XPS

XPS 13" i7 8th gen with 512gb and 16gb ram what do you guys think if i get this and download with kali linux should i buy it? (=
If you're honestly just buying it for Kali then you're an idiot. XPS has somewhat ok battery life from what I've heard, so if you are looking to go all day with it then look somewhere else. If you interested in buying a laptop solely for Linux then it'll be pretty good, just use a normal distro.
Currently typing this on a Dell XPS 13 (2017/i7 7th gen) and I can tell you that the XPS is a beast of a laptop. It has an amazing battery life (lasts 8-12 hours on a full charge) and is quite lightweight and portable.

However, I don't think you should buy it for the sole purpose of installing Kali Linux on it because that would be a good waste. You can probably find something cheaper that has the same (or better) specs than the XPS 13.

Money isnt a issue and the reason I want it is also for school to take with me. But also want it for coding and Kali etc
Two people at my workplace have XPS laptops. They have excellent Linux support so yes, I would recommend that you purchase one. It seems ideal for school purposes since you mentioned that it was one of your use cases.
If money is no issue then go for it
