Sharp design, Excellent 1080p display, Good performance for price, ESATA port, Fingerprint-resistant chassis
No Blu-ray player or lock slot, So-so keyboard
The XPS 15z has a strong design, a beautiful 1080p LCD, and speed for the money. We had some quibbles, but its CPU/GPU muscle and long battery life make this a fine all-purpose machine. ...
Speedy, modern hardware and features, Sleek, sturdy design
GPU is a bit limited at the high price range, "Splendid Color" oversaturates the display
If every Dell laptop were this good in both build and design, the company's reputation among consumers would be completely restored. Dell XPS 15z: Attractively Built, Attractively Priced Laptop Dell XPS 15z Review, by Jason Cross July 1, 2011 The obvi...
Truly beautiful design, Huge touchpad with gestures support, 1080p LCD panel, Comfortable, backlit keyboard, Fast for the price
Too few USB 3.0 ports, Gets warm in heavy use, Fans can get a little noisy, Can't remove the battery
There's just no question that the XPS 15z is a beautiful laptop. Yes, it looks a bit like the MacBook Pro, but is that really a bad thing? Dell has still made this design their own, and the keyboard / trackpad experience is currently among the best availa...
Successful design, High-end materials, Good connectivity and positioning, Good display brightness and contrast, Solid performance reserves, Good battery life
Loud hard disk, High temperatures and noise during load, Moderate speaker quality, Irremovably built-in battery
Dell XPS 15z NotebookFacts about the Dell XPS z series was kept rather secretive for a long time. After all, it is the successor of the famous Adamo, or rather Adamo XPS. However, what we could judge with the first representative, the 15 inch XPS 15z, rem...
Abstract: J. Simon Leitner (translated by Martina Osztovits), 05/24/2011 A long time rumors about the succession of the slim Adamo series flew thick and fast. Now, we know the official answer: Adamo turns into Dell XPS -z. The 15-inch model of the new slim alu...
Abstract: For years, Dell's been teasing supermodel-thin laptops, each one flawed out of the gate: too pricey, too underpowered, and with underwhelming battery life. This time, Dell told us we'd get something different: a laptop without compromise. Recently, Ro...
Keyboard feels shallow, Hard to see keys without backlight, Gets hot during gameplay, Webcam not HD
The Dell XPS 15z addresses the two major concerns we had with the XPS 15, namely, bulk and endurance. This slimmed-down system has a more elegant, streamlined look and measures less than an inch thick. Plus, you get 6 hours of battery life. Our only ma...
Less than one inch thick, Gorgeous aluminum design, Best-in-class screen, Great keyboard, backlights, Lightweight, Reasonably priced, Very good performance scores, Coast-to-coast battery life, Can hold its own as a gaming laptop, Nvidia Optimus present,
Fans are kind of loud,

Bang for the buckOptional 1080p display and nice loud speakersLooks like a MacBook Pro
Middle-of-the-road battery lifeNo quad-core or Blu-ray optionsLooks like a MacBook Pro
These two laptops are not equals, but they never had to be -- for hundreds upon hundreds of dollars less than the Mac competition, Dell's unleashed an attractive, powerful and definitely desirable Windows PC. It's perhaps desirable enough to woo buyers wh...

The new Dell XPS15z is extremely thin for a midsize laptop, and includes a powerful CPU and midrange GPU, along with a 1080p display and backlit keyboard
It's still not thinner than the 15-inch MacBook Pro, and in our high-end $1,500 configuration, we'd expect longer battery life and a better GPU
Claiming to be the world's thinnest Windows laptop, the Dell XPS 15z is a sharp-looking package with upgradable high-end features and a reasonable $999 starting price.
