I had one with I think a 7th gen Intel processor, and while it ran Linux pretty well the coil whine was enough to drive me absolutely batty. I made it about a year before I traded it in.
I got an XPS 13 Developer Edition around 2019 I think.
I still have it. It was a good machine.
Most things worked correctly out of the box but occasionally WIFI didn't wake from sleep properly and the battery life was always a bit rubbish compared to any MacBook Pro.
I think that Dell have had too many models forever. Simplifying their line up is a good idea.
