The Dell XPS 13 used to be the go-to laptop we would recommend, and it’s still great. This model has a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite CPU, a massive 32GB RAM, and 1TB SSD, so it’s highly capable. Battery life of up to 27 hours makes it perfect if you’re not near a power source often.

In our Dell XPS 16 review, we only really criticised its high asking price, which is less of an issue during this sale. This model has an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H CPU, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, and also has a dedicated GPU with the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050. It’s a good all-rounder for content creation and even some light gaming.

How to choose a Dell XPS on Black Friday

Dell is one of the best laptop brands primarily because of its XPS range. That means whatever you buy will be a delight. Dell has many of the best laptops, so you simply need to think about how you plan on using one.

If you just want a simple but stylish Dell XPS to use for basic tasks, don’t worry about spending too much. Just focus on a great screen if you can and keep an eye on battery life. However, if you’re a content creator looking to edit videos or images, go for one of the more high-end Dell XPS models. Aim for a powerful CPU, plenty of RAM, and sufficient storage so you can easily store all your files. Also, do you need a laptop or are you planning on using it mostly from home? Better value could come from a Dell XPS desktop instead if you don’t plan on travelling.

If you're thinking of building or upgrading a PC, then you'll really want to grab yourself some great Black Friday RAM deals.
