its probably only the processor (core i7) and ddr3 ram.

its probably only the processor (core i7) and ddr3 ram.

Seems the changes are a bit more than that...

A new motherboard with new chipset (Intel PM55) off course.

Three USB ports, with no usb/e-sata combo. That's a bad suprise. Why would Dell downgrade the studio here?

Soon the option for a 1GB Ati hd 4570 (according to the manual).

HDD are standard 7200 rpm and not 5400 rpm!

HDMI 1.3 (instead of HDMI 1.2): more processing power and bandwith, supports deep color (= more than 24-bit) and Dolby TrueHD bitstream capable are the most important changes.

No 1600x900 screen resolution option. Seems like this screen resolution will never come indeed to Europe :-(

Will you do a review when you receive it?

[jawedib]

where the f on the dell website does it say 1555 or 1557? I received my studio 15 last week to realize I own a 1555, and that too I figured out myself by finding pics online.

[Fragilexx]

It tells you on your order confirmation if you place the order - or at least it did on mine.

Also, when customising your system, on the bottom right hand side of the screen, if you scroll down you will see the following:



Not exactly where I would have put the official model number, but then I don't run one a massively successful computer manufacturing company

[1337brian]

Anyone who already has a 1555, I'm looking to put the 1557 in a sleeve and then into a semi hard case/bag, anyone know of a good neoprene sleeve without zippers that fits the 1557?

@fragile.. Dell Canada sucks.. No such indication
