I was shopping for a dev laptop about a year or two ago, and it was more like double the price rather than just a few hundred dollars more.
- DangitBobby 7y agoDefinitely. A new MacBook pro with 16GB RAM, a decently speedy 512 GB SSD, the basic display, dedicated graphics, and an 2.3 GHz 8 core i9 costs $2.8K [0]. An XPS 15 with 32GB RAM, a decently speedy 1TB SSD, the basic display, dedicated graphics, and a 5.0 GHz 8 core i9 costs like $2.3K [1]. I couldn't customize the XPS enough to do a direct comparison. But the XPS 15 with the almost the same specs as the MacBook other than having an i7 was about 1.6K. • 0 https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro/15-inch https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro/15-inch • 1 https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-laptops/new-xps-15-laptop/spd/xps-15-7590-laptop/xnber5cr649ps?configurationid=fc22b4b5-434e-4c5d-ae27-eac18e9c1a79 https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-laptops/new-xps-15-lapt...
