  • Could you run dual 1440p monitors of this?

    • +2

      Yes, it has Thunderbolt 4.
      You can run dual 4k easy.

      • Thanks

  • 11th gen???? 1year 1gen?

  • also check wehther you can upgrade memory

    my read is NO

    • +3

      Looks like memory is soldered, SSD is removable.
      Would definitely go for 16gb model with 1tb ssd for ~ $300 extra.

    • +1

      You can ask dell ebay for custom listing (sort their listing by time: newly listed, you'll see many). So, ask for ram upgrade, it might work.

      • Custom listings are for warranty upgrades only; they wont make hardware changes

  • 1.6k for 16gb model with mx350 seems like good value ? anyone have nany thoughts?

    • at that price can maybe get a 1660 iirc

      • oh any model to look at in particular? suspect won't be 11th gen though

        • im not too knowledgeable on the topic but theres this current deal after a quick search:
          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/572965

          almost $1800 though. personally id avoid spending more than $1k on a laptop. ive had 2 gaming laptops and they both died rather quickly. if i had no choice, id be looking at a custom built gaming laptop (e.g. clevo)

          • @belongsinforums: why did ur gaming laptop die so quickly? did they overheat?

            I remember I had an Acer Aspire 1692WLMi or similar model and mine died within 1 year.

            • @Homr: yea i think overheating was the issue with both of them. my mx150 died within a few months. well, the mx150 is dead but luckily the onboard graphics still works. its one of the few times i think that an extended warranty would be worth it.

              • @belongsinforums: hrmm, maybe powerful CPU and lightweight does not mix for notebooks

      • This is crap for gaming, but it has great battery life and is very light.

    • +1

      yeah its a good business laptop, good keyboard

      the new processor is very power efficient

  • Still only 4 cores and 8 threads on 11th gen……

    • The multicore performance is roughly on par with the 4700U, so it's plenty fast there. Maybe not perfect if you're going to be throwing a lot of virtual machines on the laptop. Otherwise the GPU is the real winner here, Xe looks quite strong (how it compares to new Vega and ampere when they land, no idea)

  • +2

    isn't the mx350 only marginally better than the i7 11th gen? If so… what's the point of having the mx350 there :/

    • I was just thinking the same thing 🙄

    • I agree, Xe and the new Ryzen graphics have made garbage GPUs like this obsolete.

      • +1

        mx350 is miles better than 4000 series graphics

        only Xe matches it

        • Yeah, here is a video of MX350 vs 4700U and the MX350 is significantly faster in most games, though strangely the MX350 is only marginally faster in RDR2 and HZD.

          https://youtu.be/k-xoAg2EPk8

        • +1

          Not sure why you got downvoted, you are correct, the dedicated GPU gives better performance than both Vega and Xe graphics. I have not seen benchmarks that would say the Xe graphics match the MX350.

          • @klonky: because I cant say anything bad about AMD in this forum lol

            Xe comes close, shouldnt have said matches, but Xe is better than Vega now

    • +1

      Haha yeah they're basically the same. The only slight advantage I can see is if you were going to do very light CUDA tasks (like ML) or something that will cap out the system memory, so needed the extra 2gb dedicated? But yeah seems like an odd anti-costcutting choice

      • +1

        Yeah I'm puzzled by this as well because the dedicated card adds to power consumption, plus weight, plus system complexity and driver issues, as well as cost, for a very minor performance bump.

        I wonder if the CPU performance will be better with having the dedicated graphics card because of thermal capacity on the CPU/APU chip?

        I really would prefer the 16G and 1Tb from the higher end model without the dedicated graphics card as the weight is a worry for me. The add says from 1.25kgs which is marginally acceptable for me, but the actual specifications pdf buried on the dell site says 1.35kgs which is too heavy.

        Wish it had touchscreen too.. then it would be what I'm looking for.

        A recommendation for anyone buying this, Dell consumer line has crap quality control and I would recommend add +120 for 3 years warranty, or +180 for 4 years warranty. I don't usually do that but I wouldn't buy Dell consumer line without it after my experiences with a $3000 XPS 15 having sooo many problems, then doing the research about them and finding they are excruciatingly common with Dell consumer line.

