Dell Inspiron 11z: Do More With Less

Weighing approximately 3 pounds and measuring just 1 inch thin, you'd never guess the slim and sleek Dell Inspiron 11z laptop would pack such a big punch. The nicely affordable Inspiron 11z boasts a high-definition 11.6-inch display and an Intel ultra-low-voltage processor that offers a good mix of multitasking with extended battery life--up to 6.7 hours. Other features include a near full-size keyboard, easy-to-use floating touchpad with concealed touch control, HDMI output for connecting to an HDTV, and an integrated 1.3-megapixel webcam with a built-in microphone for on-the-go video chats.



The Dell Inspiron 11z (in Obsidian Black) weighs just 3 pounds and features a high-definition 11.6-inch screen.


The USB port on the left side is powered, so your mobile phone will still charge even when the 11z is asleep.


The 11z also features an HDMI output for audio and video as well as a 3-in-1 memory card reader.
Pre-installed with the Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium operating system (64-bit version), you'll be able to easily create a home network and share all of your favorite photos, videos, and music.

Better ways to find and manage files, like Jump Lists and improved taskbar previews, help you speed through everyday tasks. Windows 7 is designed for faster and more reliable performance, so your PC just works the way you want it to.

Note: This laptop does not come with an integrated optical drive; you can connect an optional external drive via one of the netbook's USB ports.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great CPU for the price, January 9, 2010

I want to add one thing that is perhaps easy to overlook with this laptop: it has the best CPU in it's class and price range. Most notebooks with an 11.6 inch screen have a Celeron CPU (such as the new Acer 1410 series). This means less cache and no "Intel Speedstep" which is an important power saving feature (mostly used when in battery mode). Celeron laptops will drain your battery quickly when you use any compute heavy task. The other common CPU is a single core "Core Solo". The single core CPUs have the bad habit of slowing to a crawl whenever the anti-virus kicks in (because it can't offload that task to the second core) and being generally slow if you run any internet security software(which any sane person would today but adds a lot of background CPU tasks that can run on a second core if you have one). You can step up to a full Core2 Duo, but that can add 20%-30% onto the cost (see the Acer Timeline series).

4.0 out of 5 stars Just received this computer, December 4, 2009

This review is from: Dell Inspiron 11 11.6-Inch Obsidian Black Laptop (Windows 7 Premium) (Personal Computers)
Very nice computer but I want to share a couple of specifics that others have questioned.
1. This comes with a 6 cell battery so it sticks out on the bottom in back. Very good battery life- about 7 hours yesterday.
2. Windows 7 is the 64-bit version.
3. There is 4 GB Ram.
Much faster than my Dell mini 9 and only slightly larger. So far, I love it.

Hello,

I've had my product over a month now.

THE GOOD:
The OS is 64bit Windows 7. Can't complain about that. I am happy with the size of the laptop and screen resolution. I find this has respectable battery life. The weight is quite comfortable for me. I have gone for at 2 hours with moderate and peaked down at my battery display at the halfway mark or a little less. I would risk going to a coffee shop without my charger on this laptop. This laptop does not burn my lap. I don't know if it is because the battery keeps it from laying flat. This a complaint for some people but I find that I like this. This unit has an HDMI which I am ecstatic about. It means I can connect it to HD TVs on my travels. So far I have tested it with 720p content to my satisfaction. I've read reviews where it is said to work well at 1080p with some tweaking.

MAJOR REASON TO CONSIDER NOT BUYING:
If you intend to use the built in touch bad a lot you may be in... Read more
