    Since this is 11gen, so it doesn’t support DP hence 4K output? That will be weird.

      What's wrong with the screen?

      • shabaka on 18/06/2023 - 08:52
        +4

        45% NTSC colour space coverage. around 60% sRGB. means washed out colours

        • bobokingdom on 18/06/2023 - 09:45
          +1

          I think, 45% NTSC = 72% sRGB as Lenovo used them interchangeably.

          For basic Office work, Web Browsing, even watching YouTube, it will be fine. But may not be suitable for Graphics work.

          • Mr Bob Dobalina on 18/06/2023 - 18:28

            @bobokingdom: What's the PAL %?

          • shabaka on 18/06/2023 - 18:53

            @bobokingdom: when Dell says 45% NTSC it just means "forget about color accuracy, cheapo panel used", and the actual sRGB coverage can be anywhere between 60 to 80%

            72% NTSC on the other hand in Dell language means "close to full sRGB coverage"

            Lenovo is similar.

            • bobokingdom on 18/06/2023 - 21:52

              @shabaka: Thank you for the info. It seems most Dell / Lenovo / HP entry and mid range models only has 45% NTSC these days. :(

    • Fuzor on 18/06/2023 - 08:47

      It's not Iris Xe

      • Gravy on 18/06/2023 - 10:14
        +1

        Hmm… something perhaps wrong in the description as that CPU apparently does feature Iris Xe https://laptoping.com/cpus/product/intel-core-i5-1135g7/

        • dav3 on 18/06/2023 - 14:05

          If you actually go to the Dell site you see it's an option when you build it, but it's extra.

          • Mr Bob Dobalina on 18/06/2023 - 18:29

            @dav3: Isn't it built into the CPU? How can it be an option?

            • dav3 on 19/06/2023 - 11:00

              @Mr Bob Dobalina: Because different CPUs are options?

              The Dell configurator lets you choose either graphics options on the 1135G7 too, might be a mistake on their end though

    This vs a discounted surface laptop go 2?
    I'm waiting for another surface deal like last black friday. But if this is better I might forgo holding on to the pipeline dream

    • Jabba the Hutt on 18/06/2023 - 11:21
      +1

      Comparing very different beasts, but I got that Surface Laptop Go 2 from a previous deal here and didn't keep it. Build quality was outstanding for the price, but the design is relatively top heavy, with a hinge that isn't very firm, and the highly reflective glossy display was a bit of a regression to the bad old days when it was hard to find a laptop without one. Thought I wouldn't be fussed as got it as a cheap (at least in the deal) secondary laptop, but was wrong.

      Should be relatively easy to find one in store to try out and make sure it's what you want. This cheap Dell probably has its own issues.

      • maverickjohn on 18/06/2023 - 21:41

        Thanks so much for this advice. My current laptop is a 2011 MacBook Pro which is glossy. So understand your frustration. Thanks for the advice

    • Merlict on 18/06/2023 - 12:49

      Where can you see a Laptop Go 2 around this price please?

    It's reasonably light for a budget 15 inch laptop. Dull screen tho, you could barely use this outdoors or in a bright environment, like a cafe. Though 120Hz is a plus.. Not often seen in this price range.

  • shabaka on 18/06/2023 - 08:52

    45% NTSC for those wondering

    Hey guys any feedback on the Vostro 7620 Laptop?
    https://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/dell-laptops/vostro-7620-lap…

    It's $1887.60 in the EOFY section on dell store. I'm looking for a laptop with at least 15" / 16gb ram/ 256gb/ not oled. Also, is there any other laptop i should look for? Thanks

      bit of a weak display for the price

    • snep on 18/06/2023 - 13:51

      I'd go for this. There are a couple of skus with a 3050 6gb for ~$1600 if a dgpu is needed.

      Look on reddit. This is a lemon laptop.

      • Aureus on 18/06/2023 - 10:39
        +2

        You would probably see the same thing for every budget laptop. Crap screens, plastic parts and inadequate cooling is how they make these cheap.

        I am sure this laptop is fine for someone who will only use it occasionally. I have the better speced version of the previous gen and it in fine for my needs.

    • 0FoxGiven on 18/06/2023 - 10:51

      Dell low-mid range laptops are shit. Expect batteries to crap out soon after warranty and broken hinges or screen coming apart and all that. After two Dell laptops that cost me more in repairs than the purchase price, I swore to never again get these lemons

      Why should we believe you over another source of information? Especially considering you don't list any USB Type-C port.

      • Grimo123 on 18/06/2023 - 14:58

        Because it says so farther down the page

      • Merlict on 18/06/2023 - 16:39

        Yeah clearly shows a USB C on all the pics and top specs.

    • Dogsrule on 18/06/2023 - 17:05

      There are two variants of this model, one with 2x USB A on the left side and another with 1x USB A and 1x USB C. Look at Pg 7/8 in the user manual:

      https://dl.dell.com/content/manual20296756-inspiron-15-3520-…

      The variant for sale here apparently has the USB C port.

  • Dogsrule on 18/06/2023 - 11:05

    Pg 43 of the service manual shows 2 SODIMM slots:

    Beware- my wife bought an Inspiron Touchscreen in Nov 2021 (out of warranty now) - ended up with a poor microphone gain issue, causes people on the other side being able to barely hear during video-conferencing. Tried re-installing drivers etc, but the problem is still ongoing. :(

    • OldSchoolHarry on 18/06/2023 - 16:13

      Suggest using a basic headset for calls as even premium laptops have terrible mics.

      • megadeth on 18/06/2023 - 21:47

        That's what she's doing. My daughter and I have business-grade laptops (i.e. Latitude), their mics are okay. I think Dell just cheaped out in the consumer segment here.

  • cyber9uy on 18/06/2023 - 18:02

    16GB memory is much better for long use

  • ScaryMagus on 18/06/2023 - 18:13

    I have the generation prior to this. Worst laptop I've ever owned (going back to the 90s). Sluggish, noisy, poorly ventilated, garbage display. Cheap and nasty feel. Just pay more and get something that isn't awful.

  • basilv on 18/06/2023 - 20:02

    Apparently 14% cashback from cashrewards. However only $27.96 reward captured on $998.80 spend. Any ideas anyone?

  • goodlife21 on 19/06/2023 - 11:31

    I Had a talk with Dell help. Hinges are not covered in warranty !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I would stay miles away from this laptop, as the hinges on these laptops are prone to failure. If hinges fails, good luck, your laptop is now a brick

    • vshek on 19/06/2023 - 13:32

      Thanks for checking! This makes no sense to me. Its understandable that warranty does not cover misuse, but its how can warranty omit a part of the product?

      • goodlife21 on 20/06/2023 - 07:30

        Hinges are only covered if you take accidental damage cover.

      • dav3 on 20/06/2023 - 09:02

        Same way laptop batteries are generally 12 months, same way a lot of "consumable" car parts have a limited warranty, etc.

        Wear and tear items often aren't covered by a standard warranty.

    I mean, you pay for what you get. I got this one 2 years ago with i7-cpu, around $1.2k, pretty good look, clean design and light weighted, good for use as working laptop and watch movie/videos.

    I would buy the cheapest combo and open the back of laptop, add another 8GB laptop ram stick to make it 16GB memory, would be really nice to use.

  • vshek on 21/06/2023 - 08:40

    Got the laptop today. Its very plasticky and feels fragile. for the hardware specs its OK as a home laptop with external Keyboard and Monitor
