Reviews for the Dell Inspiron 17 3780-M47RT
Source: Laptop Media Archive.org version
Honestly, today we showed you a good all-rounded device. It does exactly what it is supposed to as a home multimedia laptop and even gives you the opportunity to do some developer work if you pair it with enough memory. We were more impressed, however, by the IPS panel (AUO B173HAN01.3 (AUO139D)) of this laptop. In fact, we were happy to see an IPS display on a device like this in general, and after we did our lab tests on it we can declare that it is one of the best panels for a budget 17-incher. It is very bright, has a decent contrast ratio, its viewing angles are excellent and it doesn’t use PWM to adjust screen brightness. On top of that, it covers 93% of sRGB and with the help of our Gaming and Web design profile it gets right on par with the appropriate dE standard for design work.

17.30": This display size is a standard format for desktop replacements (DTR). The DTR laptops are heavier to carry, need more power, but texts are easy to read and high resolutions are no problem. DTR are mainly intended for stationary desk use, where weight and energy hunger don't matter. In return, you enjoy the advantages of high resolutions (more details, better legibility).» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.79 kg:
With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.
