As the twist resistance of the display can only be called sufficient, the metal chassis of the display lid shows its strength when put under pressure. The display cuts of, in regards of stability, extremely impressive. Also, when raising the notebook at the front edge no deformations or even creaking noises are noticed. Put under pressure the base unit gives away selectively to some extent on the upper as well as the bottom side. Not only the optic and haptic of the notebook profits from the generous use of metallic components, the biggest beneficiary is primarily the offered stability. With a just as strictly linear and geometric line it adapts optimally to the base unit.
The display seems almost too massive with about one centimeter of component strength at its sides. The very plane base unit with a height of merely 22 millimeters is pleasing at first sight and although it has an abrupt edge at the front side, it assures a pleasant usage of the keyboard. One can also describe the design of the case as successful for its purpose. Noticeable is also that the keyboard lettering was kept solely in white. With its blue-violet border, the trackpoint also stands out a bit in the keyboard center of the laptop. Merely the discreet blue LED over the keyboard sets a tone. In order to convey the maximum of professionalism and seriousness in the design of the notebook, it was completely immersed into a matte black. While at first the case feels almost metallically cool, it obtains a consistent warming after a few minutes and loses a bit of it metallic image. Only metal components were used (according to Dell a magnesium alloy) which give the E6500 a remarkable stability and a high quality haptic. Dell doesn’t make any compromises in the conception of the case of the Latitude E6500.
