Not bad at all, But...
By UnbiasedReview-com on October 14, 2013
The Dell Inspiron 15 i15RV-953BLK is a 15-inch notebook that provides great esthetics in addition to a strong build quality. It is designed for all users, novice and advanced, and is reasonably priced compared to other notebooks in its class.

The Inspiron 15 is a quiet but powerful notebook with a sleek appearance and clean design. The screen is vibrant and large for viewing media, with speakers loud enough to fill a room. The Intel Pentium 2127U dual-core processor makes it speedy enough for standard usage and makes it a suitable replacement for a desktop. Its 4 GB of RAM help it keep up with the pricier competition.

Build and Design

The newer Inspiron model provides a sleeker more modern look than older models. It features a hinge design with the screen located in front of the chassis. This allows the user to move the screen closer to the keyboard making the action seem closer. The exterior of the 15R model is very elegant with its screen cover having a brushed metal appearance which gives the look of metal but the flair of a painted surface. The outer surface is actually easier to clean this way. This same design is displayed inside the notebook, on the hand rest and the trim around the keyboard.

The shell is built with around a strong chassis with thick, durable plastic. The chassis resists bending and the hand rest and keyboard are supportive, remaining intact under strong pressure. Unlike previous models, the 15R is able to resist screen wiggling back-and-forth or side-to-side. This is largely due to the fact that hinges on each side keep the screen into a firmly locked position, only moving once lifted or closed.

Upgrading the hardware is simpler than ever. To perform memory upgrades, there is only one panel on the bottom of the machine.Read more ›

Great buy
By Jennifer on October 21, 2013
Verified Purchase
I love this computer. I only paid $349, plus an extra $10 for shipping and had it the next day at 10 a.m. after my other laptop's motherboard died. It functions well and looks good. I've purchased other laptops for less than $400 and this one is my favorite. It has a CD player, USB, basically everything you need.

i thought this laptop would be cheap because the price was so low (354). It's actually great! Absolutely wonderful! the size is perfect, the screen is stupendous, keyboard is great. its pretty fast too!! Plus it has Bluetooth and a CD drive. I had an acer aspire one which doesn't compare to this laptop. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. :D :D

You get what you paid for...

Two days after receiving this computer it would not turn on. I removed the battery (it was already in the laptop when it arrived) and put it back in. After that it did turn on, so I ran a full test to see if their where any problems. At this point I had not download any programs to this laptop. I wait about one week before downloading Microsoft Office. I really needed a computer and this was the third one that I had gotten in a two week period. I did not sent it back and it has been working great most of the time. It still have start up problems sometimes but as long as it last for the next 4 months it will be okay. This computer was under 400 dollars and I did not expect it to be fast or do a lot of thing. The speakers or amazing compared to my last laptop and over all this laptop is very user friendly.

"A Tale of Two Entities"
By MX2150 on November 20, 2013
Verified Purchase
This is a tale of two entities; the physical hardware and Windows 8(and now 8.1).
I bought this computer to replace my wife's 10 year old Dell desktop which was running Windows XP SP3. Too slow and too clunky, she said.

At this point I am tempted to digress into the many quirks of Windows 8(like the font spontaneously changing in Outlook or printer availabilty being app dependent) but, nevermind, you can Google these yourselves.

A important feature of the hardware is that it does not have a touchscreen; a primary target of Windows 8. So many of the vaunted features of this release are lost on this device.

Unless I missed something, this computer arrived with no CD and virtually no documentation. There was a folded, single sheet, quick start user guide which basically says plug in, turn on, follow instructions.

Having said that, I have no complaints about the hardware apart for the lack of documentation. It does come up quickly and provides a crisp display for all applications.

This computer has been plugged in for about a month yet I noticed that the battery was a little over half charged. After wading through a few menus I discovered this is intentional so as not to tax the NiCad batteries and can be disabled. Maybe they forgot to send me all the documentation.

The final twist to this: before I deposited the old Dell to the electronic reycling heap, I decided to clean it up with a program called Defender Pro(available on Amazon for $4). The performance improvement is amazing. In fact, if I had done this first, I might not have bought the Inspiron.