    With the 11th Gen , there is also the Evo certified models - As a comparison - https://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/compare?ocs=hni5406n05au,hni…

    For a laptop to receive the Evo badge, it must have an 11th Gen Intel Core i5 or Core i7 CPU with Intel Xe integrated graphics. Also the laptop must hit these KEI targets (from Intel) as a minimum:
    • Consistent responsiveness on battery.
    • Wake from sleep in less than 1 second.
    • 9 or more hours of real-world battery life on laptops with a Full HD display.
    • 4 or more hours of battery life in a 30-minute charge on laptops with Full HD display.

    Laptops with the Evo brand must have Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, Thunderbolt 4 ports, and USB-C charging, which is a welcome change that should cut down on the various barrel and plug charging adapters. There are a number of other highlights laid out by Intel, including a minimum of 8GB dual-channel RAM, 256GB PCIe NVMe SSD, biometric login abilities (IR camera, fingerprint reader, Bluetooth proximity sensor), and optional Gigabit LTE connectivity.
    Devices need to be within the range from 12 to 15 inches, they'll have at least an FHD touch display, and fans will be excluded or sized less than 15mm. Narrow bezels are a must, as is a thin, light chassis. A front-facing 720p camera (at minimum) and high-quality speakers and tuning are also listed by Intel.
    Altogether there are a lot of features and specifications to keep track of, and that's no doubt why Intel is putting them all under one Evo badge. When you're shopping for the best Ultrabook and value what Intel encompasses here, it's far easier to look for Evo than to delve into spec sheets

    With 13 Ram is soldered though

    • Ohhhhhh is that what the Evo badge means! Huh that's actually really cool. FINALLY you can know when a laptop can be charged from USB C! Sick to death of the bloody PD lottery on if a laptop will charge.

  • I believe Evo badge also has Alexa built in and is Dolby Vision and Atmos certified too. Not sure whether all models though

    • That just seems like a grab bag of random specs and marketing VS the performance that actual professionals want.

      It's just like the Ultrabook label all over.

  • Enquired about getting the XE graphics model upgraded to 16gb. They replied and told me it's not possible as they are fixed configs. What's the mindhives thoughts on XE vs mx350?

    • The dedicated card adds to power consumption, plus weight, plus system complexity and driver issues, as well as cost, for a very minor performance bump.

      However if you want peak performance I wonder if the CPU performance will be better with having the dedicated graphics card because of thermal capacity on the CPU/APU chip? I'm very interested if anyone has found technical reviews measuring this effect?

  • Note this has a month shipping delay ..

  • Can anyone confirm what the HDD is, for the 512G or 1T models?

    There's no information on it in the specs pdfs buried on the Dell site, beyond PCIE 3X4. I kind of assume it's not a good one or they would mention the model but I don't know..

  • Thanks for sharing. Just bit the bullet and bought the top end spec one with MX350. Bit nervous about battery life as I could not find a single review across Reddit, the internet etc.

    Hopefully it's decent in quality and battery life.

    Just FYI for anyone thinking to buy it - Estimated delivery: 18 – 26 Nov

    • Hey mate, any changes in delivery time for you? Thinking about biting the bullet but also finding the lack of reviews annoying!

      • +1

        According to Dell order portal it was built and shipped Oct 26th, but haven't received any tracking information as yet.

        Estimated delivery date 9th November but presumably if its been shipped from Sydney then it should be a bit quicker. Hopefully next week.

        • How do you see it on the portal if you order thru eBay?

          • @BlinkyBill: They should have sent you an email with an order number. You can put that order number into the portal and it will give you a status update.

            • @ryban3z: All I got was an eBay order acknowledgment, no email from Dell direct

              • @BlinkyBill: I got an order confirmed from Dell Ebay Oct 17th (date I ordered it).

                Then order update from Dell Ebay Oct 24th - clicking the link takes you to ebay - if you click the "postage details" tab there is an Order Number. You can input that order number into Dell's order status portal - https://www.dell.com/support/order-status/en-au/order-suppor…

                I got another email from Dell Ebay Oct 25th saying it had been delayed. But then October 26th I checked the order status portal and it said it was complete and had been shipped.

                ETA November 11th.

  • The top end version (1TB SSD, MX350, i7-1165G7, 16B RAM) is on sale at Dell.com right now for 40% off - $1800 down from $3000. https://deals.dell.com/en-au/work/productdetail/5ysq

    This one seems to be in stock with Dell, so ships in 4-6 business days as opposed being built in factory and shipped (1 month plus wait time).
