    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, once you dial in some settings
    Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024
    I bought this as a business laptop (which is exactly what it is), and it delivers in spades. The chassis may be plastic, but the soft-touch and nearly silent, back-lit keyboard gives this piece a nice premium feel. The screen is plenty bright and very vibrant, with bright, sharp colors, and the 16" screen is a noticeable upgrade from the basic 15.6", without feeling overly huge, like a 17" does to me. The trackpad is decent, but not my thing, so I use a mouse.
    The 13th Gen i7 moves everything along snappily and with no frustrating "oh, this thing is slow" regrets. It's far from slow, and accommodates a good bit of multi-tasking while still feeling crisp and unburdened, even with only 16GB of DDR5. It also is great for streaming video, and I've done it easily while working in 2 or 3 other open apps with no lag, no sweat.
    The only thing is that it should be obvious this is not a gaming laptop. So, without a discrete GPU, why does Dell think this can handle a 2.5K resolution at 120Hz (which was the default)? It can, as far as surfing the web maybe, but try anything that even remotely calls for GPU power and it's chop-chop city. Even the see-sawing text screen saver struggled at this setting. So, a bit of advice, drop your refresh rate down to 60Hz and you'll be good to go.
    TLDR; it's a business laptop, not a gaming rig...it's a web-surfing, spreadsheet, business software solution kind of piece...it's for video streaming, not graphical editing or creating...Buy it for what it is and it's a 5/5 in my book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A no fuss really good laptop.
    Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2024
    If you don't mind a no OLED screen and mediocre webcam, this is a stupendous laptop. Plenty of power, a truly marvelous keyboard and great sounding speakers. Trackpad is small...as it should be, no need for a huge One. The screen is very fast and colorful. I have tested this laptop with Windows 11 and Linux, and everything works as it should. Even the fingerprint reader works amazing in both distros I tried: Mint and Fedora. You would have to pry this thing from my cold, dead hands!

    Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2025
    The device offers fast performance and an excellent screen, among other features. However, I find the positioning of the female Type-C power port to be inconvenient. It's located near the lower-left corner, which is quite close to the user. In my opinion, it would be better placed in the upper-left corner, farther from the user. I understand that due to the way the screen opens, placing it at the back isn't an option.

    My husband got me this. It was the best Christmas present ever I do everything on it. It even has gaming, although I don’t game but good for business and work and school.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Dell Inspiron 7640
    Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2025
    I am more than thrilled with this laptop purchase. My previous Dell laptop was almost 10 years old, and I had started to run into issues (especially when doing things on the web). The new laptop boots up in under 15 seconds and the speed (both when I'm online and offline) is fantastic. The extra screen size (my old laptop had a 15-inch display, and this laptop has a 16-inch display with virtually the same footprint). The only thing I noted (which isn't an issue for me but might be for someone else) is that Dell chose to make the lightning bolt port the place where you put the power cord. Since I don't need access to a lightning bolt port on my laptop, it's not a problem.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Excessive fan noise!!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2025
    This laptops fan is running constantly without stopping. In addition to that it is LOUD!!!! I can't overstate it enough. It's like sitting at the airport next to a jet engine. I've been looking for solutions online and nothing is helpful.

    In addition to the excessive noise, be aware of the lack of inputs. It only has 1 usb-c which is required for the power cord. So unless you have a compatible docking station that does power as well, you are out of luck.

    Really regretting this purchase. Hope this review saves someone else the headache.
