Unboxing, the laptop shows an excellent quality and fit. The matte finish does not attract fingerprints. The build appears to be mostly plastic but felt solid, and resists flexing. Nor did I see any real flex in the keyboard while typing. Opening and closing, the hinges were firm, and held position. It does seem to be a heavier build, so would expect it to be very sturdy. Being a two-in-one laptop, it can be used in traditional laptop mode, tent, or – although huge - tablet mode. Around the sides are a reasonable number of ports. One HDMI, two USB-A 3.2, two USB-C 3.2, a SD card slot, and a 3.5 headphone jack. The drawback of the SD slot is that the card does not insert all the way and protrudes, so care is needed not to damage the card or the port. A few specs about the computer. A 512Gb SSD, 16Gb DDR5 RAM @ 5600Mhz, and AMD Ryzen-5 six core 12 thread processor with a 4.9Ghz burst. The touch screen is 1920 X 1200 @ 60Hz, and 300 nits. The fingerprint reader is integrated in the power button. Full specs are on line. The keyboard is very comfortable to type on, and keys are back lit. However, the keys being a gray color, the back lighting doesn't stand out as it would on darker keys. The touch pad feels smooth, and worked perfectly. To me, the screen looked great. The specs are 300 nits and color gamut of 45% . But, I found the screen was reasonably colorful and bright. I set brightness to only 70%. And the 60Hz is very adequate for movies, videos, every day tasks, etc. The touch function of the screen was responsive and smooth. The sound is very full for laptop speakers. Loud enough, and had a fairly deep sound – not as tinny sounding as many laptops. Battery looks like it will last nearly 8 hours or more with just general daily use. I did all the usual updates, downloads, uninstalling unnecessary apps, and limit start up to minimum apps, and this machine really zips along. Boot up time was very short – about 15 seconds. I am impressed with how quickly it loads pages, does the usual everyday tasks. It is even capable of running games with lower hardware requirements and lower settings. Although not for heavy games, this laptop is a great choice for browsing, streaming, even light games. At this price point, it will be difficult to beat.

I’ve recently picked up the Dell Inspiron 14" 2-in-1 FHD+ Touchscreen Laptop – which is a compelling balance between performance, portability, and versatility. With its AMD Ryzen 5 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a convertible touchscreen form factor, it’s designed for users who demand flexibility without compromising speed. PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKS (using Passmark Performance Test) • Overall Rating: 6499 - Solid mid-tier performance for general productivity, multitasking, and light creative work • CPU Mark: 21,974 - Excellent multi-core performance — ideal for demanding workloads like compilation, virtualization, and media encoding • Disk Mark: 33,823 - Outstanding SSD throughput — ensures near-instant boot times, app launches, and file transfers Takeaway: These scores place the Inspiron well above typical ultrabooks in its class. The CPU Mark of 21,974 by the AMD Ryzen 5 processor delivers strong multi-threaded performance. The Disk Mark of 33,823 indicates a high-speed NVMe SSD, likely PCIe Gen 4, which is exceptional for a consumer-grade 2-in-1. HARDWARE • Display: 14" FHD+ (1920x1200) touchscreen with 16:10 aspect ratio — great for vertical screen real estate and stylus use. Graphics and images look awesome and the small bezel is attractive as well. • Form Factor: 2-in-1 convertible hinge with tablet mode — ideal for note-taking, sketching, or media consumption. • Build Quality: Aluminum top cover and sturdy hinge mechanism — premium feel without excessive weight. • Ports: USB-C, HDMI, USB-A, microSD — versatile enough for most workflows. • The fingerprint reader provides added convenience • Keyboard backlighting for me is a must and this device has several brightness levels. MEMORY AND STORAGE • RAM: 16GB DDR4 — ample for multitasking, browser-heavy workflows, and light creative tasks. • Storage: 512GB NVMe SSD (based on Disk Mark) — blazing fast and generous for most users. BATTERY AND HEAT DISSIPATION • Battery Life: ~8–10 hours under mixed use — Ryzen efficiency shines here. • Thermals: Well-managed under load, thanks to Dell’s adaptive thermal tuning and efficient chassis airflow. • I’m thankful that it uses a USB-C charger (much more standard now) than those older round power plugs that always became loose! IDEAL USE CASES • Professionals needing a portable workstation with snappy performance • Students or educators who benefit from tablet mode and stylus input • Light content creators (photo editing, light video work) • Power users who multitask across browsers, Office, and communication tools SUMMARY The Dell Inspiron 14" 2-in-1 with Ryzen 5 and 16GB RAM is a performance machine. With a PassMark CPU score rivaling some H-series chips and a Disk Mark that outpaces many premium laptops, it’s a productivity powerhouse in a flexible chassis. While it’s not a gaming rig or a workstation-class machine, it punches well above its weight for its price and form factor.
