DELL XPS L702X Laptop Review
The Dell XPS L702x 17" Laptop is a highly functional device that teems with brilliant features, with an emphasis on power and performance.

A robust 5 hour Dell XPS L702X battery life and a compact design suitable for use on the go puts the DELL XPS L702x 17" Touch Screen Laptop in a class of its own.
Specifications:
Every Dell XPS L702X computer below is a Laptop style computer which means it is portable and has a monitor, keyboard and mouse pad built in. Laptops are also sometimes called Notebooks. Each Dell XPS L702X Laptop computer has been given an overall PC Checker score based on the components it is built with so even if you know nothing about computers you can see our overall grade for each Dell XPS L702X AC adapter.
The high emission rates are the XPS L702X's greatest shortcomings, just like in the previous model. The case fan whirrs very audibly, and likely already annoying for some users, during high load. To fully indulge into a game you either need a high speaker level or even better a headset. The 17 incher works a lot quieter in less resource demanding tasks, such as office or Internet. However, the fan's behavior gives reason for complaint.
Dell's sometimes-confusing array of in-house consumer brands has been thankfully whittled down to three, and there's a clear enough delineation between them to make choosing a Dell laptop (or at least a starting point) a simple equation. Dell's XPS L702X 3D is for those who want a powerful media and gaming 17-inch laptop, but in a more aesthetically upscale package than offered by Dell's Alienware brand.
A feature that may position the Dell XPS as an alternative to the one with the glowing Apple logo is the use of aluminium finishing. This is more so with the top of the lid and the bezel around the keyboard area. As well. it is a well-built computer with a sense of quality in the manufacture of the unit. Side vent grille helps keep the laptop computer running cool. This machine doesn’t get too hot too easily through normal use. It has been brought about through a Dell XPS L702X battery that has a flange that places the computer on a slight angle, a large vent on the left side as well as some venting at the bottom of the unit.
Now I suppose I should probably talk about the performance then. I chose the i5-2510m (2.3-2.9 GHz) + 4GB ram (I imaging most people chose the i7). I didn't really need the quad core so there wasn't much point spending extra on it. I haven't been running any demanding photo editing software, but it's coped well with everything i've done so far. I opened up about 10 random programmes at once, and it mannaged to finish in around 20 seconds.
It’s growing on me, but i think it could be better. I like the back light. Problem with the keyboard being a full keyboard is it means centre of the keyboard is off centre, which means i tend to have the laptop shifted out to my right. Given how much space there is I think Dell could have done better with keyboard options, such as offer a comfort curve option.
The graphics card does a decent jobs with games, achieving a framerate of 68fps in the FEAR tests at Maximum quality settings. The screen is also impressive, with a full-HD 1920 x 1080 resolution. Supported by a BD-ROM/DVD±RW combo drive the movie-watching experience offered by the Dell is first class.
With full resolution, there is no need to scale down resolution or remove information to fit the panels. And at 120 frames per second (FPS) (60 FPS right and left), a full resolution image (1920 x 1080 pixels each) is displayed at full frame rate in each eye. Active shutter technology gives you a wider viewing angle of Dell JWPHF battery, meaning you don’t need to be in a “sweet spot” to see the content in 3D. Compared to passive polarized technology, active shutter also has better image quality because of higher resolution and reduction in ghosting or doubled images.
The XPS L702X pre-installed with 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium. With the 64 bit OS installed, the OS will be able to recognise more than 4GB of system memory installed on the laptop. I would suggest that one uninstall all unecessary programmes from Dell. It also comes with Microsoft Office Starter 2010 and it is good enough for the average consumer.
The connection is not left with Display Port, HDMI, Wi-Fi, audio ports, Ethernet and 4 USB combo with 1 e-SATA and two USB 3.0 so file transfers are made up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 devices with USB 3.0. Finally, keep in mind with its size and weight, this Dell XPS L702X charger is still willing to use more sedentary nomad.
