Well-Equipped and Well-Built The Dell Inspiron 15 3000 (3511) comes equipped with 12GB of RAM, 512GB of solid-state drive storage, an integrated Intel UHD graphics chip, and an Intel Core i5-1035G1 processor. It wades in the shallow end of the graphics pool and comes with half the memory we’d expect of a decent laptop, but the processor is still a step up from the basement-dwelling Celeron CPU used in even cheaper laptops. Our entry-level test configuration is available at $323, but there are configurations available that include up to 12GB of RAM, an Iris Xe graphics solution, and up to 512GB of storage if you’re willing to spend some extra coin. (Here's how to choose the best laptop CPU). The 3511 model doesn’t look much different from the 3505, but that’s not a bad thing. The laptop chassis is well-built and solid, and the carbon-black color gives the machine a sophisticated, clean facade. At 3.8 pounds, it’s on the lighter side of the 15-inch laptop scale, though there are even lighter alternatives, like the 15-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop 4. The 3511 measures in at 0.7 by 14.1 by 9.2 inches (HWD), so it’s about average for its weight class. It may be wide, but it's hardly unwieldy. It’s worth noting Dell’s sustainability efforts have made their way to laptops as well. The company says it incorporates the use of post-consumer recycled plastics into its laptops, though it’s unclear how much has gone into the laptop itself, and where. The packaging tray and packing materials, meanwhile, are made almost entirely of recycled paper. The capable chassis and design impress for a budget laptop, but the wins don’t stop there. The keyboard is quite comfortable, with just the slightest bit of feedback while typing. You also get a dedicated number pad, and the entire board is even spill-resistant, a welcome addition that I did not put to the test. The buttonless touch pad is wide, and there’s plenty of space on either side to rest your hands comfortably without any accidental contact. More Pixels, But Not Brighter Ones One major difference between this model and the previous 3505 model is the 1,920-by-1,080-pixel display. The full-HD, 15.6-inch anti-glare screen is an upgrade from the 1,280-by-720-pixel resolution of its predecessor and another feather in the cap of this capable budget machine. There is no touch-screen option, but it’s not something you’d expect in this price range anyway. Unfortunately, the screen brightness isn’t that bright, registering a maximum of 261 nits in our testing. That means that despite the higher resolution compared with its predecessor, the laptop still makes images and video look dim. The speakers, located underneath the machine, are loud and clear for a laptop of this caliber, though hitting maximum volume actually makes the chassis vibrate. As for the quality, it’s fair; tinny, but not unbearably so. The Inspiron 15 3000 does come packed with ports, though the omission of a USB-C port is disappointing. On the right side, you’ll find an SD card slot, a USB 2.0 port, and an audio jack (a combo-style headphone/mic). The left side includes two USB 3.2 ports (Type-A), an HDMI 1.4 port, and the power-adapter connector.
