I have one for work, albeit running Windows. My gripes are:
* Nonsensical keyboard layout that I personally can't get used to. Perhaps this is a unique issue with the Belgian azerty layout.
* Trackpad is way too big for my tastes
* Touch screen adds little value and I hate the fact it's glossy. It also attracts dust like crazy.
* Fans are ridiculously loud even when just running an IDE. I can just about tell the IDE is loaded when it sounds like actual lift-off
* Battery life sucks compared to my ThinkPad
* Dell has some very unique issues with DPI scaling. Perhaps this is a Windows-only thing
To summarise: I would say it's overpriced garbage. Perhaps that assessment changes if you like the aesthetics.
- happymellon 5y agoI find the keyboard fine, with UK ISO. But the touchscreen is awful. I haven't yet put Linux on this one but under Windows even though I disabled it in the BIOS the touchscreen randomly enabled itself so if I touch the corner to close the lid I actually close whatever app I'm in. Frustrating and an awful design. 4k is completely wasted and is broken in about half the stuff I use so I ended up changing the resolution to 1440p rather than using Windows scaling.
