In fact, it feels ever so slightly sluggish – about on par with our 2019 MacBook Pro 13-inch, which only has Intel Iris Plus graphics inside. It performs smoothly in Adobe Photoshop, but isn’t as snappy (or quiet for that matter) handling 10 or more high-resolution images in Adobe Lightroom. This shouldn’t be too surprising, though. It has scored much better than its predecessors, but much lower than its larger counterpart. However, even the RTX 3050 Ti is no match for the RTX 3060 in the XPS 17. Next to the more powerful Dell XPS 17 (2021), it holds it own and doesn’t get left behind in the dust, scoring 1,541 points in single-core on GeekBench 5 and 9,642 points on Cinebench R23 next to the 17-inch’s 1,574 and 9,923 scores, respectively. It’s snappy while staying cool under pressure. The Dell XPS 15 OLED (2021) certainly breezes through some demanding tasks, like when you’ve got over 20 browser tabs – a couple of them streaming shows, Spotify, and Microsoft Outlook open at the same time. It’s certainly a nice upgrade from the Dell XPS 15 (2020)’s GTX 1650 Ti, but is it enough for creative professionals? GeekBench 5: 1,541 (single-core) 7,847 (multi-core)īattery Life (TechRadar movie test): 6h 37mīoasting an Intel Core i7-11800H CPU and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Ti GPU, along with 16GB of memory, the Dell XPS 15 OLED (2021) is designed with more demanding users in mind. Here’s how the Dell XPS 15 (2021) performed in our suite of benchmark tests:ģDMark Time Spy: 4,574 Fire Strike: 9,811 Night Raid: 21,185 The only difference is that the highest US configuration gets you 8TB of storage while those in the UK and Australia limit you to 2TB. Meanwhile, the top-end configuration with an 11th-gen Core i9 and 64GB of RAM will cost you $4,507 in the US and £3,223/AU$5,538 in the UK and Australia. The minimum OLED display configuration, which comes with an 11th-gen Core i7, RTX 3050 Ti and 16GB RAM, will set you back a whopping $1,959 (£2,098, AU$4,098). Not that there are many options at the moment, but even if there were, the Dell XPS 15 OLED (2021) is among the best ways to get into this new OLED laptop trend, even if it’s a bit more expensive.
