However, customers are negative about the storage space, battery life, and Windows 10 operating system.

      Tbean,

      Thanks for your review and we're sorry to hear about the freezes that your computer is experiencing. We'd recommend the following steps to diagnose the freezes on your computer:

      1. Run a Computer Diagnostic. To determine if your computer is experiencing a hardware problem, run the Dell Preboot System Assessment (PSA) Diagnostics. For information on how to run Diagnostics, and to determine the issue, refer to Dell Knowledge Base Article: http://dell.to/2iaiujA.
      2. Check Safe Mode for Symptoms. To boot into safe mode, please follow the instructions below:
      a) Start the computer.
      b) Tap 'F8' on the keyboard immediately and every one second until the Dell logo screen disappears. From there you will see the Windows Advanced Options Menu on the screen. (If the Windows Advanced Options Menu does not appear, restart the system and try again.)
      c) Select Safe mode with Networking and press Enter.
      d) Log on as the administrator or as a user with administrative access.
      e) Open applications and test the computer in safe mode. If the symptoms exist in safe mode, please continue the troubleshooting steps in this article. If the symptoms do not exist in safe mode, the issue is likely related to a driver or software and you may wish to complete step 3 to see if you are able to resolve the lockups or freezing.
      3. Check for Malware. Malware (Virus, Spyware, etc.) can definitely cause a Windows system to lock up or appear to hang. To check for malware on your system and to ensure that your computer is up to date on security software, visit Dell Knowledge Base Article: http://dell.to/2wWP1zI.

      You can read the full article here - http://dell.to/2tW5m33.

      We hope that when you get your computer back from being serviced that it works the way you hoped it would.

      Best,
      Bryan

    Super laptop

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    For those reading the not so positive reviews, let me enlighten you. 1. This is a Windows 10 in "S" mode. Meaning it is protecting you from your self. You can opt out but can't go back. 2. Small SSD drive, I'll grant you that but coupled with an Office 365 account that gives you 1 TB of data or a Google account to store your stuff in the cloud, you don't have to worry with data loss. The drive is big enough to hold Windows updates, a problem with the ultra cheap laptops, where you have to put in a jump drive to do updates. I purchased 2 of these for a customer and they setup and work just fine. $300 price point is nice.

    Loved the computer, but doesn’t last long

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I absolutely loved this laptop however, within a couple years, it would only work if plugged in to a Power source. I contacted a company to fix it and they said it was a default in the computer and it would require the whole motherboard to be replaced. Which would cost just as much to get a new computer. I will not buy a Dell again.

    Very impressed

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was so satisfied with the one I bought that convinced a family member to try it too, and they also are highly impressed. This would've still been a great deal without the touchscreen, so that was a bonus. Solid state drive boots in ~15 seconds, 8GB of RAM is more than twice what most users would need. The layout of buttons and ports is simple and clean-looking. Both laptops have been heavily used for a year now and are still going strong!

    I added one $70 from a Lenovo to this one I am fell very comfortable. I am aware about the limit of hard drive space but I cut off several - Mcaffe, windows and dell programs without low priority ( calendar, maintenance, etc...). Great product, I will recommend. ( battery is not great but works).

    Poorly Designed, but Good Functioning Laptop.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    A good laptop to do basic tasks like browsing the internet, projects, homework, etc. The computer has stayed fast and smooth, plus the touch screen is a great addition. However, the physical components of the laptop were POORLY made. The touchpad came up just a few months after the purchase and even after getting it repaired under warranty it isn't the same. Now after 2 years, the power button is malfunctioning causing us to press the power button 20-40 times before the laptop comes on. It's not even worth getting it repaired. I'm not sure if we just purchased a dud, but I would consider a different product.

    Bad Purchase

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Purchased the item today. Everything seemed to go smoothly until the internet browsers just stopped working. Contacted Dell, I was told it was a software issue and that there would be a charge for assistance (Dell only provides hardware support under the warranty). It is not reasonable to purchase a computer and encounter an issue that requires a service charge to correct. I will be returning the computer tomorrow.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      2. Select View all problem reports to view a list of errors that have occurred on your computer and possible solutions for them, such as updating drivers, flashing your system BIOS, or checking for updates to the software.
      3. Under the Source column, look for Windows and under Summary, look for Shut down unexpectedly.
      4. Right-click the line item and select Check for a solution.

      We'd also suggest checking to make sure that your software and drivers are up to date on Dell's Product Page - https://dell.to/2rlFsde.
