Dell XPS 15 and Dell XPS 17 are being retired — both are discounted today

Ahead of CES 2024, Dell revealed that it will retire the Dell XPS 15 and Dell XPS 17, and that it will replace the popular laptops with the Dell XPS 14 and Dell XPS 16. Following this announcement, Dell slashed the prices of top-tier configurations of the outgoing laptops, with the Dell XPS 15 down to $2,299 from $2,799 for $500 in savings, and the Dell XPS 17 down to $3,049 from $3,749 for $700 in savings. You’re going to have to hurry if you want to buy the last models of either device in these laptop deals though, as we’re not sure how much stock is left before they’re all gone.

The Dell XPS 15 will be missed, as it’s currently our top choice among the best 15-inch laptops, for several reasons that include its spectacular 15.6-inch OLED touchscreen with 3.5K resolution and rock-solid construction with an attractive design. This particular model comes with the 13th-generation Intel Core i9 processor, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card, and 32GB of RAM, for top-tier performance that can handle any task for work or school. It ships with Windows 11 Home pre-installed in a 1TB SSD, which will give you enough space for all of your apps and files. The Dell XPS 15 also comes with an excellent keyboard and touchpad, which will help boost your productivity.

Likewise, the Dell XPS 17 ranks first in our roundup of the best 17-inch laptops, with solid productivity and gaming performance that’s in full force with this configuration that features the 13th-generation Intel Core i9 processor, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card, and 32GB of RAM. The laptop also comes with Windows 11 Home pre-installed in its 1TB SSD. The Dell XPS 17’s excellent build quality is elevated by its 17-inch Ultra HD+ touchscreen with accurate colors and deep contrast, and using it is comfortable because it comes with a great keyboard and touchpad. Its size makes it the perfect companion for working on tasks and projects for work or school as you’ll see all the details, and while it’s larger than most other laptops, it will still be easy to carry because it’s thickness is only 0.77 of an inch.

Start today: Save with Dell and shape a more sustainable future for us all
Dell Sustainable Future for Earth Day featured image

Earth Day may be over, but sustainability and eco-initiatives cannot be relegated to a single day, week, or month. To make any impact in today's hyperconnected and tech-centric world, they must be sustained long-term via thoughtful, engaging actions. For example, e-waste or electronic waste from old, dysfunctional, or discarded electronics is a considerable concern. Every year, millions of electronic devices or products are discarded and thrown away in landfills, many of which have hazardous or harmful materials inside that can poison the ground soil, water sources, and nearby communities. It's essential to not only intelligently dispose of these old devices but also find new ways to reuse and repurpose them so that the materials don't go to waste, let alone harm local communities.

We can all contribute to creating a more responsible, sustainable future by making the right choices, and Dell is making that possible. Thanks to advanced technology offers on PCs and accessories that are meant to help reduce e-waste. Dell has adopted the mantra “repurpose, reuse, and rethink” for a good reason. Many featured products are purposefully built with recycled plastics, shipped in renewable packaging and materials, and ultimately meant to help cut down on society's collective wastefulness so you can save big and feel good about it all.
