The Dell XPS 15 9570 launched in 2018 as Dell's flagship 15-inch laptop, built for creators, developers, and power users who wanted real performance in a compact aluminum chassis. It paired 8th-generation Intel processors with an optional discrete NVIDIA GPU, a rarity in ultraportables of that era, and its narrow-bezel InfinityEdge display was among the first to bring a 4K UHD touch option to a laptop this size. Years later, the 9570 still holds value because of its build quality, upgradeable NVMe storage, and the GTX 1050 Ti configuration that keeps it useful for light creative work and everyday computing. If you have one sitting in a drawer, pick your processor, graphics, display, and condition above for an instant cash offer.

Confirm you have the Dell XPS 15 9570

The fastest way to confirm this exact model is through Windows itself. Press Windows key + R, type dxdiag, and press Enter to see the system model and BIOS version, or type msinfo32 for a more detailed system summary. Dell also prints a service tag and model number on a sticker on the underside of the laptop, near the vents.

XPS 15 9570 (Non-Touch, FHD)

  • 1920 x 1080 matte or anti-glare display
  • Lighter of the two display options
  • Pairs with i5, i7, or i9 processor options

XPS 15 9570 (Touchscreen, 4K UHD)

  • 3840 x 2160 touch display with InfinityEdge bezel
  • Glass-covered, glossy panel
  • Typically paired with higher-tier CPU and GPU configs

Prefer a visual check? The 9570 has a machined aluminum lid and palm rest, with a black carbon-fiber weave keyboard deck on most units. A fingerprint reader sits inside the power button at the top-right of the keyboard. The hinge only opens to a laptop position — it does not fold flat or rotate like the convertible XPS 15 9575.

Display & audio

Display

The base configuration uses a 15.6-inch 1920 x 1080 non-touch InfinityEdge display. The upgraded option is a 3840 x 2160 UHD touchscreen with the same narrow-bezel design, covered in glass.

Audio

Stereo speakers sit on either side of the keyboard deck, tuned with Waves MaxxAudio Pro software. Output is clear enough for calls and casual media but light on bass.

Security

A fingerprint reader is built into the power button for Windows Hello sign-in. This model does not include an IR camera for facial recognition.

Ports & connectivity

The 9570 mixes legacy and modern ports, which is part of why it still works well without an adapter for common peripherals.

Battery, build & more

Battery

Configurations shipped with either a smaller or a larger capacity battery, with the bigger cell typically paired with higher-end builds. Battery health matters for the condition grade since replacement requires opening the sealed base panel.

Dimensions & weight

The chassis weighs a bit over 4 pounds depending on display option, with the 4K touch panel adding some weight over the FHD version.

Finishes

Dell sold the 9570 with a silver aluminum lid and a black carbon-fiber weave palm rest, and in a rose gold lid with a white glass-fiber weave deck.

Known issues

Some units, particularly i9 configurations paired with the 4K display, run hot under sustained load and throttle performance. A subset of units also reported coil whine under heavy GPU use. Neither issue affects typical everyday use.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I find the model number and exact configuration?
Press Windows key + R, type dxdiag, and press Enter to see the system model and BIOS details, or type msinfo32 for a fuller summary including installed RAM and processor. Dell also prints the model number and service tag on a sticker on the underside of the laptop. The service tag lets you pull the exact factory configuration from Dell's support site if the sticker is worn. If you are not sure which laptop you have at all, our model finder can help narrow it down.
02 How do I tell it apart from the XPS 15 9575?
The XPS 15 9575 is a 2-in-1 convertible from the same era, and it is the model most often confused with the 9570. The 9575 has a 360-degree hinge that folds flat into tablet mode, uses AMD Radeon graphics rather than NVIDIA, and is noticeably thinner and lighter. The 9570 only opens to a standard laptop position and, when equipped with discrete graphics, uses an NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti instead of AMD silicon. If the hinge folds past 180 degrees, you have the 9575, not the 9570.
03 Can I sell it with damage, a weak battery, or if it won't turn on?
Yes. Cracked screens, failing batteries, and units that won't power on can still be sold — select the matching condition above and the quote adjusts accordingly. Before shipping, you do need to remove the device from your Microsoft account and turn off or suspend BitLocker encryption if it is enabled, since an active account lock or encrypted drive can prevent testing. If the laptop won't boot at all, note that in the condition picker rather than guessing at a higher grade.
04 What raises the trade-in value the most?
Configuration and cosmetic condition matter most. A unit with the GTX 1050 Ti, a higher storage tier, and a healthy battery will out-value an integrated-graphics base model in similar shape. Beyond specs, a screen free of cracks or dead pixels, a keyboard deck without heavy wear, and having the original charger on hand all help. A laptop that boots cleanly and passes diagnostic testing will always grade higher than one that doesn't.
05 How do I erase it and remove my accounts, and how do I get paid?
Go to Settings → System → Recovery, then choose Reset this PC and select "Remove everything." Before that finishes, remove the laptop from your Microsoft account online and suspend or decrypt BitLocker if you turned it on, so the drive isn't locked when we test it. Full details, including steps for local accounts, are in our data erasure protocols. Once your device arrives, shipping is free and insured, and payment goes out after testing by PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or check.
