Dell XPS M1330

We seem to have a contract with Dell at work, so I've been given several Dell laptops for my use. To be honest I liked the Fujitsu Siemens I had before much better than the last three Dells I was given, but I gave my last one back when I went on maternity leave. Having gone back to work part-time now, I have been issued with a new one. And it's this: the Dell XPS M1330. As soon as it arrived on my desk it was obvious that it wasn't just another boring Dell. It looks much much cooler than the older Dell models. It has a 13.3in display and only measures a slender 318 x 238 x 33.8mm (WxDxH) with a weight of 2kg . Dell claim that this is the thinnest notebook ...  Read the complete review

I got my Dell XPS M1330 for my birthday a year ago now, and unlike what would be the case with many Dell products, I am still typing on this laptop right now. The first thing I noticed about it when i opened the case was the stunning design work that has gone into it. It looks amazing i've got to say, so sleek and stylish. I went for the black option but you can get it in red too. It has a cool black finish with a silver outline and the Dell logo embossed in silver as well. It is slightly wedge shaped for a reason unknown to me where it is 0.87 inches on it's thinnest side, which is actually quite thin. The styling certainly doesn't disappoint when you open up the 13.3 ...  Read the complete review

Are you looking to buy a new laptop that is stylish and lightweight, yet packed with powerful specs? Then the Dell XPS M1330 might be what you have been looking for. It is considered as one of the lightest and slimmest laptop weighing at 2.1kg with the 6-cell battery, and comes in several colours (Tuxedo Black, Midnight Blue, and Crimson Red). As with all Dell, it is customisable to your needs and the starting price is at £486, but I would recommend you choosing the £704 option from Dell website which has better specs and is still considerably affordable. For this review, I will be focusing on my highly spec'ed XPS which has: Tuxedo black colour Intel ...  Read the complete review

The Dell XPS M1330 is the company's attempt at an ultra-portable laptop. Being a Mac fan, this was the obvious choice for me when choosing a PC latop, so I spent just over £900 with some options add to get one of these with an Intel Core2Duo T9300 2.5GHz processor. The processor is really rather fast and offers me a good enough turn of speed to use Photoshop and some high end applications. I opted to stick with Windows Vista Home Premium as this was a no cost option and offers all that I need. I am not even sure what benefits the Business edition would give, so saved some money here. You get 3GB of Dual Channel 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM as standard, so no ...  Read the complete review

I received my Dell M1330 pretty much a year ago, and I have to say that it has not all been smooth sailing... It came nicely packaged, and I have to say that it is very quick - mine has the 2.2ghz processor and 2 gb of ram, and that's all I've needed, even for gaming. Unfortunately, reliability has been a slight issue, with sound coming from the speakers often cracking up, the screen breaking two times etc. Dell have been very good with this and it's very easy to give them a call on their 24/7 XPS hotline. They come to my house to fix it, which is very useful and much easier than sending the laptop off to Dell, and usually the technicians are ...  Read the complete review
