Dell - Inspiron 24" Touch screen All-In-One - AMD Ryzen 5 - 8GB Memory - 512GB SSD - Black

I’ve always been a fan of Dell computers. Even though I primarily use Apple products, I’ve always really appreciated PC workstations - especially for standard productivity tasks. This Dell All-in-One was designed to provide a comfortable workstation with some moderate power behind it. Based on its specs, I wouldn’t be expecting this system to be able to handle graphic-intensive video games, but it can work really well with most other tasks. I became a quick fan of this system after I had a smooth startup/installation/update process. I will always hope that somehow Windows machines can reduce their load times, but so far, the update process when I start up a new system is always the thorn in my side. I will say that this Dell All-in-One seemed to move through that process quicker than other systems I’ve tried. It took 20-25 minutes to get through all the updates and installations before I could start using the system. I found that it’s a very practical option for people who need a strong option for watching videos, completing productivity-based tasks, or even schoolwork. I did not attempt to do any design-type work on it, but depending on the task, this system would probably handle it fine. I don’t see it being able to edit multiple video streams or working with a multi-layer image, but simple video edits or photo edits should work fine. Display The display is a full touchscreen. This has been an interesting transition for me because I frequently switch back and forth between my laptop and tablet. It’s nice to be able to enter commands on the Dell by tapping the screen rather than using the mouse sometimes. I haven’t used that function much, but when I have it’s typically been when I’ve been navigating through webpages. I have found the screen responsive and I haven’t noticed it stuttering. As far as the resolution goes, the screen does full 1080p HD and looks really good. It would be great if it were 4K, but based on what this computer is designed for, I think 1080p resolution is more than adequate. I played the trailer for Avatar 2 on YouTube and thought it looked great. Keyboard and Mouse The keyboard and mouse feel like standard the standard Dell keyboard and mouse combo kit. I love that they are wireless, but would have really liked to see them be rechargeable rather than require batteries. That said, I’m glad that Dell included high-quality batteries for both peripherals so that they could be used out of the box. I like the basic feel of both of them, but do wish the keys on the keyboard were a little looser. I’m used to a mechanical keyboard and the included keyboard is just a little softer with keystrokes than I’m used to. Speakers The Dell All-in-One actually has pretty great built-in speakers. They aren’t studio quality, but they push out a pretty high volume and they are better than most laptop speakers. I tested them out with some YouTube videos and by listening to some streaming music. The lacked a little bit of depth, but overall, I was really impressed with them. I never had to turn the volume up past around 25%. I did crank it up to about 50% at one point, but didn’t really feel comfortable turning it up past that. It was just too loud. WiFi/Network Speed Test Because this system boasts WiFi6 dual-band connectivity, I decided to run a network speed test (using Speedtest by Ookla) to see what kind of connection I was getting. I compared the results to my MacBook Air, which is also compatible with WiFi6. I made sure each computer was running the test from the closest possible server and then ran the speed test 4 times. The average for the Dell was 502.25 download/12.80 Upload which was faster than the MacBook Air. Speed/Performance Geekbench This is a cross-platform benchmark test that measures a system’s performance and compares it to other similar systems. This test provided a score of 1189 (Single-Core) and 3904 (Multi-Core) for the Dell All-in-One. In comparison to the most recent Benchmark tests completed with a similar processor, the Dell had the fourth lowest score in the single-core test and the third lowest score in the multi-core test. Novabench This test provides users with a comparison score (a percentile ranking) of where your system falls in comparison to other computers. The Dell’s overall score was 2558 and it ranked in the 89th all-time percentile. When I reviewed the baseline comparison, the Dell had a higher CPU score (88%+) than Mid-Level Gaming PCs (Intel Core i5-9600K or AMD Ryzen 5 3500), but was lower (20%-) than High-end Gaming PCs’ scores. Because of its processor, I would place the Dell into the Mid-level Gaming PC category even though it’s not really designed for gaming purposes. CrystalDiskMark This test is a good option for testing the read/write speed of the hard drive. I ran this test as a single pass with a 32GB load. The results I got were 3419.76 MB/s READ x 2615.47 MB WRITE. The Dell All-in-One has an SSD as its main storage option (NVMe KBG50ZNS512G) and according to benchmark tests done with that particular SSD, the Dell’s read/write score is much stronger. In summary, I think this Dell All-in-One machine is capable of most work tasks and probably even some gaming. For individuals or families who are looking for an above-average computer that can handle a variety of tasks, this is a good option. Pros Unit is compact and doesn’t take up much desk space. Speakers are very loud. Touchscreen is responsive. Display has a clear, HD resolution. Cons Keyboard and mouse are not rechargeable. Takes a long time to update. It took me around 30 minutes to complete the updates. Display isn’t 4K. The CPU performance is on the lower end of similar systems’ benchmark tests.

