Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the Inspiron 3880's performance, ease of use, and its small size, frequently citing the good value for the price. However, a significant number of customers noted the lack of a DVD drive as a major drawback. Some also mentioned that the speakers and the amount of RAM could be improved.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    I purchased a Dell Computer, it works great, love it would purchase another one. I had assistance, it was quick I told the person what I wanted and he showed me one that fit my needs we were done shopping. He was very accurate with the information he gave me. It is what I was looking for he listened to me.

    Loud Fan

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I spent a lot of time researching the best desktop for my needs and decided to go with this one. When I brought it home, plugged everything in and turned it on, to my complete shock, the processor fan was immediately going full speed and was really loud! I waited about 30 minutes to see if the fan(s) would settle down, but they didn't. I work from home and there's no way I can work in my quiet office with this loud screeching fan whirly non-stop. Returning this today and getting a different brand. Very disappointed. For the amount of money I spent on this, I expected it to be absolutely quiet.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Posted .

      CustomerL, We're sorry that your laptop is making too much noise for you. Most times customers can reduce the noise in their computers by updating their BIOS: An out-of-date BIOS can cause loud fan noises by having an outdated temperature table for the system. Refer to update BIOS and follow the instructions to update the BIOS on your computer. You can also follow up with our Technical Support Team here - 1-800-624-9896.

    This entire process was great. I went after reviewing Dell computers having questions. The sales person helped me get what i wanted. The process of transferring my data from my old computer was handled very well. This was easy.

    The Greek squared member carried up my computer and removed it from the package. He disconnected the old computer and hooked up my new one as he programmed it , he also added some icons and loaded my Microsoft hardware

    This desktop was exactly what I wanted. It doesn't have a CD/ DVD drive, but I had an external. It had a large SSD and lots of space in the box to upgrade. Nice clean shape, multiple USB slots.
