DISPLAY OVERVIEW

Resolution: The most commonly used across the platform and most power-efficient Full HD (1920 x 1080) display. 15.6 inch, 16:9 aspect ratio, 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution 141 PPI, WLED screen. Featuring Dell Cinema, the screen presents superior views and consistent colors from every angle.

Contrast: Dell Inspiron 15 3511 screen has a remarkable 1142:1 contrast rate matching design-grade monitors. The average DeltaE and Grayscale values are slightly elevated with out-of-the-box configuration which the X-Rite colorimeter is able to stabilize by a whopping 86% and 67%, ΔE Color 5.1 (calibrated: 0.7), Grayscale 6.34 (calibrated 2.08), Black Level 0.21. Nonetheless, the poor color reproduction mentioned below means that deltaE will inevitably increase significantly at higher saturation levels.

Colour Gamut: Color space is limited to just 60 percent of sRGB compared to >90 percent on pricier alternatives like the XPS 15. The narrow gamut is to be expected on budget laptops such as this Inspiron 15.

Screen Brightness: 250-nit luminance screen is bright enough for outdoors or bright environments indoors while the full matte coating removes all glares and reflections to further help in bright indoors and outdoors while keeping the stunning lossless color quality.

Surface: Hard coating (3H) full Matte-finish screen offers a better viewing experience by completely eliminating all reflections.

Brightness distribution: 15.6-inch panel offers seamless brightness distribution rate across the panel measured at 87%. The screen brightness distribution rate tells you how seamlessly brightness spread across the entire screen. It is measured using a luminance meter by checking the intensity of light emitted by an LCD area in six different blocks.

IPS Technology: IPS panels display consistent, accurate color from all viewing angles and do not lighten or show tailing when touched that is important for touch-screen devices, which means you can see vibrant colors and consistent images across a wide viewing angle from the side, above, below – almost any perspective.

MEMORY
The starter configuration comes with 8GB DDR4 RAM memory, alternatively, the user can opt-in for a higher configuration that has 16GB which is achieved with a dual design memory slot. The memory can run via Dual-channel and supports a maximum of 3200 Mhz speed of non-ECC type. Conventionally memory can be user upgraded on-demand. More memory means larger bandwidth and faster load times allowing you to switch between multiple running programs and/or under a heavy load, simultaneously smoothly without a stutter.

GRAPHICS
The Intel® UHD® Xe G4 is an integrated Processor Graphics that is manufactured on the same package or die as the central processing unit (CPU). The XE G4 graphics are made on the Gen12 Xe architecture while SoCs are manufactured on 10nm+ SuperFin Process Node at intel. The GPU core operates at 400 – 1250 MHz frequency and has 48 execution units Memory clock speed is 3200 Mhz at 128 Bit Bus width. Intel specifies that GPU is operating at 15 Watts TDP. Compared to dedicated cards, the gaming performance is similar to the GeForce MX350 and twice as fast compared to the older integrated graphics.

STORAGE
The system integrates up to PCI Express® Gen 3.0 ×4 NVM Express™ storage controller enabling interface speeds of up to 32 Gbps. The starter configuration comes with 256GB M.2 (2230) form factor PCIe® 3.0 ×4 NVMe™ 3D NAND architecture TLC Flash Memory Technology Solid State Drive that is four times faster than a standard SSD. The system has two storage ports designed to hold (2x) M.2 2280 or 2230 form factor type storage drives, three of the ports support up to PCI-Express 3.0 x4 expansion bus, however, all of the ports are backward-compatible supporting previous expansion bus storages with B+M key sockets. The storage can be user upgraded up to 2TB.

PROCESSOR
Released in September 2020 and based on Tiger Lake-U architecture the Intel Core i3-1115G4 is a power-efficient dual-core SoC for notebooks and Ultrabooks with 2 Cores, 4 threads, and a fast 6 MB memory cache. The base core operating frequency is 3.0 GHz and boost to 4.1 GHz on demand. With Hyper-Threading Processor is able to execute up to four threads simultaneously helping a CPU to prioritize light and heavy tasks in parallel, completing tasks sooner. The chip is manufactured in a 10nm+ process and runs at 12 Watt base TDP but can reach 28 Watt based on performance load.
