I know what you are thinking . . this guy is crazy.
I have owned Macbook Pros for the last 15+ years. They are solid powerhouses with great resale value. I have always upgraded the ram / hard drive and they last 5-7 years for me.
Now . . Macbook Pros cannot be upgraded (ram/hard drive soldered to the motherboard). I needed to upgrade but had no clue where to go.
I have always had a PC at home that I use for artwork/music/etc. The Macbook Pro was just my travel computer.
In walks the Dell XPS 13 (9370).
After a few months of using it, I can honestly say that I am impressed.
Its 13" screen is the same size as my Macbook Pro . . BUT and this is a big BUT (ie: Sir Mix Alot) . . there is barely a rim at all. This laptop is WAY lighter than my Macbook and a lot smaller (I know . . if I had a new Macbook Pro it would be similar . . but it would also cost $400 to put 16gb of ram in it).
This laptop is fast, light, and honestly a great product. I love Windows 10 and the functionality. The battery life is great . . trackpad is great . . keyboard is great . . did I mention this thing is Great!
Buy one . . you won't regret it!
