Pros and Cons

Dell Latitude 15 5530

Strengths

Dell's emphasis on using recycled and renewable materials for its devices is commendable, making it an eco-friendly option.
The laptop uses bioplastics as well as recycled plastics and reused carbon fiber, leading to a reduced carbon footprint.
The typing experience is excellent with long key travel and clicky feedback, making it ideal for office work.
The IO coverage is supercharged with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB Type-A 3.2 Gen1 ports, LAN port, HDMI 2.0 port, audio jack, and micro SD card reader.
The battery life is promising, lasting up to 11 hours and 7 minutes of web browsing or 8 hours and 33 minutes of video playback.

Weaknesses

The keyboard does not have an optional backlight, which might be a drawback for some users.
There's no spill resistance on the keyboard, unlike some other competitors in the Lenovo range.
The touchpad is weirdly surfaced, hindering smoothness when gliding on it.
The display selection includes a 768p panel, which is not ideal, and only the Full HD IPS panel and 4K UHD IPS panel are recommended.
While the laptop has good cooling setup, the CPU isn't made for continuous heavy work, with temperatures and power consumption staying relatively low during stress tests.

Dell XPS 15 9510

Strengths

Dell's have famously had some qc issues in the past so we'll have to see if you do balance for yourself and have any issues, but so far so good.
If you want a premium portable powerhouse, this is very very good.
It would be great if they got rid of that 56 watt hour battery on the base full hd watt version if you could get that 86 watt hour battery with the full hd screen you'd have a really really good battery life and it'd be a great 15-inch travel laptop
The actual plug itself is black, so that kind of ruins the theme a little bit uh but it is pretty portable and like last year it still charges via usbc which is nice so you can use that for your phone as well assuming you're on android.
It's always pricey, but very good.
You can't really get better than this if you want a premium portable powerhouse.
The battery life is okay, i'm getting about six hours of use i'd say it's on par with last year and of course if you are gaming you'll get about an hour and a half with lower performance as well so with light use it will get you through a full office day probably
The webcam is pretty bad which is a real shame given how important that is these days also it's a bit of a shame we have to compromise with the 3.5 k res on the oled model uh it would be the best of both worlds if we had proper 4k but it's not really a big deal i guess
