I bought a Dell XPS 15 9570 over a month ago. I've been a Mac user since 2006, and I still have one foot in the Mac ecosystem since I use a Mac Pro daily. Anyway, I found my experience with Windows 10 on my XPS to be much better than my first experience with Windows 10, which was on a refurbished ThinkPad T430 with a slow hard disk (that was painful). I still believe that overall macOS is more consistent and more polished than Windows 10, but Windows 10 is not a bad OS, and I find myself very productive with the Windows Subsystem for Linux layer. In my opinion Windows 10 is at par with the Linux desktops I've used in recent years, such as Cinnamon and KDE Plasma. By comparison, I feel that macOS has not changed very much in terms of compelling features since Snow Leopard. With the exception of iCloud and updated web browsers, I think I could still remain productive in Snow Leopard even today.
The things I miss the most about macOS on my Dell XPS 15 9570 are certain Mac-exclusive software products such as Apple Keynote, OmniOutliner, and OmniGraffle. But I still have my Mac Pro and my iPad for these apps.
