Dell Inspiron 1520 Reviews

I've had this laptop for about 2 years. We've had our ups and downs but we're stuck with each other now. It came with Vista which I think may be responsible for some of the problems I've had with it. I get Blue Screen Of Death on a regular basis. As a non-geek I am limited as to what I can do to improve its performance. It does work 90% ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Dell two years ago and have been really disappointed with it. Three of the buttons have snapped off after just some simple typing and I've been informed that they don't sell individual buttons so I would have to buy a replacement keyboard. The battery life is absolutely terrible and I was only able to use it for about 1 or 2 hours ...  Read the complete review

**THE LOOK** The laptop measures 36cm wide by 27cm deep and 4cm thick. It has black outer non shinning cover, with silver inner lining, which makes its inner look quite awesome. It has the screen measuring 15.4 inches which is quite bigger in size. It weighs 3.8 kgs. The keyboard section is laid out awesomely with the power button ...  Read the complete review

i am somewhat dissapointed with this laptop. Its extreamly heavy and Bulky. The bluetooth on mine rarely works and i have had to have a person sent out twice to come and fix it at one point almost all of the inside having to be replaced, i have to admitt though that Dell were good at dealing with his both times and seemed happy to help, thank ...  Read the complete review

While heavy and bulky, the laptop provides good usability. The first thing that I noticed was the high quality of the screen resolution, being very well detailed and varying degrees of brightness to serve those in bright light or darkness. The only fault I have found so far is the battery life: 2 to 3 hours is not quite enough for the average ...  Read the complete review

This laptop (funnily enough the one I am typing on this very second) Is without a second thought, the centre of my universe, I am barely ever away from is because I use it so much, that said, says something about how versatile this machine is, it gives flawless performance as far as a laptop is concerned, however it is currently running on what I ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop shortly after it became available. When I first went to purchase it, I built it as a brand new one, and by the time I had built it, with it not even having a few of the accessories that i had wanted it to have, the cost of it was going to exceed $2,500.00. Adding the other accessories would have made it at ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop back in the middle of 2007, just after itwas released for sale. The one that I built on the Dell site was going to cost way too much money for me, about $2500.00. So I waited for a few days, and then I went to the Dell Outlet store, which I didn't know about and accidentally found. Surprisingly, they had ...  Read the complete review

i got the Dell Inspiron 1520 free when i signed up to broadband internet with AOL, and i think its available with several other internet providers as well. When i first took it out of the box my first impression was, it looks huge, however i find it stylish, lightweight and the screen is fairly big (widescreen) so the good points instantly out ...  Read the complete review

I bought one of these in May this year, and it was extremely unreliable at first. It crashed frequently, and it let a virus walk in and (then croaked for good at the end of August). I managed to wipe it at the expense of all of my files, installations not to mention and extensive library of music, photos and some work. Since then I have been ...  Read the complete review

Dell are the best of the best when it comes to computing, when you buy a dell, you know you will be satisfied with it, and although they are sometimes a bit more pricey than others of the same spec, but of different brands, they are well worth the extra money because of there high build quality. However with dell you can only buy ...  Read the complete review

I previously had a rather old Dell laptop which lasted about 4 years before giving up the ghost a year ago. My parents were kind enough to buy me a replacement for Christmas last year which was the 1520. I was very pleased with it, great size, great features (like the touchpad, built in wireless and music playing keys at the front). However ...  Read the complete review

**THE LOOK** Although this machine is a bit on the bulky size, weighing in at a middleweight 3.2kg and measuring 36cm wide by 27cm deep and 4cm thick, this laptop looks smart, with its black cover, silver inner lining and its 15.4 inch screen The keyboard section is laid out with simplicity, not too confusing to the eye, with the ...  Read the complete review

Quite simply a computer which works. After much research and deliberation decided to buy the dell for its overall performance. Unlike some laptops which at first look seemed better value this dell seems to have quality parts accross the board. Things i like -quality touchpad -fast bluetooth inluded (easy connection with ...  Read the complete review
