Review of Dell inspiron 15

  I've had my Dell 1525 for 15 months. If you have one, keep the lid open, don't open and close it. The hinges are junk. Mine are bad now and Dell won't do anything because I'm three months out of warranty. This is a problem with this model. Google hinge problem on dell 1525 and see the problems. To bad, it has tainted the image I had of them.

  I'm currently using the Dell Inspiron 15. Frankly speaking, it's a decent laptop, but not for a gamer like you said. Fortunately enough, I'm not a hardcore gamer. technology bookmarking

  My Dell Inspiron 1525s' LCD hinges started coming apart about 3 months after I got it, and 6 months in one of them has broken and now I can't shut the laptop. Don't know how much it will cost to get fixed!

  this laptop overheats and switches itself off. This is very annoying and is a recognised problem. Search for dell inspiron overheating on wikipedia for more info http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dell_Inspiron#Overheating

  The new dell inspiron 15 can be configured with ati mobility radeon 4330 gpu. Does anybody know if its a 256mb ddr2 or ddr3 or a gddr3 memory?

  I'm looking into buying a 15 and I wondered how many RAM slots are available.

• By: LivingBarbie Jun 23, 2009 2:27 PM

  i just put a order in for a inspiron 15 i have to say i am a little worried from what everyone has been saying about the loud fan and its not a good gaming computer! :-(

  I am not having to replace the right hinge on mine. It costs about 400 dollars.. GJ Dell. Good job seriously.

  I have a dell inspiron 1525 NOT 15. I'm hoping that the 15 is better, and hoping that people talking about the hinges breaking is not for the 15. I've had this for about a year and I've experienced the hinges coming off. the lid can't close now. Vista is not a good opperating system to have. It is 80GB harddrive and when I got it 20GB was gone and we didn't add any programs. I don't know why, but that was what happened. The fan is loud and i cannot do hard word on the computer for more than a few hours before it shuts off due to overheating. i suggest a cooling pad for the 1525. everything else about this laptop is great, just we need a new one. the 15 seems to be better because it is cheaper than what we bought the 1525 for (around 550$) and it has 4x the hard drive capacity.

  The hinges on mine broke after a year they started getting loose and eventually broke on one side. Plus the mouse pad is located close to teh space bad and when typing I often accidently touch it and I guess the cursor jumps causing me to type in areas I didnt mean to. Very annoying took me about 3 months to be aware of not touching the pad.

  Just wondering if this would be a good purchase to use for school and other means like downloading, internet, etc? Thanks.

• By: Mike Jun 11, 2009 12:34 AM

  Performance is good on the 1525, but get ready to replace the hinges after about a year of service. LCD cover has completely cracked at the hinge area on one corner. The cover, hinges, and bezel are going to need replacing. Not sure how much this repair is going to set me back.

  Just ordered mine from Dell today, looking forward to getting it soon :)

  Who is the tuber that said you can't run Mac OS on anything but a Mac. How is it under that stone you live? A bit slimy maybe. Google hackintosh or hack book and you will see that the 1525 unit does quite nicely.

  I am proud to have one of your product.

  No you can't run Mac OS on anything but a mac.

  I have been a Dell user for 10 years. I own a XPS 210, a 1525 and I just ordered a Inspiron 15 to replace a Inspiron 1000 that is 5 years old and running strong (can't add more RAM). As far as I am concerned, it is hard to beat a Dell for all around reliability.

  i jsut bought mine yesterday, and the reviews look good so well see how this adds up! btw im gonna put a ATI x800 graphics card in it. will it void the warranty and would it then be good for gaming?

• By: Kaushal Sharma Mar 05, 2009 11:20 AM

  I have the same STREET model and i am quiet satisfy with the performance. I am proud to be a DELLian. I would like to know is Dell inspiron 1525 is compatible with MAC. is it ok to install it with Mac. instead of windows?

• By: Bjorn Jan 12, 2009 3:09 AM

  You've made an excellent choice. My wife got a 1525 almost precisely two months ago and it's a really good notebook. If I had to buy one for myself right now, I'd go for the exact same model. I got a dell Inspiron 1525 Battery from http://www.batterygoshop.co.uk/dell/inspiron-1525-battery.htm . It can last more than 3 hours.

  this is the best laptop ever, and will jaynes it isnt nearly loud enough to return it just because of the loud fan. you made a poor decision imo.

• By: Will Jaynes Aug 07, 2008 2:42 PM

  I had to return my 1525. I liked everything about it, except the fan was very noisy, and it ran incessantly. I found this problem reported often on the Dell forums, and around the net in general.
