Dell Precision 5520 review

 

Can Dell's classy office machine work its magic?

Superb physical design ; High-quality keyboard ; Dedicated Nvidia Quadro graphics

High price ; Similarly-priced rivals are more powerful ; No internal access

The Dell Precision 5520 offers good quality, with solid components, a fine screen and welcoming ergonomics, and it looks the part – but it’s pricey, and rivals are more powerful.

Dell Precision 5520 review

 

Can the latest Dell workstation laptop tackle the mighty MacBook Pro?

Fast processor; Professional GPU; Decent screen quality; Solid ergonomics and design
