Dell’s Vostro laptop lineup is also getting refreshed with the new Comet Lake-U CPUs from Intel. The first small business model to feature the latest 10th generation Intel chips is the Vostro 13 5391, which now comes with a thinner and lighter, yet sturdier case, plus the latest entry-level discrete GPU from Nvidia.
Thanks to a chassis made of aluminum alloy and plastic (40% glass fiber), the new Vostro 13 5391 weighs only 2.6 lbs. As always, Dell is providing a base model, and users can opt to add more advanced features, depending on budget. Here is a list with all the features:
- 13.3-inch FHD display with TrueLife LEDs and wide viewing angle

- UHD graphics iGPU + Nvidia GeForce MX250 discrete GPU with 2 GB GDDR5 VRAM
- Choice between 128 GB/ 256 GB/ 512 GB/ 1 TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSDs
- Spill-resistant keyboard, backlit option
- Optional fingerprint sensor integrated in the power button
- Stereo speakers with Waves MaxxAudio Pro tuning + dual array mic

I first stepped into the wondrous IT&C world when I was around seven years old. I was instantly fascinated by computerized graphics, whether they were from games or 3D applications like 3D Max. I'm also an avid reader of science fiction, an astrophysics aficionado, and a crypto geek. I started writing PC-related articles for Softpedia and a few blogs back in 2006. I joined the Notebookcheck team in the summer of 2017 and am currently a senior tech writer mostly covering processor, GPU, and laptop news.
