Have you seen xps 15 7590? It's almost slightly larger at 15" and Intel 9th gen. Otherwise you can max it out pretty much to the same specs. The only other major difference is mobile nvidia rather than just Intel. But it's been out for quite a while and you can even catch some outlet offers.

yes - personally I just don't want a 15". I would probably get a ThinkPad Nano to size down to 13" if I could get more RAM in it.

and I'm more comfortable with the quality reputation of ThinkPads over the Dell XPS. I've just heard more anecdotes about quality control and overheating issues with the XPS line.
