Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the affordability of the Inspiron 15.6" Laptop, often describing it as a great laptop for the price. Many customers also mention its suitability for schoolwork and basic tasks, with comments like "It served its purpose" and "Perfectly suited for my needs." While some customers appreciate its lightweight design and ample storage, a few express frustration with the lack of a CD/DVD drive and the challenges of adjusting to Windows 10.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Right out of the box this computer had a very slow start up. I have been looking at installed apps and shutting down everything but nothing helps. Do not purchase this computer.

      Hi Valued Customer,

      We're sorry to see that your computer is performing slower than you hoped it would. We'd recommend limiting the number of programs that launch at startup by following these instructions:

      1. Close all open windows.
      2. Press CTRL + Shift + ESC key together on the keyboard.
      3. In the Task Manager window, click Startup tab.
      4. Select the program or application that you want to disable from loading during startup.
      5. Right-click and select Disable.
      6. Repeat Step 4 & 5 for all the programs or applications that you want to disable from loading during startup.
      7. Restart your PC.

      You can read the full article here - http://dell.to/2tSulGV.

      We hope these tips help your computer start up faster for you.

      Best,
      Bryan

    Not fancy, but does exactly what I need it to do. Obviously not suited for heavy duty stuff, but runs regular office apps just fine.
