View Deal Why we recommend it The combination of a Core i7 processor, 16GB DDR5 memory and a 512GB SSD gives this Dell a well-balanced specification for everyday use.

Alongside Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth, there are USB-C 3.2, USB-A 3.2 and USB-A 2.0 ports, HDMI 1.4, an SD card reader and a headphone jack.

The full-size keyboard and numeric keypad also make it a sensible choice for business and college work.

At 4.28 pounds, it's reasonably portable for a full-size 15.6-inch laptop, although this is more of an everyday workhorse than an ultraportable.

Price context & historical value Best Buy has slashed the price of this Dell laptop from $1,099.99 to $599.99, saving you $500, a substantial cut on a laptop with a Core i7 processor, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and a 512GB SSD.

At its $1,099.99 regular price, several of the compromises would be harder to overlook, particularly the basic integrated graphics, 220-nit display and lack of a backlit keyboard.

At $599.99, it's a good all-rounder for someone primarily interested in productivity and everyday computing tasks.
