User Reviews for Dell Inspiron 14 3421 Laptop (Core i3 3rd Gen/2 GB/500 GB/Windows 8) Laptop

I got this laptop with 4 GB Ram (upgraded from 2 to 4 GB) in Rs. 35,500. Overall I am satisfied with the performance of the laptop. Very few laptops in this range have got nvidia GPU. Cons: Has a very cheap look,touchpad seems little clumsy.

Light weight, Good battery backup but slower then Intel Dual core E5400 Overall a good lapy in this price range.

The laptop is very good in the first look...very light weight, with a graphic card and at just rs34000. but the as you switch on the pc, you will find it very slow. I think one should, prefer an i5 processor rather than an i3. i dont think the slow down was because of the RAM, as in the task manager, it shows that only 1.3-1.5 gb of ram is being utilised(out of 1.9 GB available). On the contrary, the cpu usage was touching 100% usage, time and time again. Although it is having 1 gb graphic card, i dont expect it to play a little heavier graphic games(although i havent tried it yet)

I purchased this from one leading store in Mumbai. I start this laptop with messages like 'Not Responding', 'Restore the session' and end the session using task manager. It cannot even shut down on its own :-). Absolutely ridiculous product. After spending INR 35000 I got this white elephant. I had purchased Samsung AV509 from Flipkart last year, what an amazing product from a company not having experience in computing. This simple basic Samsung laptops handles basic simulations faster than Dell. It also claims to be good at gaming, I will advise Dell to first concentrate on basic multitasking :-). This laptop hangs even when I am dealing with two MS Word documents forget about multitasking. It takes ages to just flick between screens. And that MacAfee antivirus, who is dell taking for a big ride, I am trying to uninstall this but I am not being allowed to do it. This is a perfect example of planned Obsolescence. Needless to say, I will not recommend this to anyone.

My younger brother wanted a new laptop hence after some research we decided to order this laptop. We got the laptop 3 months ago. It has been working well since then without any issues. According to my brother, it's most distinguished feature is that it came with Windows 8, due to which his classmates rarely borrow his laptop. LOL.
