Best Dell XPS deals: Save on Dell XPS 13, Dell XPS 15 and Dell XPS 17

Noah McGraw

The Dell XPS is one of our favorite laptop lines out there. XPS laptops come in tons of different options, from smaller, budget laptops that are great for students and casual users, to 17-inch behemoths that pack a ton of power. We’ve pulled out our favorite Dell XPS laptop deals below, organizing them by XPS 13, XPS 15 and XPS 17.

While the most obvious difference between models is the size of the screen, there are a few other trends you can see as the models get bigger. More room in the chassis means more room for components, so the XPS17 models tend to have more RAM and better graphics cards and CPUs than the smaller laptops. Dell also assumes that the larger laptops will be used by professionals, so the components can keep up with a higher level of processing power demands.

Below are the best deals on the Dell XPS laptop. Make sure to compare these prices against the best Dell laptop deals, as you might prefer something like an Inspiron or a gaming laptop like the G15. Then compare these to the best laptop deals in general. All of these deals come from Dell, so check out more options among Best Buy laptop deals and Walmart deals.

The XPS 15 is a step up in size and power. You’ll get a much bigger screen than on the XPS 13, and with a bigger chassis comes more demanding components. We see Dell start pulling from Nvidia’s line of RTX GPUs, and we see a bunch more RAM getting crammed in there.

Best Microsoft Office deals: Get Word, PowerPoint, and Excel for free
Students using Microsoft Office software on their laptops outside.

Microsoft Office (and Microsoft 365) are still the standards for many businesses, schools, and colleges around the world. While the browser-based, and free, Google Docs and Google Sheets are starting to dig into the market share of these products, in the battle of Microsoft vs Google, Microsoft still holds the gold standard. While there is a Microsoft Word free trial, for most of the goodies we need to pay. And, that need for payment can be quite a drain, as often this is software we need to do work, complete assignments, or submit important documents. As a result, finding Microsoft Office and Microsoft 365 deals is critical, even though it can be a challenging task. Here's where to get a leg up on Microsoft and get Office on the cheap.
Best Microsoft Office deals
Microsoft Office is a pay once, receive once service. You don't have to pay recurring monthly fees to use it, but the software also never updates. For what it's worth, the Microsoft Office packages are labelled "2021", so they're all fairly recent but also ripe for a good deal. With the exception of AI integrations, not much has really changed in the past couple of years when it comes to your basic document creation and these programs should continue to be effective for years to come. Depending on what package you get, you'll get access to different apps, based on the needs of the target audience. For example, Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021 keeps it lean and cool and with Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint being the only apps included.

Here are our favorite deals for the classic Microsoft Office experience:

Best 17-inch laptop deals: Big savings on big screens
An HP Omen 17 laptop on a desk.

While many folks tend to focus on smaller and more portable laptops, others prefer something with a bigger screen. While they tend to be harder to find bags for, bigger screens give you more screen real estate to work with, and if you have eyesight issues, having a bigger screen can also work. Unfortunately, there aren't as many 17-inch screens out there as we would like, but we've still found a nice selection that you can pick from, with everything from the budget-friendly to the high-end.
Our Favorite 17-inch Laptop Deal

While there aren't a lot of budget-oriented 17-inch laptop deals, this one on HP's 17z is a solid choice if you want a Windows laptop that stays under $300. It comes with an AMD Athlon Gold 7220U, which is perfect for simple day-to-day tasks and productivity work, and the 8GB of RAM will give you a bit of leeway when it comes to apps and tabs. Storage is minimal, though, at only 128GB, so you might want to grab one of these external hard drive deals to help. As for the screen, it runs a 1600 x 900, but you can upgrade that to 1920 x 1080 for an extra $40, which is what we'd do if we only made one upgrade here. That said, if you can swing it, then upgrading to the AMD Ryzen 3 7320U for $80 is also another good upgrade that will give you a better quality of life.
