The 2017 Dell developer edition XPS 13 with Ubuntu is actually one of the systems that gave me the most trouble, quite ironically. Bluetooth loved to disappear for no reason and would only return with a reboot. No amount of unloading/reloading modules could bring it back. Didn't have any issues with Windows on that laptop. Current laptop is a Lenovo X1 Nano and it's behaving reasonably.

Sounds like the wireless card issue of a few years back. Believe it was fixed by replacing the cheaper module with an Intel wireless card. Never affected me.
