Dell Inspiron 15 3000 3511 laptop review: Making cheaper better

Super quiet.

Is $550 enough for a decent laptop these days? The new Inspiron 15 3511 comes with the 11th gen Core i5 CPU to make it nearly as fast as most pricier Ultrabooks, but you'll have to live with a handful of cut corners including the lack of even a USB-C port.

The Inspiron 15 3511 is the direct successor to last year's Inspiron 15 3501. It introduces a brand new chassis design that's both thinner and lighter for increased portability. There are a few other surprises as well to help the Inspiron 15 3511 edge out many other models in its budget price range.

SKUs range from the Core i3-1115G4 up to the Core i7-1165G7 with UHD Graphics or Iris Xe, 4 GB to 12 GB of RAM, and 128 GB to 512 GB PCIe NVMe storage. A 1080p IPS display comes standard with optional touch. Our specific review unit is a mid-range configuration with a Core i5 CPU, 8 GB of single-channel RAM, 256 GB SSD, and 1080p touchscreen for approximately $550 USD retail.

Competitors in this space include other inexpensive 15.6-inch multimedia/office laptops like the HP Pavilion 15, Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15, Asus VivoBook S15, or the Acer Aspire series.

Case

The revamped Inspiron 15 3511 design significantly shrinks the bottom "chin" bezel of the 3501 for a greater screen-to-body ratio. The system now also utilizes similar hinges as found on the VivoBook, MSI Prestige, or HP Pavilion to lift the base at a slight angle for improved ergonomics and airflow. Most of the chassis continues to be plastic, however, and so the system doesn't feel any more rigid or of higher quality than the older Inspiron 15 3501 despite the full-on redesign. The keyboard center, outer lid, and edges of the base can twist and warp fairly easily with enough pressure.

The new model is approximately 11 percent smaller and 15 percent lighter than its predecessor. However, the 3501 design was actually quite large meaning that the 3511 design is more comparable to the Pavilion, VivoBook, or IdeaPad 3 in terms of size and weight.

Plastic base and keys are distinctly budget in contrast to the metal materials of costlier Inspiron 7000 or XPS models

Connectivity

There are fewer ports on the newer Inspiron 15 3511 when compared to the older Inspiron 15 3501. The Cable lock slot and RJ-45 port, for example, are now completely gone. Dell didn't even bother to include a USB-C option.

Interestingly, the HDMI port here can only support up to 1080p60 and with no 2K or 4K options according to Dell's own product page.

SD Card Reader

The integrated SD card reader is slow. Transferring 1 GB of pictures from our UHS-II test card to desktop takes over 50 seconds compared to just 14 seconds on the HP Pavilion 15-eg.

Communication

A 1x1 Wi-Fi 5 module is included instead of the usual 2x2 Wi-Fi 6 module likely to save on costs. Though real-world transfer rates are mediocre, they are at least stable and reliable enough for streaming purposes.

There appears to be no improvements to camera quality from last year's Inspiron 3501. There is no webcam shutter or Windows Hello support, either.

Accessories and Warranty

There are no extras in the box other than the AC adapter and paperwork. The standard one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies.

Input Devices

Keyboard

Key feedback is a tad lighter and softer than expected for a spongy feel. The Space and Enter keys in particular feel weaker than they should be when compared to the same keys on an HP Pavilion, Lenovo IdeaPad, or Asus VivoBook.

A keyboard backlight is not available.

Touchpad

The clickpad is relatively large at 11.5 x 8 cm compared to 10.5 x 7.3 cm on the Asus Vivobook 15 K513EQ or 11.5 x 7.4 cm on the 2021 HP Pavilion 15. Its surface is stickier than on many other clickpads as well particularly when gliding at slower or medium-slow speeds. It's reliable enough for regular cursor control, but other actions like clicking or dragging-and-dropping can be tiring without actual buttons or a USB mouse.

Display

The Inspiron 15 3511 uses a different BOE panel than the one found on the older Inspiron 15 3501 (BOE NV15T06 vs. BOE NV15N3D). Despite this, core attributes are largely unchanged including the very narrow color space. Contrast ratio and response times are actually quite decent for a budget laptop, but the limited sRGB reproduction in particular is what ultimately separates this Inspiron display from a pricier XPS, Spectre, or ZenBook alternative. Colors appear shallower and not nearly as vivid which is par for the course for most cheap laptops.

* ... smaller is better

Color space is limited to just 59 percent of sRGB compared to >90 percent on pricier alternatives like the XPS 15. The narrow gamut is to be expected on budget laptops such as our Inspiron 15.

Color temperature is slightly too warm out of the box which our X-Rite colorimeter is able to address. Once calibrated, average grayscale and color DeltaE values would drop from 5.1 and 6.34 to just 0.7 and 2.08, respectively. Nonetheless, the poor color reproduction mentioned above means that deltaE will inevitably increase significantly at higher saturation levels.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
24 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 14 ms rise
↘ 10 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 50 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (21 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
31.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 17.2 ms rise
↘ 14.4 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 39 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is similar to the average of all tested devices (32.8 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8684 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

Outdoor visibility is poor even if working under shade. Maximum brightness would automatically drop from 240 nits to just 207 nits when running on battery power to make an already dim display even dimmer if no AC outlet is nearby. We cannot find the appropriate Dell, Windows, or Intel setting that is responsible for the automatic battery brightness control.

Performance

Testing Conditions

Our unit was set to Best Performance via Windows prior to running any performance benchmarks below for the highest possible scores.

Processor

Overall CPU performance is within just a few percentage points of the average laptop in our database equipped with the same Core i5-1135G7 processor. Performance sustainability is also good even though the initial Turbo Boost benefits are much smaller when compared to pricier alternatives like the Asus ExpertBook B1 B1500CEAE or Honor MagicBook 15 as shown by our CineBench R15 xT loop results below.

Upgrading to the Core i7-1165G7 is only expected to increase single-thread and multi-thread performance by 5 and 15 percent, respectively. Meanwhile, downgrading to the Core i3-1115G4 option is expected to decrease multi-thread performance by almost 30 percent.

System Performance

PCMark results are where we expect them to be relative to other laptops with the same processor and graphics despite the disappointing GPU results mentioned below. Thus, the system still feels as snappy as any other 11th gen Core-U Ultrabook for undemanding day-to-day office-type workloads.

GPU Performance

Graphics performance is 30 to 45 percent slower than the average laptop in our database equipped with the same integrated Iris Xe 80 EUs GPU. The disappointing results can be mostly contributed to the measly 8 GB of single-channel memory compared to 16 GB or more of dual-channel memory on the vast majority of pricier models. It's highly recommended to install another stick of RAM if maximizing GPU performance is a priority.
