Dell Precision M6400 Covet Review
By business laptop
The Precision M6400 is one of the most expensive laptop ever built by Dell. Of course, as expected with its price, its features would be grandeur. As the common saying goes, “quality comes with a high price.”
First of all, the Dell’s Precision M6400 is ISV-certified business laptop. This is because the said notebook has undergone extreme tests for durability and sustainability when utilized heavily by the users. Even in running software applications, this can run multiple windows – may it be for word processing, web browsing, or for engineering designs.
These capabilities are made possible with the 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Extreme Quad Core QX9300 mobile processor which is working with a monstrous 8GB of DDR3 RAM. Moreover, it has a 7,200rpm 320GB Western Digital hard disk. With this incorporated hardware, this laptop might be the fastest notebook in the world today.
This speedy business laptop comes with the nVidia Quadro FX 3700M with 1GB of memory that is running with the 17-inch WUXGA screen display. The LED-backlit screen has a resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 pixels. These features have added to the clarity of display even with moving graphics or images.
Meanwhile, the chassis of the Precision M6400 Covet is covered with an aluminum jacket coated with a unique color – the blood orange. This chassis is considered to be strong and tough as it can give full stability with no shaking and no rattling kind of movement you could experience, so to speak. But because of its philosophy in maintaining sturdiness, it weighs at around 9.55lbs. Even so, this is still a portable notebook taking into account its rigid body which can withstand almost all the impacts it can possibly experience. Just don’t mess about this thing using a monster truck.
For other functionalities, its keyboard is well-built and well-designed. The keycaps are built firm and the spacing is perfect for comfort typing. Furthermore, the keys have backlight. The touchpad that comes with the sensitive and smooth surface is a good back-up for the trackpoint.
In general, this road warrior, working beast, and fast-running business laptop is a well-architected notebook. There are almost no issues that are to be raised when it comes to loophole-hunting. With connections, extra ports, and other smart and high-tech features, this laptop can raise its way to the top if we don’t mind the price and its weight. These two factors might be essential though, but try to look again at the safety, comfort, and style features, and you can just say no to this monstrous mobile computing machine.
