Dell Vostro 14 3401 review – unpretentious office device
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
Dell Vostro 14 3401 left us with mixed feelings. First of all, for its price tag, the device isn’t bad at all. It feels solid in your hands and you can carry it around without risk of bending if you hold it firmly. The portability of this device is good – it’s compact, it’s light, and the lid has a grippy texture that is definitely a good thing if you like to take your laptop with you frequently. Alas, while the notebook feels solid when it’s closed, we cannot say the same thing about using the keyboard and the touchpad. The keyboard is prone to flexes mostly when you type a bit harshly. The touchpad provides a normal experience while using it but its downside is that it produces a rattling sound when you’re clicking on it. Dell Vostro 14 3401 is a typical office machine for unpretentious usage. Its structure provides solidness when the lid is closed, the display has good viewing angles, the laptop feels snappy while using it for usual daily or office tasks, and the notebook doesn’t cost too much.

75% Dell Vostro 14 3440 review: Compact Powerhouse for Everyday Productivity
Source: 91mobiles English
The Dell Vostro 14 3440 is a well-rounded laptop that hits the sweet spot for professionals and students seeking reliability, portability, and value for money. It is not a powerhouse for gaming or high-end multimedia tasks, and it is not trying to be that. With solid performance from its Intel Core i3 processor, an attractive design, long battery life, and an adequate display, it’s definitely a great choice for those on the go. For the price, it’s hard to beat the balance of performance and affordability that the Dell Vostro 14 3440 offers. Whether you’re writing, attending meetings, or streaming content, this laptop gets the job done without any major compromises.

For gaming enthusiasts, Dell's Alienware brand is for gaming notebooks.


Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

NVIDIA GeForce MX330: Successor of the MX230 and most likely a renamed GeForce MX250/MX150 based on the Pascal GP108 chip with 384 shaders and a 64 Bit memory bus for GDDR5.

AMD Vega 8: Integrated graphics card of the Ryzen APUs based on the Vega architecture with 8 CUs (= 512 shaders) and a clock of up to 1100 MHz.

Intel Iris Xe G7 80EUs: Integrated graphics card in Intel Tiger Lake G7 SoCs based on the new Gen. 12 architecture with 80 EUs (Execution Units / Shader Cluster). The clock rate depends on the processor model. The Tiger Lake chips are produced in the modern 10nm+ process at Intel.

Intel UHD Graphics 64EUs: Integrated graphics card in Intel Alder Lake SoCs based on the new Gen. 12 architecture (Xe) with 64 EUs (Execution Units / Shader Cluster). The clock rate depends on the processor model.

Intel Tiger Lake:

i7-1165G7: An upper mid-range, quad-core processor of Tiger Lake product family. The i7 is designed for use in ultra-light (yet actively cooled) laptops; it is manufactured on Intel's third-gen 10 nm process marketed as SuperFin. The CPU cores run at 2.8 GHz (base clock speed @ 28 W TDP) to 4.7 GHz (single-core Boost frequency). This i7 features the 96 EU Intel Iris Xe G7 iGPU; it was the second-fastest CPU of TGL-UP3 line-up when Intel initially launched the series in 2020.

AMD Picasso (Ryzen 3000 APU):

R5 3500U: Mobile Quad-Core APU using Zen+ cores clocked at 2.1 to 3.7 GHz and a Vega iGPU with 8 CUs running at up to 1200 MHz.

Intel Raptor Lake-U:

i5-1335U: Alder Lake based mobile CPU with 2 performance cores and 8 efficient cores. The performance cores offer hyper threading, leading to 12 threads that can be processed. The CPU clocks from 0.9 to 4.6 GHz. The TDP is specified at 15 Watt.

i3-1305U: On Alder-Lake based mobile CPU with 1 performance core and 4 efficient cores. The performance core offers hyper threading, leading to 6 threads that can be processed. The CPU clocks from 1.2 to 4.5 GHz. The TDP is specified at 15 Watt.

14.00:

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact. 

In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers.

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.
