Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Series I7548-2129SLV 15.6-Inch Touchscreen Laptop (5th Gen Core i5-5200U Processor, 1Tb Hard Drive, 6GB RAM, Windows 8.1), Silver

Great Laptop, Bought it for school and its Ive had it for about 6 months and it's been awesome. The battery life is good, as long as you leave the keyboard lights off it'll last you for most of the day. I use alot of memory intensive programs like Autocad alot and it runs fine, the screen resolution makes it even better for that. The touchpad feels kinda cheap and every now and then it stops working but I normally use a mouse and the problem is easily solved with a restart so it doesn't really bother me. But yea its great looking and is awesome, gotten plenty of compliments. Touch screen is cool too I love it!

Nice looking laptop, but had a serious screen flicker problem out of the box. I could not work around it, without setting really dim display brightness and lower resolution than I paid for. (It's interesting that one of the poor reviews below was also for the same issue - maybe that person received the same item?). I rated above one star because the seller did quickly issue a refund, no questions asked (although, did not pay for shipping, which I knew about up front...). Don't order this model from this seller, at least.

Very nice laptop, beautiful bright sharp touch screen, seems speedy enough so far. Very quiet, fan only comes on occasionally if I'm working it hard. Surprisingly good sound from a laptop, a little thin but overall not bad. Nice build quality, the metal casing feels great! Having problems with Bluetooth but that is probably a Windows 10 thing I'm guessing. Although upgrade to Windows 10 was simple. Only other minor niggle I have is that the keyboard is a little flat. Easy for my fingers to slip off into other keys cause the fall of the key isn't great and that bugs me. Not an issue for most I'm sure but I prefer a bit more feedback from a keyboard personally. All together a very nice laptop for the price.

I really hoped this computer would work out -- the screen is fabulous, the build quality great. But something was wrong -- I don't know what -- and it was incredibly slow, 30 seconds to open a file, 3 or 4 minutes to start up, so I had to return it. Maybe it had to do with my installation of Windows 10. Anyway, Amazon return policy is fabulous, saved the day!

I have been using it for a couple of days now. It is a nice laptop - fast, light, good display and quiet. However it has some of what I consider drawbacks although others may like these aspects. The touch pad is HUGE. This means that the keyboard is pushed way back towards the display which makes it is a reach to get to the keys. Also, the keypad is a bit on the small side for my liking. If I had actually poked around on this laptop before purchasing it I probably would not have bought it only because of the user interface. Who knows, after I get used to it I may change my mind and start to really like it.

This is a great laptop for the price. It was one of the few laptops that had 1920x1080 resolution and backlit keyboard in this price range. I'm not sure if I'll regret not going for the model with the dedicated graphics card and 4K resolution, however this still lets me use photoshop without an issue. Most of the time I use my custom desktop for major photo/video editing and running aircrack-ng against dictionaries. It was worth purchasing the lower end model price wise without the 12GB ram and ssd drive upgrade. I was able to purchase 16GB ram for 74.00 and installed a Samsung Evo 850 500GB SSD drive for 174.00. After those upgrades it will meet all my needs for awhile. I've also dual booted this with Kali Linux 2.0 and Windows 10. I didn't run into any driver issues thank God. This is a Ubuntu certified laptop so if you want linux on it this will work for you as well. *****If you buy this laptop you will definitely want to put an ssd drive in it immediately.Every computer I own has one so starting this computer up was a reminder of how much of a difference they truly make****** Cons -Trackpad is horrible with Windows 10. I'm hoping a driver update is issued eventually. -No SSD Drive
