5.0 out of 5 stars Great computer for what I need.
Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2024
The computer I replaced was 14 years old and was top of the line at the time. The computer was getting slow and took almost 20 minutes to be usable after start up. My new Dell is up and running in less than two minutes and all of the apps run glitch free and much faster than before. I use the computer mostly for photo editing and it has plenty of memory to handle the many layers that some images use. The price of $1,000 was very reasonable for what I needed. It was a huge upgrade from my previous computer at a very good price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very solid non-gaming computer!
Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2024
We got this for my Aunt for Christmas. This computer is a LOT of computer for the price. A top of the line i7 processor, Fast SSD drive, 16Gb of RAM and plenty of connections, it is a very high performance computer for under $999 at this point and time. The only thing it lacks is a high end graphics card for 3d gaming, which my Aunt did not need. Honestly, this was more computer than she needed, but we wanted to give her a premier experience and also wanted to keep her from having to update any time soon. She had her last computer for over 10 years, so this one should last her nearly that long as well, based on its current specs and her use-case.

For anything but high-intensive graphics processing, this is pretty much as much computer as most people ever need for stuff like internet surfing, e-mail, word processing and videos and such. It’s good quality, and it is working great. We paired it with a nice 27 inch Samsung monitor and it is a beast. It also comes with a mouse and a chicklet keyboard, which is up to you to keep or change. But they are perfectly functional and work fine unless you need something more.

A solid five stars for what it is!

4.0 out of 5 stars It seems to be ok
Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2024
I am just in the process of setting up the computer. Haven't managed to transfer data yet. Dell Migrate is a joke. It transferred a small amount of data and then failed. Time after time. It started off ok, transferred settings and started on data. It got to 3% transferred and froze. Tried restarting it several times and it failed every time. So now I'm looking at other ways to transfer a large amount of data and files. I hope this isn't indicative of the quality of the computer.

My 9 year old DELL windows 10 is getting on it's last legs So I decided to buy a new Dell with Windows 11 pro and Intel13th gen I7 So far I really like it and it's fast Lots of new features and locations for your stuff Not that crazy about One Drive running in the background, but I can pause it at anytime, or go to start up items and just turn it off if I need more internet speed 1 TB of cloud storage included with Microsoft 365 personal which anyway had before Very snappy performance compared to my older Dell A couple hundred more and I would have 2 SSDs but that's OK Mine has 2 TB's of storage One is SS and the other a Seagate 7200rpm which is considered better than 5400rpm Good WiFi too as it easily detected and connected with my old HP wifi printer and it prints!! Plenty of USB ports and one USB 3.0 type C port It also has SD card reader, audio in and headphone out Plug and play works great for my USB microphone and USB webcams I downloaded Audacity with no problem and it works fantastic with the microphone or with any another source of input you choose It has the CD player/burner tray A must have for me This Dell 3020 boots up fast and runs quiet and easy to set up, a child could do it Don't forget to register your PC and download the Dell Support Assist app The disc player only plays music CD's and files for data but for watching DVD movies You must download Microsoft Media Player or go to SourceForge or other sites that offer VLC player VLC is a free and open source cross-platform multimedia player and framework that plays most multimedia files as well as DVDs, Audio CDs, VCDs for Windows and for playing DVD movies I've downloaded VLC player many times on other machines and It works very good Very satisfied so far with my new Dell 3020 machine I still trust Dell for my computer needs Microsoft? not so much

1.0 out of 5 stars No Optical Drive
Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2024
Don't buy this computer. It is falsely advertised as having an optical drive (DVD read/write). It does not.

If I could rate this purchase a zero I would. If I haven't already gone through the motions of setting it up I would return it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mostly great as to HW; SW another story
Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2024
Hardware checked out fine. SSD PLUS a spinning HDD is a real plus for backup purposes. Windows Media Player did not work with the DVD-RW; I had to download a third-party DVD-RW. Getting rid of MS OneDrive was like trying to find / kill the very last cockroach on earth, but eventually successful. Adding the new machine to MS-Office 365 subscription went flawlessly. Adding Norton products not so much, eventually requiring Norton's (excellent) online chat support to resolve.

All settled in now; quite happy with the final result.
