    Terrible battery life - averages about 2 hours. Otherwise a very nice laptop. Perfect number and selection of ports for me. Good comfortable keyboard that works well. Touchpad works well. Love the numeric keypad. Works well, not buggy. Can handle several dozen tabs open in Chrome at the same time. Screen is bright and clear enough. Body stays cool and quiet. Wish the Home and End keys were lower on the keyboard. This review is after having used this laptop for around 8 months. I think the battery life was initially a bit better but, for a long time, I have had to get to an outlet fairly quickly which seriously limits how I can use it.

      Dear MTshad,

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for the battery performance issues you are experiencing with your Inspiron 3511. It's important for us to hear about inconsistencies in our products for consideration of future development. Below I have provided steps with the full articles that can help you improve the battery performance of your laptop.

      Here are the steps to help improve the battery performance of your laptop:
      1. On the notification area of the taskbar, right-click the Battery icon.
      2. On the options list, click Power Options.
      3. Select a power plan on the battery meter, such as Power Saver or Balanced. Windows 10 has a built-in 'Battery Saver' mode that can be activated to extend your system's battery life. The Battery Saver mode will monitor and limit background activity and other features such as push notifications. You do have the option to enable or disable this mode within settings or within advanced Battery Saver settings, you can customize the mode to best suit your needs.

      a) Click on the Action Center icon in the taskbar and select the tile for Battery Saver.
      b) If running Cortana, type Battery Saver into the search box and select from the results.
      Within the Battery Saver settings page, you will be able to turn on and off the feature and customize the feature to best meet your needs.
      c) Turn the Battery Saver On or Off.
      d) Additional settings are available via the Battery use and Battery saver settings links.
      e) Battery use shows further info on apps and their power usage.
      f) Battery Saver Settings screen allows you to customize further the Battery Saver feature.