I have this computer setup in my game room as a shared family computer. It is mostly used for online school and homework, but I also use it for non-work-related task like photos, email, and web surfing. We previously had an old laptop with a dead battery that never moved as our family computer. I love the space saving all-in-one design that offers a larger screen and better speakers than a comparable laptop without the cooling fan noise and possibility of battery issues. While not a killer gaming machine, it is well balanced and performs everyday task without any lag or other performance issues. I love the ability to use this as a second monitor with audio for my small tablet computer. Notes - Easy set up. The legs install without tools. Batteries are included for the wireless mouse and keyboard. - Includes a basic wireless keyboard and mouse. Dell Peripheral Manager lets you configure the keyboard function keys and mouse buttons. - Good build quality. Clean Space saving design. Legs are sturdy and pivot at the attachment point to allow the display to tilt. - Large 24" full HD touchscreen display with good color and brightness. The screen is a matter finish, which limits reflections and fingerprints - perfect for kids and my game room, which gets a lot of sunlight throughout the day. - The speakers have plenty of volume and good sound quality- they don’t produce strong bass, but they are clear (no distortion) and have a decent sound stage. - Pop up camera and built-in microphone. I like that the camera can be hidden when not used for privacy and a clean look. With just indoor light the camera is a bit noisy/grainy but works for video chats or online school. - Quick and quiet solid state hard drive. There is plenty of space for a few games and my family files (mostly photos, word documents). Out of the box there is 414GB of space, with the other 45GB used for pre-installed software and the operating system. Dell limited the pre-installed software on this machine, and I appreciate the clean Windows 11 install without bloatware. - Has 3 USB-A (full size), 1 USB-C (right side), HDMI Input (use as a monitor/speaker), HDMI Output (to a second display), Ethernet (local wired network) and an SD Card reader (old school camera or cell phone memory card w/adapter). Gaming - Due to the limited memory this only really works for light gaming. - The included Radeon software allows you to change advance graphics settings and monitor performance (including in game overlays and logging). I found the overlay useful while tweaking in game visual quality settings to achieve reasonable frame rates. - I downloaded a few games from my Steam account (Doom, Poppy Playtime and Wolfenstein II) and Fortnite for the kids. Except for Fortnite (70fps) most were limited to 35-45fps even with the graphics quality set to low/low-medium and resolution at 1024x768. Doom was no fun, but the others were playable (just not preferred). Based on this experience this will probably work for lighter (or online) games like Minecraft/Roblox and games that are slower paced. - Looking thru the log files and watching the stats on the in-game overlay (thanks Radeon software). The Ryzen processor seems to work well with the Radeon GPU. The GPU does a good job at dynamically varying frame rates and clock speed to match game play, but the biggest limitation is memory. There is only 512MB of dedicated video memory and 8GB of RAM (which is also used as shared video memory). Even outside of gameplay, I saw RAM utilization of up to 80% while performing a few normal everyday tasks at the same time. I would recommend this to for everyday use and casual games, but it is likely not adequate for even a moderate gamer or someone interested in potentially playing a wide variety of newer games (especially first-person shooters).

Choice is a beautiful thing. When you're a Windows user you have choice abound when it comes to choosing a computer that meets your personal needs. I have no doubt that there exists a niche for whom the Dell Inspiron 24" Touch Screen All-In-One fits their needs perfectly. Let's talk about who this PC is for and who it's not for. Gaming: As a gamer I have to say I'm not super impressed. I'm a fan of AMD Ryzen chips and this model's Ryzen 5 is indeed the most impressive component of this machine. Scoring a respectable 90% on Novabench was a good start! A 512GB SSD was another feather in the cap of gamers who need a decent size hard drive. The GPU on the other hand was pretty abysmal. The shared memory Raedon graphics used scored just 11% on Novabench and even the most basic load screens and warm-ups maxed out the GPU pretty quickly. Halo Infinite capped at 20 FPS for me during testing and load times for even the training rooms were pretty painful. If you're a gamer beyond Minecraft or Hearts I'd take a pass. Office/Productivity: Given that the CPU performs quite well I did have more success using the Dell Inspiron as my main work computer for two afternoons. Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint and Teams all performed better than expected and I felt it was quite stable. The touch screen came in handy and the easily adjustable screen was helpful as I maneuvered around the incoming sunlight. The screen itself is a matte/anti-fingerprint screen and while it does avoid smudges I feel like it does make the text soft - already a negative point with a 1080p screen. If you're looking at numbers all day I might opt for something with better resolution. Family PC / Misc: I have to say - I love the fact that Dell adds HDMI input to these AIO. Instant flexibility to be able to add a Roku or even a gaming console in a pinch. Use this PC like an extra TV in spare bedroom or family room in a pinch! I see this is model as a good starter PC for a family that wants kids to be able access a computer in a family room. Something that can handle kids software, basic browsing, media content, and adds the flexibility of the HDMI input. Go into this purchase with reasonable expectations and you'll be happy!

