Best sounding speakers I've ever heard on a laptop, so although benchmarks are lower compared to 8th gen i5, when ran side by side with latest Samsung spin, machines were equal 85% of the time (SSD o. Surface could be the reason why?)

I was really excited to get this computer. New i7, 16gb, video card, SSD, and most of all, 4k screen, seemed too good to be true at the 1200. price point. And it turned out, probably was.
Physically, the laptop looked great. Although it was heavy, it still seemed portable due to the slimness factor. But problems began as soon as I turned on the laptop. I had the screen go black on a few occasions (each time a re-boot was required to get the screen back on). The windows update was taking a very long time considering the specs.
After all updates, the biggest issue was how SLOW the laptop was. That, and the annoying "black screen" as well as a track pad that sometimes lagged a few seconds behind my fingers.
Ultimately, I returned this laptop due the above mentioned problems. If Dell is able to fix them, this laptop would go from two stars to four and a half.
