  • Documentation

Q: Is it upgradable to Windows 11?

A: Yes! The system will let you choose to update your Windows to the latest Win 11 (S mode). Although this process is reversible (if you wish to come back to Win 10), be sure to learn about the time lime (if I am not wrong it's 10 days). ps: You can exit the S mode in no time, which will let you install all your favorite software (that is not restricted by the Microsoft store).

Q: Does this laptop have a cd drive? Thanks

A: This laptop does not have built in a CD/DVD reader. Should you need one, Dell recommends an external USB CD/DVD (DW316) to be used with this system. This has to be purchased separately.

Q: Does the keyboard have a separate numberic keypad on the right or just the numbers on the top? You can't tell from the pictures.

A: This system comes with a separate numeric keypad on the right of the keyboard layout.

Q: Does this pc have Bluetooth?

A: Yes it does..

Q: Laptop body is metal or plastic?

A: This laptop's body is built with Aluminum exterior shell.

Q: I see it has only SSD storage. Can you add more 500 GB HDD storage for me? Or maybe 250GB is still okay. And how much for it?

A: This system could accommodate one more 2.5-inch hard drive of size up to 2 TB.

Q: Can Roblox (and other video games) be played on this laptop?

A: Absolutely....it's a Windows based laptop

Q: Can you take it out of S mode?

A: Yes, the S mode int he operating system could be disabled.
