The RAM in one of these XPS laptops is soldered but it's more like traditional RAM. The difference will partially reflect the differences in upgrade pricing. The other part is upgrades are how Apple keeps hardware gross margins around 35%. The base model will have a significantly lower margin but Apple can make up for that by having higher margin upgrades (likely around 50% -- that means the $400 upgrade costs Apple [before taxes and other things factoring into net margins] about $200).
These XPS laptops are great computers. This is a solid price for one.

Personally, I don't think there is much of a difference. These SoC's are manufactured in such high volumes, it isn't rocket science and the upcharge ($400) is extreme.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank
and Macbook air does not have junk apps pre-installed
BTW, there really isn't much on Dell platforms like this.
O365 trial, AV trial, and a few del apps.
All can easily be removed in just a few clicks.
We had various versions of the XPS at my old work... they held up well, long as you didn't drop them! Even then, they did fine.
Easy enough to work on main components (storage, memory, battery).
Don't recommend touch screen... most people really don't use it and as stated above crushes battery. Like from 11hr to 8hr just doing normal office work.
