Reviews for the Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1

78.8% Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 convertible review: AMD offers key advantage over Intel | Notebookcheck
The Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 replaces the older Inspiron 14 2-in-1 series with both a fresh new name and the latest processors from AMD and Intel. You might want to choose carefully between the Intel and AMD configurations, however.
75% Dell 14 Plus review: Everyday performance, average battery
Source: India Today English
If you’re looking for a new Windows laptop for school, college or everyday office work, the Dell 14 Plus is definitely one you can consider. It also comes in several other configurations if you want more storage, but in terms of power and day-to-day performance, this machine does its job well. In India, the Dell 14 Plus starts at Rs 76,940, which makes it a solid option if you want a slim, lightweight laptop without crossing the Rs 1 lakh mark. For the price, you get a capable device that can comfortably sail you through your routine tasks and busy workdays. Yes, it does come with a few compromises. The touchpad could have been smoother, the machine gets warm up under heavier loads and the battery is strictly average. But if you can manage with them, this is a dependable, no-nonsense productivity laptop. If you want a laptop which prioritises portability, a clean design, good day-to-day performance and a price that doesn’t stretch your budget too far, the Dell 14 Plus fits the brief quite well.

Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 review: Strong performance in a folding convertible
Source: Think Digit English
The Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 is a reliable companion for those who value portability, performance, and versatility in equal measure. It delivers strong everyday performance, a gorgeous display, and the flexibility of a convertible design, making it ideal for those who switch between work, creativity, and entertainment on the go. While the port selection could have been better and the speakers aren’t the loudest, these are small trade-offs for what is otherwise a solid all-rounder. If you’re a student, creative professional, or writer who needs a laptop that can adapt to different workflows without lagging, the Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 is an excellent pick.

Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 laptop review: Marvellous battery life and impressive performance for under $1,000
Source: Mashable English
For everything this laptop offers at just $949.99 full price (and often even less if you catch it on sale), the Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 is absolutely worth it for those looking to get the best bang for their buck. Sure, it has a lousy webcam, middling speakers, and a trackpad that gives me the ick. But it’s powered by an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 processor that provides impressive performance and assists in delivering jaw-dropping battery life — and those two features alone are objectively more important than a good webcam, set of speakers, or trackpad.Stellar performance and efficiency aren’t the only two things the 14 Plus 2-in-1 has going for it, either. During testing, I enjoyed typing at my normal lightning-fast pace on its keyboard, found its plentiful ports to my liking (though I wished one of the left-side USB-C ports would scooch over to the right side), and loved how sturdy the hinges felt, even after multiple mode switches.

60% Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 (DB04255) Review: A Solid Build, But a Second-Tier Value
Source: PC Mag English
The Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1 feels like a midrange laptop built with all the right intentions but held back by a few key compromises. You get a sturdy, travel-ready design and a surprisingly pleasant typing experience, wrapped up in a slick aluminum chassis that looks and feels more premium than the price suggests. The AMD chip's performance profile is fine for office work and light creative tasks, but it’s outclassed at times by competitors in the same price bracket, especially in graphical workloads. At least this laptop has decently long battery life going for it. While it didn't receive an Editors' Choice award, the Framework Laptop 12 could be a better alternative for its upgradable, modular design for a similar price, if you can abide its much smaller screen.
