Editorial note

The Dell Inspiron 3148 stands out with its 2-in-1 hybrid design, offering appreciated flexibility for easily switching between laptop mode and tablet mode. This model is particularly suitable for users seeking a versatile solution for various situations, whether for work or entertainment. Additionally, its 11.6-inch touchscreen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels ensures an immersive visual experience, while the built-in stereo audio system provides good sound quality for videos and music. Battery life is another strong point, reaching up to 11 hours, allowing for extended use without worrying about frequent recharging. However, it is important to note that the maximum internal memory of 4 GB may be insufficient for users with high multitasking needs or running heavy applications. Regarding performance, the Intel® Core™ i3 4th generation processor offers sufficient efficiency for daily tasks but may seem slow for more demanding applications or recent games. Furthermore, the lack of an Ethernet port limits wired connectivity options, which could be problematic in environments where Wi-Fi connectivity is unstable. Finally, although the 500 GB hard drive is adequate for storage, its rotational speed of 5400 RPM may lead to longer loading times compared to faster hard drives or SSDs. Weighing 1410 g, portability may also be less convenient for those looking for an ultra-light laptop. Overall, the Dell Inspiron 3148 offers good value for money for users seeking a versatile device, despite some limitations in performance and connectivity.
