Dell unveiled Adamo XPS notebook and Alienware M11x gaming machine

Dell unveiled here last week a collection of new products led by the Adamo XPS notebook billed as the world’s thinnest notebook and the Alienware M11x gaming machine that is truly a game-changer in more ways than one.

Groundbreaking design and mobility are the encompassing themes that dictated the looks and features of the new Dell Adamo XPS and Alienware M11x.

The Adamo XPS pushes the envelope of design and calls itself an engineering marvel because it’s only a 9.99-mm thin notebook that packs everything in. Under the Adamo XPS hood is an Intel Core 2 Duo ULV (ultra-low voltage) (1.4GHz) processor, an Intel integrated graphics card, a 4GB DDr3-800MHz memory card, and a 128GB thin micro solid state drive that is faster, cooler, quieter and more durable than standard hard drives.

The Adamo XPS has a 13.4-inch HD WLED display where the keyboard bolts into when the notebook is closed or folded. It also has a unique capacitive latching device that requires just a slight swipe of a finger or wrist to open.

Adding to the beauty of the Adamo XPS are its metal keycaps, diamond cut-engraved Adamo branding, and flared side-port details and aluminum accents. The Adamo XPS weighs at least 3.2 lbs and is targeted for sophisticated notebook users.

An unprecedented amount of horsepower in a small form factor also characterizes the new Alienware M11x, Dell’s most powerful 11-inch laptop to date. First unveiled during the recent Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the Alienware M11x is proof of a successful collaboration resulting from Dell’s acquisition of Alienware.

Albeit its small size, the Dell Alienware M11x packs a lot of punch because of these specs: up to Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300 (1.3GHz, 800 MHz, 3MB) processor, 1GB GDDR3 NVIDIA GeForce GT 335M graphics, up to 8GB DDR3 1066MHz memory, up to 500GB 7200 RPM or 256GB SSD hard drive, and over 6,100 3Dmark 06 score. Noteworthy, too, is its 8.5 hours of battery life.

Local pricing for the new Adamo XPS and Alienware M11X are yet to be announced. However, their predecessor, the Adamo 13 retails for P139,999, while the Alienware M15x and Alienware M17x sell for P167,500 and P174,500,
