Dell Vostro 15 3501 review – an entry-level budget option for your business
Source: Laptop Media Archive.org version
Sadly, we have mixed feelings about this notebook. Even when we take its price under consideration, some corner cuttings, are just too obvious. Speaking of obvious, the most prominent one is definitely the build quality. The plastic used here is on the cheap side, and it doesn’t offer a very good rigidity. And while we like the simplistic design, and the quite decent portability, which is a result of the thin and light chassis, we would prefer higher quality materials.

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.
