    This was the second computer I bought. I first purchased an HP with the AMD10 processor and it could not handle windows 10 or more than one thing at a time so I returned it and got the Dell which cost less and it runs great. The intel core i3 is fast and runs very smooth, I am very pleased with this product.

    Bought this in the clearance section and got a great deal. It was a floor sample or open box, but nonetheless, it works great and is well made. Highly recommend Dell products, especially laptops for reliability and quality of construction. Boots up fast and haven't had any issues. Great laptop!

    The price is really affordable and it comes with great speaker sound plus it works faster since its intel core.Overall, it'sworth the price you buy it for.

    I purchased this for the price. I needed it for a specific reason as I usually use a Mac. The Dell works great for what I needed to do. I would recommend.

    This was a great deal for what my husband needed - a computer for online searches and gaming. The Best Buy sales people are the best. You truly feel like you are getting expert advice without that "sales pitch" you feel from other places. I don't question their motives - I love their advice. Thank you!

    Don't Buy Dell

    Why can't I assign negative stars? I have been a loyal Dell customer for over 20 years. Bought this laptop for my son about 1 year ago. First the power cord jack failed. Called Dell and they said out of warranty (by days) and would cost $150+ to fix. Complained to customer service. Two days later entire system failure. Can't reboot computer and none of the diagnostic tools work. Can't even reboot in safe mode. Dell quality has gone WAY down.

    Nice but had few issues and returned.. open box didn't come with warranty or user guide. Also it was oddly slow and issues connecting to wireless..

    Good nor Bad. I'm still scraping off the intrusive Windows 10 items so I haven't played with it much beyond that. It's a lot slower than stated, takes forever to load. My printer,which worked fine on my old pc, now only does duplexing manually. I'm waiting to get a fix from HP for that. So far, it's about what I expected from a basic Dell laptop that was on sale.
