Thanks for the recommendation, I've been seriously considering one of these for my XPS. As a side note I am deeply in love with my XPS 9310 (Tigerlake) on Kubuntu (kernel 4.11). Battery life is INSANE, instant wake and sleep, keeps cool, but still has thermal overhead/power (thanks to the fans) to do large kernel compiles or other serious hard work. Also the screen (I got the non-4K model) is very pretty, sometimes I just look at it and go 'wow, that looks good'. Excuse me if I gush too much.

The recent XPS lineup has been really great especially with the mainline kernel. I have a 15" so the thermal issues were a bit of a challenge at first. I ended up undervolting the CPU and now I get decent battery life (~4 hours) and no thermal issues. As for the dock- it has absolutely been worth every penny.
