Indeed, you have to give up on some stuff, like an IPS display, a Thunderbolt connector, and of course - powerful hardware.However, despite the budget-friendly price tag, this notebook comes with some decent processors. Yes, they are 15W ones, but they are also part of the Ice Lake 10nm processor family of Intel, so we expect good battery life, low temperatures, and quite the power (for 15W chips, of course).

However, inside we find an Ice Lake processor with some decent upgradability options - take a look.Check out all Dell Vostro 3591 prices and configurations in our Specs System or read more in our In-Depth review.1.

    Office Work

    Office Work should be used mostly by users who spend most of the time looking at pieces of text, tables or just surfing. This profile aims to deliver better distinctness and clarity by keeping a flat gamma curve (2.20), native color temperature and perceptually accurate colors.

    Design and Gaming

    This profile is aimed at designers who work with colors professionally, and for games and movies as well. Design and Gaming takes display panels to their limits, making them as accurate as possible in the sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standard for Web and HDTV, at white point D65.

    Health-Guard

    Health-Guard eliminates the harmful Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) and reduces the negative Blue Light which affects our eyes and body. Since it’s custom tailored for every panel, it manages to keep the colors perceptually accurate. Health-Guard simulates paper so the pressure on the eyes is greatly reduced.
