New laptop: advice welcome!

[James Pacey]

Hi all,

I have a 2016 model MacBook Pro. The time has finally come to change it - and I won't go back to Apple if you paid me!

I'm looking for recommendations for a new Windows laptop please. It is ˀused pretty much predominantly for work purposes but I'd still like something snappy, quick and lightweight. Looking to go to 15 inches and would ideally like something under the £2500 mark.

As I won't really be gaming on it, it doesn't have to be the top of the range - but regardless, something fairly snappy would be good. Been looking at Dell XPS 15 but no idea which one to go for!

Advice welcome.

With thanks,

James

I would recommend the Dell XPS range you have been looking at. Solid machines. Just buy the best you can afford they are all well specced really so can’t go wrong.

Thank you. I can't quite work out what the performance difference between the various ranges would be (bearing in mind it's a work machine).
