I bought a XPS 13 in developer edition, which came with a preloaded Ubuntu. I still have that laptop but it's only used for emails mostly. Machine has a nice Intel CPU, 4K display (touch capable, which works fine under Linux too). The only issue I had was it came with a Ubuntu 18.04 and some stuff like launching Software would crash. It worked, but some stuff would crash from time to time. All those issues got fixed when I moved to 20.04 (which came out a month after I got the laptop) and machine has been working very nicely since. The only issue is RAM is soldered and it only has 16 Gb of Ram. For my current laptop, I went for Lenovo for one main reason : price... All the Dell configurations were 2k or over. The Lenovo cost me 1100 euro. For that price I got the 16 inches model, 64 Gb of soldered LDDR5 Ram (much faster than standard replacable DDR), 1 Tb Samsung EVO 980 SSD, a 7840U CPU and it came preloaded with Fedora 39... Seeing the prices Dell is asking, there is no way they can compete with Lenovo on price for the hardware you get. And when you go check the Lenovo forums and report issues on Linux, you have someone there (Mark) that pushes those to the developers in charge of the firmware, or their Linux team. On the Dell forum, unless another user helps you, you're fsck because you cannot get in touch with ANYONE from the Dell Linux or their UEIF firmware devs.. There is a sharp and huge difference between what you see on the Dell/Linux forums and Lenovo/Linux forums.. Dell is clearly in a pit with their heads in their collective asses on Linux support. For this reason alone, I will never buy a Dell again. This even comes before the price itself. Lenovo's support of Linux on their laptops is day and night compared to what Dell is doing.
