Dirt cheap and good looking
Dell's Singapore branch has unveiled a good looking CULV ultraportable at a very affordable price tag.
The Vostro V13 is styled after the ultra thin and ultra expensive Dell
Adamo Thirteen and based on Intel's CULV platform. However, unlike the
Adamo, the V13 will not burn a hole in your wallet, as prices start at
$450, which sounds quite sensible, cheap even.
The V13 is just 16.5mm (0.65 inches) thick and weighs around 1.5kg, or
3.5lbs. We've seen lighter CULV models, but few if any are as thin as
the V13.
Dell will offer a range of CPUs with the V13, starting with the 1.2GHz
Celeron 743, through the SU3500 single-core and SU7300 dual-core. Like
most CULVs, it's stuck with Intel's X4500MHD graphics, but most people
don't need anything better in this market segment.
Mind you, we left the best for last. It has a matte screen, none of that glare nonsense, making it one of few CULV notebooks with a proper screen you can actually use outside.
