Dell Inspiron i7359-8404SLV 7000 series is a convertible 2-in-1 touch display laptop with a premium look and feel. It includes the sixth generation dual core power efficient- low voltage, very fast and powerful Intel i7-6500U (4MB L3 cache) at 2.5GHz speed up to 3.1GHz with turbo boost and hyper threading for 2 cores and 4 threads and with a Passmark score of 4274 as of now, multitasking power of 8 GB DDR3L SDRAM at 1600 MHz, generous 256 GB (2.5″ SATA 3) Solid State Drive without moving parts as good amount of storage and much faster reading and writing of files and starting the Windows 10 64-bit OS much quicker.

LED-backlit 13.3 inch Truelife 10-finger capacitive touchscreen comes with the Full HD 1920x1080 pixel resolution for very sharp and clear picture quality and IPS panel for the image quality not to be distorted at up to 178 degree viewing angles. You can adjust the screen between FHD and HD resolutions to adjust the text size if a little small for you. Intel HD 520 graphics with a G3D score of 836 makes it a little faster than the also latest generation Intel HD 6000 and 5200 GPU’s but it is still an integrated card so it should be able to handle the latest games of 2015 at only low settings. It comes with good quality integrated stereo speakers with MaxxAudio for better sound output and realistic sound and a good quality high definition webcam of 1280x720 pixel resolution with dual digital microphone. With the silver chassis Dell Inspiron you’re getting two great modern machines in one: A powerful and highly capable laptop and a flexible tablet. It includes a backlit and ergonomic keyboard without the numeric pad but a good size touchpad and the 3-cell 43Whr battery lithium ion integrated battery (that is not easily replaceable) offers up to 8 hours of battery life in average use like surfing the net.

Inspiron weighs 3.66 pounds and measures 12.99 x 8.74 x 0.75 inches and being a compact and slim device it doesn’t come with an Optical Drive and no built-in Ethernet with RJ-45 (which is cheap and easy to get with a USB adapter) but include the fast and wide coverage dual band 802.11ac wireless + Bluetooth 4.0, 2 x USB 3.0 ports (one of them with Power Share), 1 x USB 2.0 port, an HDMI output for you to conveniently connect to an external display or HDTV, and 2-in-1 Media Card Reader. Everything will run smoothly and efficiently and 8GB RAM on a single socket is plenty and can not be upgraded in case you need more as a very advanced user. You don’t get an additional slot for a drive but if you are a technical person you can certainly replace it with a higher capacity SSD. It is not designed to be an advanced gaming machine as it doesn’t include an at least mid-range dedicated graphics card and you won’t really experience any lagging or freezing unless you try to play very demanding games. The price is a little higher than average, being a convertible 2-in-1 machine with i7, 8GB, SSD, a 360 rotating touch screen for tablet, stand, tent and laptop modes along with other features for business, school or daily entertainment use and it is quite a decent computer overall.
