Dell XPS M1330 Notebook - Customizable

By Carla Thornton

If cutting-edge tech is what you're after, consider the Dell XPS M1330, which performed near the top of its class. Our sub-5-pound test unit came with an extra-cost red lid, an optional LED-backlit display, and integrated mobile broadband. All of ...

Thin, wedge shape ; Slot-fed optical drive

A little pricey ; No modem and only two USB ports

The M1330 is available in black for $50 less than the Crimson Red version we tested. But if you want a thin and light notebook that makes a visual impression as strong as its performance, the flashy color will do the trick

Even with the brightness cranked up, however, the 0.87-inch-thick screen was not as bright as the LED-backlit screens of other notebooks I've tested (such as the Toshiba Portege R400-S4931, Asus U1F, and Fujitsu LifeBook P7230), which enjoy a...

Dell XPS M1330 User Review

By chuck232

The current star of Dell's XPS notebook line has been welcomed with much fanfare and excitement. So many customers are placing orders for the new XPS M1330 that Dell is having a hard time keeping up with production. One new M1330 owner gives us his ...

Fantastic design, Premium materials, Great battery life, Gorgeous display (brightness, viewing angles), Extras included (sleeve, earbuds, remote), Price is lower than comparable models

Fit and finish issues, Only two USB ports, A bit deeper in dimension than similar 13.3" laptops, Very loud insert and eject mechanism for the disc drive, The wait

Aside from the XPS M140, which I never considered part of the XPS family (rebranded Inspiron 630m), the XPS M1330 is the first XPS not to focus on gaming performance. That includes:Windows Vista Home PremiumMicrosoft Works 8.5Dell MediaDirectDell...

Attractive design, Solid build quality, Excellent performance, LED backlit display is amazing, Good built-in camera ... even the VGA unit, Nice keyboard, Attractive design (Yes, we said it twice.)

4.5 pounds with 9-cell battery, Gets a little too warm particularly on palm rests, Touch sensative media buttons don't work very well, Slot-loading drive is a little loud

With a design that is second to none in its price range and excellent performance the Dell XPS M1330 is sure to be one of the most popular notebooks of 2007.

The Dell XPS M1330 is designed for those that want power on the go. Keyboard and TouchpadThe keyboard on the XPS M1330 is fairly similar to the older XPS M1210, though it does feel more spread out with larger keys so overall the keyboard is...

Dell XPS M1330

By Cisco Cheng

Award: Editor's Choice!

The Dell XPS M1330 is the sum total of everything that's cutting-edge in the ultraportable market.

Sleek chassis, thanks to the design overhaul. Integrated optical drive. Discrete graphics. Terrific performance. Great battery life. Video editor's hard drive. EV-DO Rev A option. Various colors to choose from.

HDMI-Out but no Blu-ray option. Nine-cell battery can turn it into a mainstream-weight laptop.

The M1330 takes all the wonderful things from other ultraportables to create an ideal traveling companion.

The Dell XPS M1330 ($2,200 direct) is both refreshing and really quite amazing once you factor in both design and performance. I suspect Dell will integrate HDMI-out ports across all of its XPS laptops, and it's been added to the M1330 merely for...

Dell XPS M1330

By Rory Reid

Award: Editor's Choice!

The XPS M1330 is putting an end to Dell's reputation as a faceless corporate PC manufacturer -- it comes in three funky colours and the company claims it's the thinnest laptop in the world. Prepare to be smitten...

Choice of colours ; design ; specs ; fingerprint reader doubles as application launcher

Can be quite pricey depending on specification

The M1330 is a great improvement on the XPS M1210. It looks nicer, uses more modern components and should make you the envy of your laptop-owning friends

We're huge fans of the XPS 710 H2C, we love the enormous XPS M2010, and now we're about to go doolally for the new XPS M1330. Dell has done a lot to make the M1330 look sleeker than its predecessor, the XPS M1210. Features The XPS range is all...

Dell XPS M1330 review

By Will Head

If you're after a small laptop, but are willing to sacrifice slightly on portability to get better performance and a larger screen, then the Dell XPS M1330 is a great laptop.

If you're after a small laptop, but are willing to sacrifice slightly on portability to get better performance and a larger screen, then the Dell XPS M1330 is a great option. With an asking price under £800 it also represents good value for money too.

Dell XPS M1330

In a world of vampy Vaios and mouthwatering MacBooks, Dell has often been derided for dull design. Could the M1330's slight frame but heavyweight specs change that?

Attractive and lightweight. Bright screen

Touch-sensitive buttons are difficult to use. Slot-loading drive is noisy
