You"ll be surprised by what you can get for $199 these days. Take the candy-colored tcncongdoan.edu.vn Inspiron 11 3000, an 11-inch notebook with epic battery life và solid audio. The display is on the dim side, but overall, this tcncongdoan.edu.vn is a great choice for a secondary machine or your kid"s first PC.


Design: Fun colors

tcncongdoan.edu.vn makes the plastic Inspiron 11 3000 in kid-friendly red, white & blue designs. We tested the former, which is a shade that reminds me of a kid"s race-car bed.


The notebook"s glossy lid attracts as many eyes as fingerprints (tons) with a matte, off-tone tcncongdoan.edu.vn hình ảnh in the center of its lid. Inside, the power button is located near the top-right corner of a recessed full-size keyboard.


Weighing 2.4 pounds và measuring 0.8 inches thick, the Inspiron 11 is lighter & thinner than the Acer Chromebook 11 N7 (2.8 pounds, 0.9 inches), but thicker than the Lenovo Ideapad 110S (2.4 pounds, 0.7 inches).



tcncongdoan.edu.vn placed the Inspiron 11"s SD card reader và its ports for power, USB 3.0 và HDMI on the left side. Its USB 2.0 port, tai nghe jack & Noble security lock slot are on the right.

Display: Max brightness required

The Inspiron 11"s display gets the job done, but it isn"t great for entertainment. When watching The Defenders trailer on the notebook, I noted that Luke Cage"s wooden headboard looked too dark & Danny Rand"s iron fist rendered with too much orange. While we"re not surprised lớn see a 1366 x 768-pixel panel in a $200 laptop, it"s another reminder of "you get what you pay for." On the other hand, the screen was good enough for me to lớn read web pages và write in Google Docs.



According to our colorimeter, the Inspiron 11 produces only 67 percent of the s
RGB spectrum. That"s close to the marks from the Ideapad 110S (70 percent) and the Chromebook 11 (72 percent).

The Inspiron 11 is definitely not a máy tính xách tay you"ll use outdoors. The panel emits only up khổng lồ 196 nits of brightness. That"s dimmer than the Ideapad 110S (213 nits), the Chromebook 11 (235 nits) and the 291-nit category average. Although it was bright enough for me lớn read text and write on it, its colors darkened significantly when I viewed the screen from đôi mươi degrees to the left or right.

Keyboard & Touchpad: Surprisingly OK

The Inspiron 11"s keyboard isn"t perfect, but it does enable solid typing. When I took it out for a thử nghiệm on the 10fastfingers.com typing test, I click-clacked my way to lớn 71 words per minute, which is below my 80-wpm average. Although its keys require an acceptable amount of actuation force (74 grams; we want at least 60 g), they"re a little too shallow, with only 1 millimeter of travel (we look for at least 1.5 mm). While I wish it were deeper, I can appreciate that the deck doesn"t flex -- a problem that plagued the Ideapad 110S.



The Inspiron 11"s 3.9 x 2.1-inch buttonless touchpad accurately tracked my input & recognized three-finger Windows 10 ứng dụng navigation gestures. While it felt stiff-to-the-click at first, my fingers soon accepted how much force it took to depress.

It turns out, $200 laptops can sound pretty great.

Audio: More than I expected at this price

I knew $200 headphones sounded good, but it turns out that $200 laptops can sound pretty great, too. The Inspiron 11 filled our large conference room with a strong rendition of Fall Out Boy"s "Young and Menace," that featured accurate bass, clear vocals and sweet synths.

I recommend you keep the preloaded tcncongdoan.edu.vn Audio utility"s default presets (speaker enhancement on, Maxx
Sense preset) lớn hear the best audio from the budget machine.

I hope you lượt thích doing one thing at a time, as the Celeron N3060 CPU & 2GB of RAM in the Inspiron 11 does not enable good multitasking.

Performance

I hope you like doing one thing at a time, as the Celeron N3060 CPU & 2GB of RAM in the Inspiron 11 bởi not enable good multitasking. I caught the machine slowing down after trying to open a second tab in Chrome while a You
Tube
đoạn phim played in the first one. Without streaming video, it took five simultaneous tabs to make the Inspiron 11 stutter.

