    Videocard not much chop?

  • The listing has a 31+ days delay for delivery, which is bad. Don't expect this to arrive anytime soon.

    • +4

      Thats the norm with Dell Ebay listings, it will usually show the estimated postage date to be a month out but ship within a few business days. However there are also some users on Ozb that have had to wait the full month to get their items. In my personal experience purchasing monitors for a friend, they had an estimated date of about a month out but arrived within a week and a half.

    • I ordered a laptop from them on ebay last Saturday which had an end of May eta. It showed up yesterday so 6 day turnaround.

      • ok that's good. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Just looking at this i think the Asus ROG Flow X13 (2022) seems to be better on paper. And its only going for $1999 at the moment.

    No dedicated numpad unlike previous model?

    • +1

      Revoked my plus for this.
      16" no numpad is crazy.

      • +1

        true, this would have been the perfect laptop for home AND work if it had the numpad

    • +2

      This is the exact reason I'm interested, I never use it and it makes the trackpad off centre.

      • The trackpad is centered with the keyboard, not the palm rest. The design makes complete sense.

  • I bought one with extended 3Y warranty 3 days ago, coz they said I can pay the price of 2Y warranty and get 3Y ones, and that extended warranty price will also eligible for the 20% off code, soI think it should be a good decision?

    • Has it shipped yet?

      • No, I don’t think they will ship within 1 month? Coz when I search the full model name or just “7620”on YouTube, no one has this model, and not even a single video about this model. So I think it is kind of preorder thing?

        • Theyll ship soon enough. I bought one of these on 30th march, delivered 15th april. It originally said early may.

  • The keyboard does NOT seem to have a number pad - if that is important for you.
    No mention of a pen / pen compatibility.

    • Ordered off a previous deal. Included an active pen to use with the laptop.

  • +2

    I'd wait for benchmarks. Unless you're dying to buy one. I heard a rumour that these new Intel chips have LESS battery life than the previous generation.

    I got a Lenovo X1 Gen 2 (like 4 or 5 years old) which has an 14" OLED screen, a few months ago for $1k on eBay. Does most everything I want, browsing and watching TV, except speakers suck, so I use a bluetooth dongle BTR5 to high-end headphones. I realised I don't need anything better, I just play Slay the Spire with my finger and I'm happy. I will need to take 2x 20,000 mAh powerbanks with me so battery will last on flights to Asia and back.

    Bestbuy has listed the new HP Spectre 16: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-spectre-2-in-1-16-uhd-touch-…

    https://www.notebookcheck.net/HP-Spectre-x360-16-US-pricing-…

    I looked at the previous model in store at JB-Hifi and it's the prettiest OLED 2in1.

    The ARC 370M has a 6nm process size, double the texture mapping units and double the ROPs of the MX550 which has a 12nm process size. This means the ARC 370M has much more transistors. Which means over double the pixel rate and texture rate. Of course max power draw is 10w higher, 25w vs 35w minimum (maybe even 50w).

    I'd also prefer a 90Hz or 120Hz panel but that's a lot to ask for.

  • +2

    My wife bought this for the same price about half a month ago when it was on the same sale along with a number of other configs. Her specific requirements were big screen (15.6+), fast cpu, and 2-in 1. (it does pen). Haven't benchmarked or anything. I'm willing to answer reasonable questions.

    • How’s the heat and fan noise for web surfing/video/games etc

      • +1

        Heats up fairly quick under load - fans not too crazy. Web browsing or video doesn't really cause much heat unless you're browsing fairly intensively or on some JS heavy pages. Was just listening to a YouTube video, browsing a forum and using ninite to update, and fans barely kicked in and weren't audible.

        Don't really have games on here yet, only had it for a week.

    • May you please share yours and your wife's feedback thus far?

      e.g.

      • keyboard trackpad experience/feel (is the keyboard mushy, low/high key travel, trackpad sensititivy)
      • configuration (FHD+ or UHD+, i7 or i5)
      • screen (colour, is it bright enough at 300/400 nits)
      • battery life (does the 87Wh battery last your average day)
      • build quality (any flex on the keyboard, ports, physical buttons/switches)
      • primary use case for the device (casual/family laptop, WFH, kids, streaming etc)
      • speakers (audio quality from the speakers)
      • and any other details, feedback, or issues encountered

      Thanks in advance.

      The reason I ask is because I may consider picking up one of these to replace my ageing Surface Pro 4 (m3, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD).

