Dell Inspiron (i15RV-954BLK) 15.6-Inch Laptop (Intel Pentium-2127U Processor - 4 GB DDR3L SDRAM) |
Dell Inspiron i15RV-954BLK offers you impressive performance at a surprisingly low cost. Mind you, it doesn't have the latest specs (mostly you won't need) or the most powerful processor, but enough of everything to take care of the daily tasks, which makes it perfect for students and everyday home entertainment or basic office computing.
The redesigned Inspiron 15 starts at just over 1" thin - that's 21% thinner than the 2011 model - so you get all the performance you need, with a little more room in your bag for the other things that matter.
The notebook you're looking at is from the budget 15" non-touch offerings released in 3quarter of 2013, the Dell Inspiron i15RV. The backbone is handled by Intel Pentium 2127U (from IvyBridge architecture release summer of 2013, just couple of months before Intel CPU based Haswell notebooks was introduced to the market), computer's response time is good even for a lower tier CPU its very capable in delivering on performance for most users. It also comes with an Intel HD Graphics that's certainly great for light gaming such as Mindcraft, Microsoft Store games and Facebook games. Sadly its not touch capable screen 15.6" 720p screen delivers good detail and clarity but slightly washed out but that's standard for budget priced notebooks (if ur really picky with your screens then go out to bestbuy and check it out in person). Great built in features including webcam, hdmi port, card reader, disc drive, 2x USB 2.0, 2x USB3.0 which makes this laptop very versatile to be considered as a secondary main home pc. The sound speakers on this is rather louder than some other notebooks in this class, such as Gateway's budget 15" notebook. Its made out of plastic, all around which is again not a surprise. I like the feel and quality of the plastic they used on here but other companies such as Lenovo or Asus's budget line feels a bit more sturdy and solid in weight and touch.

| Dell Inspiron (i15RV-954BLK) 15.6-Inch Laptop |
This 15.6 inch model is very kind on the eyes due to the large screen, very kind on the body because of its under 3kg weight in spite of higher capacity, high speed and high memory. A good 500GB 5400RPM for storage capacity means more storage for music games videos and files. This notebook brings a lot of value for the money. With every kind of software becoming increasingly massive, one requires the highest possible processing power even for using a good Word-processor comfortably. If one is a power-user, the requirements are higher.
Windows 8.1 is a challenge to get used to to say the least but hopefully worth the aggravation. Automatically sync your files and photos to the cloud for easy access from all your devices. And pick up your favorite apps from the Windows Store — apps in Windows 8 work together to get things done faster. The photo does not do the size justice as it is blessedly larger than expected. It comes with McAfee installed so I nearly gave it only three stars but I found the control panel and can uninstall the McAfee virus easily (McAfee is junk). It is a slim machine with a textured surface on the deck top and lid. The no frills sleek look is typical of dell.
Portable with 1 inch thin body and modern stylish looks with black matte and textured lid and palm rest. 4-cell Lithium ion battery for decent battery life- over 4 hours in normal use. 802.11bgn wireless, Gigabit Ethernet, 2 x USB 2.0 Ports, 2 x Number of USB 3.0 Ports, HDMI port, 8X CD / DVD Burner (Dual Layer DVD+/-R Drive) for connectivity.
