Dell Studio 1537 Review

The first time we laid eyes on the Dell Studio 1537, we couldn’t help but get interested and want to know more about it. Smooth. Sleek. Striking. This laptop is a thing of beauty. It’s as if an artist was commissioned to create it. Every nook and cranny fits and contributes to the whole design.

The Dell Studio 1537 battery is a sight for sore eyes, with our model coming with a red lid to round out its overall smooth appearance. It also comes with some decent firepower behind that standard Studio beauty, packing a latest generation Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26 GHz to go along with 4GB RAM, a 320GB HDD and a dedicated 256MB ATI Radeon HD 3450 GPU. When you consider that you can get all this for a cost that won’t exceed three digits, the Studio looks like a solid value.

The monitor is 15.4″ at 1280×800 with LED backlight. The first impression is excellent, since it is very bright and with vivid colors, better than most laptops at this price point. But when compared to my HP ProBook 4510s battery, contrast and vieving angles are not so good. Viewing angles are better than in other laptops I have used. As I do not make a professional use of color, I cannot tell about the colour gamut, but I have raised a bit the red level in the Catalyst Control Panel since the skin colour in pictures seems too dull. The glossy surface of the screen is not annoying to work if there is no light behind you, but if there is a window or similar, the reflection can be distracting. In the dark scenes of films and games the reflection is more noticeable, even without light from behind. Outdoors, even with the brightness to the maximum and working with clear background, the reflection of myself in a sunny winter day is too visible. It is possible to work, but it is annoying.

It is very difficult that pictures of the screen reflect what the eyes see, but here you have some images: the first is quite blurry, but it was made with low light and can help to get an idea of how the colours and brightness are; the second is less faithful to the reality, but you can see that the contrast and color are not as good as in my usual monitor, an HP L2245w.

The battery for Dell Studio 1537 can be best described as a multi-media laptop. Powerful, long battery life, and a great designed machine. A laptop with over 200+ customizable patterns for your notebook design. After using the machine for about a month, it’s been a powerful and reliable machine. Supporting almost all new media from blu-ray with packed surround sound and it’s gorgeous 15.4 HD Led display which makes your video look lifelike. The machine has its flaws and its great pros…

The green Dell Studio 1537 used for this laptop review has an impressive 4 GB of DDR2 memory installed, which is the maximum this model will take, and is fully capable of playing high level games as well as watching DVD movies on pure battery power. We hooked up the laptop to a home theater system (nice audio and a HUGE plasma TV via the laptops HDMI connector) and were impressed with the overall performance of this color laptop. We found that the battery life is greatly improved and highly recommend the 9-cell instead of the 6-cell Studio 1537 battery.
