Dell Inspiron DUO Notebook Battery

At this price it's somewhat surprising to see that the 510S is a well-made machine with some premium details such as a metal keyboard and screen surround and a backlit keyboard. The outside, meanwhile, is made of tough, pearlescent white plastic. It’s also available in a silver or a red exterior with black interior.The overall vibe is one of minimalism, with little adorning the inside or outside, save the shiny, embossed Lenovo logo.This is a fairly thin and light laptop but, at 19.3mm thick and weighing from 1.7kg, it’s still a clear step up in bulk over your classic Ultrabook – the MacBook Air or Asus Zenbook, for example.However, with that extra size comes extra features. In terms of connections you get three USB 3.0 ports, an SD card reader, a headphone jack as well as a full-size HDMI output and an Ethernet network port. The latter two are particularly useful additions that mean you won’t need any adapters or dongles to get this machine hooked up to a network or monitor/projector – unlike most Ultrabooks.

Inside you'll find a fairly typical selection of features for a thin and light laptop. Depending on how much you spend you’ll get an Intel Core i3-6100U, Core i5-6267U or Core i7-6567U with either a 128GB or 256GB Sata III SSD. The latter is one area where this laptop will clearly trail its more premium sibling the 710S, which includes a faster PCI Express-based SSD.Alongside those processors sit a range of Intel integrated graphics, with those same chips including Intel Graphics HD 520 or 550 graphics processors. That may not sound like much of a difference, but the 550 chip includes a small amount of dedicated graphics RAM that makes it surprisingly capable and thus opens up the potential for 3D gaming at low settings. That's not the case with the Ideapad 510S on here, however.

Lenovo also states on its website that there’s a version of this laptop with AMD graphics, but no such options are on sale at the time of writing.Otherwise, the rest of the components are standard across the range. There's 8GB of RAM, 802.11ac W-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, stereo speakers, a webcam and a 14-inch 1,920 x 1,080 screen.The 510S benefits from an excellent keyboard that features large, well-spaced keys that are arranged in an ideal fashion – there's little in the way of bunched up or squashed keys as seen on some laptops. The "\" and "#" keys are slightly wedged in, but not to the extent that it affected my ability to type at speed.

Even better, the final version of this machine will actually ship with a pair of current-generation Nvidia GPUs, so expect even more power with, potentially. Considering the numbers I’ve seen so far from the GX800 with last-generation GPUs, I can’t even begin to imagine the framerates on the final-spec version. It’s a mouth-watering prospect. The CPU is obviously desktop-level powerful (it's well beyond an overclocked Core i5-6600K desktop chip), but it’s the GPUs where things got crazy. I can’t give specific numbers due to the prototype nature of this machine, but two water-cooled desktop graphics processors are about as fast as you’d expect. I’ve never reviewed a PC – desktop or laptop – that runs games faster.Oh, and let’s not forget the ridiculous combination of three top-of-the-line 512GB Samsung SM951 NVMe SSDs running in RAID 0 (the three drives are mirrored for peak performance) running custom firmware built for the job at hand. The speeds achieved here are, again, blistering.

Without its dock, the GX800 weighs 5.7kg. No worries, though: Asus supplies a travel bag and a wheelie case for it and the dock, so all you have to worry about at LAN parties is the machine being surrounded by amazed onlookers.You get a desktop-level number of ports around the outside of the GX800. There are three full-size USB 3 ports, two further USB 3.1 Type-C ports (one of which is Thunderbolt 3 compatible), a Mini DisplayPort 1.4 jack, an HDMI 2.0 port, separate 3.5mm jacks for headphones and a microphone, an SD card reader, a gigabit Ethernet port and an extra dedicated port for an optional external Wi-Fi aerial.The screen takes the form of an 18.4-inch IPS panel. On my sample it was a Full HD screen, but in the final build this will be an Ultra HD 3,840 x 2,160 panel. This is one of those rare occasions where a laptop’s graphics hardware will be capable of driving a 4K screen. It's ready for G-Sync, too: This is actually quite important because the ludicrous levels of performance means the GX800 will likely exceed the refresh rate of the screen on a regular basis, and G-Sync will keep it in line to prevent screen tearing.

Touch-typists will appreciate the nicely defined key action, making it easy to determine when a key is pressed. Plus, the keyboard is backlit, so it’s simple to type accurately even in dark environments. The backlight can be turned off completely if you prefer – it will save a smidge of battery life – and there are two brightness levels.The touchpad isn’t quite so impressive, but still largely gets the job done. It’s a decent size and has accurate tracking alongside a click-anywhere, single-button action. However, the pad surface is metal rather than the etched glass of the best I’ve used, and as a result it just isn’t quite as smooth and effortless to glide across.

For a machine costing just £450, it’s great to see the screen on the 80TK002VUK version of the 510S uses IPS LCD technology. This ensures it benefits from far better viewing angles than cheaper TN panels, as well as more accurate colours and better black levels.This is evident the moment you fire up the machine: the screen looks crisp and colourful, with a real depth to blacks. It’s also good to see a matte anti-glare coating in use to keep reflections at bay.With a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 on a relatively small 14in screen, Lenovo has chosen to ship the 510S with the Windows scaling option set to 150% so that text and icons appear larger and more readable. However, you could just about get away with running it at native resolution if you have sharp eyesight – and if you do then it will mean that you end up with far more desktop space.

