via Amazon
Dell Inspiron 15z Ultrabook with touchscreen has to be one of the best value for money computers in the market. You may well compare it to a Mac Air for its build quality and even better technical specs and connectivity options, but only $4-500 cheaper. It has a responsive touchscreen to use with Windows 8.1, a swift Intel i5 processor, 6 GB of RAM for plenty of multitasking, both the normal HDD hard drive and a solid state drive.
Intel Core i5 3337U processor at 1.80 GHz speed which can go up to 2.7 GHz with turbo boost function whenever needed, 6GB DDR3 SDRAM at 1600 MHz and 500GB at 5400 rpm rotating speed SATA HDD + 32GB SSD combination for super fast start-ups and overall efficiency. And just go on the Microsoft site online to upgrade the pre-installed Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 free of charge.
15.6 in LED touchscreen that supports 10-finger multitouch gestures with 1366 x 768 pixel resolution is a little glossy but nothing major to bother you and it has an Intel HD Graphics 4400 with shared graphics memory. Waves MaxxAudio and the integrated stereo speakers offer very loud and clear sound that is better than most laptops in the market.
The sleek and modern aluminium 15z Ultrabook has the dimensions of 15.04 x 0.83 x 9.84 inches- so it is 0.83 inch thick but a little wide and weighs about 5.3 lbs, so it is quite portable but with a different shape to most machines out there. It has a comfortable and backlit keyboard so you'll be fine when working in dim light and the dark and it feels great when typing. The 6-cell lithium-ion battery will give you around 7 hours in normal usage.
It is certainly not poor in connectivity, with 4 USB 3.0 ports- one of them with sleep and charge function, an HDMI port, wireless 802.11b/g/n, Ethernet port RJ-45 (10/100/1000), Bluetooth 4.0 for wireless connection to Bluetooth enabled devices, 8-in-1 Media card reader, Optical drive, Headphone output/Microphone input combo and a built-in HD webcam.
Conclusion: The Dell Inspiron 15z Ultrabook comes with outstanding performance, compact size, great image, the best tech support from Dell and quite an affordable price for what you're getting. You won't experience any lags or freezes, everything will work smoothly and fast- it is a bargain as compared to a similar Macbook Air. It has an awesome build quality and according to some customers, it seems to survive even the most serious falls. You certainly won't regret your decision to purchase the Dell Inspiron 15z Ultrabook so go ahead and check it out.
