Dell's best inexpensive laptops

First of all, we will pay attention to the category that most interests the mass consumer - the most affordable laptops. Experts of expert.bigbadmole.com/en/ considered the two laptops of the famous INSPIRON lineup to be the most successful in this regard. Although the nomenclature of the series differs only in one digit, they differ significantly in technical characteristics.

DELL INSPIRON 5770

Rating: 4.7

Let's start with a model that is more interesting and, accordingly, more expensive. This notebook highlights two things - a large 17.3-inch screen with a matte surface and a wide range of modifications. Thus, if you are guided by the minimum budget, then the equipment should be selected appropriate, and we will describe the possible options below.

So, the big screen of the laptop is equipped with a budget, but quite good-quality TN-matrix in the available options of resolution to choose - either FullHD 1920x1080, or slightly non-standard, but less expensive 1600x900.

The diagonal of the laptop screen naturally determined the dimensions of the laptop - 415.4x279.2x25 mm and its net weight - 2.79 kg. The design is low-key, but elegant, resembling, according to buyers, Apple laptops. Variants of shades - silver "metallic", gray, black.

The choice of processor base proposed by the manufacturer as many as four - Intel Core i3, i5, i7 and Pentium 4415U. The latter is comparable in performance with Core i3. The RAM kit is 4 or 8 GB DDR4 1.6 GHz, the maximum upgrade capability is 16 GB. In the most modest configuration, the video subsystem function will be taken over by the graphics module integrated into the CPU, and in the most advanced, a separate AMD Radeon 530 card with 4 GB memory.

Regarding the "hard" data carriers, in the minimum configuration in the laptop will be installed "slow" mechanical disk 1 TB, and in the maximum it will be supplemented by a "fast" SSD 128 GB.

Communication with networks and external devices: "air" - Wi-Fi class 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.0; wired - Ethernet-card, one port USB 2.0 and 3.1 Type-C, HDMI.

DELL INSPIRON 5570

Rating: 4.6

The second and final point in the group of budget Dell laptop laptops is a more modest in performance, but also a more affordable model of the same INSPIRON line.

The first, and most noticeable, of how this series differs from the previous one is the size of the screen. There is a smaller diagonal - 15.6 ".The resolution of the TN-matrix can be a minimum of 1366x768 or FullHD - 1920x1080. The coating is matte. The dimensions of the laptop are 380x258x19.9 mm, the weight is 2.02 kg. The plastic case can be selected from nine colors, from ordinary ones like white, black or silver, to “exotic” ones like yellow or blue.

DELL offers the processor base from Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 with a frequency of 1.6 to 2.0 GHz. Nominal RAM equipment - 4-8 GB with an after-play reserve of up to 16 GB DDR4 2.4 GHz. As part of the modifications, the graphics subsystems embedded in the processor are Intel HD Graphics 520/620 or a separate AMD Radeon 530 card.

The minimum configuration will be set to “slow” (5400 rpm) HDD up to 1 TB; the maximum assumes a pair of carriers, where the system will be high-speed SSD of 128 GB. It also assumes the presence of a DVD-RW drive and a working socket for removable SD memory.

Connecting to the external environment - wireless Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.1; as well as wired via a standard network card, USB 2.0 or 3.1 Type-C, HDMI.

Despite the budget of the laptop, INSPIRON 5570 in most modifications is equipped with an aesthetic backlight of the keyboard unit.

The best Dell laptops in terms of price-quality ratio

The next selection in the presented rankings are Dell laptops, which, by their combination of characteristics, can be considered the most acceptable to purchase for reasons of performance and cost. We will look at three representatives of different lines - Vostro, INSPIRON and LATITUDE. Looking ahead, let's say that all of them, as expected, have built-in standard integrated jack-jacks for connecting external speakers or headphones and a microphone.

DELL Vostro 5370

Rating: 4.9

The DELL ruler of the DELL laptops doesn’t include as many modifications, but you can still choose the right one. The dramatic difference of this series of modifications from the previous budget pair - compact size, subtlety and lightness.

For the most part, the signs of the laptop fit into the conventional classification of "ultrabook", but the manufacturer does not emphasize this fact. The screen dimension here is 13.3 ", the TN-matrix detailing is proposed in the no-alternative version - 1920x1080. The overall dimensions of the laptop are 323.9x219.9x17.55 mm, the net weight is 1.41 kg.

