User Reviews for Dell Inspiron 14 3421 Laptop (Core i5 3rd Gen/4 GB/500 GB/Windows 8) Laptop

This was a great buy as i was seeking to upgrade from my older laptop (compaq presario ; intel celeron) Pros 1. 14 inch model is the right size and weight if you want to carry it around a lot 2. Features - i5, 4GB RAM, 500GB memory and 1 GB graph are great features for everyday work and multitasking 3. Having a DVD drive can be useful.... even though its relevance might depend on your need 4. Good battery backup - get about 4hours of browsing and office related work 5. Overall nice firm build and non-glossy finish which looks really great. 6. Windows 8 - once you get used to it, you really dont need a touchscreen as many would suggest. I get around just as well with the touchpad! 7. Quiet fans! And heating up is not a major issue. 8. Of course, not to forget, an amazing delivery experience by flipkart!!! Cons 1. Lack of VGA port -. Of course, you do get converters for the same, though i havent tried them

Pros: 1. Sleek and lightweight. 2. Presence of two USB3 ports. 3. 1 GB graphics is good. 4. Black textured finish gives a nice look. 5. Good battery backup (around 4 hours) and less heating. Cons: 1. Tracking pad is less sensitive which has forced me to use a mouse. 2. Basic version of Win 8 lacking some important features like BitLocker, encryption. 3. Only 3 USB ports. Summing up all features, its a very good laptop in this range.

its not great laptop. speakers are below average and laptop gets hang even if you are not using any application. Battery takes lot of time to charge.. it takes more than 4 hours to full charge. only good point you have -- screen resolution is good and it does not get hot. overall i will not suggest for this.

Good Morning Flipkart!! I want thank you for the excellent service I received from you on purchasing various items i.e Laptop, External HDD, Mouse etc. It is been significant for genuine price, up-to date information and on-time delivery. These three main pillar of online business is perfectly maintained by you and your team. Your prices are at least three percent lower than your closest competitor's. When I deals in significant quantities, even a small price break can mean large savings."There is no substitute for low prices." We hope you will continue to offer savings on the commodities I need. Hats up. 'AWESOME!'

Purchased this model after a month long decision making process Got it for 40.3k from dell exclusive store. The laptop is really sleek and thin and pretty easy to carry. The surface texture is a bit different (neither glossy nor matty). It is pretty rough, but then as I get used to that rough surface, I am getting more comfortable. Specs are standard 3rd gen i5, 4GB RAM (planning to upgrade to 8 GB next week), 500 GB HDD, etc. 1GB Graphics is a bonus at this price for a 14 inch laptop. Note - This has 1 * 4 GB RAM stick and 1 slot is still available (as against information published on Flipkart page) Update: I have upgraded the RAM to 8GB few months back. The machine is extremely powerful and also after upgrading to Windows 8.1, it rocks.
