I bought the Dell 17-7000 directly from the company and today it was delivered. First impressions: like you said, I wanted a desktop replacement and this heavy duty box has the specs for serious data analytical and GIS mapping work. I ordered it with a Seagate Backup Portable Storage hard drive along with Logitech Ultrathin touch mouse and I plan on hooking it up with a second monitor. I like the industrial simplicity of its design and it has the feel of a computer fitting in an office or out in the field. I'll have it professionally configured for optimal performance and easy workflow, so there is every reason to believe this laptop should run like a champ.
I have a Dell 17 inch for more than 3 years, and I am even surprised because it's been doing the work great so far. The other laptop I work with side to side is a Macbook 2015, so far this Dell is not backing off, so am Glad!
The newest 15 inch model now has Infinity Edge screen like the XPS according to the Dell RUclips channel. Looking forward to a 17 inch Infinity Edge screen! Hopefully I have the cash to splurge by then.
The reason I am finding that they do not put a 7200RPM drive in these laptops is the height of the drive. Most 7200RPM 2.5" drives are 9mm tall. The space for physical drive is limited to 7mm in some machines. So you could not even change to a 7200rpm drive if you wanted to. Easiest thing now is to just swap that 2.5mm with a 1 TB SSD drive to get the better speed. There are slower SSD's that would be great for storage area, and use a 960Pro M.2 in the boot slot.
Thanks for the video. I'm using the 14" version for 2 years. I used to have 15.6" earlier. I just ordered this 17". I think it's the best 2-in-1 out there for my needs (no game, no video editing). What I don't like: battery should be bigger (there is enough space inside the body for more battery), smaller hinges (every cm matters when you're 17" screen). Power should be USB, so I can use it to charge my phone too.
Just purchased mine from Best Buy last night! Complaints so far, is that Firefox browser crashes all the time, and I won't stand for that on a brand new computer. Edge browser can't make video calls on Facebook because the browser is not supported and they want you to download Chrome, or Firefox! What to do? Beyond that, I love my new Dell, and will figure out a way through any problems. Pretty heavy, even though it has no optical drive. No dedicated Ethernet connection. USB3 I think can be adapted. My old Dell came with a fake SD card that you could pop it out for a real card(protection purposes). When you flip the screen over for a giant tablet, I worry about the keyboard being laid down on it's belly with no protection from dust or spills! End result, great laptop, on sale at around $900.00, beautiful picture, nice sound, but it does have it's flaws!
I just ordered mine. I am replacing my Desktop of 7 years, I do photography. It is great because the size of the screen , and I was excited I could bump up the RAM . I am really excited. The screen will be amazing for working remotely, and proofing with clients. I am super Excited
Yeah ppl will say it's too big to be a tablet, but it's more of an aio, and tent mode makes it great for some artists or ppl who want an aio. Use it like a desktop at home, but if you have to go somewhere you can have the laptop mode. Seems awesome to me
Just bought mine today, in the process of setting it up currently. I like what I see so far, and I did research quite a few. I will let you know once I'm rolling with it.
So far I like the product very much. I think it is well worth the price point and quality is great. I only dread ever having to contact Dell for support as their call centre is a joke. I originally ordered this from their website, and after 3.5 weeks of trying to deal with foreign call centres, I cancelled the order and bought mine at Best Buy. The product is awesome.
so 17 inch is actually really big so r u facing any problems with it ? cuz i also wanna buy the 17inch bcz of 1TB hard disk and 128gb SSD and 2 GB graphics so is it good for college also games ?
I had a Inspiron 17 - 7737, 17 inch laptop, and I upgraded the HD hard drive to a Sandisk 960 GB SSD, works grate, u need to switch to SSD from HD hard drive as well.
have inspiron 17 5755. just added ssd to it. 12gb ram 256ssd 2tb hard drive. boot time 5seconds. after 5 years going strong. this is my home pc. i had to change power ic once for 40 dollars. 40 dollars for ssd. 330 for refurbished laptop. total 410. DELL is great.
such an impressive review! I just have an important question I need this laptop for drawing, so does it support dell active stylus pen? and can you really move easily while in tablet mode? can you hold it with one hand and use the other to work with the screen (even if for a five minute or so)?
