The DELL VOSTRO 3750 is a replacement laptop to the normal desktops. It boasts of a 17.3 inch display and a sturdy frame. Here is a review of the DELL VOSTRO 3750.

Design and Features of DELL VOSTRO 3750

The 3750 by DELL has a very similar design to that of VI30 except that it isn’t slim or portable. The body is sturdy and built well but the lid has too much flex and hence you can clearly see it contorting. For connectivity there are four USB ports that include two USB 3.0 ports. There is also a DVD reader and writer, a HDMI port, a VGI port and a card reader. You also have the Express card slot and microphone and headphone jack.

Once you open up the lid, you have the full-sized chic keyboard that has been spaced out very well which makes it comfortable for users that sit through long typing sessions. There is also a finger print scanner that can be used for security. You also have the power button along with three shortcut buttons for quick settings, DELL support center and one for customizing it to open any application of your choice.

This notebook is powered by Intel’s core 2630 that runs at 2 GHz and can turbo up to 2.9 GHz. It is powered by Intel i5/i7 processor and therefore doesn’t shy away from number crunching. It features a 6 GB RAM, 750 GB hard-drive and Nvidia’s GT 525M GPU with Optimus technology.

Connectivity is featured by Bluetooth 3.0, Wi-Fi n and Gigabit Ethernet. The DELL VOSTRO 3750 also supports the Intel WiDi technology and hence you can clone your computer into a TV wirelessly.

DELL VOSTRO 3750 supports a 1600 X 900 resolution and hence you play most of the DX10 games at the native resolution with a mix of medium to high display settings.

The VOSTRO 3750 really makes a good desktop replacement thanks to the full-sized comfortable keyboard. The keys offer a good feedback and are well spaced out and hence you are less likely to accidently hit the wrong key. However the track pad isn’t very impressive.

The battery lifetime lasts for an hr with Battery Eater Pro. For regular use with the Power Save mode, you can easily get up to 2-2.5 hrs of battery life. Unlike the smaller sized VOSTRO notebooks, this one comes with a removable battery and you can choose between a 6-cell and a 9-cell battery.

Overall this notebook performs well and does not cost you a bomb, which is surprising for a high-end notebook. It is a good option for someone who is looking for a desktop replacement with good productivity and functional multimedia features.
