    TUXEDO Book BM15

     

    Solid workhorse for ultimate business needs.

     

    The TUXEDO Book BM15 is the ideal, solid office notebook for everyday office use and is aimed at users who are looking for an inexpensive, Linux-based and above all thoroughly office compatible working notebook.

     

    The BM15 recalls long forgotten office-virtues that are still highly valued in the working world, such as an LTE module, a VGA port for beamers or older monitors, an ODD and an externally replaceable battery.

     

     

    Back to the roots ...

     

    ...could be the motto of the TUXEDO Book BM15. Because the affordable 15.6 inch laptop relies on technology and connectivity options that have been tried and tested for years and are still needed in many offices and work places.

     

    Intel's latest ULV (=ultra low voltage) CPUs in the form of the i5-10210U or i7-10510U (15W TDP each) enable a quiet and cool usage thanks to their high energy efficiency while, in conjunction with dual channel RAM of up to 64 GB, providing more than enough power for all everyday office tasks.

     

     

    Plenty of connections

     

    The TUXEDO Book BM15 provides all the connection standards, which are relevant in the working world and still frequently required today: While the full-size VGA port allows the connection of beamers and older monitors without annoying adapters, the integrated optical disk drive offers the possibility to read and write data from and to DVDs respectively. The integrated 6-in-1 card reader reads MMC, RSMMC, SD, miniSD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards.

     

    The clou: We also offer the ODD as a kind of "hot swap drive". This means that instead of using the optical disk drive you can install a conventional 2.5 inch HDD or SSD. Due to the ODD side slot, this can be even swapped as an external mass storage device in a flexible "plug n play" manner. Please choose at the configurator which option to you prefer! It is not possible to switch afterwards!

     

     

    Proven technology, yet modern

     

    The TUXEDO Book BM15 awakens the "good old times" only in the respect of its maximum office compatibility, but of course it uses modern technical standards. The 15.6-inch FullHD display with 1920 x 1080 pixels convinces with stable viewing angles (IPS type) for great co-working experiences with your colleagues.

     

    Furthermore, fast SSD mass storage devices are also mandatory in the working world for efficient processing of various office tasks. In addition to a space-saving M.2 SATA/PCIe, a 2.5 inch bay for SSDs or classical HDD hard drives is also available.

     

     

    Backlit keyboard with number pad

     

    The backlit keyboard in chiclet design includes a large number pad for fast input and filling of Excel spreadsheets and of course comes with our obligatory TUX Super key instead of the usual Windows key. The pleasant typing experience thus also makes writing texts or e-mails for longer periods of time a comfortable activity, while the generously dimensioned touchpad with dedicated mouse buttons completes the input devices of the business notebook.

     

     

    Changeable battery and solid chassis

     

    TUXEDO provides the BM15 office notebook with a 41 Wh Li-Polymer battery, which can be changed easily and which supplies the business laptop with up to 10 hours (idle mode at lowest display brightness) of battery life. For the greatest possible flexibility, TUXEDO Computers offers replacement batteries to extend the range and battery life of the notebook as desired!

     

    With a height of 24 mm and a moderate weight of 2.0 kg, the TUXEDO Book BM15 is well suited for mobile use and the modern slim bezel display design let the device made of robust, silver-grey plastic appear in a subtle, yet modern and compact look.



    Technical Details

    Display / Monitor

    Modern displays with IPS panels have bright areas along the frame as a normal characteristic. This has hardly any influence on everyday operation, not least because the displays are optimized for daylight operation. It can only be minimized, but not completely avoided, regardless of the manufacturer and for manufacturing reasons. Details on pixel error classes can be found here.

     

    Type: LED backlight display, matt/mirror/non-glare
    Size: 15,6" (39,62cm)
    Resolution: Full-HD IPS-Panel, 1920 x 1080
    Frequency: 60 Hz
    Brightness: 320 nits
    Contrast: 700 : 1
    Display colors: 72% NTSC
    Viewing Angle: 89°/89°/89°/89°
    Display opening angle: approx. 140°.
    Model: INNOLUX N156HCE-EN1

     

    Chassis

    Dimensions: width: 36.1 cm; height: 2.41 cm; depth: 25.6 cm
    Weight: 1.96 kg with battery (depending on equipment!)

     

    Keyboard and Touchpad

    Full size keyboard, with numeric keypad.
    White backlit keys, i. e. the illuminated labelling, can be controlled and switched off in 6 steps.

     

    Battery & power supply

    Large 41 Wh battery, 4 cells lithium-ion, exchangeable, normally plugged in from outside.
    Mini power supply unit, only 88x35x26mm (LxWxH), 100g or 200g with all cables
    Battery life: (With our optimization measures!)
    Approx. 10 hours with min. brightness at idle speed
    Approx. 7 hours at normal brightness, with WLAN enabled, under working conditions

    We're testing battery time always in idle mode, at minimal display brightness, with keyboard backlight deactivated, Wi-Fi & Bluetooth disabled and without any further connected devices (USB, LAN, HDMI, VGA etc. unplugged!). We always test with integrated graphics when a dedicated and integrated graphics chip is installed.
    This way you get an information of maximal possible battery life. Starting from this, you can manage your individual battery life depending on your demands and to influence it, e.g. is keyboard backlight unnecessary during daylight. Bluetooth is also only needed to be turned on, if there's a Bluetooth device connected. Full display brightness as well is hardly always necessary.

     

     

    Lifetime of batteries

    The operation of all TUXEDO Books is also possible without battery. Users are often advised to remove the battery during permanent mains operation in order to conserve it. Thanks to FlexiCharger this is not necessary. Further Information

    Cooling System & Fan

    Temperature controlled fan
    At low system workload, there is less heat emerging. The cooling system fans can spin accordingly slow or even turn themselves off completely. Depending on the chassis, cooling system and CPU and GPU, high to very high fan noise (air swooshing) is produced under full load. Thinner notebooks normally tend to get louder due to less cooling capacity.

    Custom performance and fan control with the TUXEDO Control Center
    With the TUXEDO Control Center you are able to control the performance and the behavior of the fans by yourself. This means that you get the ability to make your device as quiet as possible. By heavily reducing the performance you are able to set the device almost passive cooled, without any fan noise most of the time!
