Dell XPS 15 - L501x Webcam Test (Skype HD) @ 720p H.264

This is a sample clip to show how well the Skype HD webcam performs at recording 720p video. I chose a dark room setting to see how well it performed and am pretty impressed. I am uploading this clip from Dell's bundled Webcam software.

boss in ur opinion which quality screen is good ? 720p or 1080p in dell xps 15?is any much difference in these two ?

[knaadhan]

@salmanhayyan: Definitely the 1080p is much better. I am a regular contributor on the notebookreview forums and from what I have heard the 720p is a mixed bag. Some people say its good, some say it isn't. No complaints on the 1080p so far. It's excellent for movies and productivity. The best screen on general consumer laptops so far.

Hello buddie, I got this laptop but when I record a video, there is some kind of continous sound intereference on the background, I mean, the sound is not clean. It looks like your record has a very clean sound. Do you have any idea why this happens with my laptop? Im also using dell sofware to record. Thanks

@gonzalox3m : Actually I have the same small interference in the background too. You can notice it on my Bose headphones review video. From what I see it only happens when you select the 1280x720 H.264 HD recording option and not the others.

@Winterbyte If you really can't tell the difference just by looking at it you shouldn't spend the extra money.

going to get this laptop this 16th man

I am very excited ...Whatever it is for a 2mp webcam this video seems very posh..

No contrast issues like most of the low end cameras.

how many minutes of continuous video does it record?
