00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:08.360
is an all-in-one computer really an allinone if you have to plug in an army

00:00:05.759 --> 00:00:14.480
of peripherals with wire snaking all over the place well the Dell XPS 27

00:00:12.440 --> 00:00:21.480
promises to knock at least some of the Clutter off your table with its

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:25.119
apparently audio file grade 10 speaker

00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:28.439
sound system well I like the sound of

00:00:25.119 --> 00:00:31.960
that but can it deliver on the hype

00:00:28.439 --> 00:00:31.960
let's find out

00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:45.520
the master keys Pro keyboard lineup from Cooler Master is available in three

00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:46.960
sizes each in white or RGB flavors check

00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:53.960
them out at the link below only a single cable is required to

00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:56.559
run the XPS 27 everything but the mouse

00:00:53.960 --> 00:01:03.399
and keyboard including the power supply is contained inside its sharp profession

00:01:00.559 --> 00:01:09.640
form factor and this thing is pretty darn sexy especially from the front and

00:01:07.520 --> 00:01:15.759
it feels pretty good too thanks to its Hefty aluminum construction The Touch

00:01:12.119 --> 00:01:17.640
version is a whopping 372 lb but if

00:01:15.759 --> 00:01:21.640
that's a little heavy for your tastes the non-touch version is 8 lb lighter

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:26.280
though it lacks this really cool articulating ARM that allows the display

00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:32.000
to go from 5° down all the way to completely flat something even the

00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:33.680
Microsoft Surface Studio does not do we

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:38.040
do need to be careful about comparing this to the surface Studio though

00:01:35.320 --> 00:01:44.159
because Dell positions the canvas monitor as their Studio killer but since

00:01:41.600 --> 00:01:50.280
we're at it it should be noted that the XPS 27 screen takes considerably more

00:01:47.119 --> 00:01:51.960
Force to adjust than the studio on the

00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:56.399
right you'll find the power button along with a USB 3 port with Power share and

00:01:54.360 --> 00:02:02.000
on the left we have a welcome SD card slot and a headphone jack above the 27

00:02:00.039 --> 00:02:07.200
in screen is a four microphone array that allows you to summon Cortana from

00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:09.039
up to 15 ft away then below it a 720p

00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:15.959
infrared camera and two infrared emitters for Windows hello and the XPS

00:02:12.239 --> 00:02:18.680
27's claim to fame the 10 speaker sound

00:02:15.959 --> 00:02:25.400
system which I will explain more about after I show you the rest of the I/O

00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:25.400
which uh hold on I'll get

00:02:25.640 --> 00:02:30.640
it okay yeah unfortunately getting at

00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:35.560
the little K that contains the rest of the plugs

00:02:32.920 --> 00:02:41.360
requires the reach around technique and some clumsy fumbling but once you get in

00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:47.080
there you'll find that your shiny new aiio is fairly well endowed it's got

00:02:44.440 --> 00:02:55.480
gigabit Ethernet DisplayPort out and HDMI out two Thunderbolt 3 USB type-c

00:02:51.760 --> 00:02:59.120
ports audio line out and four USB 3

00:02:55.480 --> 00:03:01.640
ports plus a bonus USB hidden below this

00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:06.239
removable panel panel the perfect spot for the dongle for the surprisingly

00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:11.319
excellent included wireless keyboard that even features high-end Multi-Device

00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:16.760
functionality and the strikingly mediocre Mouse this is also the place

00:03:14.640 --> 00:03:21.200
where you'll find the only two screws holding the back cover on and then the

00:03:18.959 --> 00:03:26.799
three more that reveal the motherboard making this machine shockingly easy to

00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:30.319
upgrade not that we would want to the

00:03:26.799 --> 00:03:33.879
base model priced at 13.49 has a COR I5

00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:36.599
6400 processor with onboard Graphics but

00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:46.560
most models are equipped with a core i7 6700 with either AMD R9 m470x or M 485x

00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:48.840
Graphics our 16 gig skew has two slots

00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:54.760
available allowing for an easy upgrade path to 32 gigs and a total of three

