Review: The Dell XPS 15 (2011)

April 13th, 2011 posted by admin

Dells new XPS 15 should be seen as a totally redesigned notebook with great multimedia capabilities. This bad boy has a JBL sound system coupled with a subwoofer, a fast processor the Intel Core i5, dedicated graphics in the form of NVIDA GT 420 M, and is built with entertainment and performance in mind.This new laptop has a frame, both top and bottom, that is aluminum based. This makes it a lot sturdier since most laptop base are covered with plastic. It is somewhat thicker than its competition and comes in at a weight of about 6.6 pounds.

The screen is what you will find on base model laptops but Dell offers a screen option called the RGB LED which should suit those of you who must have better resolution.

There has been a modification to the keyboard as it is a Chiclet style with the keys slightly elevated which make the typing experience fun. There is also LED backlight right under each key so in areas that are not well lit this laptop will be a standout. The mouse pad is very responsive even the space is small.

There are 3 USB ports so you can use an adapter to use your r4 card. There is also a HD webcam, a DisplayPort, and a HDMI. With the webcam you will be able to shoot video in 720p and it is also certified by Skype, meaning video chat is done in high definition. You can get a Blu-ray drive if you like and there is a hard drive of 750Gb.

The XPS 15 has the usual WiFi capabilities along with Bluetooth and WiMax. It also has a reasonably good 6 hour battery life.
