For what it's worth, the T-Series Lenovo laptops can take 32GB and have matte screen options. I'm using a W-series at the moment that has a matte screen, and it can take 64GB, with the latest one taking up to 128.

The W-series isn't nearly as sleek as the XPS, although the T-series ones are looking pretty good these days!

Be aware: only the T series without the ‘s’, e.g.:

T450 (has 2 dimm slots) but not T450s (smaller, has 1 dimm slot + 1 soldered module)

4= display size (14’) 5= cpu generation (here: Broadwell)

So an equivalent to the new XPS would be a

T480 T480s

Thunderbolt is only available from T470 onwards (not in the x270)

T-series are great machines. Even the old T520 can do 16gb, which is pretty good for a unit you can get under $200