Thanks Adnan! = ) Yes, it supports dells optional active stylus. One hand use would definitely be uncomfortable in tablet mode. It's a big laptop. But on your laptop or using two hands for short periods of time is fine.
Nice job regarding your description of the keyboard. Most reviewers seem to think it is verboten to describe the experience of pressing a key. Who knows, maybe manufacturers have pressured them to keep quiet. But from a health standpoint we do need to know about whether the key hits bottom softly or with a clack and the extent to which keys are clicky and how far these keys travel. Thanks for the effort.
I got this Notebook the Day it was released and i really like it. The review you made was very good but with they keyboard part i cant completely agree. Especialy the space between the buttons is perfect for me to type without looking and feels very comfortable :) Also to mention thanks to your video i know that i have different backlight options
I am looking at this... I have a HP 17.3 AMD A8-7410 with AMD Radeon R5 Graphics which is slow to load up. I utilize Adobe creative cloud o PS, Ai and Pr and for the most part if you stay patient you will get done what is needed but I am tired of being patient for things to load... I have researched All in One's with Dell and HP models and from what I gather is core i5 is better than Ryzan 5 and there is not much difference between i5 and i7 which i7 has hyperthreading but I have heard mix reviews on how hyperthreading slows the processors down. I know I will need 16 gigs or better and I can always upgrade components... So dell right now has the 7000 model with Intel Iris Xe graphics which I have seen tests that they are exceeding in the market right now above AMD invidia GeForce graphics So my question I am asking is do I buy something that is portable or an All in one? How well does the touch screen work and can I use a stylus Will illustrator work proficiently well on the 7000 When using as a tablet will videos look great? I am not much of a gamer
hello bro...I need to buy this laptop r else dell 7560... basically am a civil engineer.. I need it for interior designing and entertainment... which lap is suitable for me.. please suggest about these two? 7778 r 7560?
Overall a very nice quick review Matt. I am looking for more SSD info however as I have this laptop but I ordered it without the SSD. Info I was given originally suggested it used a typical 2.5" which I have several but it seems it is instead m.2. I have an m.2 in my desktop and I'd like to order one for this laptop but I would like to make sure the exact option it supports. If you could simply snap a shot of or tell me the model of the Toshiba m.2 that's installed that'd be great. I hope you follow up with your older vids still, thanks in advance.
Hello Matthew! Is this 2-in-1 Laptop able to handle a stylus for writing on it for university? I don`t mean hard drawing only such things like writing or chemical structures etc.
Bought one last week, anxious for it to arrive but bought the 17 7000 2-in-1 7786 w/2t drive. My machine has a fingerprint scanner, but yours doesn't is that something they added later, after your was made?
This is my dream laptop! sooo fabulous. nice built quality. Oh I wish someone will give me one. go Dell!!. I love the style and durability.!!! thanks Sir Matt.
Please i need your help im confused I want buy any of this laptop Spectre x 360 15 .4k Dell inspiron 15 7000 .4k Dell inspiron 17 7000 But not sure because i want use Active Stylus pen for drawing and some told yes u can use pen some told me no Thanks
Your comments are well researched and helpful. The background muzak is irritating, and nearly as loud as your voice, preventing concentrating on your words. Ditch the Muzak. I bought the laptop.
+Rishabh Mehta I mean it depends on the work. If you're mostly in a browser and use Google docs or office 360 you can do fine with even a Chromebook. What type of work do you do?
Hi there, Few weeks ago I suddenly got a Message "Hard Drive not installed" on my Dell Inspiron 17-7000(7778) (i5 processor) series and couldn't access Windows anymore, this was after a lot of years of ongoing screen freeze alongside other issues that I had on 2 same Inspiron laptops since day one and have reported to Dell but unfortunately Dell Customer Service and Support have Failed to Address the Issues tell warranty Expiration not to mention the price (of the two) being students on a budget. and then the Hard Drive failure Came, Now I would like to try and upgrade to SSD M.2. In Setup and Specifications THE ONLY THING I FOUND is that I can Install One-m.2 drive and One-2.5 inch drive. Is Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 (1TB) or pro series compatible?, There woulden't be any Bios issues? And is there a limit of storage capacity that my 4-5 Year old Inspiron-17-i5 can handle on both Hard Drives (primary and secondary). Thanks.
