This is a slim, high-resolution Dell Inspiron from the 11th-generation Intel era, aimed squarely at everyday productivity, study, and light creative work. With a sharp 2560 × 1600 display and Intel Iris Xe graphics, it offers a noticeable step up from entry-level laptops while staying efficient and quiet in day-to-day use.
It’s well suited to home working, university study, office tasks, and media consumption, particularly if you value screen quality and portability over raw gaming performance.

Condition & refurbishment
This laptop has been professionally refurbished, fully tested, and supplied ready to use.
There are general cosmetic signs of use, including scratches and scuffs on the top and bottom casing. A small chip on the top lid has been repaired as part of our refurbishment process. There are also light pressure marks on the screen from contact with the keyboard, which are not noticeable during normal use.
The battery currently reports approximately 78% health, meaning it is best suited for use near mains power or for shorter portable sessions. It will need to be replaced eventually, but we consider anything over 76% to be fully usable and wasteful to replace this early.
Please note: this is a non-touchscreen model.
