Dell 14 plus, XPS and inspiron, such as the end of subbrans, between the first laptop to test the waters. Although more interesting XPS changes are still coming, Dell 14 plus came to switch to the shoes of old Inspiron plus laptops.

Dell 14 plus, it’s not what I will call a pretty laptop. But I don’t think it’s trying to be. Instead, it is trying to be in. Previously, this was the plastic, black bark. These days it means a silver chassis with as little distractions or ornaments as possible. Dell 14 plus succeeds to do it.

More importantly, the laptop is felt quite firm in the hands of the computer. The lid is completely zero, probably due to how close the hinge is. You can’t open with one finger, in fact, there is no lip on the lid for your finger. Although only 0.67 inch thick of the device is thicker, this lid is more thick than normal. Not thinly compared to a MacBook AirNo, but this price is quite thin to feel modern on the laptop. It also allows you to get enough space to squeeze in some legacy ports, including USB and HDMI. This is in addition to two USB-C port and headphones. My only complaint is the only side you can charge both USB-C port, port of both USB-C.

One of the things that protects Dell 14 from feeling like a more premium laptop. There are some thick plastic bezels and uses heavy fifty gloomy. When it helps to stink the glitter glitter, the screen looks cheap and more saturated. Since the screen itself is something firm, it is very bad. A surprisingly with the necessary colored coated is an IPS panel. According to my test, 332 nit will not turn off your socks, but it will not be obvious from experience.

I need to point out that Dell’s 2 in 1 model of 2 has offered a better screen option. If I do not use what I see, it is a bright mini-led screen.

Dell 14 plus has a keyboard and touchpad served. After receiving the unit, I was concerned about one side of the middle-level laptops, which are tend to compromise, a party of weave laptops. TouchPad is not perfect – it’s not as smooth enough to want the surface. But I am pleased to inform that this touchpad is sensitive and the click of the mechanism is not too high.

Dell 14 plus, there are only one processor options, Intel Core Ultra 7 256V. This is a modern, effective CPU of Intelin, which provides a solid jump in battery life over previous generations. I have tried this chip several times and Dell 14 plus only works well. Dell 14 plus a job to stay relatively cool and calm. It is not the type of laptop you purchased for heavy applications or games, to create school, office work or light content, Dell has 14 plus many muscles.