I just picked up this new Dell 24" Touch screen All-In-One and I am impressed. This computer is great and would be a fantastic addition to anyone’s life that isn’t a hardcore gamer, but would instead a casual gamer, or to work from home, browse the internet, look for new recipes in the kitchen, or even for cranking out some homework. The mix of components in this all-in-one is interesting. The AMD Ryzen 5 5000 Series CPU is phenomenal. It will make multi-tasking and navigating multiple tabs or programs a breeze. The 8GB of RAM is plenty for basically anything unless you are trying to do some VR gaming or another heavy type of game or movie production, but for an everyday driver of a computer and casual gaming, It’s a great amount of RAM. The graphics card is an entry-level one, and you can find this all-in-one with better components, but it still gets the job done. The 1080p full HD display is nice and does a great job when watching shows or movies being streamed, or even some games. The screen, however, felt a tad bit fuzzy when reading articles or MS Word docs, but it wasn’t a deal-breaker, this is most likely due to the non-finger printing screen, so for me, I would take that trade-off all day. The touch screen is very responsive, and I do love that anti-fingerprint screen! 512GB of storage I feel is a little low, a 1TB SSD would have been perfect, but for most people, they wouldn’t come close to filling it up. I would have loved to see the 1TB, but for this particular model, I think the 512GB is just fine. The screen size was perfect for this machine. The 24-inch screen is plenty big enough to get all your tasks done and feels right if you are apt to use the touchscreen option. The screen size makes this computer experience more intimate, I felt more connected with this machine. Some strange components mashed up, some great, some good, some just okay. But I still think this computer is a great one! For those that are looking for a family computer, kitchen computer, or homework workhorse. The looks of this machine are fantastic. I love it. It's so simple with just the screen, a keyboard, and a mouse. It doesn’t take up much space on your desktop or counter but still feels grand when you are at the helm. The ports chosen to go into this computer are spot on. The power plug port (obviously), Two 3.1 Type-A Ports, One 3.2 Type-A port, an ethernet jack, a USB-C port (on the side), an audio out, an SD card slot, and not one, but TWO HDMI ports!! I think the HDMI ports are awesome for a streaming device or even plugging in a gaming console. My favorite feature, is the pop-up camera!! How cool is that thing!? Stores away safely and ensures nobody is watching… but when you need it for a meeting or even a video chat with your friends or family it just pops up with a touch and is ready to go with its .92 megapixel/ 720p HD camera. The computer comes with Windows 11 already installed and it has been great. A SATA SSD expansion, Dual SODIMM memory slots for memory expansion, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11AX), and some good and loud-sounding speakers. Overall, I liked this computer. Again, I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great-looking computer, with components that will stand up to any task you throw at it. I don’t recommend this computer for a heavy gamer or someone looking to do any type of VR or big movie production. But for a family computer or casual computer for the home, this thing is PERFECT!! Great job on these all-in-one computers Dell!

I’ve had the Dell Inspiron 5415 AIO - 24” Touch Screen All-in-one AMD Ryzen 5 system for about a week now and have been enjoying the space saving practical design as well as the performance it offers for every day all around use. It came configured w/only 1x 8GB DDR4 memory stick, and a 512 GB SSD M.2 drive. Luckily there is another memory slot. I would strongly recommend upgrading the memory especially if you plan to open multiple apps and docs at the same time or run any moderate gaming on this PC. The AMD Ryzen 5 - 5625U processor offers solid 6-core performance at a base speed of 2.3 GHz performance that’s great for multi-tasking and all around gaming, productivity and photo/video processing apps as well. Microsoft Windows 11 is pre-installed and takes some getting used to over the more popular Windows 10 Operating System. I ran the Passmark performance test and it got an overall score of 3,708, out of which the Hynix SSD drive had the best score, followed by the CPU. Other notable features are plenty of USB ports - 2x USB 3.1 and 1x 3.2 Type A Ports in the back and 1x USB 3.2 Type C Port conveniently located on the right side of the screen which makes it a perfect spot to plug in your phone, Android in my case. Also one HDMI out port for a second display, as well as an HDMI-in port for external streaming sticks like FireTV, Roku, etc. The built-in Wi-Fi 6 AX works great, but if you prefer a wired connection, there is also an RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port in the back. To complete the setup, a wireless keyboard and mouse combo is included with a small USB dongle. Duracell Alkaline batteries are also included, which is a nice touch. Speaking of touch, the 24” LED IPS display is a 1080p touch screen which is a plus. It is also a matte finish, which limits the amount of glare during those sunny days at the home office. There is also a pop-up 720p Webcam with built-in mic which works great with Zoom, WebEx or Microsoft Teams and probably many other compatible video conferencing apps. All in all, this is a mid-level general use PC that does it all in a practical space-saving design. It is not an advanced gaming system by any means, though the integrated Radeon graphics is good enough for basic gaming. Much like a laptop, you will hear the fan speed-up a bit when you put it through its paces, but overall it’s fairly quiet.