      • +3

        I’ve got the $1499 one from the previous deal linked. FHD+, no dedicated gpu, i7.

        Coming from a 4-5 year old xps. Though haven’t used it much. Took about 2-3 weeks from ordering I think.

        Screen is fine indoors in reasonably bright room - 300 nits glossy on the non oled version.

        Keyboard is okay. Tiny bit less key gap than the 13” xps which is frustrating given the wasted space either side of the keyboard.

        No noticeable flex on the keyboard.

        Touchpad is big and good. No sign of previous version issue you can read about in reviews/forums.

        16” is nice.

        16” is heavy. Fine for my shared home pseudo desktop. Wouldn’t want to lug anywhere.

        Battery life will be different between the one here and mine due to gpu and screen difference.

        Estimated time on the non-oled at full brightness is about 6 hours. More with less brightness, but def wouldn’t rely on it for an all day charge as battery will degrade over time.

        • +1

          I just got mine a few days ago and have got serious issues with the touchpad. Left click not working, laggy, unresponsive, random touches etc. Have contacted Dell to get this resolved.

      • +5

        This is the $1899 config listed in the post, 400 nit, UHD+, i7 1260p with MX550.

        No/next-to-no flex on base, little flex on screen, but overall quite good build quality. I would normally expect more flex on something this big. Keyboard feels like rubber dome with about 2mm travel. Not mushy as far as dome KB goes. Very flat. Keys stand proud and go flush with chassis when pressed. No Numpad. Trackpad hasn't disappointed me so far, and is nice and huge, to go with the size of the laptop. Is bounded by a slit on 3 sides which I see as a dust magnet. Has the terrible half-height up/down arrows with full height left/right arrows in a straight line

        Sound is ordinary. Only buttons are the keyboard, with the power button being a combo fingerprint reader top right next to delete key. Power button is recessed to avoid accidental presses.

        OLED 400 Nit is very nice indeed, screen has a slight rainbow effect on coating when viewed from extreme angles (170 deg) which I assume is the oleophobic coating. There's a sticker advertising a "Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution)" and it is indeed a little warmer than normal. Colours are the usual vivid oversaturated look and perfect blacks that you get from OLED. Not sure how it's going to hold up over time, but that's just OLED.

        We only use sporadically, so can't give you any real feedback on battery life. It is mostly a casual/family use for a couple hours of video / budgeting on the couch each night. But will be used for remote work if needed.

        Works with a Dell active pen, no troubles. Doesn't appear to have a spot for it to clip to magnetically. Appears to have IR camera for faceID, and a physical slider to block the cameras. Ports are 1 HDMI, 2 USB-A (one each side) 2 USB-C, headphone/set jack and full-side SD slot (so tired of micro SD slots)

        Is very heavy - I would have preferred a 13-inch XPS for build quality and lightness, but it's not my laptop.

        You should be able to download/view a service manual here

      • "replace my ageing Surface Pro 4" - I upgraded my SP4 i5 to an SP8 a few months ago and tbf this deal makes me wonder if I should have waited a bit longer… much bigger though.

  • Does it come with a pen?

    • no

    • I got a similar lower specced model and it did come with a pen.

    • Same here. Ordered off a previous deal. Included an active pen to use with the laptop.

    • They say “An active pen offers you a natural and accurate writing experience with no pairing required.” so I interpret that as included. They don’t say sold separately / not included, and presumably you would need to ‘pair’ a separately purchased pen with the machine?

  • +1

    The Dell spec sheet says the machine accepts a max 32GB of RAM, but the i71260P processor can technically run up to 64GB. Does anyone have experience trying to install more RAM in these Inspiron machines to what Dell specify, and did you have luck? One day I plan to upgrade to 32GB RAM, but for the price difference would prefer to just slap 64GB in and be set

  • +1

    Just received mine, I can confirm there is a pen inside the box, the pen is called PN5122W active pen

    • Cool! How's the trackpad? :)

      • Let me be honest, after 10 mins using the trackpad, I disabled it and use the razer ;)

        • Oh… were there any problems with it, or you just prefer the mouse?

          • +1

            @Mostly Fanless: It is not as good like the pad on Mac, at this stage, I rather use mouse just for the efficiency

  • Got mine today. Anyone having issues with popping audio through the built in speakers? If you set the volume slider to 50% or above it pops at the start of the ‘ding’ sound.

    • I had an issue where my left speaker would rattle/vibrate against the chassis when the volume was loud and bass sounds would play. I contacted Dell and they sent a replacement and it seems like this one is fine.
