Office tiger. The top version of Dell’s brand new Vostro generation not only hunts for customers with a strong Sandy Bridge processor, but also a powerful graphics card. AMD’s Radeon HD 6630M arouses a craving for multimedia. What else the matt 15 incher is capable of can be read here.
CASE
The user is offered quite a bit. The Vostro 3550’s design is elegant and stylish at the same time. While the keyboard area, the display bezel and a part of the bottom is made in a subtle black, the other areas gleam either in red, bronze or silver – as the customer prefers.
All surfaces are insensitive and smudge resistant due to the matt finish. You neither have to worry about scratches nor fingerprints. The test device was unfortunately not absolutely perfect in terms of workmanship. Many parts didn’t close flush. The case stability also disappointed us a bit. Both the laptop lid and the drive’s vicinity could evidently be dented, respectively bent.
The critique is continued with the hinges. Although the lid can be opened with one hand, the slightest vibration of the base unit causes the display to wobble. The case can regain some ground with its fairly low weight (about 2.5 kg), so carrying it around is no problem. The dimensions of 375x260x35mm are also typical for a 15 inch device.