Processor single-core - Core i5 on 4 cores Kaby Lake-R 1600 MHz. Factory configurations for RAM are 4-8 GB DDR4 1.6 GHz with an upgradeability resource of up to 32 GB in two slots.

In terms of video cards, the situation is comparable to the previous solution: if you choose a modification with a discrete module, then get an AMD Radeon 530 with memory up to 8 GB; The situation is slightly different with the built-in ones - there are two options - INTEL HD (or UHD) Graphics 620.

On hard drives, the selection range is quite limited - either HDD or SSD up to 256 GB. Optical drive no. External memory cards are supported, but only in microSD format.

In terms of communications, the choice is small: two wireless modules - 802.11a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0, a USB 3.1 Type-C connector, HDMI, and an ordinary combo headset connector.

DELL INSPIRON 7577

Rating: 4.8

Further in this group of rating we will consider the laptop of the INSPIRON line, which differs sharply from the previous type of matrix. In this case, it is IPS with all its advantages in terms of adequate color reproduction, large viewing angles and other things. This circumstance, of course, influenced the price of the device, but not only it was one.

So, the resolution of the “fashionable” IPS-matrix in this laptop is 1920x1080 with a screen diagonal of 15 inches. The dimensions of the notebook itself are 389x274.7x24.95 mm.The weight of the packaging is quite impressive - as much as 2.65 kg, but then it becomes clear that "this is not a bug, this is a feature." The body of the laptop is metallic, the options of the dominant colors are red or black to choose from.

The processor base of the laptop is initially quite powerful - there is a choice from Intel's Core i5 or i7 on 4 Kaby Lake-H cores with a frequency of 2.5 or 2.8 GHz, respectively. With the RAM in the original configuration, things are also better than the previous model - 8 or 16 GB DDR4 2400 MHz and upgrade potential to 32 GB. The video subsystem is definitely good - the most popular and available modifications include -NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 / 1050Ti / 1060 with 4-8 GB of memory in different versions.

Finally, hard drive selection options include all possible combinations with types (SSD, HDD or tandem) with volumes up to 1TB for HDD and up to 256 for SSD. There is no DVD-drive, there is SD-card support.

Here is a small note. We mentioned above that the laptop is quite massive, and now it becomes clear why. Even the basic configuration brings the device very close to the class of gaming laptops, which means high-quality and volumetric cooling, which takes up decent space in the case. Actually, this laptop is positioned by the manufacturer as gaming, although it doesn’t try to compete with the market’s “monsters”.

Just a few words about communications. Of contactless communication modules, there are practically obligatory Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 4.2. All the others are a network card, 3 full USB 3.1, USB Type C, HDMI, Thunderbolt 3.

DELL LATITUDE 5590

Rating: 4.7

The DELL laptop group is completed by a remarkable model of the LATITUDE series. This laptop company is no longer positioning as a game, but its characteristics are more than decent, and it is not too far behind the previous model.

The screen size in this case is 15.6 inches, the display is equipped with an IPS-matrix of 1920x1080. Let's be honest, the matrix, though IPS-type, but the benchmarks of Western reviewers show not the most "top" results. The case of high-quality plastic, the only one color variant is black. The keypad is illuminated by LED sources. The dimensions of the device are 376x250.65x20.6 mm, the weight “in pure form” is 1.6 kg.

The processor base of the laptop is a Core i5 or i7. The “speed” of the cores is from 1.6 to 2.6 GHz. The factory assembly implies 8-16 GB OP DDR4 type 2.133 GHz, and the technical capabilities of the platform imply the possibility of upgrading up to 32 GB (there are 2 separate sockets on the motherboard). The possibilities of choosing a video module imply the option of almost completely abandoning any meaningful video games - for this you can be content with the system integrated into the processor, or a slightly better method - discrete NVIDIA GeForce MX130 with 2 GB on board.

With hard drives, the situation is ambiguous. On the one hand, full preference for SSD is good and progressive. On the other hand, the maximum amount of the carrier in 256 or 512 GB by many as of 2024 is already objectively small. No DVD drive, support for external SD memory is available.

