I have a Dell Inspiron 13 (8th generation) that I bought from Costco. I am running CentOS 7 on it. I was told that it has the same hardware of XPS 13. Most things work well out of the box: wifi, suspend-to-ram, HDMI output, Audio over HDMI, touchscreen, etc. I don't remember tweaking anything. The only thing not working perfectly I could find: the screen doesn't automatically rotate when being folded into tablet mode, but I just go into GNOME settings and rotate the screen myself. Not a big deal. Then I can watch Twitch using it like a tablet. I'd check the XPS 15's wifi module before buying it. The Inspiron 13 I have has Atheros, which doesn't require a proprietary binary driver. Intel's are even better. I know sometimes Dell throws in Broadcomm wifi modules, which require the proprietary wl driver. -- Yan Li
