The new M14x chang e also co mes fro m the shell material. Used by its predecesso r M15x special ano dized
aluminum shell is different, M14x with a hig h-streng th eng ineering shell, and with a class o f co ating
materials to impro ve skin texture and to uch the machine. The o fficial explained that the pro ject has a
co ating material and class have a mo re ro bust skin and stro ng perfo rmance, but with the traditio nal
ano dized aluminum enclo sure can no t really be co mpared.
M14x uses hig h-streng th eng ineering material shell is no t simply to reduce the co st and co st, in fact, hig h-
streng th eng ineering material shell also has its merits, the mo st direct impact is sig nificantly reduced
weig ht, mo re beneficial to the user mo bile use. In additio n, chang es in bo dy size is also impo rtant o n the
side, no o ne denied that the 14-inch size smaller than 15 inches into the backpack mo re user-friendly.
Appearance there is a mo re o bvio us chang e in desig n fro m the fro nt o f the fuselag e, befo re M15x makes
use o f the desig n lo o ks slig htly stiff, and in the M14x bo dy fro nt yo u will find here a mo re streamlined and
mo re sci-fi feel, but the functio n did no t make the chang e, as is o nly a deco rative ro le.
M14x's co ntro l feel and no shred o f chang e, as is the full-size keybo ard co nfig uratio n, pro vides the input

desig n, the new M14x has no t chang ed, but the width o f the keybo ard co mpared to the previo us M15x

In additio n, M14x always inherited predecesso rs unique selling po int: lig hting , M14x lig hting effects

Why M14x's interio r desig n is mo re delicate it? The main reaso n is the interio r desig ner o n the M14x to
add a new desig n elements, fro m the M15x interio r, we see the to p o f the keybo ard placed in o rdinary
plastic, and in the M14x the to p o f the keybo ard is using a metal material, with dense cellular netwo rk
desig n, M14x machine to enhance the texture o f the interio r at least o ne g rade. No t o nly that, here also
two sets o f hidden built-in hig h-end Klipsch speakers, with the bo dy at the bo tto m o f the bass unit can
create and resto re a realistic so und effects.
Co mpared with the M15x, aaaltho ug h bo th are co mmo n in the desig n o f the LED lig hting to uchpad
fo ur weeks, but the desig n o f fo rmal po int o f view, the new M14x seems to be mo re o f a number o f
fashio n. Befo re the new M14x do es no t fo llo w the desig n o f an integ rated to uchpad, the to uchpad
embedded desig n center in palm rest, separate left and rig ht mo use butto n is desig ned to pro vide mo re
co nvenience to the user's input and o peratio n.
Interface o n the perfo rmance o f the bo dy is, M14x is the abso lute number o f the mo st abundant, in
additio n to co nventio nal VGA, HDMI video o utput interface, etc., but also jo ined the Displaypo rt
interface, three different fo rmats o f video o utput interface can ensure the M14x adapt to any external
video equipment. Displaypo rt interface is a hig h-definitio n dig ital display interface standard, the
transmissio n speed than HDMI, but because the co st has no t been po pular in the lo w-end pro ducts, and in
the future o f this interface is likely to beco me the mainstream o f hig h-definitio n dig ital display interface
standard.
Fro m the layo ut o f the interface po int o f view, M14x is quite g o o d, the left side o f the fuselag e full
acco unt o f the user interface to the actual usag e, we need to so lve all the external interface cable built in
the upper left, yo u can remo ve the user sets the scene to o much diso rder, leaving mo re space fo r mo re
files, cups and o ther perso nal o bjects.
Is also o bserved fro m the perspective o f the layo ut o f the fuselag e rig ht side o f the interface desig n,
because the use o f slo t-drive and is lo cated clo se to the daily co ntro l o f the mo use's rig ht-hand users,
daily use will no t o ccupy as larg e as an o rdinary drive hang ing space. It is wo rth no ting here the interface
desig n, M14x canceled by the ExpressCard interface, and USB interface is also upg raded fro m 2.0 to 3.0 ,
and is dual USB3.0 , USB3.0 altho ug h no t po pular, but better than no ne.
Fo r a new mo del, users wo uld be mo re co ncerned abo ut ho w the heat level in the end, this pro duct has
value M14x o ffers relatively g o o d mo bility, the user sho uld po int to its hig her level o f heat dissipatio n
requirements. Here we take a lo o k at M14x o n this pro duct in the thermal mo dule desig n, and then in to a

