Dell XPS 16

Dell XPS 16 is the 16-inch laptop in the XPS line, introduced by Dell in 2024 to replace the XPS 15 and XPS 17. It is built for graphic designers, video editors, and programmers who want a big display in a slim-bezel laptop with an aluminum chassis. It runs an Intel Core Ultra H-series chip: one generation carries NVIDIA discrete graphics for 3D work, while another uses Intel Arc integrated graphics for a lighter, cooler laptop.

Hung Phat Laptop currently sells two XPS 16 generations: the 9640, released in 2024, and the DA16260 from 2026. Because this is a new line, the category has no discontinued older models. Read on to see how the two generations differ and which kind of work each one suits.

Both XPS 16 generations share a display of about 16 inches with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, an aluminum chassis, and LPDDR5X RAM soldered to the motherboard. They differ mainly in chip generation and graphics. The 2026 model relies on Intel Arc integrated graphics to stay compact and light, while the 2024 model adds NVIDIA GeForce RTX discrete graphics for software that needs a discrete GPU.

DELL XPS 16 DA16260 (2026): A 16-Inch Display in a Lighter Body

The 2026 model is made for 2D graphics, photo editing, video editing, and multi-window programming, for people who need a large display they can still carry every day. At about 1.65kg, it runs on an Intel Core Ultra X9 388H chip, 32GB of LPDDR5X 9600MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD.

The 16-inch 120Hz display offers an optional 3.2K OLED panel for vivid color and deep blacks. The integrated Intel Arc graphics on the new chip are far stronger than the previous generation's, so many photo editing and light video editing tasks no longer need discrete graphics, and the laptop runs cooler and draws less battery power when you work away from an outlet.

DELL XPS 16 9640 (2024): NVIDIA Discrete Graphics for Video Editing and 3D

The 2024 model is for people who edit video, render 3D, or need an NVIDIA GPU. The version currently available pairs an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H with 16GB of LPDDR5X 6400MHz RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a GeForce RTX 4050 6GB; Dell also offers RTX 4060 and RTX 4070 configurations beyond this one.

The 16.3-inch display has a refresh rate of up to 120Hz and an optional 4K+ OLED touch panel. It weighs about 2.13kg and uses a touch function row and a glass-flush touchpad, so if you type a lot, try it first to make sure it suits your hands.

Choosing a Dell XPS 16 for How You Use It

If your main work is 2D design, photo editing, short video editing, and programming, the DA16260 with its new chip, 32GB of RAM, and Intel Arc graphics is all you need, and it is almost half a kilogram lighter. If you work in 3D, render a lot, or use software that takes advantage of an NVIDIA GPU, the 9640 with RTX discrete graphics gets the job done faster, in exchange for more weight and shorter battery life.

Both generations have RAM soldered to the motherboard, so it cannot be upgraded later. Choose enough capacity from the start: 16GB for programming and office work, 32GB for video editing and multi-layer graphics. If you want something more compact to carry every day, explore the other sizes in the Dell XPS laptops category.
