I installed Linux Mint 19 on my Dell XPS13 when it arrived (it came with Windows 10) and it's not missed a beat: 100% hardware compatibility. I did update the BIOS before installing Linux though. It's the best laptop I've owned. I don't use the trackpad often, I like my mouse, but when I do it always surprises me how good it is. I have the companion dock on my desk, which also worked out of the box with Mint 19 despite some forum comment that it wasn't fully compatible. I can unplug the laptop from the dock (which has a large monitor, USB audio, ethernet) and keep working; plug it back in and everything reconnects seamlessly.