Laptop communication capabilities include standard “must have” interfaces and modules like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a network card, and USB of different generations. In the appendage to everything are still VGA (D-Sub), HDMI, DisplayPort

Dell's Top Gaming Laptops

Now go to the short, but one of the brightest topics in the ranking of the best portable Dell computers, according to research expert.bigbadmole.com/en/en/. Here we look at two models of full-fledged gaming laptops. One of them is the famous “ideological” brand Alienware, which previously belonged to a small but independent company created by gamers enthusiasts, and later passed under the wing of Dell, retaining the principles, ideology and attributes.

Alienware 17

Rating: 4.9

Let's start with the brainchild of Alienware and immediately say that already in the nomenclature clearly reflected an important indicator - the screen dimension. She is at this gaming device is an outstanding 17.3 inches. Its dimensions are 413.5х299х48.4 mm, and its mass is 48.4 4.15 kg. Made in a fairly recognizable design Alienware with distinctive attributes. Next, go through the rest of the important characteristics.

With the type of processor, the manufacturer in this case decided not to be particularly dispersed - the choice is limited only by the number of cores - 4 or 6, and belonging to one family - Core i7 from almost unchanged (for good notebooks) Intel, core - Haswell. The notebook is equipped with RAM almost immediately “to the eyeballs” - 16 or 32 GB DDR3L. Four memory slots are allocated for the memory strip, but the system expansion limit is 32 GB, which can quite coincide with the standard configuration. You can choose from 2 variants of dedicated video cards, thereby affecting the final cost of the machine - GeForce GTX 1070 or 880M with 6-8 GB of video memory.

With data storages, installation options are permissible - either a single SSD up to 512 GB, or else an additional mechanical rotating disk up to 1 GB. That is, only tandem is possible. Plus the fact that the modification with HDD implies its “fast” version, with a rotation of 7400 revolutions.

The Wi-Fi module in this case corresponds to the capabilities of the 802.11b standard. Another wireless module is Bluetooth 4.0. Contact connections: Gigabit NIC, USB 3.0 Type A interfaces (4 pieces), HDMI jack, Mini DisplayPort, input / output to external speakers / headphones or microphone separate.

Dell G5 15 5587

Rating: 4.8

Now let's see what the second and last model represents in this selection of rating. There is a noticeable difference in two important items: the laptop is smaller in screen size, and significantly cheaper in price.

So, the screen dimension in this case runs along the bottom of the standard, suitable for gaming laptops - 15.6 inches. The matrix type is better than “medium” —IPS, the details are no more than FullHD 1920 × 1080. The dimensions of the notebook are 389x274.7x24.95 mm, and the weight surprises with its relative modesty, as for the gaming configuration - 2.61 kg. Design executions on the basic shade of the metal case - white, red, black.

With the selection of the processor base, it is already possible to "roam" a little wider than in the previous version, but not too much - i5 or i7 with a frequency of 2.2-2.3 GHz, cores - Coffee Lake 4-6 pieces. "State" installation of RAM - 8 or 16 GB high-performance and fast DDR 2666 MHz. Hardware limit on the upgrade - 32 GB. The situation with graphics cards is quite inspiring - the manufacturer offers a choice of GeForce 1050 / Ti or 1060 with pre-installed video memory up to 16 GB.

The entire range of combinations is available with data storages - from a single 256 GB SSD to a solid state disk tandem and “mechanics” up to 1256 GB of total capacity. The DVD is not laid by the designers in any way; the slot for removable SD memory is working.

Laptop peripheral features include standard wireless connectivity, 1 Gbps LAN card, a set of USB ports of different specifications, HDMI, Thunderbolt 3.

Top Dell Ultrabooks

The next couple of devices in our rating review are Dell's thin and light portable computers, for which the commonly used term “ultrabook” is stable. Most of these laptops, by definition, do not contain optical drives, often (not always) have a small screen size and a stripped down keyboard (without a digital unit) and are often quite hot. But for a number of goals and objectives, not to mention personal preferences, ultrabooks have been and will be relevant and in demand.

DELL LATITUDE 7370

Rating: 4.9

The first number will deal with the characteristics of the laptop line of LATITUDE.Its expressive feature is that in the maximum configuration with a matrix with a resolution it is only slightly under-4K, and in all other respects it is impossible to say that it is particularly outstanding, but quite acceptable.

