Features & Design
Optimum performance for gaming, surfing and everything else
Multi-tasking processing: With 6th Gen Intel i5 Quad-Core processors, you’ll have all the power you need to enjoy both gaming and entertainment.
Stream and re-stream videos: The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M is your performance-class graphics card with 4GB GDDR5 discrete memory. This graphics powerhouse gives you high frame-per-second rates in games and accelerates video editing and transcoding.
Solid-State Drive (SSD): Solid-state drives are similar to the flash-based memory that you find in USB memory devices and have no moving parts, making them more secure and less prone to failure than standard hard drives. SSDs also pull your data from the drive faster and outperform 10,000 rpm Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) in read/write speeds, meaning you’ll also get faster load times on game maps and other information that’s stored on your device.
For people on the go, the potential benefits are significant
- Improved performance faster boot times, faster application launches and faster access to all your documents
- Durability helps protect your important files from potential drops
- Longer battery life lower power consumption by SSDs than HDDs
- Quieter, lightweight, and cooler than standard hard drives

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Learn more how customers reviews work on AmazonCustomers say

Customers like the speed of the notebook computer. They say that the CPU performance is exceptional, and the GPU handles the latest titles at 3.5/5 details with an average 30 frames per second. The hardware has a good feel, and tasks complete in no time at all. However, boot times and operation improved significantly after adding a 275 GB M.2 SSD ($70).2, which improves the speed even further. Games run smoothly and rarely dip below 60 fps, even while raiding. Customers also mention that the best processor available, 4GB dedicated video card, hybrid HDD, and nice keyboard make a difference in speed of connections and range.

Customers are mixed about the quality of the laptop. Some mention that it's well built, while others say that it was poorly built. They say that the hinges on the laptop look sturdy, but feel cheap. Some customers say that after a few months, it'd already started to fall apart.
"...Crappy TN panel aside, the overall build quality of that unit seemed superior to the 7559 with no panel gaps, smoother hinge motion, etc." Read more

"...Cons:- As many other reviewers have pointed out, the touchpad is bad. There's no way around it. It's just bad...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the laptop. Some mention that it has very nice sound, while others say that it's definitely not quite as loud nor does it have the bass of small laptops. The built-in speakers aren't the best, and they have a slight tin can experience to them. The speakers on the 7559 are fairly cheap sounding, and the computer makes popping sounds whenever you open it.
"...the loudest laptop i have ever personally encountered. Very crisp sound with decent bass. The laptop has a mini subwoofer on the bottom...." Read more
"...The speakers on the 7559 are fairly cheap sounding. I would say they are on par with small PC speakers that sell for about $10-$15...." Read more
"...- (good) Sound quality is decent, but then I primarily use quality headphones or external USB3 instrument interface-..." Read more
"...You will notice the case separating and the computer making popping sounds whenever you open it...." Read more