Thanks for the information .. I want you to help me decide between this 17 inch laptop ( 128 ssd + 1 TB HDD )vs the xps 15 ( 32 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD ) .. What do you suggest? If i will purchase one of them .. Can i replace the HDD with a faster SSD ? Can you link me one ?
It depends what yo uneed it for? The Dell XPS 15 is much better in my opinion. It's faster with a more beefier processor and you get a more powerful dedicated graphics card. Plus, if you get the 4K screen model it's absolutely gorgeous to look at. Both laptops can have their Hard drives replaced.
+Matthew Moniz so if I decided to purchase the xps 15 with 1TB HDD + 32 SSD .. Can I replace the the 1TB HDD with 512 SSD easily ? If yes please give me link for excellent compatible SSD .. Thank you again
Matthew Moniz I have ordered the xps 15, 256 ssd .. hope I have chosen the right laptop :) I want the laptop for university for autocad, 3d max photoshop and some other 3d programs. thank you so much for your help
Was happy the first day I got a dell laptop like this. However, the next day, mouse scrolling issues, immediately started heating up, worst annoyance, the speakers where making static popping sounds regardless of low or high volume. Had to return it the next day and decided to get a full refund. Was so happy yet so sad instantly because it was a good deal to steal =(
yes it was. After the store person saw evidence of my issues with the model, she offered a replacement or refund. I took the latter since I wanted to reevaluate what kind of laptop im looking for now. Plus I think i can wait a bit for an i7 2-1 on sale. Damn. It was an i5,256gbssd, 8gb touch screen 2-1 for $703 after tax!
I'm hoping someone could be of assistance and tell me if this laptop would be a good one to get - is it fast/powerful enough for me to build a website online without slow loading times and lagging (not a website from scratch but on Wix for example)? Previous laptops I have used recently have been really slow (I believe they are older laptop models and not very powerful) ... And which is the most powerful version of this 17 inch Dell 2-in1 (I believe it was mentioned that there are different versions that increase in speed)? Thank you so much in advance
Any advice on how to open this thing up? I'm trying to pop the bottom off so I can check on my hard drive (it's making some loud but not too crazy noises) but it doesn't feel like it opens up easily, and I don't want to force it for obvious reasons. Any advice helps! Edit: I did remove the screws lol, just thought I should make that clear
Bro i purchased the model with 12gb ram and no ssd now can i upgrade it to ssd and 16 gb ? 1.If yes which type of ssd and which compnay `s ssd is better ? 2.It has 1 8gb and 1 4gb stick in order to improve it to 16 i need to change 4gb stick right?
Found your question checking into the SSD upgrade options for my I7778 that arrived earlier today. I feel doubtful it'll support NVMe so I won't use the drive I use in my desktop but I too am looking to confirm 100% what SSD is supported. Since you dropped this query 2 months ago I hope maybe you have some answers you'd be so kind as to share? As for the memory question you'd be best buying a matched pair of 8GB memory but replacing the 4GB with a 8GB of the same speed as what is installed would also work (usually, memory can be a little picky sometimes hence the reason I suggest the match set).
Type C is the new type of USB port. It's much faster and can also push more power. Which means you can connect a USB Type-C cable to a power adapter and charge your laptop. The adapter will obviously have to support the voltage of the battery. Of course you can just use the standard power cable that comes with the laptop but the option is always there. Hope this helps! If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask!
Matthew Moniz Thank you so much for the reply! So the only purpose of the usb type c port on this laptop is to charge the laptop with another adaptor faster?
You're welcome! No, it's multipurpose. So not only can you charge the laptop, but you can also connect usb type-c peripherals. So external hard drives, mouse, usb type-c sick. It even lets you connect an external monitor.
Matthew Moniz Wow thats cool! Also another quick question, does you're model automatically turn on the keyboards backlight when you turn the laptop on? If so do you know how to turn off that feature, i cant find it online anywhere.
I have a question. If you could make a new video were you could feauter some backpack for back to school! Some slim backpacks along with some great tech such as powerbanks and pc's/macs. And yeah your videos are great and keep the good work up!
