    I’m currently looking at purchasing either 1 of these laptops.

    One thing I find very annoying though is that neither of the newest versions of either are available in Ireland.

    Does anyone know when either the X1 Gen 8 or the new XPS will be available.

    Would anyone advise one over the other?

    the new xps is in short supply as just came out in late Jan with a long lead time - probably to do with the coronavirus.

    could be the same with the lenovo

    pretty much all laptops are made in China these days.

    Am I correct in saying that the 2 in 1 which is currently for sale isn’t being upgraded. Appears to have a 10th gen Core I processor along with the edge to edge keyboard.

    different models can be updated at different times
