Green Dell Studio 1535
Overall the green Dell Studio 1535 colored laptop is an impressively powerful machine able to do some fairly heavy gaming, and yet it can still be bought for at a relatively inexpensive price.
This model comes in a cool green color which tends to stand out nicely but still remains on the conservative side of colored laptops. For versatility purposes this shade of green seems to work great in classroom settings just as well as it works in business and professional environments.
The green colored laptop we are using for this review is powered by the 2.0GHz Super Fast Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 800Mhz with a big 2MB of L2 cache which adds to the overall speed of this computer. Along with this is 3GB of PC2 DDR2 667 MHz system memory making it basically an off the shelf type of configuration.
We found that the Super Fast ATI Radeon HD 3450 video card with 256MB of memory of its own fares quite well while playing Call of Duty 4. Gaming laptops on the more affordable side have come a long way in recent times. The LCD screen is a typical 15.4 inch Wide XGA+ which will run at a maximum resolution of 1280 x 800.
The graphics are quite vivid on the gloss-like screen design and it is well suited to both games and watching movies on this laptop. The sound is somewhat better than average with the Sigmatel 9205 Onboard Sound for basic audio applications. It is always interesting how laptop manufactures attempt to get high quality audio out of their designs and we have found that when they do actually focus on this it can get fairly decent.
On the 250GB SATA hard drive is Microsoft Windows Vista Home with Premium Service Pack 1 installed. Once again a typical off the shelf configuration which provides for more than adequate storage room for movies, pictures, iTunes, data files, etc.
Additional features found on the green Dell Studio 1535 laptop review include:
- Broadcom 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet adapter

Weighing in at just 6.1 pounds, this mid-sized or basically standard portable laptop offers some surprisingly powerful graphic capabilities for a somewhat “budget” laptop computer. All around a good laptop design capable of doing some high end tasks and it moves around quickly and responsively.
The Dell Studio 1535 can take a maximum of 4GB of memory. This is a great feature which most current newer laptop models do offer. All the extra memory (RAM) makes it quite easy to install heavy duty audio, video, and overall graphics intensive applications and run them wherever you may be on your laptop computer.
These laptops offer an awesome selection of colored laptops including: red, blue, orange, green, purple, and pink.