The Inspiron 11 earned a low 1,813 on the Geekbench 4 general performance benchmark, which is close to the 1,847 earned by the Ideapad 110S (which features the same CPU và RAM).

The Inspiron 11"s Jet
Stream score of 49.4 (bigger scores are better) is similar khổng lồ the 49 from the Chromebook 11 (Celeron N3060, 4GB of RAM) but lower than the 57.2 from the Ideapad 110S.

The 32GB e
MMC hard drive in the Inspiron 11 needed 1 minute to lớn duplicate 4.97GB of multimedia files, for a speed of 84.82 MBps. That"s slightly faster than the 73.75 MBps e
MMC drive in the Ideapad 110S.



The Inspiron 11"s time of 13 minutes & 14 seconds on the Open
Office macro thử nghiệm (matching 20,000 names to addresses) is a bit faster than the 13:23 mark from the Ideapad 110S.

We hope you lượt thích Windows Photos and Candy Crush Soda Saga. The Inspiron 11 enables only minor image editing or gaming, as it earned a superlow 13,297 on the Ice Storm Unlimited graphics test. That"s lower than the 19,265 from the Ideapad 110S.

At this price, it would be very hard to find another máy tính xách tay with this much battery life.

Battery Life

At this price, it would be very hard to lớn find a máy tính that offers longer battery life than the Inspiron 11. The notebook lasted 13 hours và 39 minutes on the laptop Mag Battery thử nghiệm (web browsing at 100 nits), which beats the runtimes of the Ideapad 110S (7:22) and the Chromebook 11 (10:38).

Webcam

As with most laptops we see these days, the Inspiron 11 packs a 0.9-megapixel webcam that"s barely suitable for Skype calls. So although I"m recognizable in the selfies I shot in our office, there"s a lot of visual noise on the wall behind me, my skin and my sweater. Further, the red wall has too much yellow in it, & I can see blotches of dark distortion in my green sweater.



Heat

This Inspiron 11 may come in a hot shade of red, but it stays cool during use. After we streamed 15 minutes of HD video clip on the notebook, our heat gun picked up temperatures on its touchpad (74 degrees Fahrenheit), G và H keys (84 degrees) & underside (87.5 degrees) that all fell below our 95-degree comfort threshold.


Software and Warranty

Yes, you can get a full-fledged Windows 10 machine for $199. Và although some people would argue that a similarly priced Chromebook can vì just as much as this sluggish PC, Chrome OS doesn"t have the full Microsoft Office suite, which schools often require.


The silver lining of the Inspiron 11"s paltry 32GB of storage is that it doesn"t offer enough space for tcncongdoan.edu.vn to load it with (much) bloatware. It does pack everything we expect lớn see in a tcncongdoan.edu.vn, including the company"s power Manager Lite battery settings utility & Support
Assist system info tool. You also get Candy Crush, Sling và Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition, which you"ll want khổng lồ delete to reclaim the notebook"s precious storage space.


The Inspiron 11 3000 comes with tcncongdoan.edu.vn"s standard one-year limited hardware warranty, where tcncongdoan.edu.vn pays for shipping & the customer supplies the box. Kiểm tra out how tcncongdoan.edu.vn did in our 2017 Best & Worst BrandsTech support Showdown rankings.

Configuration Options

The Inspiron 11 3000 comes in two configurations, và the company offers both in red, white & blue designs. The $199 entry-level mã sản phẩm we tested packs an hãng intel Celeron N3060 CPU, 2GB of RAM & a 32GB e
MMC hard drive. tcncongdoan.edu.vn also sells the notebook with 4GB of RAM for $249.


Bottom Line

We"re astonished khổng lồ see 13-plus hours of battery life from a $199 laptop, as well as audio that sounds this sweet. & while I don"t love the display, it"s acceptable at this price. If you can live within the limits of Chrome OS, an alternative would be the $229 Acer Chromebook 11 N7, which offers an excellent keyboard and similar performance. The Lenovo Ideapad 110S is currently on sale for $159, though it doesn"t last as long on a single charge. Overall, the tcncongdoan.edu.vn Inspiron 11 3000 is a smart choice for users with modest demands and tight budgets.
