      Dell XPS M1530

      By Gordon Mah Ung

      Review summary: We wondered if Dell was making a passive-aggressive statement when it shipped us its new XPS M1530 in flamingo pink. Perhaps the boys in Austin think the MacBook Pro is a bit effete, so the pink is fitting. Or perhaps someone on the reviews team just ...

      Pros: Feature-packed and full of muscle ; beautiful screen ; built-in EVDO

      Cons: We don't really like the finish, aesthetically ; some weird usability choices ; some bloatware remains

      Verdict: A notebook configured for media handling, the XPS sports an SD/Memory Stick reader, S-Video, VGA, and HDMI outputs. There are also two headphones jacks. Why? It's simple parent math: Two kids + two headphones + one Pixar movie = two hours of rest on ...

      Review summary: Form and function meet in the middle in one supremely well-made package

      Verdict: While the M2010 was remarkable, it wasn't until the arrival of the M1330 last year that the XPS range found its true identity. It was, and still is, the finest-looking laptop Dell has ever produced, so it's no disappointment to find that the M1530 ...

      Dell XPS M1530

      By Aditya Nag

      Review summary: An eye-catching laptop with good features

      Verdict: The Dell XPS M1330 was a fantastic machine, and now we have with us its larger sibling, the XPS M1530. This looks exactly like the M1330, except that it's larger in every dimension. The 15.4 inch screen is housed in a very good looking chassis, ...
