Dell updates Vostro laptop for better battery life

The Vostro V131, unveiled on Thursday, lets customers replace hp compaq nx7300 battery themselves and also offers lengthier battery life. The V130's six-cell battery lasted just over two hours with hp nx7400 battery continuous video playback, but Dell said in a blog post that the V131 could manage almost 10 hours on a single charge.
"Overall battery life is much improved 372771-001 compared to the V130, thanks in no small part to Intel's second-generation Core 412918-721 technology, which you may know as Sandy Bridge," Dell blogger Lionel Menchaca wrote.
The V131 has three Intel processor 417528-001 options, including the ultra-low voltage Celeron 847 and the HSTNN-CB30 standard-voltage Core i3-2310M and Core i5-2410M. Customers can select four-cell or six-cell batteries.
Other features include an PA3929U-1BRS HD webcam with dual-array microphones, SRS Premium PA3832U-1BRS Voice Pro audio software, a fingerprint reader and a fall sensor for the hard drive. Although US customers can only choose configurations with hard drives, SSD options are available in some countries, including the UK.
The Dell Vostro V131 is on sale at a starting price of £359 excluding VAT and shipping, although its price can go much higher depending on the configuration.
