Reviews for the Dell Inspiron 13-7348-0309

Dell Inspiron 13 7000 Series 2-in-1
Source: Liliputing English Archive.org version
The Dell Inspiron 13 7000 Series 2-in-1 is a solid choice if you’re looking for a speedy notebook that’s reasonably light-weight, and which can also occasionally be used in tent or tablet mode. But before plunking down $750 or more to buy this particular model, you should keep in mind that it gets kind of lousy battery life, has a non-removable battery has a somewhat noisy fan, and is a little too big and heavy to use as a handheld tablet for an extender period of time.

This machine is an ideal notebook for students who need to bang out papers and general users who want a fast, compact notebook to tote around. If battery life and weight are your primary concerns, though, you'd be better off with HP's Spectre x360. But if those aren't major priorities, you could do a lot worse than Dell's special edition Inspiron.

The build quality, software experience, and overall design leave little to gripe about. The Inspiron 13 7000 SE looks and feels like a premium machine, through and through. The only major drawbacks come as a direct result of this machine being so powerful. Excess heat and fan noise to an extent, will be unavoidable, so those favoring an ultra-quiet device will need to look elsewhere.

While it can sometimes get a little too hot for comfort, the Dell Inspiron 13 7000 Special Edition is a powerful and stylish hybrid. The $1,000 Core i7 configuration we tested is faster than most systems in its class. Overall, we prefer the HP Spectre x360 for its longer battery life and lighter all-aluminum design, but the Inspiron 13 Special Edition deftly balances price and performance, with some seriously sharp looks.

Model: The Dell Inspiron 13-7348 convertible is a very versatile device. It has a black lid and an aluminium body on the inside with a plastic palm rest. The laptop with typical Dell look look weighs in around 1.67 kg. It uses an glossy IPS display from Samsung with a size of 13,3 inch, a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and touchscreen functionality. The graphics card it runs on is the standard Intel HD Graphics 5500.

The Inspiron-13-7348 either features a Core i5 with 8  GB RAM and 500GB HDD or a Core i7 clocked at 2,4 GHz (max. turbo clock: 3 GHz) with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB HDD. Its speakers are located at the bottom of the laptop instead of the sides and are driven by an Intel Broadwell sound card. This convertible also comes with a USB 2.0 port, two USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI port, a Kensington lock for security, a standard 3.5 mm stereo jack with microphone, an SD card slot and a 43 Wh Lithium Ion battery with an estimated 6.5 hours of runtime. Additionally, it has a 1.3 MP webcam above the display and a keyboard with backlight.

Intel HD Graphics 5500: Integrated graphics card (GT2) in the Core processors of the Broadwell U-series (15 W TDP). 

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  


5500U: Broadwell-based ULV (ultra low voltage) dual-core processor for notebooks and ultrabooks. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 5500 GPU and is manufactured in 14 nm.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

75%: 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.
