Bad experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very bad experience with this computer. after 11 months. The charging port Became loose and the charging cord can not be inserted in properly in the charging port. I took it to the Geek squad and they told me that they have to replace the whole motherboard because it's al one piece with the charging port. and because I was late for fiw days before taking the computer to the Geek squad I lost my 1 year warranty and the $1500 I spent on it. the charging port is very weak. don't buy this kind of computers coming with C type of charging cord. Even the software has problem of sticking in blue screen at the start

Stay away, Poor Quality Control
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Touchscreen and Active pen would not work out of the box. Terrible quality control. Was on the phone with tech support for over 3 hours. Re-flashed the BIOS, System Updates, and still no luck. Even a full system restore did not work or bring it back. I was advised by tech support to return it to the store. Pretty bad when they tell you to do that. Needless to say, I returned it for the ASUS Rog and couldn't be happier. I wanted to like this laptop but it would not let me. I will never be buying a Dell again. Lesson learned.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.there is some texhincal issue with the laptop. I cannot work for more than 30 mins as the blue screen error shows up. I have contacted dell support team in India for atleast 20 times in last 50 days and i still dont have a solution. I could not return the laptop in the first place as I am visiting india. I dont know what tondo now and i feel like i have been cheated. This is something that i would never expect from bestbuy. I am really unhappy with the purchase and would want to have a refund or atleast my laptop changed/repaired. I have not been able to work on it since the day i bought it. I am sorry but i dont know what to do right now and i am feeling very helpless.

Posted .mpan,
Thanks for your review and we're sorry to hear about the overheating that you're experiencing with your new computer. We'd recommend the following tips to help your computer perform at a lower 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.

Checked updates on apps and drivers, no solutions. Tried factory reset, boot win10 (was given both options on boot) complete disaster. Runs for 2-3mins, crash, blue screen eror, reboot. Tried safe mode reboot, the 5 or 6 options to boot ALL throw an error code saying "something went wrong". Ive had this PC 1 week and will return as soon as i can get to a BB.

Damage computer Charged port
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am extremely frustrated and unhappy because I bought this laptop for my son who is going to college tomorrow and since we were working on it I had observed that it did not get charge. I went to the store Best Buy and the solution is that I have to make an appointment to have it get repaired because it is possible that the port of the connection to charge is damaged. “I have bought a damage computer” and now I have to wait two weeks for it to be repaired and my son needs the computer.

Constant problems
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the third Dell I've owned and by far the worst. The built in keyboard isn't always recognized by the machine, so it's basically an awkward tablet. When the keyboard randomly disconnects, the screen sometimes goes black and the computer needs to be restarted. It's impossible to get any work done on this machine. I want to get rid of it as soon as I can and will not look into another Dell after this.
