Great For Your Personal and Business Endeavors!
Overall, great product and would recommend! I have no complaints for the "Dell - Inspiron 15 3520 Touch" Laptop. It meets all of my personal and business endeavors. Work, school, and entertainment such as movies and music. Multitasking is a necessity for me and it meets my standards with 8GB of RAM (Random Access Memory.) One point I will take away is that the keys on the Keyboard do not light up, so it makes it a bit of a challenge to see what keys to press when I am not in a well lit area or simply desire for my room lights to be turned off unless I tilt the monitor in an uncomfortable position. It would have also been great if this PC had at least one USB-C port, but I can suffice with 3 USB-A ports. The touch screen feature is perfect and the sensitivity is precise. I love how the screen is also able to easily open with little resistance, and the henges are on firmly so I do not have to worry about striping the screen from the base of henges. It does not concern me to much that the laptop (specifically around the screen and keyboard area) is mainly consisting of plastic since I will be the only one using this PC.

Good choice but there is no usb-c port
I bought it for my daughter but end up using it, too. It is a good and affordable laptop. I add another 8gb ram to it. There is a space for another 2.5in ssd sata so that you can reuse your old hard drive. I definitely recommend, but I am a little bit disappointed that there is no usb-c port. Anyway, can't really beat the price of $330
