    Software Compatibility Issues

    I like this laptop. it is fast and reasonable price but has several software compatibility issues due to SnapDragon chip: (1) does not recognize my scanner; 2) does not have fully compatibility with Zoom; (3) Nord VPN is not compatible. Supposedly Nord VPN is working on a solution. I am considering returning this laptop. If HP, Zoom, and NordVPN update their software to be SnapDragon-compatible, I will keep this laptop. My suggestion: before you purchase this laptop, research about its compatibility with the software applications you use. Otherwise, this is a great laptop - lightweight, good display, lots of ports. There is a lot of good in this laptop.

    Super fast and light on the lap this laptop exceeded my expectations. Added bonus i dont have to worry about the charger. I can charge it up from my phone charger which makes travel easier. Flawlessly runs high memory programs simultaneously. Used for business purposes. But you can keep copilot. It didnt even know what version it was.

    Really like my new laptop, had to purchase since microsoft would no longer be supporting my old windows. This one is a little smaller now 14". Do like the smaller size is lightweight and easy to handle. Very speedy since my other laptop was slowing down.

    I recently purchased a Dell laptop, and I’m impressed. Here’s why: User-Friendly: The interface is intuitive, making it easy to navigate. Whether you’re a tech-savvy user or a beginner, you’ll feel comfortable using this laptop. Perfect Size: Dell struck the right balance with the size. It’s not too big to be cumbersome, yet not too small to compromise usability. Fast Processing: The laptop’s processing speed is remarkable. Whether you’re multitasking or running resource-intensive applications, it handles everything swiftly. Overall, I highly recommend this Dell laptop for its user-friendly design, ideal size, and impressive performance.

    I've been a bit hesitant to jump on a Dell Inspiron as back in the day when I worked at Best Buy, I saw quite a bit of poor driver issues on Dell units in general. It's been a while, hoping they've improved. The screen on this is surprisingly bright and crisp. The keyboard is the best I've used. The trackpad could be better, but definitely not bad. ARM is much more mature than it used to be. I only felt as though ARM wasn't ready in one circumstance - using Android Studio. Getting it to install was impossible, and then getting SDKs to install was a nightmare. I'd given up, and was about to consider swapping to the midnight blue Ryzen 7 model that's on sale this week, but somehow at some point Android Studio properly installed everything. I'm aware it's not ARM-native, so it does take a hit on battery life compared to if it was; and you also can't use the emulator (must use a physical device). These are both fine as this also isn't my main device (my main device is an SLS1). The rest of my use is entirely ARM-native. Battery life is also superb. Hope this device lasts me; the Ryzen HP Envy 14 I previously had crapped out within a few months. I cautiously recommend this, noting that you need to do research on whether the software you use is compatible, and further, that even if it all is, that you may end up needing software down the road that isn't and maybe doesn't even work with the Prism emulation layer. Overall, though, I think 95% of users will enjoy this.

    I had a need for an affordable laptop that had the portability for working remotely and could still power the few games I play. I picked up an open-box at Best Buy Outlet, so affordable was an easy one. At 3lbs and 14", it's certainly portable. The supplied power adapter is a good length, and you can't go wrong with the litany of options for USB-C PD. The battery life is great, I've worked a full day without plugging in and still had half the battery life remaining. I've been really impressed by the depth of color and contrast for an LED display. The speakers are legitimately the best I've heard from a laptop, they're not perfect but far away from the tinny sound you normally get. I don't play any graphically intense games, but the ones I do play have rated the 3D rendering better than my desktop GPU. I wasn't able to install the Epic Games launcher, which seemed to be incompatible with ARM architecture. The only other software incompatibility I've found was GData. I'm only three months in but have no regrets. My only one gripe is the trackpad is too sensitive, it frequently ghost taps between highlighting and right clicking text.

    After using it for a couple of months, I can confirm is it an excellent product. It is fast, light-weight, and rarely heats up. It also looks sleek and nice! Love it and would recommend.

    The computer works pretty good. It has all the basic features that other computers have but the thing that makes this one standout is that is a copilot button so that you can access copilot at any time. It also has a touchscreen and a backlit keyboard. The only thing I don't like is that there is limited flexibility, the laptop barely moves past 90 degrees so you can't tilt it all the way.

    The Dell Inspiron 14 Plus with Snapdragon X+ is a sleek, portable laptop perfect for productivity and everyday use. Powered by the Snapdragon platform, it ensures smooth multitasking while delivering exceptional battery life of up to 12 hours. The vibrant display enhances work and entertainment, though it can struggle in bright environments. This laptop is lightweight and efficient, making it ideal for students and professionals, though not suited for intensive gaming or heavy creative workloads. A reliable choice for those on the go.

    Replaced an HP 14" laptop. I like Dell because you only get the software you need not bloatware. All the features that make a good laptop; backlit keyboard, touch screen, good audio and sufficient memory for home use. Great for the price.
