    Hi! im not familiar with dell notebooks and some advice would be greatly appreciated. Im confused and cant decide between dell studio xps 16 or dell studio 17 Bascially which one is better for watching blurays and has the best LED LCD option? Im not interested in their gaming potential. Thanking everyone in advance.

    this may sounds confusing to you, studio 17 actually has teh better rgb led screen 330nit/800 contrast vs 270 nit/500 contrast,
    but studio 16 has the overall better visual experience due to the much improved video card 3670.
    studio xps 16 is a multimedia specialist, for watching bluray videos, its hand down studio 16.
