Dell XPS 17 (2020) review: heavy hitter

The Verge

I always split the screen between two or three open windows, whether I was working in Chrome, editing multiple photos, or Slacking while streaming video, and I was quite comfortable.

Using it was a good, smooth experience: I can’t imagine that anyone using the X12 for standard business work with Chrome tabs, streaming, Zoom calls, and the like will encounter any performance issues.
