4.0 out of 5 starsGreat! Would buy again If I was a medium strenght gamer! (But can't seem to kill this laptop with physical errors)

I'm actually writing this review on this very same laptop. It works great and hasn't given me any serious malfunctions or hardware issues. I changed out the 8gig for 16 which does seem to be helping quite a lot! The back-lit keyboard is now something I look for with most computers I look at. The case it comes in is seemingly indestructible and the components inside are amazingly tough. I've honestly dropped it a few times like most laptop users and the 5ft drop it encountered it only got a piece of the interchangeable case was chipped. No screen damage or anything!I have had it overheat due to me using it on my lap or bed constantly but I can just re-start it instantly and have no issues! The BIOS is easy to navigate too and is very user friendly I honestly just say it's great for the price, I'm just wishing I got a desktop with it. The Processor does seem a bit clunky honestly and does freeze and lag pretty hard under quite some stress. I'm a gamer so I expect this I'm just bummed out that you cant modify it too much without being a computer wiz and that why I'm giving it 4 starts instead of 5, the ram is easy to upgrade and I'm sure the HDD would be too. But the Motherboard is soldered and everything else seems like you would have to go to an extensive amount of money and work to modify it to get it somewhat up to par with a desktop that costs maybe about the same if not cheaper?

P.S. For all those gamers out there it plays Fallout 3 just fine and battlefield just fine as well. I play Darksouls and GTA V constantlywithout too many problems besides it overheating once in awhile. HOWEVER it absolutely refuses to play newer games like Fallout 4 even on bare minimum settings which is a shame because you just cant upgrade the processor or the graphics card easily.

3.0 out of 5 starsWell build except for the operating system

Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2013

The laptop is well build and easy to unpack and get started. The keys light up nicely and the screen is bright and contrast is good. The ports are in good locations around the sides of the laptop.
Windows 8 is a disappointment. The computer isn't a touch screen so Microsoft shouldn't force touchscreen enabled apps on you. Any installed app doesn't provide the functionality the Windows version provides you. I'm left with a feeling like I'm operation my Phone on a computer, that's not why I got a computer. I need it to be better and quicker than my phone.
We've used the computer now for a year and all of the issues we've had with it originate from the Software. Currently I need to take it into a Windows shop. Windows 8 isn't able to update to 8.1 because it isn't able to connect to the Windows Servers.

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent Machine, base processor speed is 2.2GHz not 2.5GHz

Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is an excellent Machine, very fast, with Turbo Booster 2.0 auto manage processor speed. I can run multiple tasks without delays excecuting them.
There is a model very similar to this one and almost 200.00 $USD ($736.00)cheaper, for less video and plastic back plate instead of aluminium, and keyboard backlit but more Hard Disk Drive, and 3 pounds less in weight which is very good if you carry your laptop with you. At first I thought I would have bought that one if was listed but now, after using this one I am very happy about this purchase.
No regret so far only:
1-This is advertised as 2.5 GHz, but base processor speed is 2.2GHz and I have seen mine at 2.9GHz with Turbo Booster Monitor.
2-Little heavy, 9 pounds (not really a problem).
3-Touch pad is very sensible but you can be solved with a mouse or some adjusting (not an issue).
4-I did not like, I saw this machine in dell.com website at a higher Price, and came here in blackfriday weekend, I though I bought it in a special Price, but now is lower. There was a psicological trick used to buy it in a hurry and two weeks later was a little cheaper. Not enough for a return but, I feel blackfriday was a trick.

Dell is a very good Brand and the best in Warranty service in my country, that was a very important point in my purchase.
This computer moves very fast, and multitask without delay.

My rate is 4.8 from 5.
Good Luck!!

Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2013

First time buying a laptop and It's been great since I got it a month ago!While a month isn't long it has preformed wonderfully so far.The screen is bigger than I thought but not so big that it's too much to carry.

pros:
-Screen and resolution
-Fan (only gets warm after hours of gaming, at least 3 hours)
-mouse pad very responsive
-Performance fast and as expected
-4 USB slots
-NO UNEXPECTED SUPRISES (no shockers you wish you knew beforehand, so relieving)

cons:
-I wish there was a keypad.I knew there wasn't one beforehand but It looks like if they moved the keyboard a little and maybe put a keypad below it would fit.There is room and that would be a huge plus.
-CD drive is on the side right in a place were every time I grab the laptop on the side I'm afraid I might have messed up the cd drive a little.maybe if they moved it a little or replaced it with a insert drive instead of one that pops out, that would solve it.
-Keypad feels a little fragile, but maybe I type hard.Not a big thing and I hope it's normal.

Windows 8 is a little confusing and different at first, but once you get to know it and how to navigate the quick key it's actually really nice.I wish though that they had more of a tutorial at the beginning than it did.It wasn't much.And I know you can download more help in their apps, you have to stumble your way there.Besides that though, great.Now they just need more apps.

Overall this a fantastic laptop that is worth the price and just what you expect.I will update this as time goes on.
