Inspiron 15 (3520) Laptop - 15.6 Inch FHD 120Hz, Intel Core i5-1235U, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Intel Iris Xe Graphics, Windows 11 Home, English UK Keyboard - Carbon Black

I am a Mum of 3 who isn't very tech savvy. But I needed a new laptop to edit videos, to use Microsoft teams for video meetings, to use Microsoft word and make PowerPoint presentations. After doing lots of research, I bought this laptop 3 months ago. I like how sturdy it is and how easy it is to use. It has a good battery life and the laptop quality is great. They keyboard feels great to type on and there is enough room for your wrists without them landing on the touch pad. I wanted a screen of this size to watch movies and the graphics are fantastic. I am surprised at how good the sound is too and how loud it can get. The screen quality is good too and there isn't much glare, even with light coming from outside from behind. I use it for several hours a day and it is still very speedy. The only thing I am unhappy with, is how much it can heat up. It usually happens when I am editing and making a video. I need to buy a little table for it when using on my lap, because that causes it to heat up more too for example when I am watching a movie. The fan can be a bit noisy when that happens too. Overall, I really like it and hope it last a long time. The camera quality is very good too. I like it has 3 USB Ports and a bonus for me, is the full SD card port. I wanted this for easy when taking the card out from my camera. I don't need to buy micro SD cards and then the full size to insert in my camera.

Great performance, not experienced any lag yet even on battery mode, can have many windows and desktops open no problem, light and portable with 5+ hour battery life and rarely makes any noise - perfect. Beautifully convenient. Fits in smaller bags. Been using it for a month now and can’t think of anything negative. Haven’t gamed on it but it’ll probably do a decent job for more casual games.

Generally a really good laptop, but the sound card isnt quite up to the standard of my ancient and replaced Dell. Very ok for day to day use, just not as good.

The laptop is excellent value for money. It was so easy to set up initially and the sign on speed is excellent. The battery has good long battery life in comparison to my old laptop. The screen is bright sharp and clear. The sound is sharp and good volume levels. I am so glad I upgraded to this make and model. I highly recommend it especially to non techie lime myself.

This is a great little laptop - very light, yet with a decent sized screen, so great for portability when travelling. It's also very fast. So altogether good value for money and I would thoroughly recommend it.

Very good laptop, very easy to set up and the sound quality is good. Son using for University

I spent money I couldn’t afford to this month, to leave Dell as a customer after (on and off) 20 years. This experience was beyond infuriating. I bought this laptop six weeks ago. About a month ago, I dropped it from a fairly short height (the seat of a chair) and the screen shattered. I was quoted the cost of just about the price of buying the laptop new, for a technician to repair it. I reached out to their corporate team, to see if there was any sort of compromise that could be made. I was upfront about the fact I caused this issue, but questioned the high cost of repairing it. I had a separate quote for the part itself - indeed, about four/five times the cost of acquiring it from anywhere else. Accupart, when given the service tag of the machine, sent me a screen. Completely incompatible, sent it back and reinstalled the broken screen. Found the exact part online, directly from the manufacturer. Exact part number. Bought it, installed it, it worked then never turned on again after that and I’m afraid that doesn’t really work for me. £400 plus, wasted. If you sell a machine with parts that are flimsy (yeah, the screen shouldn’t have done that with such a small knock), you shouldn’t make them incompatible with replacement parts and you shouldn’t quote a value that essentially forces your customer into risking the whole device on a new bit from Accupart or eBay. The hinges are weak, the thing occasionally wouldn’t turn on even before the screen issues and the battery life is absolutely terrible. And of course, expect to budget for a brand new replacement the moment something goes wrong. Lenovo alternative arriving on Monday. Don’t make the same mistake I made.

Second one in our family. We have had many Dell PCs over the years and all have been well put together workhorses and I see no reason this in not going to be more of the same. Keyboard feels solid and the case is nice quality and solid