This all-in-one package comes in the perfect size to make use of the touch screen without pushing it so far back that you'd never use the touch feature. Interactions with the Ryzen 8 and SSD mean everything is pretty quick and you'll never worry about using this machine for homework, browsing, and general office editing tasks. The 8 GB of memory will get a little stressed if you go too crazy with the tabs, but honestly with the target audience of non-power users I think you can keep this clean by auto-closing tabs after X days and/or teaching the users to shut down the machine each night. From a homework perspective, it's great for kids newer to using a larger machine as they're mainly familiar with using a touch screen via the phone or a chromebook. This lets them naturally gravitate towards touch usage on this setup BUT it gives them a much larger work surface and I feel like it helps reduce the strain on their eyes trying to read textbooks on the smaller screens. That's probably my first use case I'd suggest this system for is a nicer at-home setup for school age kids so they don't have to squint at their Chromebooks. The second use is for adults that use their computer for express purposes and that's really what they want one for. I've got this setup on a desk for them and it doesn't take up a lot of space (they cry when they see my setup and the multiple monitors), it's easy to interact with if they don't feel like using the mouse and keyboard and just want to watch a movie, and it's going to have enough power that they aren't looking to replace in a couple years. As someone that constantly refreshes hardware, it's interesting to see how other family members would prefer to never replace anything once they get used to it and I feel comfortable recommending this system to them to lengthen the time period before I have to come back and clone their hard drive and get them used to a new setup. KEY NOTE: There is a sliding power button on the keyboard. Turn it on when you wonder why the keyboard isn't working after plugging in the wireless dongle for the mouse/keyboard combo!

If you are looking for a good entry-level system and do not need all the clutter that comes with a regular PC, then the DELL Inspiron 24in All-in-One is the right system for you. This a good system for productivity, basic photoshop and some light gaming. The Inspiron has a built-in .92 megapixel or HD 720p pop up camera with built-in microphone that can be used for meetings or even streaming while gaming and can be pushed back down into the system when not being used for privacy. As the name would suggest the Inspiron 24 has a full HD 23.8 in touchscreen IPS LED display. The touchscreen is quite responsive and the display colors, contrast and brightness are not bad. Right under the display you have your speakers which are decent. They are loud and clear enough to watch a movie or to even listen to some music. There really aren’t much options and settings to mess around with the MaxxAudio drivers. The whole system is powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 6-core 2.3 gigahertz processor with 8 GB of DDR4 ram and 512 GB SSD and an integrated AMD Radeon video card. The processor combined with the AMD Radeon Video card is great for multitasking, productivity, some basic photoshop, watching movies and some basic gaming. Just for giggles, I did try to run Forza Horizon on the system and it was not fun at all. Running Forza Horizon with some tweaked settings ended up with the system freezing up on me and requiring a restart. But on the upside, the all-in-one does come with WIFI 6, ethernet port, SD card reader, audio jack, and HDMI in and out ports, if you would like to use it as a secondary screen. Overall, this is a good All-in-one system but lets honest its not meant for gaming. This system can easily run games that are do not require a lot of graphics, but it is geared more towards entertainment, such as browsing the net, watching movies, listening to some music and even some office work or school work. So, as an entry-level productivity and entertainment pc, I would recommend this, not for gaming.

Overall, the Dell Inspirion i5415 AIO is a good desktop replacement for tight spaces or for those that just need to do some basic computing with a bit of multimedia mixed in. It's decently fast out of the box, has a speedy SSD (3580/2512 peak reads/writes in CrystalDiskMark), good screen w/touch capability. The screen brightness is good, maxed is actually a bit too bright for me in an average brightness room. Having an included wireless keyboard and mouse is super nice, both work well! It never gets too loud under heavier use, I definitely noticed the fan while playing a quick bot match of DotA2 and while benchmarking, but not obnoxiously so. (Not having a VESA mount is a pain, and honestly super odd to not have.) If not gaming and just doing basic stuff, you'll have a fine time. BUT, having 6 cores and 12 threads (even with a low power mobile CPU) SHOULD give good performance, but Dell gimped another Ryzen chip by only including a single stick of 8GB. (At this price point, 8GB is enough, but they should have included 2x4GB for dual channel, ESPECIALLY with an APU). I benchmarked before and after a cheap memory upgrade and saw anywhere from 6% to a 75%+ increase in performance. I have included screen shots. With the graphics performance being directly tied to the amount of memory bandwidth available, having dual channel is a must for getting the most out of any APU. (Memory upgrade isn't too difficult and a basic how-to guide is available from Dell)
