The new Dell XPS 15 7590 makes a case for itself by sporting an optional OLED panel, Intel’s latest 9th generation 6 and 8-core CPUs, Nvidia’s GTX 1650 GPU, and, finally, an above-display webcam. As I wrote in an earlier editorial, however, whether or...

There’s an old saying that goes “fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me”. The question about buying the XPS 15 7590 for me is this: What do you call it when you get fooled four times? An idiot? An optimist? A laptop reviewer? I’ve said it again and again over...
