What is it?

A powerful feature rich laptop from Dell.

Good points?

The Dell Inspiron 15 5570 packs a lot of punch for its price tag with an eighth generation Intel Core i7 processor to speed through multiple tasks.

Its 16GB RAM gives running applications immediate access to lots of fast memory and an AMD Radeon 530 graphics card which provides multimedia and video-gaming bliss.

These components combined with a 256GB Solid State Drive, 2TB Hard Disk and full 15.6" HD display should make the laptop future-proof and prevent the owner needing an upgrade within the next five years.

Dell's hardware has a proven track record of stability and the latest Inspiron 15 range continues this trend with quality components that function well together.

The accompanying Windows 10 operating system continues to impress and with the Cortana assistant built-in, there is no end to the jobs you can get done.

Bad points?

The only negative aspect of the laptop is the occasional sudden burst of activity from the cooling fan which can be annoying when all you want is to work in silence.

Best for ...

Anyone looking to upgrade their home or business laptop to something that will last. Those familiar with slow and lagging computers will experience a new lease of life when their laptop boots up immediately.

Avoid if ...

Heavy duty multi-tasking is a bit beyond your requirements as there are less expensive models out there capable of web browsing and the occasional spreadsheet work.

Score: 9/10.
