 15 pouces. Un PC portable qui vient chasser sur les territoires du MacBook Pro...

  • Écran splendide, Finition impeccable, Design premium, Configuration puissante et polyvalente
  • Revêtement salissant autour du clavier, Manque de basses sur les haut-parleurs
  • Cette nouvelle version du Dell XPS 15 est une vraie réussite, et c'est sans doute l'un des meilleurs PC portables au format 15 pouces que vous pourrez trouver sur le marché. Son design est très travaillé son écran (presque) sans bords est impressionnant...

  • Display entusiasmante, Rapidissimo nel multitasking, Elegantissimo e raffinato
  • Gestione dei colori da rivedere, Manca un vero top di gamma lato hardware

  • Per tirare le somme devo tornare alle considerazioni iniziali. XPS 13 resta un consiglio più popolare, ma Dell XPS 15 9550 svecchia i 15 pollici e obbliga tutti gli altri ad aggiornarsi. È la prima macchina da lavoro intenso che si fa usare come un ul...
