Hello : )
Do you have any experience with this laptop, if so would you think it's currently worth purchasing?
My main intent of this machine is for it to be mostly a travel companion when i go on holidays, consume media and photo editing.
Worth a buy @ this price?
Is it else where any cheaper?
Thanks!
some reviewers say you can just flip it (the whole screen) to circumvent that
That's expensive, with discounts you can get fairly close to that on the newer model (9370)
You are paying a significant premium for slightly lighter weight and better looks - you can get reasonable specs in say a ThinkPad E480 for a lot less. Bit heavier, probably just as reliable, no touch screen.

Agree with this, I'm in the same predicament, but will probably go for the cyber sale inspiron laptop, but I value specs over form factor / weight.
The current cyber sale (http://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/deals/performance-deals) is cheaper
Infinitely better if you go for the refurbished ones (http://www.dell.com/learn/au/en/audhs1/campaigns/dell-outlet…)
Edit: Sorry the cyber sale is not cheaper
I do want it to be light weight with a touch screen though that's why I'm keen for an XPS and with 8th Gen Intel CPUs as they have been shown to be significantly improved over last gen
I had the exact laptop - expereince wasnt great.
Not worth the premium price point. I may just have had a bad unit, but i sent it for repairs/warranty claim 3 times in a year.
HAve since upgraded to XPS 15 (non touch screen) - far better experience, plus teh keyboard is way better, nto sure why.
Higher specs and cheaper from Dell, plus current promo 10% credit back, so you can get yourself a backpack or a monitor.

I bought this one early 2017:
Within first 4 months:
Overall:
Great laptop but quality built is mediocre….. I would probably suggest to wait for the 2018 model.
Damn, who was the repairs done by, dell?
How long was the process?
with xps, should be on site.
the webcam is located at the bottom of the screen, so might not be as appealing; as the other party will see your nose :)
