New Dell XPS 15 – The Powerhouse Machine without the bulk

Dell’s highly anticipated XPS 15 (9560) laptop is now available from official distributor Drive Control Corporation (DCC). The XPS 15 is packed with the newest Intel Kaby Lake 7th generation processors up to i7 Quad Core and up to 32GB memory which easily powers through intensive tasks.

Regarded as one of the world’s most popular 15-inch laptops, the XPS 15’s form factor is actually closer to 14 inches thanks to Dell’s virtually borderless InfinityEdge display which enables 15.6 inches to be squeezed into a smaller chassis. The XPS 15 is 11-17mm thin and weighs only 1.81kg depending on the laptop option.

The laptop incorporates NVIDIA’s newest Pascal architecture with GeForceGTX 1050 graphics (4GB of GDDR5 memory) and includes ample storage of up to 1TB in solid state drive format.

Furthermore, the Dell XPS 15 is available in UltraSharp 4K Ultra HD from DCC which translates into a display of eight million pixels at 282 PPI (pixels per inch) – this is six million more pixels than FHD (fully high-definition) display.
