Dell are one of the most widely known laptop manufacturers around.

Dell Laptops
Dell is similar to Apple in that they have created a strong presence when it comes to laptops and desktop computers by focusing on their image and accessibility. However what you really need to know is whether their products are any good and whether they are value for money.
Dell laptops are a bit like marmite in that you either love them or hate them. Generally if you go onto a technology forum the people there will have a strong dislike for the company as a whole as in general the laptops are not of the highest quality and relatively speaking are quite expensive.
However if you ask a casual computer user whether they are satisfied with their dell computer they are likely to tell you that they are. The great thing about Dell is that you can choose how you want your laptop to look and what specification you want it to have and they will custom build it for you. That means you can decide down to the component level what you would like in your machine although you will pay a premium for this. On the other hand if you don’t know much about computing you can buy readymade laptops or computers based on what you would like to do with them. For example the XPS range is for gaming while the Inspiron range is generally for casual users.
Dell Inspiron 15 Review
At around £600 the Inspiron 15 isn’t exactly cheap but there are also a lot more expensive laptops on the market. So is it worth the money?
It is difficult to put an exact measure of the speed and performance of the Inspiron 15 because as I mentioned earlier you can customise it so heavily. No matter which components you want in the machine you can select them on the website while you are ordering, but the down side is that if you do this the price will escalate very quickly from the original £600 to much more.
While I can’t really talk about the individual components one thing that is common to all Inspiron 15 laptops is the keyboard and the chassis. Both of these are well made and do their job well so there is no complaint there.
While the Inspiron 15 definitely isn’t the best Dell laptop available for the money you get a high quality machine that is customised exactly how you want it. If you aren’t going to be gaming then it is definitely an option for you and a laptop you should consider.
Dell XPS 16 Review
The XPS range is generally a lot more powerful than the Inspiron although this does come at an extra cost. Like the Inspiron with the XPS 16 you can choose lots of upgrades when you order and have the machine custom built when ordering from the Dell website but you should be aware at how quickly this will increase the machines price.
The first thing to note about the XPS 16 is that it looks fantastic. For your money you get a backlit keyboard as well as a screen that extends right to the edge of the laptop. The keyboard is also very easy to use and feels natural.
The problems with it are that you don’t get a great battery life for your money and if you want to get the highest quality screen you have to pay extra. For that reason if you are going to be using the laptop as a portable device then this probably isn’t the one for you but if you want a desktop replacement then it is definitely an option.
