The Dell XPS 17 is an incredibly powerful laptop that is easy to carry around due to its thin and lightweight design. However, the high price and lack of legacy ports may stop some folks from going all-in on this luxurious laptop.

Dell XPS 17 9710 review – so much power in such a slim chassis
Source: Laptop Media Archive.org version
There are so many things to say about the XPS 17 of 2021. First of all, before we start talking about the performance, we want to remind you that we are talking about a laptop that is only 13.2mm at its thickest. And in order to cool the Core i9-11900H and RTX 3060 we had inside of it, Dell needed to think outside the box. Well, it’s not to say that they were super innovative with their solution, as we’ve seen it implemented on Razer and Lenovo laptops before. However, the vapor chamber was the way to go. Now, you can’t expect everything to be great at this thickness, right? So, in addition to being hard to cool down, this laptop lacks some essential ports. Although there are four Thunderbolt 4 connectors, as well as an SD card slot, there are no USB Type-A ports, whatsoever. Unlike Apple, however, Dell gets you covered with a little dongle inside the box. Yes, it only splits one of the Thunderbolt ports to USB Type-A + HDMI, but it is something, right? At the end of the day, the XPS 17 9710 is a super niche product that isn’t for everybody.