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Playing Far Cry 4 on medium settings bouncing around between 50-60 FPS is pretty respectable, and maxed out sits very comfotably at 30 FPS. It does get a little warm in the center underneath if it doesn't get air. For "on your lap" type of situation I recommend a cooling pad. On a table it seems to stay pretty cool with no issues. I've seen reviews here that say the fans are loud? Full speed sitting in a large classroom full of students in silence I hear my instructor's projector fan before I hear mine, and that's me gaming when i'm done with my work. The thing is honestly very quiet.
Battery life is not bad but not amazing either. 7 hours browsing not doing much and about 2-3 under heavy gaming. It comes with intel and nvidia settings in the drivers that automatically limit your FPS to 30 when not plugged in (settings that you can turn off) but honestly you're most likely gonna have this thing plugged in when you play anyway so just leave those on and save your battery from excessive drain.
So about the screen bleed......its really not that bad....let be realistic here. Yes there is from the bottom when the screen projects black but to me its so minor and i've only noticed it during like an all black loading screen....in games i don't notice it at all even when the room is pitch black in the game....so honestly for the price the screen bleed is so insignificant that it's nothing to worry about.
The sound.....fantastic. the loudest laptop i have ever personally encountered. Very crisp sound with decent bass. The laptop has a mini subwoofer on the bottom. (never seen that before)
The build itself feels very solid kind of a matte texture. I do notice a little flex in the center of the keyboard like other customers here but WASD all day no issues. The service panel in the bottom is like a dream come true. I mean it is so nice to be able to just pop that one large cover off and BAM all of your components are there that are replaceable. SSD slot, HDD, RAM, battery I mean all easily accessable oh and network card.
I would recommend buying a network card for this thing just for piece of mind. Idk didnt have any problems with the single channel but I went ahead and upgraded to the 2 antenna one and I do notice a good difference in speed of connections and range. The card is here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RCZ4I6S?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
Also, the ram is already at 8gb so why not upgrade anyway? =P Heres the ram :
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CQ35HBQ?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
The thing flies but if you want it to really fly...add this and put your Operationg System on it -
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-850-EVO-250-MZ-N5E250BW/dp/B00TGIVZTW/ref=pd_sim_147_3?ie=UTF8&dpID=41TSFnqpChL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=0GTG9V4K637B1P8XTM9Y
So back to reviewing. The track pad is okay took me a little while to get used to it. One thing I didnt like- the hollow tap you get when you tap the pad. its like tapping your nail on a wooden table. its weird but it works well besides that. I just use a mouse.
So all in all........150% would buy again. No regrets for the price. I mean hell even fallout 4 plays decent. 50-60 on low-med settings. To me for 800-900 bucks its a no brainer for the casual gamer. Dell really outdid themselves on this one.
How I intend to use this laptop --
- I am primarily using this to run photo and video editing software (Lr, Ps, Sony Vegas, etc) so raw processing and decent GPU performance is a prerequisite
- I also use music editing software (FL Studio, Audacity) which can also be quite processor-dependent
- Above apps are primarily run on my desktop, which is an i7 w/16GB and GPU. My laptop is used each day while I commute on the train to/from the office, and while away from home
- 4k display would be a nice-to-have, but I believe the screen size would not lend itself to editing raw 4k footage. I'll wait a few years for a comparable 4k display option
Why I chose this option --
- Granted, this unit packs the 6th generation i7, not the 7th. I'm OK with that. The incremental performance gain didn't seem to warrant the $100+ in cost
- The GPU, while good, is not the Nvidia 10-series. That is also OK. I did not purchase this laptop to run games in 1920x1080. As a matter of fact, I am not going to run games at all. This is the conundrum for me as a power user of multimedia apps. Everything today is spec'd out for game play, which doesn't necessarily translate to performance with Photoshop or music / DAW applications. I decided to err on the side of value here. In reality, the GTX 960M w/4GB is quite capable, and will support tasks such as video rendering and playback.
- The IPS HD display is gorgeous. It's anti-glare surface is bright, crisp and reproduces colors quite nicely.
- Most importantly, I chose value. I could have spent MUCH more than $799 and realized very little in performance gain. Let the others clamor for the bleeding edge. I'm inclined to find that ideal spot between performance and cost.
My impression is after a few weeks of use --
- (very good) Performance is great with video and image rendering / process times considerably better than my i7-2600 3.40 GHz desktop w/16GB
- (great) IPS display is really nice even in bright ambient lighting
- (great) Build quality and feel of casing is well done. I was able to easily upgrade Crucial 8GB Single DDR3L 1600 MT/s (PC3L-12800) SODIMM 204-Pin Laptop Memory (CT102464BF160B) to 16GB with one screw and a few panel snaps
- (great) It's quiet.. I rarely hear the fan kick up
- (good) Sound quality is decent, but then I primarily use quality headphones or external USB3 instrument interface
- (OK) Touchpad is a bit sensitive at times, and needs a bit of getting used to
Overall, I give this laptop high marks for the application I am using it for. Again, I am not a gamer, but am willing to let my little guy give it a whirl with Overwatch (assuming he can pry it from my hands). This is a nice solution for an affordable multimedia machine.
UPDATE: Search out "Fstoppers a depressing comparison between new kaby lake MacBook Pro and Four other windows laptops" - in this article (published June '17), they compare the new MacBook and Surface Book, HP Zbook, Dell XPS 15, and the older Dell Inspiron 15 (this one). Not surprisingly, this inexpensive option held it's own VERY well vs. laptops costing 3X the price. This is especially true testing video rendering times head-to-head. I highly recommend reading this if you are on the bubble in terms of deciding one of these other options.

Thank you so much Amazon
Esta laptop cuesta cada centavo, la tarjeta gráfica NVIDIA 960 en compañía del procesador Intel Core i7 lo hacen el combo perfecto y crean un monstruo perfecto.
El teclado una maravilla. Las teclas no las sientes al principio debes acostumbrarte a no tener que presionar tanto las teclas o tener que escuchar el "clic" de cada tecla que presionar. La iluminación del mismo te ayuda en mucho, cuando no tienes mucha iluminación en el área de trabajo la iluminación de las teclas se nota lo suficiente para poder escribir o jugar, en cualquiera de los dos casos tiene ventaja teniendo sus dos niveles de iluminación fuerte y baja.
El tiempo de la batería es muy buena. Para un trabajo de uso normal la batería te pude durar como máximo de entre 4 a 5 horas de uso constante, por otro lado, la recarga de la batería es demasiado rápida cargando completamente (al 100%) en un tiempo estimado de 2 horas. El tiempo de encendido es suficientemente rápido con la memoria SSD de 8GB con la que cuenta integrada, pero si quieres que sea una velocidad aun mas rápida te aconsejo insertarle una SSD de al menos 120GB y aumentar la memoria RAM a 16GB para tener una mejor velocidad de arranque.
El sonido es extremadamente bueno. Para aquellos que les gusta gozar de alto volumen en sus vídeo juegos, películas o música esta laptop rebasa sus expectativas envolviendo tu área de trabajo completamente con un sonido excelente. Un de los puntos clave del sonido MAXXAUDIO PRO, es que al insertar unos audífonos el sonido saliente aumenta notoriamente la calidad del sonido aun que no tengas unos audífonos de "marca" la calidad de sonido no se pierde gracias a el sonido MAXXAUDIO PRO.
Por ultimo agrego que es una inversión muy buena para aquellos que quieren realizar diseños con herramientas que demandan muchos gráficos, o para aquellos quienes juegan vídeo juegos de alta calidad de gráficos, esta laptop puede con eso y con mas.
La computadora hasta el momento ha estado comportandoce muy bien, me agrada el teclado, es muy comodo y las teclas no se sienten mucho al escribir, el sistema corre muy bien y las bocinas se escuchan muy bien, aunque la pila varia de acuerdo al uso que se le da, me dura un poco mas de 4 horas hasta el momento.
Me agrado mucho la laptop y el servicio.
La computadora esta bien, aunque pesada y la batería no dura mucho. No estoy satisfecho con esta compra.
