Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the Inspiron 15.6" laptop's excellent performance, impressive graphics card, and fast SSD as major strengths. Many also appreciate its good screen quality, long battery life, and reasonable price. However, some users find the laptop somewhat heavy and note that the fan can be noisy during intensive use. A few customers also suggest that the storage capacity could be improved.

    Great Laptop for Gaming

    This review is written about 1 year after purchasing so keep that in mind. I bought this to be able to play Final Fantasy XIV on the go. It works great. Nearly max graphics with decent fps. Some drops during 24 man raids but not if you turn off other player's spell effects. One nice thing about this device is that you can add an additional drive without having to remove the installed SSD. The installed drive is a small (maybe) M.3 style drive that takes up as much space as a stick of RAM so that leaves the normal HDD bay empty. You can throw a large HDD or another SSD in there to get even more space. It also only has 1 dimm of 8gb memory which means you can double your memory without having to buy 2 sticks. My only minor complaint is that the backlit keyboard does not stay lit when unplugged. I've changed the settings in the bios and it should stay on even while idle, but it doesn't. Again, not a deal breaker by any means, but it's there... Overall, I am very pleased with this laptop. I've heard negative things about Dell recently, but I couldn't pass up the deal. I'm glad those rumors were wrong. This laptop is solid.

      Hello Adam,

      Thanks so much for your positive feedback about your Dell laptop. Here are some steps that have helped other customers keep their backlit keyboard working longer when it's unplugged:

      1. Open the Windows Mobility Center on your computer.
      2. Click on the magnifying glass next to the Windows icon, type mobility and then select it.
      3. An app will open with Dell Keyboard Brightness.
      4. Click on the app and more keyboard settings will open. This will allow you to set your backlit keyboard to stay on for a longer time when your laptop is unplugged.

      We hope that these steps help resolve the concern that you have.

      Best,
      Bryan

    I looked at reviews on this computer and another one. I'm glad I went with this one. It was on sale and works great for editing videos. Plus it can be used for gaming also. I had the geek squad install a couple of programs and they were great with going through the computer with me. Thanks and I would recommend this computer to anyone.

    Great setup out of the box. I tweaked a few GPU settings to use the 1050ti on battery. Ultra fast boot times with sata m.2 drive. Also has open space to upgrade/add a SSD as well. Extra slot for ram. Very upgradeable laptop. I own 3 of them with varying specs. The cheaper version without the m.2 drive is also a very good buy.

    Excellent gaming laptop. Purchased to play games as well as for some school work. Did not come with office. Truly in love with this laptop; it has excellent specs for the price. Battery life can be a little short, so make sure to bring your charger for any gaming or above minimal use outside the home. Would definitely recommend.

    The price equals the quality. While it only comes with 256gb ssd it does have a slot for another drive. Quick plug n play and formatting for the additional drive. Graphics card is good for past games but may be hard for future games. Perfect for adobe products.

    Bought this for my 12yr old son and he loves it. Games play smoothly. Speakers sound so much better than other laptops. The only thing I did not like too much was the screen hinge because it felt like the screen is bending when you open from the lid's corners. Other than that, this is a solid laptop.

    Got it on sale. Dropped an extra 8GB RAM in it, it came with 1x8GB with two slots. Added a 2 TB mechanical drive. Nice gaming rig that can handle some serious games and the occasional CAD work. The one downside is it is heavy and thick (ok two downsides).

    This laptop is good for gaming without spending well over a thousand dollars. Although the mouse hesitates at times, I am satisfied with my purchase because I can use the laptop for school and for gaming. The keyboard has a backlight and the red print on the keys look really cool in the dark.
