I bought my Dell Inspiron 15r laptop last year and it has been great!

In terms of aesthetics, I love the look of it, it came with a sleek diamond black cover. The screen is average size but HD and the sound is good considering it's a laptop and the speakers are inbuilt. Mine has an i5 processor so it is pretty fast. The built in webcam is superb, you can take some good pics. The memory size is 4GB means you can store lots of files.

An additional feature that I like is that you can personalise the laptop by changing the covers as they have clips to switch them.

The only things I was not completely happy about are the CD/DVD cover and the mouse. The cover on the right hand side which opens for CDs was a little flimsy and sometimes I have to clip it back on. However this is a minor issue with an inspired laptop! At times the mouse can become stuck and this means you have to wait for it to move. But this in truth only happens from time to time.

I have found that the battery life is fine and I do use it lots for work and home. I would recommend this laptop to anyone who has to use a laptop lots and wants style and function.
