This is a great machine with lots of potential. The version I purchased was the 9560, with HD panel, smaller battery with the option to expand to another hard drive. The XPS series are very easy to modify, and quickly I was able to upgrade the wifi adapter to a better one, increase the RAM to 32GB, and increase the battery size to the larger one by removing the HDD expansion bracket, as my work is stored in the cloud I favoured the better wifi card, battery and RAM availability over mass storage. For me, the HD screen is much better than the glossy 4k screen for my photo editing. As I travel and photograph, I may be editing either on the move, or away from home, sometimes in sunny locations. A glossy 4k screen will be impossible to use in these conditions, whereas the matte screen fares much better in this light. Side by side you can see the difference between the screens, but for photo editing I believe if the HD screen is calibrated correctly, you can get just as good results, whilst maintining a much better battery life. The graphics card in this laptop is great, it processes all my images very quickly, hardly any lag, and exports my photos in a good amount of time. I sometimes use my desktop which is custom built and can process hundreds of images in a matter of minutes, this laptop isnt that far off. I moved from a macbook pro to this laptop, as I didnt enjoy the experience of the macbook, and little things like the keyboard were very unpleasent for long typing sessions, not great when you are managing emails, a website and socials on the move...For travelling, the laptop isnt the lightest, but it isnt the heaviest by a long shot. Packed in my bag, along with its charger, my camera, 2 lenses, flashes, tripod, this doesnt add much to my already stocked up pack. I enjoy travelling with my Dell as I can rely on it, battery life is amazing with the large battery, and it effortlessly does whatever I ask of it.Read full review
