Dell XPS 15 9530 review – it doesn’t even need to be changed
Dell’s XPS series has been around for more than 10 years. For this amount of time, it has undergone only a couple of major design changes. To be honest, Dell has always been ahead of its competitors in this aspect, so we have to cut them some slack in this perspective.
On the other hand, the device gets yearly updates, with which comes an according name change – this is how the XPS 15 9530 was reborn (only in terms of its name, of course).
This 2023 model features Intel’s 13th Gen CPUs. In addition, you get a wide choice of graphics cards. Intel has become even more intrusive in the laptop world, as it now supplies low-end gaming GPUs too – the Arc A370M in this case.
On the other hand, you can look up to NVIDIA’s offers to get something more powerful and representable – the choice spans the RTX 4050, RTX 4060, and the RTX 4070. All of them, however, have quite low TGPs, in accordance with the low thermal capacity of the chassis.

I can comment on the display since I have this and the 4K. The difference is huge. 4k display is much, but much, better. This display is blurry compared to the 4K. When you get a 4K laptop and you go back to FHD+ you will notice for sure. Just my 2 cents for the people who have doubts about which one to buy. 4K, it’s worth the money.
Excellent review! The detailed benchmarks and thermal analysis really helped me understand the Dell XPS 15 9530 better. Thanks for sharing!
