Dell Inspiron i3153-5025BLU 2-in-1 11.6″ Touch-Screen Laptop (Intel Core i3, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD, Blue)

The Dell Inspiron i3153-5025BLU is a small 2-in-1 laptop PC. The 3.1-pound convertible features an 11.6″ display mounted on a 360-degree hinge, an Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB of system memory, and a 128GB solid state drive.

The multi-touch screen sports the classic mediocre 1366-by-768-pixel resolution, but includes IPS-enabled wide viewing angles as a higher-end feature. Content on the display of the i3153-5025BLU is delivered via Windows 10 operating system. It’s powered by the 6th Generation Intel Core i3-6100U lower-mid-range dual-core processor and its Intel HD 520 integrated graphics. These are among optimal solutions for the daily computing tasks of the average home and office user. The CPU can crunch easily common web surfing, productivity work, and high-resolution video playbacks, while the graphics processor can handle some low-level gaming. System memory size of 8GB is enough for normal day-to-day multitasking activities, as well as intensive ones. As for storage, 128GB solid state drive isn’t as capacious as basic 500GB hard drives, but on the positive side it provides significantly better storage performance than HDDs.

Externally, the Dell Inspiron i3153-5025BLU is characterized by sleek look of the 0.8″ plastic-topped chassis with dark blue display lid and bottom and silver-colored keyboard deck. The keyboard features isle-style keys and is supplemented with a touchpad with integrated buttons for left and right click actions. Also are included stereo speakers and a 720p web camera. On the sides, the laptop houses three USB ports, a media card reader, HDMI video output connector, and a combo audio port. For Internet connection, the machine utilizes 802.11n wireless module and also provides Bluetooth connectivity.

There is no info on battery life for this particular model, but Dell claims the Inspiron 3153 series can last “up to 11 hours” on a charge (probably with low screen brightness and power saving features turned on).
