Dell Studio 17 Laptop Review

Okay it isn’t a beauty queen but it isn’t exactly the ugly duckling and for sure it is miles better then the Inspiron series, this laptop sits in between the Inspiron and XPS series. Not is it just an improvement but there are also a number of options. It is available in seven colours and four different trims. The power button is on the right side of the hinge and on the left there is a Wi-Fi catcher, which once pressed will launch a screen showing any available wireless networks - now isn’t that just a handy dandy.

Yes there seems to have been an improvement from the Inspiron series but there seems to be a loss. It seems Dell have forgotten their sexy XPS series and have decided to give this laptop a chunky keyboard, a spongy lid that feels cheap and doesn’t come with the aluminium wrist rest that the XPS series has.

Dell Studio 17 - The Full Range

Maybe its design is lacking style but it does come packed with quiet a lot. Dell just might have been to busy packing everything into the computer to finish off the design but unfortunately we’ll never know. It has a DVD drive, D-sub and HDMI video output, five USB ports and a fingerprint reader, which saves you time having to write in your password every time you want to log in.
