Why you should buy the Dell XPS 17

This particular Dell XPS 17 has so much great hardware that it’s perfect for content creation, working away, or even gaming. It has a 13th-generation Intel Core i9-13900H processor along with a near ridiculous 64GB of memory. While many machines have 16GB and we’re impressed when we see 32GB, this one doubles our hopes and ensures it will fly with whatever your plans may be. It also has 1TB of SSD storage space. Ensuring this is a high-end machine with few limitations, there’s also an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card with 12GB of dedicated VRAM so there’s no game you can’t play on it. That won’t change for a long time as this is a laptop built to last.

The only thing that stops the Dell XPS 17 from being one of the best gaming laptops is that its screen only has a standard 60Hz refresh rate which isn’t ideal for fast-moving games. It is a great screen though as it’s a 17-inch UHD+ one with 3840 x 2400 resolution and 500 nits of brightness. It’s also a touchscreen if you happen to want to be more tactile as you work.

Power is everything here but the Dell XPS 17 knows how to harness it as it has the Dell performance app which means you can tweak things on the fly, such as switching to a quiet mode or going all in with an ultra-performance mode. An advanced thermal design means the laptop stays cool and there are improved skin temperatures when you place it on your lap. Things like these add up to remind you why Dell is one of the best laptop brands around.

The Dell XPS 17 also somehow manages to be smaller than most as Dell has squeezed its 17-inch screen into a 15-inch form factor. That makes it easier to carry around than some of the best laptops while still packing a punch where it counts.

A supremely powerful and attractive laptop, the Dell XPS 17 usually costs $4,049. Right now though, you can buy it from Dell and save $1,100, dropping the price to $2,949. This is a fantastic deal for a high-end laptop that is built to last. Check it out for yourself by clicking the button below.

Amazon unveils Echo Show 16 with Fire TV, Alexa+ and an anti-glare display
A bigger screen, smarter Alexa, and a wallet-sized dilemma.

Smart displays have promised to run my entire house for years. However, I mostly end up using them as fancy kitchen timers or home security monitors. Amazon’s newest one wants to change my mind, and it comes with a serious price tag.

The company just unveiled the Echo Show 16. It is a 16-inch smart display that isn’t just a kitchen timer but a small TV, thanks to built-in Fire TV. The baseline version costs $499.99, and the anti-glare version costs $569.99. Pre-orders get $100 off; the device ships late this year.

M6 iMac vs. M4 iMac: Skipping the M5 made a bigger difference than I expected
Same pretty aluminum shell. Much stronger M6 heart.

After five years with Apple silicon, from the original M1 MacBook Air to the M5 MacBook Air released earlier this year, I've watched these chips mature not just on the spec sheet, but in real-world workflows and overall efficiency.

The new M6 chip might sound like a routine generational upgrade, but it's the company's first chip built on a 2nm manufacturing process, which brings meaningful improvements over previous Apple chips.
