Great option
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've only had this laptop for about a month so I can't attest to its longevity, but it's perfect for the basic, everyday use of a college student. The only thing keeping it from being 5 stars for me is that the battery life seems to drain pretty quickly.

Excellent purchase!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent purchase. I have been a user of Dell products for quite some time and this machine is working wonderfully as I would expect. The price was amazing and unexpected. Especially since it included a touch screen and a few other niceties that would not be on a machine priced this low.

Great compact, very quiet.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice compact size. Very quiet. I dont think the fan really came on while i had the unit. I did have to return, the HDMI now only sends out low resolution. I needed higher resolution for an external 34" ultrawide screen.

it's what's not inside.

Pros and Cons
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are pros & cons. Pro - well priced. Cons 1) No backlight on keyboard & keyboard seems designed off-center by a single key....very strange. 2) Speakers mounted on bottom - very muffled. 3) Final con Is Microsoft itself (not Dell's fault) - comes prepackaged in 'S-Mode' preventing you from uploading any program or changing your search engine (other than Edge) that did not come directly from 'Microsoft Store' (very predatory). Easy fix is to hit Microsoft website and from there toggle Microsoft to take your computer out of S-Mode (the change is permanent)....thank goodness.
