Unfortunately I experienced much the same sort of symptoms with my 15” XPS as well, culminating in unbearable coil whine and a display that just never worked properly, so it was returned and I promptly got myself a MacBook. Prior to this, I ran thinkpads for years without issue, so next time I’m in the market for a linux/windows box I think I’ll give them another go... The support staff at dell just seemed so incredibly uninterested in helping me after I bought my machine, and getting a refund organised was just painful.
