    Bought a computer during a promotion picked it up on Wednesday took it to my daughter on Thursday she reported it get hot as soon as she turn it on , brought it back only to learn the cooling system is not working. The sale is over when I ask to speak to the manager or supervisor. The gentleman that came was so unprofessional, he disrespectful spoke to the associate team then turned to me and said" Nest buy is does not a big mark up on computer if it is accessories I will listen to see what I can do best buy will not lose money to please you so you buy it at the price or find another computer that fits your budget ". I am not disappointed because I did not get it at price when it was on sale, I felt he did listen he was disrespectful to his peers and customer and should not be in any leadership role. You lead by example he had a teachable moment to show his team how to have lead and mediate a concern. The score of two is for the associate that helped us the first time and when he saw us again he was so sorry though it was not his fault.

    Very nice build quality and has some great features such as a thunderbolt port. Came in handy for charging when I forgot my charger one day. Fingerprint reader in the on/off button provides good security. Really disappointed with the RAM and upgradeability in general. Came with 8GB and I had planned on upgrading in the near future but am unable since the RAM is soldered in. As is the SSD. No upgrades are possible. My bad since that is disclosed in the reviews but not the product description. 8GB is not enough if you use a resource hog like WebEx along with a couple of add’l apps. This thing crashes on a regular basis. I am giving this away and buying. Frankly, the max RAM of 16GB does not future proof this device. If you are willing to ante up and pay for the fully loaded laptop, you will be happy for a couple of years. If you cheap out and think you can save a few bucks by upgrading yourself, you will be very disappointed.

    We had the Laptop 45 days and the camera failed, and the Laptop got so hot my wife could not hold it. We went through 'troubleshooting' for 3 hours, for DELL to say, yeah it's not working. We shipped it to them and they have had the Laptop longer then we had it! NOT HAPPY!

      DELL2in1,

      We're sorry to hear about the issues that you've had with your computer so far. In the future we'd recommend the following tips to help your computer perform at a cooler temperature:

      Tips for Proper Usage:

      1. Dell does not recommend placing portable systems directly on your lap. Due to reductions in the thickness of modern portable systems, heat transfer can be an issue.
      2. Using a portable system (Laptop) on a hard, flat, non-cloth surface will increase airflow and reduce heat from underneath and inside the system.
      Using the portable system on a blanket, pillow, or other types of cloth will cover up the fan cause the computer to overheat and can cause permanent damage.
      3. It is recommended to use the portable system in a Room temperature of 0°C to 35°C (32°F to 95°F) with a Humidity level no greater than 90%.
      4. Use compressed air to clean the vents on a regular basis.
      5. Using a cooling pad can decrease heat and increase performance.
      6. If you want to know the temperature limitations for your system, go to the Dell Support Website, look up your system model then open the user guide under the manuals link.

    This was a great laptop at first look, but when I began using it, it was overheating way too much. I could feel the heat through the keyboard buttons and on my legs when I’m relaxing and using it. Tried all setting changes in and throughout the whole system and nothing helped