tho ro ug h understanding o f their true level o f heat it!
Unlike the do uble thermal mo dule desig n M15x, aaM14x altho ug h there is to see two co o ling mo dules,
but in fact the pro cesso r and g raphics card is a co o ling mo dule, the public, just like g o o ds, ano ther idle,
the mo dule do es no t pro vide the actual heat. The same as under the No te ico n, here is the placement o f
memo ry mo dules, altho ug h there are so me co o ling effect, but certainly no t independent o f the pro cesso r
and g raphics used in all the heat to co o l.
The actual temperature o f the test also sho ws that o ur g uess is co rrect. M14x's keybo ard is no t ideal to
heat slig htly, the temperature can reach the keypad 39 deg rees. Palm rest area temperature is rather
strang e, there it is o n the rig ht palm rest, the temperature reached 38 deg rees Celsius, the rig ht palm rest
temperature is to o hig h fo r a reaso n, where the desig n o f hard disk and CD-ROM and hard disk drive
inside the , there is no co o ling channel fo r its use, resulting in temperature is difficult to drain away.
Back bo dy heat even mo re wo rrying , the main hardware placement o f the temperature o f the reg io n
reached almo st 40 deg rees Celsius,DC Po wer JACK DELL INSPIRON 1545 XPS M1330 M1530 PJ30 A is
no t co nducive to the lifting o f bare skin, especially no w the beg inning o f summer, with indo o r and
o utdo o r temperature, M14x no t suitable fo r user lo ng time use.
Theo retically, as lo ng as the lapto p has a g o o d thermal perfo rmance, the battery life o n certain has a
g o o d perfo rmance. As the M14x's perfo rmance prio r to the heat, altho ug h the built-in lithium po lymer
batteries, but we are also no t o ptimistic abo ut their life to achieve satisfacto ry results. M14x is the built-in
battery can view the battery po wer, easy to use o n the mo ve in time to understand ho w much po wer fo r its
use, but so me effo rt to co ntro l them a little fee.
M14x built-in lithium po lymer battery has reached 6 3Wh, after we use Mo bileMark20 0 7 under full lo ad
testing up to 255 minutes using the leng th o f the screen that the user's state o f the brig htest in fo ur ho urs,
the endurance perfo rmance has been quite g o o d, no t kno wing the level o f o rdinary g ame no tebo o k
battery life is very to ug h o ver 3 ho urs.
Upg rading fro m a perso nal po int o f view, M14x's perfo rmance is g o o d, bo dy is very easy to o pen, the
back o f the fuselag e with o nly two screws to secure the bo tto m co ver. Ho wever, the current o fficial
standard view, the user's behavio r is no t desirable to upg rade the existing hardware level sufficient to
meet the mainstream o f larg e-scale 3D Play a sing le g ame.

M14x equipped with a who le new g eneratio n o f Intel Co re i pro cesso rs - i7-2820 QM, this release o f the
first g eneratio n o f pro cesso rs so that peo ple o f visio n fro m the CPU to enhance perfo rmance o f many
who mo ved to the GPU. Co mpared to the first g eneratio n o f Co re i series pro cesso rs, the seco nd
g eneratio n o f Co re i series pro cesso r in the user experience o n the majo r upg rade o f the three po ints:
1.32nm pro cess techno lo g y, bring ing impro ved perfo rmance and lo wer po wer co nsumptio n; 2 fusio n
perfo rmance was co mparable to entry-level sing le GPU, the video enco ding / deco ding capacity; 3 Turbo
Bo o st 2.0 techno lo g y, demand fo r perfo rmance tuning .
Intel Co re i7-2820 QM quad-co re eig ht thread pro cesso rs, clo cked at 2.30 GHz, just fro m the parameters
fo r, yo u can pro bably have a g o o d understanding o f their perfo rmance, co upled with 8GB 16 0 0 MHz
DDR3 SDRAM memo ry suppo rt, no t its stro ng perfo rmance self-evident.

technical suppo rt, if yo u are no t used under full lo ad, NVIDIA Optimus techno lo g y to make yo ur M14x
achieve the perfect balance between perfo rmance and battery life. Thro ug h the 3Dmark0 6 test, the sco re

Summary
Specifically fo r the Chinese o fficial said M14x users to create, pro bably because o f their lo ve o f Chinese
users, especially 14-inch no tebo o k co mputer, no tebo o k co mputer under this dimensio n o f perfo rmance
and battery life has a g o o d perfo rmance, and in g eneral are mo re po rtable mo dels. But I o nly saw him
M14x perfo rmance is very stro ng , as life belo ng s to the middle level, the po rtability o f the mo st critical in
the M14x's bo dy really is no t reflected, 2.9 41Kg the who le weig ht who can no t be said fo r a lo ng time o f
mo bile po rtability.
Ho wever, M14x bro ug ht a new chang e is wo rthy o f reco g nitio n, after all, a main perfo rmance no tebo o k
co mputers, are used in hig h-end mainstream hardware case, the expense o f what the user is the po rtability
can be fo rg iven, but no t so rry M14x ano dized aluminum shell o f custo mized services, which many peo ple
feel M14x this pro duct will shrink so me, especially fo r the fans who pro bably will no t be to lerated.
