The Dell 15 Laptop with i5, 16GB RAM is on sale right now for $699.99, which is $120 off the usual price. If you need a solid all‑around laptop for work, school, or home, this deal makes sense. You get a 13th Gen Intel Core i5-1334U processor with 10 cores and speeds up to 4.60 GHz, so you can run a bunch of browser tabs, office apps, and video calls without the system feeling slow. With Windows 11 Pro, this is ready for work use, and the 16GB of DDR4 memory means you can multitask without running out of RAM all the time. For the price, that mix of a recent Intel chip plus 16GB RAM is pretty strong if you want something that will feel current for a few years.
You also get a 15.6-inch full HD display that runs at 120Hz, which is not something you see on many laptops in this price range. The higher refresh rate makes scrolling, moving windows, and watching videos look smoother, and the anti-glare coating helps if you work near windows or under bright lights. The Intel UHD Graphics is fine for normal day-to-day use: streaming, web apps, office work, light photo edits, and casual games. Storage is handled by a 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe solid state drive, which should give you quick boot times and fast file loading, and 512GB is enough for a good stack of documents, apps, and some media without needing an external drive right away.
For ports, this Dell 15 Laptop with i5, 16GB RAM covers the basics you are likely to need. You get two USB-A ports (one USB 3.2 Gen 1 and one USB 2.0), a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C data port on the plastic model, HDMI 1.4 for plugging into a monitor or TV, a universal audio jack for your headset, and a power port. There is also an SD card slot, which is handy if you shoot photos or video and want to move files over without a separate reader. Wireless is handled by a Realtek Wi‑Fi 6 card with Bluetooth, so your connection should be stronger and more stable than older Wi‑Fi 5 systems, and pairing headphones or a mouse is simple. The 3‑cell 41WHr battery and 65W AC adapter are pretty standard, and the weight around 4.2 pounds is normal for a 15‑inch laptop you move between rooms or carry in a backpack.
You get some extras that help with day-to-day use too. There is a 720p HD web camera with a built‑in mic on the plastic chassis, or a 1080p camera with dual mics if you pick the aluminum upsell, so your video calls will be clear enough for work or classes. The two tuned speakers are fine for streaming shows or music without grabbing headphones every time. You also get a 1‑year McAfee Business Protection plan for basic security, plus basic onsite hardware support after remote diagnosis for 12 months, which gives you some peace of mind if something goes wrong. The carbon black plastic case keeps the price down, and you still get a precision touchpad for smoother scrolling and gestures, though the keyboard is non‑backlit, so keep that in mind if you type in low light. For $699.99, with $120 in savings, this is a good pick if you want a straightforward 15‑inch Windows laptop that handles work, school, and home tasks without feeling slow.