Wow! This laptop is a beast. I was looking to replace my desktop as well and needed a two in one. I was looking at surface book before but it is just too expensive for me especially the i7 configurations. This is very nicely priced with a really beautiful look. The battery is awesome, face recognition adds to its charm and that big beautiful display would cater all my movie needs. The only thing that bothers me slightly is how durable are those hinges because I want to buy this and keep it for at least 4-5 years.
i have it. The problem i have is the battery life. Because 7-8 hours for me is not that good. I expected a better battery life. A laptop this big would make people think the battery will be better like at least 10 or 15 hours
Yes, the battery should be like in laptops Alineware or Omen 6000-10000mA/h 3500 it is small for 17 inches. 15 inches laptops have twice much more battery
which of these is better for these games like cs:go or tom clancy's ghost recon phantoms Intel NUC i3-5010U THIS IS THE 1ST ONE Acer Aspire E5-571G-33DW THIS IS THE SECOND ONE Acer Aspire E5-721-82M2 THE 3RD ONE
I ordered this and should be here this week. I did not realize there was no ethernet spot so if i wanted to hook it up. Is there a way to do that. Like an adaptor or something so if my wireless was ever not working or something? Please advise.
NO PEN SUPPORT - A SOFT TIP, CAPACITIVE STYLUS is the only thing that will work on this machine. *If you are a digital artist considering this, forget it. No pressure sensitivity, no active nub tip support.* I ordered one, and tested it first hand. I'm taking mine back to the store. World's First 17' convertable laptop, and they leave out pressure pen support.
I bought the Dell 17-7000 directly from the company and today it was delivered. First impressions: like you said, I wanted a desktop replacement and this heavy duty box has the specs for serious data analytical and GIS mapping work. I ordered it with a Seagate Backup Portable Storage hard drive along with Logitech Ultrathin touch mouse and I plan on hooking it up with a second monitor. I like the industrial simplicity of its design and it has the feel of a computer fitting in an office or out in the field. I'll have it professionally configured for optimal performance and easy workflow, so there is every reason to believe this laptop should run like a champ.

Hi, does it suporte active pen?
The newest 15 inch model now has Infinity Edge screen like the XPS according to the Dell RUclips channel. Looking forward to a 17 inch Infinity Edge screen! Hopefully I have the cash to splurge by then.
Can you send a link for the source?

I have this laptop and its amazing everything I ever wanted in a laptop
SittingBull good for school?
@@jordangomez3398 Seems like it!
I just purchase this laptop for $711 at Best Buy. This was an open box purchase with a tiny tiny starch on the top. Thanks for the review.
Just purchased mine from Best Buy last night! Complaints so far, is that Firefox browser crashes all the time, and I won't stand for that on a brand new computer. Edge browser can't make video calls on Facebook because the browser is not supported and they want you to download Chrome, or Firefox! What to do?

Update please 😊 how do you like the Inspiron?
Yeah ppl will say it's too big to be a tablet, but it's more of an aio, and tent mode makes it great for some artists or ppl who want an aio. Use it like a desktop at home, but if you have to go somewhere you can have the laptop mode.
Seems awesome to me
Just bought mine today, in the process of setting it up currently. I like what I see so far, and I did research quite a few. I will let you know once I'm rolling with it.
pls give us your opinion I'm thinking in buying one
So far I like the product very much. I think it is well worth the price point and quality is great. I only dread ever having to contact Dell for support as their call centre is a joke. I originally ordered this from their website, and after 3.5 weeks of trying to deal with foreign call centres, I cancelled the order and bought mine at Best Buy. The product is awesome.

Do you have any feedback on the quality of the internal microphone? Is that something that can be upgraded without needing to add a USB microphone?
perfect review and very detailed . thank-you
A great laptop....pretty descent specs....great reviewing....one of the best reviewers.... Good job Matt...👍👌
+Subhashish Mohan Dash Thanks Subhashih! I really appreciate the support!

Could you review the Inspiron 13 7000. I'm looking to buy one but no one has done a really in depth, good review. Great video!
Would this laptop be good enough to handle some photoshop and illustrator design?
Great video Matt! Love your content. Keep up the good work! : )
THanks Jacob! = )

basically am a civil engineer..
I need it for interior designing and entertainment... which lap is suitable for me..
please suggest about these two?
