Reviews for the Dell Inspiron 15 5578-1777 2-in-1
Kaby Lake Upgrade. A powerful processor, IPS display and quick SSD: these are the fundamental building blocks for a good office computer, and the Inspiron provides them all. A backlit keyboard and a good battery life build on that foundation, and the built-in touchscreen can be operated with a stylus. The whole package costs just under 800 Euros (~$850).

The Inspiron 15 5578 is a good all-rounder with a few drawbacks that need to be considered. Build quality, however, isn’t one of them. The device surprises with firm and robust construction and excellent input devices. The keyboard is comfortable while the trackpad is precise and big enough to replace your external mouse. However, we have some concerns about the ergonomy and weight. The sharp corners make the device a bit uncomfortable to hold at times while the weight beats the purpose of a 2-in-1 hybrid.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.
