Exterior Overview

Front View: The device has a very minimalist approach to it and is pretty light weight. The body is completely finished in aluminium. Overall the look is very professional and built quality is certainly on the premium segment, the mat-finish certainly enhances the looks. The flip also houses the 'Dell' branding, which is subtle and look very elegant.

Interior Overview

Screen & webcam: The lid opens to reveal a 16-inch display surrounded by narrow bezels on all sides . Overall the hinge is pretty good and sturdy. The Dell Inspiron 16 (5620) is also equipped with a all new 1080p webcam with a physical shutter which is quite impressive and the microphone also performs very good.

Keyboard & Trackpad:  The same build is also continued within, beneath the display there is the chicklet style keyboard which has pretty satisfying typing experience with backlight enabled. There is no keyboard flex and overall pretty well built.
The trackpad is also large and the experience is also pretty good and also supports every windows gesture.
The power button also houses the fingerprint reader which is very fast and works flawlessly every time. 

 

Display, Sound & Software

Display: The laptop comes with a 16-inch Full HD+ display (1920 x 1200p) WVA panel() display with 45% NTSC. The brightness is also decent enough which is 250 nits and having almost 82% screen to body ratio. Overall the display is decent enough in real life usage but the maximum brightness can be a disadvantage in outdoor usage.

                                        

Sound: The laptop is paired with a pair of front-firing speakers which do produce very good and loud sound.

Software: The laptop also comes pre-loaded with Windows 11 Home with lifetime validity, pre-installed Office Home and Student 2021.

 

Performance

The laptop is powered by Intel Core i5 1240P which has a top clock-speed of-4.4 GHz. It also has 12 cores and 16 threads architecture.

We have tested the benchmarks and here are the results:

1. CINEBENCH  R23:

 

2. GEEKBENCH 5:

 

 

3. PC Mark 10:

 

The laptop was with us for a few days and we have tested the performance in-depth. Overall in normal usage it just flies. We also ran a few of the games which was certainly playable but not quiet enjoyable. We also tested photoshop and video editing and it can very easily breeze through it. The Dell Inspiron 16(5620) can handle any kind of photoshop editing and 1080p video editing pretty smoothly. You can also do any 2-D Auto-cad easily and also any kind of coding.

 

Verdict

The laptop is in the range of Rs 65,000 - 70,000. For the price is offers pretty impressive performance and also unbeatable build quality at the segment. Overall the laptop is providing a pretty balanced package. I can recommend this laptop without any hesitation, if you are looking for a pretty balanced laptop JUST GO FOR it.
