Is the Dell LDC15250 good for gaming?

Only for light or older titles. It uses Intel UHD integrated graphics, so modern games will run at low settings and frame rates. A laptop with a dedicated GPU is the better choice for gaming.

Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?

The 512 GB SSD can usually be swapped for a larger M.2 drive. The 16 GB of DDR5 memory is soldered on most builds of this model, so buy the capacity you need up front.

Is the screen bright enough for outdoor use?

Not really. At 220 nits it is dim in direct sunlight and struggles in bright rooms. It is best used indoors or in shade.

Does it have a backlit keyboard and a numpad?

Yes, the keyboard is backlit. This 15.6-inch layout includes a numeric keypad, which helps with spreadsheets and data entry.

What ports does it have?

It has one USB-C 3.2 Gen 1, three USB-A ports (one 2.0, two 3.2 Gen 1), HDMI 1.4, a headphone/microphone jack and an SD card reader.

Is it good for video calls and online classes?

It handles Zoom, Teams and browser-based classes well, and the touchscreen helps with notes. The 720p webcam is mediocre, so an external camera improves image quality.
