No, same with Win10 machines.
Bought an XPS13 maxed out from Dell. Website deceivably back then said 2 days shipping, but I didn't realize it meant 2 days to deliver it to the carrier and the 3 weeks to Germany from China. Website made it look like it was in Europe when I ordered. BIOS gives smoke detection loudness (!) level alarms at night when some hardware part fails and laptop reboots.
Beside that, hardware is crappy, get's too hot, also hardware gives load pitching and buzzing noises when under load. Keyboard has problems too. I can't run Linux b/c I've stupidly ordered NVMe.
Would never again buy Dell, I'm back with Apple for my next laptop.
- plq 9y agoFWIW, my Lenovo T460s also has NVMe and it works just fine via /dev/nvme*. Eg. my boot partition is /dev/nvme0n1p1
- oliwarner 9y agoYeah I'm using nvme on a few machines. No issue.
- craftkiller 9y agoHow is NVMe preventing you from running Linux? Linux has had NVMe support since 2012 (3.3). I use NVMe on a Dell XPS 13 9350 Developer Edition as my daily driver with no issue.
- em3rgent0rdr 9y agoWell Dell clearly doesn't have their shipping logistics down. I'm sure if you bought a Dell via Amazon Prime, it would arrive next day.