7778 r 7560?
Very good review. Might want to pick one up for myself.
Just bought one love it but waiting for my sleeve to arrive. Can you suggest some good bags for it?
Overall a very nice quick review Matt. I am looking for more SSD info however as I have this laptop but I ordered it without the SSD.

Hello Matthew! Is this 2-in-1 Laptop able to handle a stylus for writing on it for university? I don`t mean hard drawing only such things like writing or chemical structures etc.
Great review as always Matthew!
+TechTranslated Thanks man as always :)
Did you try using any kind of pen on the touch screen? If so which type and How does it preform?
I have a doubt. When it is in "tablet mode", you can use it in vertical? Or just in horizontal?
Bought one last week, anxious for it to arrive but bought the 17 7000
2-in-1 7786 w/2t drive. My machine has a fingerprint scanner, but yours doesn't is that something they added later, after your was made?
Why don't Dell make a infinity edge 17 inch? Or 17 inch Dell XPS for that matter? I would like to buy that!!!
Great review as always!! Can you do a review of this one but the new version!!! Thanks.
Great review Matthew
Thanks man!
After extensive typing tests in stores, the 17" 7000 is a rare good find in my opinion.
HP Envy laptops produce WONDERFUL sounds (with special software provided with the laptops).
you make best reviews ever
+Vadox Ridha Thanks Vadox!! I appreciate it!
keep it up, you helped me alot
your reviews are sick.
+yeasin chowdhury Thanks man! 😀
Does it work good for music production, like using programs like Fl studio and Ableton?
Dope, both the laptop and review.
Thanks man!
wow, that screen is awesome 😱
very good video and very impressive one all the best well done
Hey great review, am getting one, unfortunately the week after Christmas 🎄😀👍😀👍, can't wait lol
Thanks Jason! Let me know how you like it = )
Hi Matthew, can I suggest you include color accuracy test to quantify the result for future reviews?
+James Chang great suggestion! I will do that in future videos. I'll need to order a new display calibration tool
This is my dream laptop! sooo fabulous. nice built quality. Oh I wish someone will give me one. go Dell!!. I love the style and durability.!!! thanks Sir Matt.
+James Baryl Garcelo you're very welcome James! Thanks for watching as usual !
Please i need your help im confused
I want buy any of this laptop
Spectre x 360 15 .4k
Dell inspiron 15 7000 .4k
Dell inspiron 17 7000
But not sure because i want use Active Stylus pen for drawing and some told yes u can use pen some told me no
Thanks
Hey I'm curious to find out which one you chose because I wanted pen support too
Do you know what stylus can be used?
Your comments are well researched and helpful. The background muzak is irritating, and nearly as loud as your voice, preventing concentrating on your words. Ditch the Muzak. I bought the laptop.
I'm getting one of these laptops. It was priced at $1,299. Walmart has it for only $84! I think I'm getting a great deal! What do you think for $84?
wtf 🤣 go grab it 🔥
Dope video!
Is it good for wasting time?
No. This machine will make you super productive.
Thanks for the nice video. According to you which is the best laptop for work/productivity.
+Rishabh Mehta I mean it depends on the work. If you're mostly in a browser and use Google docs or office 360 you can do fine with even a Chromebook. What type of work do you do?
+Matthew Moniz I mostly use excel, PowerPoint and programming languages like R and SAS.
Perfect review, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Watch this space this channel will be up there in the hundreds of thousands of subs soon.
+Thunder o thanks man, that would be awesome! Until then I'll keep on making videos!
Already bought it!
Nice! how you liking it!?
cool video.can high graphics games be played at medium settings on it?
+Shubz F low settings overwatch which isn't too demanding needs to be played at 720p and low
i went to best buy and i saw this laptop the only down side is the keyboard it is too small for this size of a laptop :(
Hi there,
Few weeks ago I suddenly got a Message "Hard Drive not installed" on my Dell Inspiron 17-7000(7778) (i5 processor) series and couldn't access Windows anymore, this was after a lot of years of ongoing screen freeze alongside other issues that I had on 2 same Inspiron laptops since day one and have reported to Dell but unfortunately Dell Customer Service and Support have Failed to Address the Issues tell warranty Expiration not to mention the price (of the two) being students on a budget.
and then the Hard Drive failure Came,
Now I would like to try and upgrade to SSD M.2.
