There are many laptops are in the market and especially the thinner ones are the mainly sold notebooks these days which are also known as ultrabooks. In this coming winter people have wide variety to choose from here in Asia, for example all the brands had introduced many ultrabooks and they are still doing that so people have more options to choose. The ultrabooks are light weight as well as they last long so if you had a notebook which last for 6 or 7 hours easily then you don’t have to remain around the power socket but choosing the right one is not an easy job without doing proper homework before going into the market for deal. The gaming notebooks are power hungry but they perform very well and the people who likes performance and mobility + gaming will definitely go for gaming notebooks. The balance between the need and budget is not a hard thing to do these days as you can ask experts and take their opinions to make perfect decisions. Today we are going to review a notebook from Dell, its Dell Precision M4800.
The Dell Precision M4800 is a 15.6-inch notebook so obviously it comes with separate numpad as well. The keys are not much different than its predecessor. The key size is perfect and the Sharpe edged keys with backlights as well to support the user in the dark. The Dell Precision M4800 is a good notebook regarding its responsive keyboard with nice pressure points and good feedback of keyboard keys. The additional function keys are also available for the users. The touchpad has separate click buttons on top and bottom side of itself. The touchpad is not larger but it’s not too small as well. The touchpad work good in our test but in the multi-gesture test, it works nice but the size of touchpad is not ideal for multi-gesture operations. Overall Dell Precision M4800 has good keyboard and touchpad.
The Dell Precision M4800 has stereo speakers which are located above the keyboard. The speakers produce pretty good loud sound. The sound quality is good and sound include pretty decent base as well. The sound of the speakers is pretty good as notebook speakers. The external speakers are always the best option but as notebook speakers, Dell Precision M4800 has good notebook speakers.

The noise of the two fan remain low in the gaming, anti-virus scanning, web surfing + HD movie etc. except benchmarks tests in which the noise was high and distraction but expected users of this notebook e.g. graphics professionals may experience this scenario but for normal user. Overall Dell Precision M4800 remain cool but not quiet.
