A touchscreen alongside Intel’s latest Haswell CPUs should boost the appeal of Dell’s refreshed Inspiron 15R. Outstanding battery runtimes and low emissions speak for the 15-incher. But can that compensate for the omitted dedicated graphics card? For the original German review, see here. The Inspiron 15R belongs to the absolute evergreens in Dell’s product line. The laptop has been refreshed and updated to the current state-of-the-art several times since we reviewed the multimedia laptop for the first time in 2010. The latest update includes Intel’s new Haswell generation and promises more power as well as longer battery runtimes. Only the Core i5-4200U and Core i7-4500U are currently available. Both are particularly energy-efficient ULV processors that feature an integrated graphics unit dubbed HD Graphics 4400. The options might be extended by a Core i3-4010U in the intermediate term and is already listed in the technical documents. 8 GB of DDR3 memory, a 1000 GB hard drive and a 15.6-inch WXGA screen complete our review sample. Dell also treats the laptop to a touchscreen in order to make using the preinstalled Windows 8 64-bit version even more instinctive. This configuration of the laptop is available for currently 739 Euros plus 29 Euros (~$979 plus ~$38) for shipping. Should that be too expensive, buyers might consider looking at the precursorcurrently on sale. It not only includes 4 GB of RAM and the same hard drive capacity, but also a virtually just as fast Core i5-3337U and a dedicated Radeon HD 8730M. Other alternatives would be laptops from the competition, such as Lenovo’s IdeaPad U510 or Asus’ VivoBook S551LB. Case Blend of plastic and aluminum materials A ULV CPU and integrated graphics – this should easily make a compact chassis possible. However, Dell has adopted the fairly bulky casing without evident changes. This involves both advantages and disadvantages. The elegant, timeless design is still appealing in terms of looks. Curved forms and the black-silver finish convey an equally discreet and high-quality impression. As in the past, it is also still possible to order a differently colored underside for the new Inspiron 15R. However, only the silver version is currently available in the configurator. The massive build mentioned above results in a weight of 2.3 kilograms and a thickness of approximately 3.4 centimeters. Comparably swift ultrabooks usually only have a height of about 20 millimeters. However, this is partly due to the downward protruding battery and the somewhat thicker touchscreen in the Inspiron 15R. The casing has to be praised for its meticulous rigidness. The blend of aluminum and plastic materials prove to be exceptionally resistant so that almost brute force is needed to dent the surface. The screen is virtually on a par with that and also excels with its stiffness. Two accurately-running, very tightly-pulled hingeshave a firm grip on the lid although vibrations can cause it to wobble slightly. In the end, only a few minor manufacturing flaws prevent the Inspiron from reaching a high score. Some gaps could be a bit narrower, but we do not have much to criticize oth
