  • Our take on the Dell Inspiron 15 3520 15.6"

    The Dell Inspiron 15 3520 is a 15.6-inch budget laptop with a 1920x1080 screen, an Intel Core i3 processor, 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD, running Windows 11 Pro. It stands out for the large SSD and RAM count at this tier, plus a full number pad and a webcam. Against rivals it trades newer wireless and a sturdier chassis for more memory and storage than most budget 15-inch laptops offer.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Dell Inspiron 15 3520 good for everyday use?
    Yes for web browsing, email, documents and video. The Core i3 and 16 GB RAM handle light multitasking, but it is not suited to gaming or heavy editing.
    Can the RAM and storage be upgraded?
    The 1 TB SSD can be swapped for a larger drive, and the RAM is socketed on most Inspiron 15 3520 configurations, so it can be upgraded.
    Does it have a number pad and webcam?
    Yes. The keyboard includes a full number pad, and there is a built-in webcam for video calls.
    What ports does it have?
    It includes USB-A and USB-C ports, HDMI and a headphone jack, enough for a monitor, mouse and external drive.
    Does it come with Windows 11 Pro?
    Yes, Windows 11 Pro is preinstalled, which adds BitLocker and remote desktop over the Home edition.
    Is this laptop good value for a Core i3?
    The 1 TB SSD and 16 GB RAM add real value over base budget laptops, but Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2 are dated. Compare it with rivals that offer Wi-Fi 6 or a newer processor before deciding.
    Where is the Dell Inspiron 15 3520 15.6" cheapest?
    At Best Buy, for $969.00, as of our latest check.
