This is the kind of thing to compare it to.
15", double the RAM, better processor, better graphics card, no touchscreen, £150 cheaper
13", double the RAM, better processor, touchscreen, similar price
Battery life may not be quite as good if you're needing a full day without charging. (Although with USB C charging there are a fair few external battery packs out there now.)

That's exactly the laptop I bought a month or two ago. Very pleased with it. Couple of teething problems with the hinge thinking that I was using it in tablet mode when I was using it on my lap, and the fingerprint reader being crap, but driver updates seem to have sorted both of those out and it's been reliable since.
Haven't tried to use it for a full day without charging but I suspect it'd be fine (at least a full work day).
It's very quick. Not quite as flash as the XPS, but it's about 2/3 the price.
Torn.
Looking at laptops and I'm just going around in circles it seems.
I want something that will happily carry out my photography duties, namely lighroom, capture one or alien skin. As well as blogging - something which I'm guessing all laptops are up to now a days. The other requirement is somewhat decent battery life.
I thought I had narrowed my choices down and found the huawei matebook. The i7 with 8gb ram and 512SSD for around £900.
Will I find a better suited laptop for the price?
Oh I'd just like to add I looked at the macbook air and quickly found I didn't think it was up to the job. Then the macbook pro is quite a jump.
