Dell XPS 17 9710 11th Gen Intel Laptop Review: Small Changes That Matter

New 70 W GeForce RTX 3060. The first generation XPS 17 9700 was one of the best-looking 17-inch laptops with Core-H and GeForce RTX graphics, but it had some under-the-hood peculiarities that needed to be ironed out. The new XPS 17 9710 addresses the underlying issues while boosting performance by quite the margin.

It's been exactly one year since we reviewed the original XPS 17 9700 with 10th gen Intel and GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q graphics. Now, Dell is ready to ship its second generation XPS 17 9710 series updated with 11th gen Intel and GeForce RTX 3060 graphics. Our test unit today is an upper midrange configuration with the Core i7-11800H CPU, RTX 3060 GPU, and 2400p touchscreen for just under $2900 USD. Other SKUs include the Core i9-11900H or RTX 3050 with 1200p display for higher and lower starting prices, respectively.

The 2021 XPS 17 is physically identical to the 2020 version and so we recommend checking out our existing two reviews on last year's model to learn more about the chassis and its features. Nonetheless, there are a handful of under-the-hood updates that make the XPS 17 9710 worth considering over the 9700.

Alternatives to the XPS 17 include high performance 17.3-inch laptops like the Gigabyte Aero 17, LG Ultra 17, or the Razer Blade Pro 17 to some degree. However, the XPS 17 remains unique with its 17.0-inch 16:10 4K aspect ratio.

Case — Incredibly High Screen-to-Body Ratio

The chassis is only a year old and so Dell has made no changes to the exterior design of the XPS 17 9710. Even so, it would have been great to at least see an additional color option like the glass fiber XPS 13 or even a webcam shutter that continues to be conspicuously missing.

Connectivity — Too Many Thunderbolt 4 Ports?

As if the four Thunderbolt 3 ports on the XPS 17 9700 weren't enough, they have all been updated to Thunderbolt 4 on this latest model. Most accessories outside of eGPUs are unlikely to benefit from the upgrade since Thunderbolt 3 and Thunderbolt 4 share the same 40 Gbps ceiling.

SD Card Reader — It's Not Dead

The SD card reader is here to stay and we're glad to see it supported on consumer models like the XPS 17. Moving 1 GB of pictures from our UHS-II test card takes only 5 to 6 seconds.

Communication

The Intel-Killer 1650s comes standard for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. The main difference between this and the more common Intel AX200/201 is its support for the Killer Networking software which offers additional features that enthusiasts might appreciate.

Maintenance

The bottom panel is more difficult to remove than on the XPS 15 since its edges and corners are tighter and sharper.

Accessories and Warranty

Dell includes a handy USB-C to HDMI and USB-A adapter to make up for the fact that the chassis integrates neither of these ports. The standard one-year limited warranty applies with plenty of extension options if ordered directly from Dell.

Display — The First 17.0-inch 16:10 4K Touchscreen

Though the processors have changed, the display has not. The 2021 XPS 17 uses the same Sharp LQ170R1 3840 x 2400 touchscreen as found on the 2020 version for the same visual experience. We don't see this as a problem since the XPS 17 continues to have one of the highest screen-to-body ratios and highest quality displays in terms of color coverage (95 percent DCI-P3), contrast (~1500:1), and brightness (~500 nits) for its 16:10 category.

The display is well calibrated out of the box with average grayscale and color DeltaE values of just 2.9 and 2.46, respectively. Calibrating the panel even further ourselves would reduce the average color DeltaE to 1.85, but solid primary and secondary colors would remain more inaccurate than other colors.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
32 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 15.6 ms rise
↘ 16.4 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 83 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (22.3 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
44.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 20.8 ms rise

The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.25 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 71 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (35.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 19035 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Performance — 45 W TDP CPU with 70 W TGP GPU

Core options include the 11th gen Core i5-11400H, i7-11800H, or i9-11900H CPU with UHD Graphics, GeForce RTX 3050, or RTX 3060. RAM speed (3200 MHz) remains the same as on the XPS 17 9700. Resizable BAR, Optimus, and Dynamic Book 2.0 come standard if configured with dedicated graphics but with no support for internal G-Sync (Advanced Optimus) or WhisperMode 2.0.

Our test unit was set to Ultra Performance mode via Dell Power Manager for the highest possible scores.

Processor

Single-thread and multi-thread performance are up 20 percent and 30 percent, respectively, from the Core i7-10875H in last year's model. Performance sustainability remains excellent as well as shown by our CineBench R15 xT loop results below.

Upgrading to the costlier Core i9-11900H SKU will more than likely bring only marginal performance benefits of just a few percentage points. Core temperatures on our i7-11800H unit are already hovering around 90 C when under load and so a higher-clocked Core i9 part will have almost no additional headroom.

PCMark 10 Standard

PCMark scores are consistently higher than on last year's XPS 17 9700 and most other laptops with older 10th gen Comet Lake-H CPUs for that matter. The greatest boost is in Digital Content Creation where graphics performance matters most.

Storage Devices

Dell has upgraded both PCIe 3.0 M.2 2280 slots on the XPS 17 9700 to PCIe 4 x4 for the 9710. Nonetheless, our test unit comes with a 1 TB Micron 2300 PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSD which can't fully utilize the wider PCIe 4 bandwidth. Performance is still much faster than the Micron 2200S that shipped on our older XPS 17 9700 unit.

GPU Performance — Max-Q at Heart

Raw graphics performance is about 30 percent faster than the RTX 2060 Max-Q in last year's XPS 17 9700 to be a respectable year-over-year upgrade. Perhaps more surprisingly, performance is only about 10 percent slower than a 130 W GeForce RTX 3060 despite the much lower 70 W TGP envelope on our Dell GPU.

Gaming performance is excellent with results that are very close to laptops equipped with GeForce RTX 2070 graphics. However, we recommend gaming on an external monitor when possible because of the slow black-white and gray-gray response times on the internal XPS 17 display for very noticeable ghosting. Gaming isn't the primary focus for XPS laptops, after all.
