However, the display works flawlessly when connected via DisplayPort. We could not find further details about the HDMI port in the included information, but it appears to be HDMI 1.4, since our Viewsonic VP2780-4k cannot be driven at 60 Hz via HDMI 2.0 in its native resolution (3840x2160 pixels). Otherwise, there are an HDMI port, a mini DisplayPort, four USB 3.0 ports and a 3.5 mm combo-audio jack. At least, Thunderbolt 3.0 is supposed to be optionally configurable from this month onwards (January 2016), which makes the device much more future-proof. On the other hand, Dell neither incorporates a Thunderbolt 3.0 port nor USB 3.1 Gen. While older interfaces like ExpressCard slots, VGA, eSATA, or Firewire have no longer been provided by new models for a while now, you also have to do without an optical drive. While the Dell Precision 7710's connectivity covers the most important fields of application, it could still be better for a 17-inch workstation. Our Lenovo ThinkPad P70 test model weighed in at 3600 g and Schenker's W706 weighed in at 3810 g. Although the Dell Precision 7710 is not lightweight with a weight of 3580 g, it is in line with its category. Such flaws should not exist in retail-ready models we put this down to the model being a test sample. However, we found two spots where the finish is chipped off in our test model. Even the lid is very rigid overall and we could not find sharp edges. The base unit is very torsionally stiff and does not creak at all. The palm rests are stiff, the keyboard bed does not yield anywhere, and the hinges keep the display firmly in position. Moreover, it features the same positive traits as its predecessor. The new case of the Precision 7710 appears slimmer and its gray aluminum combination might be appealing to the masses. Moreover, the slightly unusual metallic brown of the case might not have met everybody's taste. However, ill-fitting components and a significantly too small touchpad were not perfect.

Apart from high stability, especially the good upgrade and maintenance options were convincing here. Of course, we expect to see these in the successor, too. The Dell Precision M6800 predecessor's case featured many good properties. Various service and accessory options are not yet considered here and can boost the price even further. However, the top variant with Nvidia Quadro M5000M, three 1 TB SSDs, UHD IGZO display and 64 GB of RAM for just under 7400 Euros (~$8072, gross price) proves that Precision models can be much more expensive. This gives a gross retail price of about 3730 Euros (~$4068), including VAT in Germany. When configured in Dell's online configurator our test model's net price is just under 3100 Euros (~$3381).

Our test model is a cheaper variant with mobile Intel Xeon E3-1535M-CPU, 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, an HDD SSD combination, AMD's professional FirePro W7170M graphics and Full HD IPS display. Traditionally, the mobile 17-inch workstations can be very freely configured with very powerful components. The successor of the big 17-inch workstation got a completely new case and certainly comes with up-to-date interfaces and the latest processors, displays and graphics chips. In particular, the Dell Precision M6800's case has grown old, since it is still based on the Dell Precision M6500 from 2009. While the still available predecessor models increase the number of options, they can hardly be recommended in view of the plethora of innovations. You'll get almost every possible workstation variant from cheaper entry-level models like the Dell Precision 3510, to the especially slim and stylish Precision 5510 up to the powerful Precision 75 there. If you consider buying a mobile workstation, Dell certainly belongs to the first sites to look for a suitable product. For the original German review, see here.
