日本Dell Precision 15 3580 review – a thin and light workstation that could be improved
Temperatures and comfort, Battery Life
Max CPU load
In this test we use 100% on the CPU cores, monitoring their frequencies and chip temperature. The first column shows a computer’s reaction to a short load (2-10 seconds), the second column simulates a serious task (between 15 and 30 seconds), and the third column is a good indicator of how good the laptop is for long loads such as video rendering.
Average P-core frequency; Average E-core frequency; CPU temp.; Package Power
| Intel Core i7-1360P (28W TDP) | 0:02 – 0:10 sec | 0:15 – 0:30 sec | 10:00 – 15:00 min |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dell Precision 15 3580 | 3.38 GHz @ 2.63 GHz @ 78°C @ 58W | 2.79 GHz @ 2.06 GHz @ 85°C @ 43W | 2.47 GHz @ 1.88 GHz @ 70°C @ 31W |
| Lenovo Yoga 7i (14″, 2023) | 3.74 GHz @ 2.72 GHz @ 87°C @ 62W | 2.87 GHz @ 2.19 GHz @ 91°C @ 43W | 1.92 GHz @ 1.31 GHz @ 66°C @ 22W |
| Lenovo Yoga 9 (14″, 2023) | 3.45 GHz @ 2.71 GHz @ 81°C @ 64W | 3.00 GHz @ 2.37 GHz @ 92°C @ 50W | 2.17 GHz @ 1.68 GHz @ 72°C @ 28W |
This processor has a lot of potency in short and medium loads. Even the longer ones. On top of that, it does so with minimal fan effort and good temperatures on the inside.
Comfort during full load
This translates to comfort on the outside. Both noise, and heat are well-managed, and we have to praise Dell for its work.
Battery
Now, we conduct the battery tests with Windows Better performance setting turned on, screen brightness adjusted to 120 nits and all other programs turned off except for the one we are testing the notebook with. Battery life, on the other hand, is not great. This unit’s 42Wh package lasts for 4 hours and 12 minutes of Web browsing, or 5 hours and 10 minutes of video playback.
Very good, with the better battery and screen option it becomes very attractive, but the CPU tests have exactly the same results as the Yoga 9i with the same 1360P.
I think there is an error there..
Updating: after my message they updated the Cinebench results to exactly the same result obtained by the MSI Summit E14…
Do you actually test the laptops or do you try to approximate the expected results?
Hello! Yes, we do test them. The result is a strange bug, already reported, thank you!
you did a cool review, many thanks 😀
The left side of the laptop also incorporates a battery status light which doesn’t appear to double as a hard disk activity light as on previous Dell laptops. The manual also makes no mention of a pause/break key combination which used to be Fn+B.
BTW Dell dropped the screen size from its model nomenclature a while back guys. This model is simply called the Precision 3580.
