Back to school on a budget: Choosing a cheap laptop to fit your needs

 

We reviewed eight mainstream budget laptops—because "cheap" doesn't have to mean "awful."

Above-average performance ; Case looks like it belongs on a much more expensive laptop

Chintzy screen ; Trackpad precision is subpar

We also examined what third-party software/bloatware came with each laptop. One way manufacturers push down costs on these low-end machines is by laying out deals with software companies: "We'll put your software on our machine so you get more...

Dell Inspiron 15 5000 2-in-1

 

The Dell Inspiron 15 5000 2-in-1 has great performance thanks to a quad-core Intel Core i5 processor, but it suffers from disappointing battery life and a weak display.

Flexible 2-in-1 design; Newest Intel 8th-Gen CPU; Speedy 256GB SSD

No USB-C port; Dull and dim display; Runs hot; Very short battery life

Dell Inspiron 15 5000 Touch

 

The Dell Inspiron 15 5000 Touch has a bright touch screen, a Windows Hello camera and a brushed-aluminum palm rest that are great for the price, but its poor battery life could be a deal breaker.

Fantastic viewing angles; good overall performance; runs cool

Poor battery life; stiff keyboard and touchpad; subpar speakers

Dell Inspiron 15 5000 review

 

The Dell Inspiron 15 5000 is a nice middle-of-the-road laptop that you can get for cheap. Read on to see if the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 is worth your cash.

Core i7 processor Dedicated AMD graphics Smart exterior design Decent build quality

Low screen resolution and quality Middling battery life Mediocre keyboard

The Core i7 processor and AMD graphics make this a powerful all-rounder, and it's got good looks and reasonable build quality. The keyboard isn't great, though, and the Inspiron's screen lacks resolution and quality.

Dell Inspiron 15 5000 Series review: One of the most attractive budget laptops on the market

 

I have to hand it to Dell: In the category of "$500 laptops," the veteran manufacturer came pretty close to nailing a well-rounded machine with few major compromises.

The Dell Inspiron 15 5000 Series is perfect for our review purposes in that it's almost perfectly average. It's ever so slightly better than the by-the-books 15-inch laptop you'd expect to see at a circa-$500 price point, with a marginally better case...
