A completely illogical comment, but not surprised, as there's one on every dGPU-laptop thread. Not everyone wants a touch screen; it's still a 120Hz 500-nits display; 16GB RAM is perfect for 95% of the people. This is not a gaming laptop at all, so it doesn't matter if 4050 is weak in games, which it definitely isn't and actually holds its own, esp. at the given price.
This is an XPS, which is a top-of-the-line business laptop series, and anyone looking for one would not care about anything that you have mentioned.

Exceptional computer in every way, and unlike many of these sleek laptops it seems like this one actually has a good cooling design.

However, and this is both from reviews and my brief experience with it at the store, the flush keyboard style unfortunately renders the laptop downright unusable for many people.

The spacing of the keys is subtly different from any other keyboard and I simply couldn't get used to it. I honestly can't imagine how anyone outside of "hunt and peck" style typers use this keyboard.

Anyone own this laptop eventually get used to the keyboard?

THIS.

I have been looking for a nice performance laptop that does not have touch screen, and its a struggle! I also do not care about gaming.

Some folks say: just disable the touchscreen! However, they forget that it adds to the cost and inflates the price.

I'm on the fence about this doesn't seem to be a screaming deal, heavy, SSD hd, and a 4050 which is ok but good screen size

Awesome build quality.

OP title says 4050. OP specs say 4060.

The RTX 4060 option has a 50W power consumption, according to one source.
The RTX 4070 option can run at up to 60W of graphics power.

At $620 this is a really good deal. Thanks OP.

Thanks for pointing that out; it was a typo. It's been corrected, it's a 30W RTX 4050 in this.

I did look at some of the review comments and saw one on the keyboard. Also read one about the battery not being great, as I recall, a student got like 2.5 hours. A graphics card sounds good but it has that power cost.