In Setup and Specifications THE ONLY THING I FOUND is that I can Install One-m.2 drive and One-2.5 inch drive.
Is Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 (1TB) or pro series compatible?, There woulden't be any Bios issues? And is there a limit of storage capacity that my 4-5 Year old Inspiron-17-i5 can handle on both Hard Drives (primary and secondary).
Thanks.

Matthew Moniz I have ordered the xps 15, 256 ssd .. hope I have chosen the right laptop :) I want the laptop for university for autocad, 3d max photoshop and some other 3d programs. thank you so much for your help
Even though I'm not a big fan of Dell, but the 7000 looks promising.
+Shellyman 1.0 Ya they did a good job!
Matthew Moniz I'm no longer 16K bro. :-(
Why what happened?
Matthew Moniz New era. :)
Was happy the first day I got a dell laptop like this. However, the next day, mouse scrolling issues, immediately started heating up, worst annoyance, the speakers where making static popping sounds regardless of low or high volume. Had to return it the next day and decided to get a full refund. Was so happy yet so sad instantly because it was a good deal to steal =(
your one was defected i presume?
yes it was. After the store person saw evidence of my issues with the model, she offered a replacement or refund. I took the latter since I wanted to reevaluate what kind of laptop im looking for now. Plus I think i can wait a bit for an i7 2-1 on sale. Damn. It was an i5,256gbssd, 8gb touch screen 2-1 for $703 after tax!
Did you realize that the wifi always crashes? I installed the latest drivers from dell and it doesn't fix the Problem.
7 to 8 hours is pretty good for 17inch, they shouldve put in the 97kwr one, it would've lasted 12+ hours
I'm hoping someone could be of assistance and tell me if this laptop would be a good one to get - is it fast/powerful enough for me to build a website online without slow loading times and lagging (not a website from scratch but on Wix for example)? Previous laptops I have used recently have been really slow (I believe they are older laptop models and not very powerful) ... And which is the most powerful version of this 17 inch Dell 2-in1 (I believe it was mentioned that there are different versions that increase in speed)? Thank you so much in advance
do you get any LCD back-light bleeding? i have the same laptop and get bleeding on the bottom left corner :(
The Dell 7000 is one computer that I will consider buying.
Nooo!!
Any advice on how to open this thing up? I'm trying to pop the bottom off so I can check on my hard drive (it's making some loud but not too crazy noises) but it doesn't feel like it opens up easily, and I don't want to force it for obvious reasons. Any advice helps!
Edit: I did remove the screws lol, just thought I should make that clear
Bro i purchased the model with 12gb ram and no ssd now can i upgrade it to ssd and 16 gb ?
1.If yes which type of ssd and which compnay `s ssd is better ?
2.It has 1 8gb and 1 4gb stick in order to improve it to 16 i need to change 4gb stick right?
Found your question checking into the SSD upgrade options for my I7778 that arrived earlier today. I feel doubtful it'll support NVMe so I won't use the drive I use in my desktop but I too am looking to confirm 100% what SSD is supported. Since you dropped this query 2 months ago I hope maybe you have some answers you'd be so kind as to share? As for the memory question you'd be best buying a matched pair of 8GB memory but replacing the 4GB with a 8GB of the same speed as what is installed would also work (usually, memory can be a little picky sometimes hence the reason I suggest the match set).
what is the name, size, of the charging cord?
What's the purpose of the USB type c port on the laptop, sorry I'm confused. You said it can charge the laptop, how?
Type C is the new type of USB port. It's much faster and can also push more power. Which means you can connect a USB Type-C cable to a power adapter and charge your laptop. The adapter will obviously have to support the voltage of the battery. Of course you can just use the standard power cable that comes with the laptop but the option is always there. Hope this helps! If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask!
Matthew Moniz Thank you so much for the reply! So the only purpose of the usb type c port on this laptop is to charge the laptop with another adaptor faster?
You're welcome! No, it's multipurpose. So not only can you charge the laptop, but you can also connect usb type-c peripherals. So external hard drives, mouse, usb type-c sick. It even lets you connect an external monitor.
