Customers are saying

Customers recognize the Inspiron 17.3" laptop's large screen size, good performance, and ease of use as significant advantages. Many appreciate the touchscreen functionality and ample RAM for multitasking. However, some find the laptop heavy and the limited number of USB ports inconvenient. A slow hard drive and the power button placement were also cited as potential drawbacks.

    Great Laptop

    This is my first laptop. I've played with them before but never took the plunge. I love the flexibility laptops provide, and now that I have one I'm a believer. I bought this computer on sale with an amazing Best Buy deal - lots of power without lots of cash. I have an issue with typing and suddenly finding I've unknowingly tabbed to another part of my text where the typing resumes. Not sure if I'm hitting the "mouse pad" area or if something else is happening. Regardless, I'm very pleased with this product.

    Best laptop I have owned so far. Very lightweight to carry around for a 17inch screen. Very good quality laptop for anyone to own!!

    I am reviewing this Dell computer from Quito, Ecuador. I have carried it in a backpack I bought online from Walmart. I had been hesitant to go for the 17" model but don't regret the decision in the least as I love the screen size and clarity...really works for my 63 year old eyes. Also love the backlit keys and touch screen.When it is time to recreate, the horsepower in the video board is simply amazing! I decided to splurge a bit and get a really good computer and this one fills that desire perfectly.

    I was very excited about this laptop and it was beautiful but I didn't like that it didn't have a DVD drive and it was too heavy. It was cool the fact I could use as a tablet but there was no point since I do have a tablet and is so much lighter... if u don't mind a laptop that weighs above 7 pounds then u will love it.

    I've had this laptop for 5 months. This is a great laptop. Still heavy for a 17", but it is super slim! I can use it as a giant tablet when I'm training people at work or watching a movie on the plane. The giant screen allows me to see across and deeply into any of my Excel sheets. The color balance is great. I should have opted for the glare reduction class though--I don't remember if it was offered. It's reliable and has not failed me yet--not even with Win 10!
