Purpose and audience
The Dell Inspiron 3520 is a 15.6 inch laptop built for home and office users who need a responsive Windows 11 Home machine with a large solid-state drive. Its 11th Gen Intel Core i5 processor and 16 GB of DDR4 memory handle everyday multitasking, video calls and document work without friction.
Sustained workload behaviour
The four-core i5-1135G7 runs at a base 2.40 GHz and can reach 4.2 GHz under load, while the integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics share system memory. The 41 Whr three-cell battery and 65 W power supply support typical business hours, though continuous heavy compute will draw the charge down faster than light use.
Build, connectivity and daily use
The carbon-black chassis measures 14.11 x 9.27 x 0.74 inches and weighs 3.6 lb, making it straightforward to carry between desks. A 120 Hz IPS panel at 1920 x 1080 reduces motion blur when scrolling. Ports include one USB 2.0, HDMI, an SD card reader and a headset jack, while 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 handle wireless peripherals and network access.
