Premium vs. XPS
Are there absolutely any differences between buying a new 2025/26 "Dell XPS 16" from Dell, and buying a "Dell Premium 16" from a big box retailer such as Walmart? They both have 32gigs ram, 1tb storage, look exactly the same, feel exactly the same, same Intel i7 Ultra, only difference is that the Premium has a marginally nicer graphics card... but literally seem to be identical devices. Please help me figure out if this is literally nothing but branding/naming rights, or whether there is anything at all that is different? AI says that the premium is a step below the XPS in construction and machining of the aluminum body, but again, both look and feel identical in-hand... I am predisposed to not trust AI. Thank you all! 😄 (Above I have attached the two product images)