00:03:51.480 --> 00:03:56.760
storage Bays one m.2 NVMe with its own

00:03:54.760 --> 00:04:02.040
freaking fan which is great for preventing thermal throttling and two 2

00:03:59.079 --> 00:04:08.400
and 1/2 in for additional ssds or hard drives so that's pretty cool and so are

00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:10.680
The Thermals we taxed the FPU at the

00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:15.159
same time as running the fuzzy donut of death and although it did reach the

00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:22.400
point where it sounded like it was ready for lift off the CPU leveled off at 85°

00:04:18.799 --> 00:04:24.720
C and never throttled I feel pretty good

00:04:22.400 --> 00:04:29.400
about Dell's thermal solution here bottom line then the XPS 27's

00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:34.160
performance is suitable for 4K media cons assumption assuming no DRM

00:04:32.039 --> 00:04:40.320
restrictions that require a 7th Gen processor and even photo and video

00:04:36.840 --> 00:04:45.479
editing and creation which the 3840 X

00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:48.400
2160 4K IPS display will handle nicely

00:04:45.479 --> 00:04:52.560
It suffers from Best Buy TV syndrome a little bit out of the box with

00:04:49.840 --> 00:04:57.919
overcooked Reds and some somewhat of a green cast on the whites and Grays but

00:04:55.440 --> 00:05:02.120
with calibration this display could easily be used by professional photo

00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:07.080
editors it's available in both touchscreen and non-touchscreen flavors

00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:13.160
and boasts wide viewing angles a brightness of 300 plus nits and over a

00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:17.199
billion colors and the boasting is Justified this is a very good display it

00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:23.199
covers 99.95% of the Adobe RGB color space with

00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:29.000
spot-on color temperature and Gamma out of the box and one of the best contrast

00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:32.000
ratios we've ever tested which makes it

00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:35.160
especially tragic that Dell neglected to

00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:36.800
include an HDMI input so if you were

00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:42.240
hoping to get some more mileage out of your XPS 207 as a monitor once the

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:48.080
computer hardware is obsolete you will be sorely disappointed which I guess

00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:51.479
leads us perfectly into our next topic if you're going to put a dedicated

00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:58.479
graphics card in it we're going to run some games our unit with the AMD m470x

00:05:55.319 --> 00:06:01.400
and 4 gigs of gddr5 had DSX mankind

00:05:58.479 --> 00:06:06.599
divided running at 3 2 FPS on low with rise of the Tomb Raider averaging 48 FPS

00:06:03.840 --> 00:06:12.680
on low and 38 on medium but it should be noted that that's at 1080p one quar of

00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:15.199
the screen's resolution both games were absolute slideshows when we tried them

00:06:14.440 --> 00:06:20.599
at 4K but in Dell's defense they never told

00:06:18.280 --> 00:06:25.479
us that this thing was built for gaming Dell is emphasizing that every single

00:06:23.280 --> 00:06:32.240
person who buys one of these is getting the utmost in both display and audio

00:06:28.880 --> 00:06:35.199
quality a first in the AIO category

00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:40.880
that's dominated by the iMac a computer with its FaceTime microphone on the back

00:06:39.039 --> 00:06:47.080
so how does it sound actually pretty freaking decent

00:06:44.919 --> 00:06:52.560
it's got good articulation with clear highs and the width of the Soundbar

00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:54.639
gives it a noticeable stereo effect it's

00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:59.160
not perfect I'm not sure if the marketing accounts for the drop off in

00:06:56.639 --> 00:07:04.120
sound quality when it nears full volume and the B is present but obviously not

00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:10.319
nearly as low as could be achieved with a separate subwoofer but that doesn't

00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:12.639
mean we weren't really really impressed

00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:17.319
the speakers are great for rocking out while you work watching movies or even

00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:20.840
providing background music when you have a few people

00:07:18.840 --> 00:07:24.360
over you know if you think about it going out to eat not only is really

00:07:22.960 --> 00:07:28.440
expensive it's actually not that efficient you spend all this time

00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:32.280
driving when you could have just been preparing a meal and and cleaning up

00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:37.080
after it so blue apron solves that problem they allow you to create

00:07:33.840 --> 00:07:38.960

time all the meals can be prepared in 40 minutes or less and you don't even have
