Maximize Dell xps m1530 laptop battery performance tips
Dell XPS M1530 performed as expected, closely matching the performance of the similarly configured HP Pavilion dv6500t. Dell M1530 notebook, like the XPS M1330 before it, is slightly wedge-shaped, going from 1.2 inches in the front to 1.5 inches in the rear. At a hair under 6 pounds, it’s a bit lighter than most 15-inch laptops we’ve seen, and the overall look is slim and attractive. XPS M1530 is available with two battery options, and we tested both the 6-cell and 9-cell versions. While the 6-cell fits flush with the system and ran for 2 hours and 9 minutes on our DVD battery drain test, the 9-cell battery ran for 3 hours and 22 minutes on the same test. The catch is that the 9-cell battery is positively gigantic, raising the rear of the laptop from 1.5 inches to 2.2 inches.
