I have an XPS 15 9560, running Ubuntu. Honestly I really dislike it. Linux just can't properly handle a 4k display, or a laptop with a graphics card. I have to reboot to turn on Integrated graphics instead of a graphics card every time I want to use my laptop away from a charger, or else the graphics card stays on permanently and drains the battery so fast.

It is also incapable of going into hibernate, meaning I have to shut it down every time I want to stop using it for an extended period of time. Closing the lid causes it to heat up constantly, which is an issue if you ever absentmindedly close the lid or put it in your bag without shutting it down. It has gotten to extremely high temperatures from doing this.

Just makes me want a macOS device, for a laptop at least.
