Dell Inspiron 11-3147

The Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series is sleek and pleasing to look at. Its metallic-looking case that is actually plastic looks sturdy. This particular Dell Inspiron is a laptop-tablet hybrid at 11.6 inch with a 1366 x 768 pixel touchscreen. IPS technology allows users to view the screen from all sides without losing clarity. It can fold back to 360 degrees on its sturdy dual hinge.

The Inspiron 11 has 3 modes available, laptop, tent (on its edges) and display (standing on its keyboard). The membrane keyboard is spill-resistant. Compared to its competitors the battery life is longer. It reaches an impressive 8 hours during normal use.

The Dell features a powerful hardware for only 1.4 kg. The Inspiron 3000 series is available with Intel Celeron dual core and Pentium quad core, depending on your needs. It houses a 4 GB internal memory and an integrated Intel Bay Trail HD graphics. The hybrid has 3 USB ports (one 3.0), a HDMI port, an SD card slot and a headphone/mic jack. It also has a decent 720p webcam with microphone for video chatting. It is a simple 2-for-1 device (as advertised by the Dell Homepage) that can double as a laptop for work and web-browsing, or a tablet for movies.

With its $180 Inspiron 11 3000, Dell offers a fairly complete Windows 10 experience for a very low price. We also appreciate the strong sound and long-lasting battery, but this laptop's dim display and shallow keys prevent it from being a top budget pick. For $20 more, you can get the Lenovo Ideapad 100S, which has a more comfortable keyboard and even longer battery life.

As far as budget laptops go, the Inspiron 11 would make a great first laptop. It feels reassuringly durable, the bold, fun design is very appealing, and I wouldn’t have any qualms about giving it to a younger user. It’s also a respectable choice for a student. The only major flaw is the screen, but this might not bother you given the price.

The $440 Inspiron 11 3000 is one of the most well-rounded budget 2-in-1s. Performance from its Pentium N3530 CPU was solid, and if you're willing to spend more than $500, you can kit it out with an even speedier Intel Core i3 processor. Its chassis is attractive without skimping on stability; its battery life was second only to the 10-inch Acer Switch 10E; and its display was brighter and more colorful than any of the other convertibles in our summer roundup.

Even though the Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series is a better deal overall, the Lenovo Yoga 2 11’s somewhat sleeker design will likely win its share of buys. I always recommend kicking the tires in person before deciding which you want to own. If you want something faster or with greater screen resolution, shop the Pro variant of the Yoga 2, with its Core processors.

People who derive a lot of satisfaction from saving money by skipping the frills will really like the Inspiron 11 3000 2-in-1 laptop. It doesn’t play serious video games very well, bit it has plenty of power for tablet-oriented games. It provides a hassle-free Windows 8.1 experience and it handles ordinary tasks just fine. It also makes a fine, if somewhat heavy on occasion, tablet.

If you're in the market for an 11.6" convertible, it's easy to recommend the Dell Inspiron 11 unless you need the horsepower of a full Core i5 or i7 machine. The somewhat larger Dell XPS 12 and Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga would be two solid convertibles that come to mind with Intel Core CPUs and 12.5" designs. But those are typically $1,000 or more, and the Inspiron 11 is for those on tighter budgets and modest to moderate computing needs.

The Dell Inspiron 11 2-in-1 a reasonable low-cost purchase for basic uses. It would probably meet the demands of casual users who want a 2-in-1 without paying a premium for one.

In the world of the 2-in-1, there are laptops too bulky to be tablets, and tablets too underpowered to be laptops. The Inspiron 3000 series 2-in-1 is firmly in the first category. It’s a little too bulky and heavy to replace an iPad. Then again, this laptop is priced similarly to an iPad, and actually several hundred less than a new, 128GB iPad Air 2.

Dell's Inspiron 11 3153 feels solid and comes nicely equipped with a solid-state drive and a recent Core i3 CPU. But its keyboard feel doesn't live up to the $599 price tag. And the IPS screen looks nice, but 1080p isn't an option, and there's a bumper crop of bezel here.

Overall, the Inspiron 11 3000 series is a workable pick for tight budgets, but its overall sluggishness prevented us from granting it an Editors' Choice award.

With Inspiron 11, Dell has managed to bring the premium convertible design to a sub-35k range and I am convinced it works in the favour of the device. With Dell Inspiron 11, affordability finally meets the convertible design and it will only get cheaper. If you are a student looking for a notebook to take notes or write assignment, Inspiron 11 easily fits the bill. The fact that it weighs just under 1.5Kg, means you can still carry other stuff. If you are a student thinking of a back-to-school notebook, I think this is where your money should be.

Dell Inspiron 11 3179 review – ultra-budget 2-in-1 – is it worth it?!
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
This 11.6-inch 2-in-1 provides everything that a casual user would need. It’s fast and reliable, although it won’t be the first choice in certain departments. Actually, in many cases you won’t be impressed by the Inspiron 11 3179. First of all – build quality. It looks good and shiny, especially in a white dress but when you take in account that Dell used only plastic, the picture starts to get less rosy. All the bright and shine of the surface is going to disappear in no time, as it is super scratchable.

The convertible Dell Inspiron 11 3000 Series 2-in-1 is inexpensive, has a decent amount of performance for a budget system, and is a good value overall. However, the Lenovo Yoga 710 (11") holds on to its top spot thanks to its higher-resolution screen, speedy SSD storage, and extra hours of battery life, even with a price tag that's $200 higher. If you need to stay under $500, alternatives include chromebooks like the Samsung Chromebook Plus and the Dell Chromebook 3189 Education 2-in-1, or the Windows-based Asus Transformer Mini.

80% Dell Inspiron 11 3000 (2017) Review
Source: Laptop Mag English Archive.org version
We're astonished to see 13-plus hours of battery life from a $199 laptop, as well as audio that sounds this sweet. And while I don't love the display, it's acceptable at this price. If you can live within the limits of Chrome OS, an alternative would be the $229 Acer Chromebook 11 N7, which offers an excellent keyboard and similar performance. The Lenovo Ideapad 110S is currently on sale for $159, though it doesn't last as long on a single charge. Overall, the Dell Inspiron 11 3000 is a smart choice for users with modest demands and tight budgets.

From the outside, the Inspiron 11 3000 2-in-1 looks, and even feels, decent enough considering the cost, simple enough to tuck under your arm and take with you. And if all you need to do is perform the most basic Windows 10 computing functions (email, single-tab web browsing, basic office-suite stuff), it will do the job.Length 4

69.14%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
