    Very fast and perfect for my 12 year old son. It runs 10x faster than his laptop. Very rewarding and fun experience for him.

    This machine is great for performing all everyday tasks at home. Browsing, office software, basic photo/video editing. It's fast and quiet. And it's a great value if you can find an open box unit in excellent condition. The only reason that we replaced our old Dell machine was to upgrade to Windows 11.

    I purchased a Dell Inspiron 3030 Desktop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 512GB SSD - Mist Blue, which is a sleek, powerful machine capable of effortless heavy multitasking. The battery lasts 10+ hours, the build is premium, and the keyboard is excellent. Highly recommend. Shopping at Best Buy was an absolute breeze! Walked in, and the staff greeted me with genuine smiles and zero pressure. The Geek Squad rep knew the Dell XPS 15 inside and out, answered all my questions, and even price-matched an online deal on the spot—saving me $300! Checkout was lightning-fast, and they helped load it into my car. Online order pickup? Flawless before. Returns policy? Stress-free. Best Buy just nails customer service—I’m a fan for life!

    The speed of this Dell is amazing (especially compared to my 15-year-old Dell it's replacing). I read in one of the reviews that the person couldn't connect it to his monitor. I would have had the same problem, except that my circa 2017 monitor (HP) came with two types of cables, and the second one worked with the new Dell. I'm very happy with the computer, as it is my third Dell. I wouldn't buy anything else. And I always buy them at Best Buy!

    This computer is so fast compared to the old one. The old one would freeze all the time. This one lets me listen to videos without slowing to buffer. I can play my Facebook games without the computer freezing to catch up in the background. It has more storage than my old one. It is so easy to use. When I put in my password, it comes right up and ready for use.

    I bought this computer when my HP died. I have always been an HP buyer. The Best Buy customer service helped me. I got a better system for the same price as the HP, and got more Memory, a bigger SSD memory. The Dell is very fast. Not a gaming computer.

    I'm no computer whiz, but needed a new one to replace my ancient Dell pc. This one fits the bill. It works flawless, so far. I've heard all kinds of stories about Windows 11 issues, so far it's been all good. Just had a bit of a sign in microsoft deal on the initial start up, but the Geek Squad fixed in it about 3 minutes. Now, if I could just find a program to keep my kitten from walking all over my keyboard when I'm trying to get some work done

    The computer arrived as promised, intact. It was set up by Brian O'Dell. Brian did an excellent job and was very helpful to seniors who are behind the techie curve. My wife Sandy is delighted with her new Dell 3030. She feels she is back on the internet in real time. We are so pleased, I bought an HP TE01-5354 to replace my aging Acer Aspire. Brian is scheduled for set up next week.

    A great buy. I use it for working from home and am very pleased with the performance. I also like the smaller, compact tower since it doesn’t take up as much room on my desk.
