We have had this for 3 weeks now and put maybe 50 hours on it and we have been really happy with this Dell 27" Core i5. This replaced 7 year old Intel Corei5 touchscreen HP Envy AIO that the screen had developed random "ghost touch" and basically made it unusable. For that reason we decided we didn't want to mess with touchscreen because we really never used it on an AIO...the mouse is right there so it was a bit redundant.
This computer was easy to set up. It did transfer all of our files since we had Windows on both and it synched between the old computers last backup and the new computer. It did not transfer all our programs though since the old one was Windows 10 and some of the programs were not compatible with Windows 11. It has not been a big deal though since you can see the icons for the programs and it prompts you to download the new version where applicable.
We were concerned about performance since I use a 3D printer and prep files, and I also do some image and light video editing. I have had several of these programs open at once and have had no slowdowns and no issues with any programs crashing. The solid state drive makes programs fast to open and it comes out of sleep mode quickly as well
The screen is huge and makes browsing so much easier, and the image editing more precise.
Audio is typical for an All-in-one, fine for sitting at the desk but not great as a room sound system. BUT it has bluetooth so if this is a concern just grab an affordable speaker and pair it. I just went into windows search bar typed speaker, selected "Choose your sound output device" selected "pair another speaker" and bam, it plays audio from a bluetooth speaker like Sonos or a portable speaker.
One other cool built in feature, the Dell mouse can have the buttons re-assignable. So very easily I was able to open that preloaded program, and re-assign the wheel mouse press function to pull up the program menu from the desktop, or in Chrome it takes me to the search bar and opens a typing cursor. Pretty cool.
So, for the money this has been an excellent computer, I am very happy with the purchase.