In general use this is a reasonably nippy machine, despite it being the cheapest option that we’re reviewing. It boots and loads programs quickly and has no problems with general desktop work. This is in contrast to machines that use Intel’s Core M chips, which can be overwhelmed even by fairly modest workloads. The upshot of a Core M, though, is ridiculously low power consumption and massively elevated battery life as a result.That said, if you want to get some serious work done then we'd advise upgrading to either the i5-6267U or 6567U versions. This is reflected in our Geebench 3 benchmark, where this chip scored 2,265 in the single-core test and 5,173 in the multi-core test. In comparison, the 6565U-equipped Lenovo Ideapad 710S scores 3,297 and 7,019 respectively. The i5 model is a £150 increase in price, though, so it's not to be sniffed at.

Slightly muddying the performance waters is the SSD, since it actually has faster write performance than that of the 710S and as a result will be slightly quicker when transferring files to the laptop. However, it's read performance that matters for a general snappy feel, and while the 510S scores a perfectly solid 499MB/sec, the 710S hits 1,290MB/sec.128GB isn't huge, and with a few programs and files on board you won't have much left. This is a problem if you don't store your files in the cloud. If you've already embraced the likes of Google Drive of OneDrive, then it shouldn't be such an issue.The faster CPU of that machine contributes to the overall snappier experience, and is reflected in the PCMark 8 score of 2,127 for the 510S and 2,865 for the 710S.

Further cementing the point about this particular CPU option being a more entry-level choice is the 3DMark benchmark that indicates 3D gaming performance. In the Ice Storm test, the 510S scored 287 points while the 710S scored 1,319.Nonetheless, the picture is quite clear – this is a perfectly capable machine for day-to-day use, and the options are present if you want to go for the more powerful CPU.What’s more, this machine seriously impresses when it comes to battery life. The combination of fairly low-power components and a large chassis result in a laptop that lasted for more than 10 hours in We set brightness to 40% and ran a loop of 10 minutes' browsing the web and 5 minutes of watching video and it managed 10hrs 12mins. That’s well up there with the longest-lasting laptops you can buy, and outperforms plenty of other thin and light devices. The 710S managed 8hrs 37mins in the same test.

This is a great laptop for those wanting a machine that’s reasonably thin and light but want a slightly larger screen and don’t want to compromise on key features such as a wired network connection and full-size HDMI port.At £450, this entry-level model is an excellent choice for those just wanting enough performance for general day-to-day computing, especially since it doesn’t compromise on the screen, keyboard, trackpad quality or battery life.If you want a more powerful machine, however, then the Core i7-6567U-equipped 80TK001BUK version is still a reasonable at £650. The 80TK001AUK model offers perhaps the best bang for buck with its still powerful Core i5-6267U processor and 256GB SSD coming in at £600.If you think £450 is a lot for a Core i3-powered laptop, bear in mind that many of the other models you'll find online do not have SSDs and instead have 1TB hard disks. These will feel substantially slower in day-to-day use so if you have the extra cash for a laptop with an SSD, it's worth it.

If you weren’t able to get your hands on the £3,500 Asus ROG GX700 earlier this year, fear not, you’ve now got another opportunity to splash some cash on a piece of gaming history thanks to the arrival of the spiffy new GX800. Asus does not care one bit that probably fewer than a dozen people will buy the thing, it just wants to prove that it can be done.But why is it so crazy? I’ve been given exclusive access to a prototype model of the GX800, and while I can’t go into any specific numbers I can tell you that I believe it’s the fastest laptop ever built, both graphically and in terms of processor performance.Asus has pulled out all the stops to make the GX800 a showpiece gaming machine. The first thing you’ll notice about the ROG GX800 is its enormous footprint. That’s because, like the GX700, it’s a laptop that connects to a separate liquid-cooling dock. They connect together securely and let the GX800 achieve some absolutely ridiculous overclocking. But what is there to overclock? First, there’s a quad-core Intel Core i7-6820HK that would usually have a maximum frequency of 3.6GHz. Here it’s been unlocked to allow it to get to 4.4GHz and beyond.

Last time around, it was only the (single) GPU that received liquid coolant; the CPU had to make do with its own air cooling. This was fine, but it meant it could only get up to a maximum overclock of 4GHz.Overclocking the upgraded GX800 to 4.4GHz requires a bit of effort on the part of the user; the maximum automatic overclock is a more reasonable 4.2GHz. Manually overclocking also requires a system restart, so if you’re going to use the laptop docked and undocked, you will probably want to keep the GX800 set to the Extreme preset.An enormous 64GB of DDR4 RAM backs up the GX800's i7 alongside not one, but two Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 graphics cards. These are full desktop chips running in Nvidia SLI, providing performance not seen on a laptop before.
