Replacement bottom base assembly for Precision M4700 laptops, includes battery and display spring latches

  • Genuine Dell OEM replacement part for Precision M4700 laptops

  • Includes display spring latch to hold screen assembly

  • New condition bottom base assembly with part number 44XPP

Genuine Dell Precision M4700 base assembly

This genuine Dell 44XPP base assembly replaces the bottom chassis of a Precision M4700 laptop. It restores the structural frame that holds the motherboard, battery and expansion slots. The part is supplied new and matches the original factory specification for fit and alignment. It is intended for repair technicians or owners rebuilding a damaged unit.

ExpressCard and Smart Card slot support

The moulding includes the cut-outs and internal guides for both ExpressCard and Smart Card readers, so those interfaces remain functional after the swap. Integrated battery-bay and display spring latches are included, removing the need to salvage small hardware from the old chassis. Correct screw-post placement ensures the palm-rest and keyboard deck reattach without misalignment. No additional brackets or adapters are required.

Direct replacement for cracked or warped chassis

This assembly replaces a bottom cover that has cracked around the hinge mounts, warped from heat or lost its locking tabs. The jump is worth it when the original chassis no longer holds the battery securely or the expansion-card doors will not latch. It is not for users needing a different port layout or a lighter-weight alternative shell.