The mentioned detailing of the matrix is ​​implemented in two versions: FullHD 1920x1080 and advanced - 3200x1800. The screen dimension is 13.3 ", the coating is matte. The matrix type is IPS. The dimensions of the ultrabook are 304.8x210.5x14.32 mm, and the weight with a metal case is 1.12 kg. The color profiles of the case are silver and black.

There are two options for processor configurations to choose from - based on 2-core Core M5 or M7 mobile chips with a frequency of 1.1-1.2 GHz, respectively. RAM-memory - from 4 to 16 GB LPDDR3. The video subsystem is only integral to the central chip - Intel HD Graphics 515 or Intel GMA HD. The choice of hard drives is limited only by SSD-solutions with a capacity of 256 or 512 GB. Removable microSD memory supported.

The set of peripheral interfaces, as for ultrabook, is far from being redundant, but quite sufficient: wireless Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 802.11ac, USB 3.0 Type A connector, micro HDMI output, two Thunderbolt 3 connectors, a Combo-type connection to the headset. The only thing that many clearly lack is a network card with a wired standard interface for "twisted pair".

DELL XPS 12 9250

Rating: 4.8

And the second model in the short selection of the most noticeable ultrabook DELL ratings is already noticeably more affordable in terms of cost, only slightly yielding to the previous model in some characteristics and significantly surpassing in others.

Immediately it is necessary to mention an important point regarding the ultrabook form factor. This is a laptop tablet. It has such an important property of a transformer as the separation of the screen and the keyboard, but at the same time it can be fully considered a transformer only with a big stretch for several reasons.

The screen diagonal of this notebook is very modest - 12.5 ", and here it closely approaches the definition of" netbook ", remaining in the category of full-fledged laptops only thanks to electronic" stuffing ". But the screen resolution is really outstanding - 1920x1080 or 3840x2160 (4K) to choose from. Itself The screen surface is glossy, touch-sensitive with multi-touch support.

Equipping the processor with a laptop is two options from mobile m5 or m7 with a frequency of 1.1-1.2 GHz. The standard RAM is decent in size - 8 GB, but modest in specification - DDR3 with a frequency of 1.6 GHz. The configuration of video subsystems is completely similar to the previous ultrabook, see above. With hard drives in this case, the manufacturer went a little lower - there are two options from SSDs - 128 and 256 GB. There is a slot for removable memory on ExpressCard.

On the part of the interfaces, this device is nevertheless closer to the tablet - there are “mandatory” Wi-Fi b Bluetooth, without which there is nowhere, and from wired connections - only Thunderbolt 3 in the amount of two pieces and a standard combo-output to the headset.

The best laptop convertible Dell

And at the conclusion of the rating of the best DELL portable computers in the opinion of the editorial staff and industry experts at expert.bigbadmole.com/en/en/, we will consider a full-fledged laptop transformer manufactured by this American company.

DELL INSPIRON 5378

Rating: 4.8

This elegant transformer with a high-quality assembled case has a 13.3 "diagonal screen with a high-quality IPS-matrix in two maximum resolution versions - 1366x768 and 1920x1080. The screen is glossy, naturally touch-sensitive with multi-touch. Its dimensions are 324.8x224.4x20.4 mm and the device weighs 1.71 kg Hue only one - metallic.

Not in the example of the two ultrabooks described above, this solution is equipped with a more powerful processor base - Intel Core i3 or i5 to choose from on the basis of two Kaby Lake cores with a frequency of 2.4-2.5 GHz. The standard RAM of the laptop is high-performance DDR4 2400 MHz in the amount of 4 or 8 GB with the possibility of raising up to 16 GB maximum. As for the video subsystem, everything is expected here: only the integrated Intel HD Graphics 520/610/620 in-processor card.Contrary to the expectations of many, the transformer allows the complete set of both SSD and "mechanics" with a capacity of up to 1 TB.

This notebook has the following communications: Bluetooth wireless modules and 802.11ac Wi-Fi generation; Wired connections USB 3.0 Type A in the amount of three pieces, HDMI and a combo-out on the headset / external speakers / microphone.
