Dell Inspiron 14 (1464) Review

 

When you need to strike the balance between a desktop-replacement notebook and a laptop for frequent travel you will probably end up shopping for a 14-inch notebook. The Dell Inspiron 14 is one of the most popular laptops in this class and comes packed...

Good performance ; Optional charitable donation ; Attractive price

Average battery life ; Cheap "fake metal" plastics ; No backlit keyboard

The fact that the Inspiron 14 includes an optical drive and a Core i3 processor helps make this laptop an attractive purchase. However, the abundance of flexible plastics and lack of special features like backlit keyboard or more advanced ports make...

Dell Inspiron 14 (1464)

 

The chips inside the Dell Inspiron 14 (1464) should push this average laptop beyond midrange quality. A 2.13GHz Intel Core i3-330M processor and 4GB of RAM should power any typical home or office workload. A decent, 14-inch display gives room to edit...

14-inch display is a good size for entertainment ; Speedy processor easily tackles most tasks

Display has lackluster colors and contrast ; Weak 3D and gaming performance

Nearly all specs and features are just adequate; the Inspiron 14 will be sufficient for many, but it never shines.

Dell Inspiron 14 (1464) Review - A Review of the Dell Inspiron 14 (1464)

 

Strong Core i3 performance, Slick design, Loud speakers, Sharp webcam with fun effects

Awkward keyboard layout, Below-average battery life, Relatively small touchpad buttons, Older 802.11g wireless

After playing Hulu for 15 minutes, the Inspiron 14 got a little warm by the touchpad (98 degrees Fahrenheit) but stayed mostly cool elsewhere. We measured temperatures of 89 degrees between the G and H keys and 90 degrees underneath the machine. Only...

Dell Inspiron I1464-4382OBK

 

Aiding the enjoyment of movies—and music—is the Inspiron i1464-4382OBK's audio subsystem. Featuring SRS Premium Sound, the laptop's two integrated stereo speakers produce loud and clear sound. It rivals the sound of larger 17.3-inch modelsthat come...

Speedy, modern Core i3-based configuration. Size and weight make it a versatile laptop. Big audio. Little bloatware. Sleek yet understated design. Comfortable keyboard and touchpad

So-so battery life

The latest Intel mobile platform, a pleasing design, and booming audio highlight the Dell Inspiron i1464-4382OBK, a versatile 14-inch mainstream laptop.

Dell Inspiron 1464

 

What can be noticed is how long you can keep the laptop away from a power outlet. The 1464 faired the worst in MobileMark 2007 tests, scoring 3 hours 5 minutes. Its battery score was even worse than its predecessor, which scored 3:31. Going from a 48WH...

500GB hard drive. Good performance. Excellent keyboard and navigating experience. Over 200 designs to choose from. Lightweight. Inexpensive

The 6-cell battery alone isn't going to cut it

The Dell Inspiron 1464, mainstream laptop, has a fantastic user experience and feature set, but I wouldn't buy it without the 9-cell battery option.

Dell Inspiron 14 (1464)

 

Decent laptop with the right processor. Go for the i5 if you can spare the extra cash. Not that the i3 isn't fast, cause it is. Overall construction feels a little cheap, and from a 3 foot drop while open the LCD cracked and broke the DVD Drive! Any...

Decent processor (i3 330), Fast DDR3 Memory, Nice crisp bright 720p LED HD display, lightweight and not to bulky. Sound is nice and loud with the "SRS Premium Sound" feature. Windows Experience Index Score of 4.6 due to low end graphics. 5.9 otherwise

Could have a few more ports to plug in other components. Plastic material used feels kinda cheap and weak. Bluray drive would have been nice with the LED HD screen. Glossy finish shows fingerprints easily. The lid is kind of annoying to open without...
