    Computer is fast to boot up, runs quiet and cool. Multi tasking is quick thanks to the SSD hard drive and memory. Graphics are ok, if you are looking for true HD, then you will want a better laptop and video card, otherwise great computer so far.

    I think this laptop has great features and the price was really good. Unfortunately, the wireless N card is a bit outdated for the internet we have equipped at home. I would recommend this laptop to any students, start up is fast thanks to the SSD. Don't really use the touchscreen. The speakers sounded a bit off too. Overall a solid beginners laptop.

    Bought this to use on the road for business and it could not have worked out any better. I use it with a "Hotspot" to look up providers and formularies and enroll clients into Health Plans. I do not use it for anything else. Computer has plenty of speed and space for a dedicated business tool. I recommend this for traveling business people.

    Takes a while to get to use the touchscreen but when you do it is a time saver. Like the solid state drive, all computers should come with it.

    I’ve always had good experiences with Dell Inspirons so I figured I’d give them another try. However, I am left extremely disappointed with this laptop. The build: very flimsy, cheap plastic that caves under slight pressure from hands or wrists The sound: almost nonexistent, even though that would almost be better than the cheap quality of audio that comes with this laptop Mousepad: again, feels like it’s made of the cheapest materials they could possibly find ; and the mousepad doesn’t respond to touch or clicks as well as you’d think I guess it’d be an okay laptop for a beginner but it needs several upgrades in order to be good and a complete makeover to be great. It’s definitely not built like the old inspirons so don’t expect it to be.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Kayy,

      We're sorry that your computer is not performing exactly the way you hoped it would. If you'd like to re-calibrate your touchpad you can follow these steps:

      Some Notebooks and Tablets with Keyboards have added gesture features to the touchpad hardware and drivers. A few of these features are two or three finger scrolling, pinch zoom, circle zoom, rotate and swiping. These new features may be the reason for the erratic cursor movement since most are turned on by default. You can disable or modify the way the features work in the touchpad driver properties. Here are some tips to modify these settings:

      1. In the Search box, type main.cpl.
      2. Touch or click main.cpl in the list of programs.
      3. Touch or click the Dell Touchpad tab.
      4. Touch or click on the picture of the touchpad.
      5. Touch or click Gestures (depending on your computer there may not be a Gestures option).
      6. Change the options as preferred.
      7. Touch or click Save.
      8. Touch or click the X in the upper-right corner to close the Dell Touchpad Utility.
      9. Touch or click OK on the Mouse Properties window.
      10. If the touchpad still does not work after following the preceding steps, refer to Dell Knowledge Base article - http://dell.to/2iaiujA.

      You can read the full article here - http://dell.to/2tqmS02.

      If you'd like to see if there is an audio driver update available for your computer you can visit your Product Support Page here: http://dell.to/2yzSu7o.

      We hope that these tips help your computer perform better for you.

      Best,
      Bryan