Matthew Moniz Wow thats cool! Also another quick question, does you're model automatically turn on the keyboards backlight when you turn the laptop on? If so do you know how to turn off that feature, i cant find it online anywhere.
@@mrmathboireborn5805 You can turn that on/off in the BIOS. Just hit F2 when the Dell logo is on the screen to get there.
I have a question. If you could make a new video were you could feauter some backpack for back to school! Some slim backpacks along with some great tech such as powerbanks and pc's/macs.
And yeah your videos are great and keep the good work up!
Thanks Tony! = ) I'm working on another accessory video, just waiting for one more thing to come in!
Thank you so much!!
How hot is too hot for the laptop?
Wow! This laptop is a beast. I was looking to replace my desktop as well and needed a two in one. I was looking at surface book before but it is just too expensive for me especially the i7 configurations. This is very nicely priced with a really beautiful look. The battery is awesome, face recognition adds to its charm and that big beautiful display would cater all my movie needs.
The only thing that bothers me slightly is how durable are those hinges because I want to buy this and keep it for at least 4-5 years.
The hinges are quite stiff if that helps! = ) But i can't really give you a a better idea since the laptop is only a couple of months old.
Matthew Moniz Thanks! And the review was awesome. Do you think it can handle fifa and PES well since I only play these two games
an economic laptop for editing that you can recommend me ??., thanks and great review cherrrsss
i have it. The problem i have is the battery life. Because 7-8 hours for me is not that good. I expected a better battery life. A laptop this big would make people think the battery will be better like at least 10 or 15 hours
With a 17 inch laptop 7-8 hours is goooooood!
Yeah i guess
Yes, the battery should be like in laptops Alineware or Omen 6000-10000mA/h 3500 it is small for 17 inches. 15 inches laptops have twice much more battery
Levi Ackerman did you continuously used it for 8 hours
Levi Ackerman let me know because I am also thinking about buying one
which of these is better for these games like cs:go or tom clancy's ghost recon phantoms
Intel NUC i3-5010U THIS IS THE 1ST ONE
Acer Aspire E5-571G-33DW THIS IS THE SECOND ONE
Acer Aspire E5-721-82M2 THE 3RD ONE
I've got an inspiron 7537 and just can't imagine to keep that huge touchscreen clean. Mine is a struggle already :D
how much do you love it im deciding to to get it or not.
the 7537? it's a really balanced machine for me, but I think it's a little bit dated to buy it now. Check out the 7557 or later models
So we have an optical drive?
I ordered this and should be here this week. I did not realize there was no ethernet spot so if i wanted to hook it up. Is there a way to do that. Like an adaptor or something so if my wireless was ever not working or something? Please advise.
Stephanie Lawrence You could go on Amazon or wherever and buy a USB to ethernet adapter.
oh i never knew there was one.
I'm getting the 13 inch model, how is it?
I never tested it! But I'm sure it's quite similar.
Can this laptop be used for djing?
battery life ?
can I use mouse on this laptop?
I would love to know your thoughts on Asus that came out in June, Q534UX-BBI7T16?
Does it have a dolby atmos sound?
NO PEN SUPPORT - A SOFT TIP, CAPACITIVE STYLUS is the only thing that will work on this machine. *If you are a digital artist considering this, forget it. No pressure sensitivity, no active nub tip support.* I ordered one, and tested it first hand. I'm taking mine back to the store. World's First 17' convertable laptop, and they leave out pressure pen support.
hey its 2021 and 7200rpm HD is still not a base.... prices of those are higher than SSD
learning mine, it is a pleasure, but want to play a game with scripting needs, help?
is the Dell inspiron 13 7000 with i5 processor good for college?
the program i mostly use is excel and MYOB
+vj reid don't know what myob is but for Excel it's more than powerful enough
about how big is 17"? is that normal?
Legoman718 Pretty big nowadays.
yeah, now I'm looking to get the Dell XPS 13 with i7, so yeah
Yeah everyone wants a smaller screen nowadays. For me, I like a bigger screen size.
I think dell inspiron 7559 its a better option. Much powerfull with better gpu and cpu, bigger battery and cheaper. Nice video
THanks ! The 7559 is a sweet gaming laptop for the price. But it's in a different category! But you're right it does have better specs.
