Review

Dell 15 in-depth review

Budget laptops are supposed to be simple. You pick a processor, choose how much RAM and storage you need, and get on with your life. The Dell 15 (DC15250), however, is a bit more complicated than that. On the surface, it looks like a very standard 15.6-inch office laptop, but the exact configuration can change more than you might expect.For example, the chassis version affects the webcam, microphones, USB-C functionality, and even the overall user experience. The plastic Carbon Black model, which we chose and ordered, comes with a data-only USB-C port, a 720p webcam, and a single microphone, while the aluminum version can offer a better webcam setup and more capable USB-C.

Very easy to service and maintain
Two user-accessible SODIMM slots
Replaceable SSD, Wi-Fi card, battery, and fan
120Hz display option makes everyday navigation feel smoother
Includes a full-size keyboard with NumPad
SD card reader is useful for a budget office laptop
Samsung PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD performs well for the class

Cons

Very limited color coverage – 51% sRGB and 41% DCI-P3
Low-frequency PWM flickering below 100% brightness without Health-Guard

HDMI is limited to 1080p at 60Hz
USB-C on the plastic chassis is data-only, with no charging or DisplayPort
720p webcam, single microphone, and no privacy shutter on the plastic chassis

Disassembly, maintenance and upgrade options

Step 1: Removing the bottom panelPower off the laptop and place it on a soft, clean surface. Undo the 6 removable Phillips-head screws and loosen the 2 captive corner screws. The captive screws slightly lift the bottom cover, giving you a useful starting point for a thin plastic pry tool. Carefully release the clips around the edges and lift the bottom panel away from the chassis.More info: Once inside, the layout is easy to read. The battery is positioned at the lower side, the single-fan cooling system sits on the left, the memory slots are near the center-right,[...]
