    This Dell Inspiron 15.6" Touch-Screen Laptop is a sweet little laptop computer! I really like it! It's sleek and compact and does a great job. I've always been pleased with the Dell products, and this computer meets the mark yet again. It's got a great touch screen that works really nicely - I didn't think I would like a touch screen but turns out I do! You can also use a wired or wireless mouse if you prefer - I'm using a wireless mouse in conjunction with the touch screen. The graphics are great and the screen look great too. This is a perfect computer for me to take on my trips so I can stay connected. Fits great in my current laptop bag as well. I'd recommend this laptop to anyone in the market to purchase.

    Got this as a present for my daughter when her other laptop started to not perform as well during her last year in college. She has been pleased overall. Would definitely recommend for the price.

    I bought this for my wife to get I-5 performance. It performs better than her previous I-3, seemingly a lot faster/smoother. However, it doesn't seem to be too sturdy. The plastics seem thin, giving you the impression that it wouldn't take too much to break it. That doesn't matter so much to us, since it will be stationary and not carried out. One other thing I find annoying it that it is set up with Windows 10-S... and has been a pain to switch it to 10-Home. I'll eventually get that all figured out, but for an inexpensive !-5, it will do the job.

      Medic511,

      We are glad that your computer is working well for the most part. If you still need helping transitioning out of Windows 10 S Mode, you can follow these steps:

      'Windows 10 in S mode is designed for security and performance, exclusively running apps from the Microsoft Store. If you want to install an app that isn't available in the Microsoft Store, you'll need to switch out of S mode. Switching out of S mode is one-way. If you make the switch, you won't be able to go back to Windows 10 in S mode. There's no charge to switch out of S mode.

      1. On your PC running Windows 10 in S mode, open Settings > Update & Security > Activation.
      2. In the Switch to Windows 10 Home or Switch to Windows 10 Pro section, select Go to the Store. (If you also see an "Upgrade your edition of Windows" section, be careful not to click the "Go to the Store" link that appears there.)
      3. On the Switch out of S mode (or similar) page that appears in the Microsoft Store, select the Get button. After you see a confirmation message on the page, you'll be able to install apps from outside of the Microsoft Store.

      Best,
      Bryan

    I purchased this as a gift for my mom because it was affordable and the ease of use seemed simple. I didn't get a chance to give to her right away but when I did help set up the laptop,I noticed the TouchPad lifts up and it can be pushed down but then lifts back up within 5 to 10 minutes. The 15 days had passed by the time I noticed this and was unable to return and I did not purchase the protection because I figured the price for it was not worth it. Definitely make sure you check that touch pad out within the returnable period

    This is the fastest laptop I’ve ever owned. Even though the price was less than $400.00 I’m able to turn it on and get to the login screen in 19 seconds. Shutting it down takes about 8 seconds.

    the time finally came to upgrade from my MacBook circa 2006. i loved my macbook and after many years of amazing service I found myself unable to upgrade the software anymore and effectively browse the web. my computing needs changed since I invested in my last computer and as such i could no longer justify the price for a mac. I bought this Dell on sale for $349, I bought it primarily to handle light computing such as streaming and browsing the web. I do edit and load gopro video and it seems to do that just fine. overall I am satisfied with the performance, the battery life is good, the display is nice, I do like that is is large enough to have a number pad.

    This was a pure impulse buy. It wasn’t that I wasn’t happy with my other laptop, but holy crap. I’ve only had my other laptop for less then a year, and I wasn’t really complaining, but it did leave me feeling that I wanted more. This is so far the best laptop I’ve ever owned. It easily surpasses my old one in every category of speed, it’s almost instant thanks to the processor and the solid state drive, there is also one perk that wasn’t listed and that is that the screen is also 4K capable, which means that I can plug it into my 4K tv and it’s the same resolution which makes it seamless for videos. Couldn’t have asked for more.

    I have been using this laptop for past 9 months, it’s a budget friendly laptop with great battery back up. Without any calls I am getting around 6hrs and with mixed usage I get around 4.5 - 5 hours. Sometimes the system gets stuck all of a sudden and sometimes it wouldn’t turn on even with full charge. After long press of power button for 5 seconds then it would turn on. Except the couple of issues it’s a decent laptop with decent specs and configuration. It’s is fast because if it’s SSD, once you start using it you will not go back to use Hard drive laptops.

    This Dell laptop has a lot going for it. The 8GB and 256GB SSD make a great combination allowing the Core i5 its full speedy potential. The touchscreen is a bonus. I like the Ethernet network port as many newer laptops do not have this anymore. Excellent value.
