like most laptops the xps series is improved by resetting windows the first thing you do (big button in control panel, asks if you want it to download a clean image from microsoft, gets you onto the windows update drivers dodging the Realtek garbage that's no doubt causing your issue).

yeah, product keys are in uefi somewhere on any modern oem computer, so for an xps it should be a one-click deal (well, something like three i think, 'reset keeping my files', 'download from microsoft', 'yes i am sure it is fine to wipe everything else', iirc) and just work.

xps 13 plus (new gimmick variant for those not aware) seems just worse, with thermal issues even as designed, so any defect probably renders it unusable.

though that too requires getting on a recent kernel (as in newer than what you get default with ubuntu 22.04)
