Dell Inspiron E1505 PC Notebook Reviews

This is my 3rd laptop & has it has been Ok. Customer Service thru Dell has been good, the wait for phone support has not been excessive. I had to send the system in for repairs after dropping it down the stairs, and that took a bit of effort.  They system that was returned was missing the Bluetooth & ad a couple other issues, but I survived.  I have the TrueLife WSXGA+ display, which I would not do again.  I have to position myself just right to prevent glare from light sources behind me.  Over all it has been a pretty good experience.  My 1st Dell & when the time comes, will probably...

The computer worked great during the standard 1 year man. warranty. Then the problems started- a new hard drive was need. And the Dell tech came to the house to install it, great, not, the tech forgot to put the screws back in the unit, now the hard drive can literally slide out if you pick up the computer wrong. Then the optical drive broke, and needed to be replaced. Then the blue screens started and continue now. Good thing I got the extended premium service plan.
TIP: IF you buy a Dell- buy an extended service plan
TIP: Don't buy Dell

I bought the Dell Inspiron e1505 for college and within one year, the hard drive died.  I cannot turn on the computer, and you have to ship it to Dell for them to fix it.  Dell has very poor customer service and it was difficult to get someone to talk to me on the phone.  When it was working, the wifi was fast and easy to connect, and the programs loaded easily enough.  However, the computer came with many unwanted and useless programs.  I like that the power cord is long and that it gets a good battery life, but the computer was just too bulky, awkward and heavy, especially compared with...

I have had my Dell Inspiron E1505 for about three years now and overall have had only minor problems with it.  I am on the computer daily for work, school, networking and gaming so my notebook gets exessive use.  I also haul it with me everyday to work and school and was concerned that the wear and tear may leave me having to purchase an new notebook evry year so I purchased the extended service plan and am happy to say that I have never had to use it.  That being said there are some issues that I do wish Dell would address.  One of the most minor of those issues is how easily the exterior...

The dell inspiron e1505 is a 15.4" widescreen notebook now available with the impressive intell core 2 Duo processor.The Inspiron 6400 is available through the Dell Business site and is the same as the e1505.

The e1505 is a well rounded mainstream notebook, highly customizable and available at a competitive price.Now that it comes with the Core 2 Duo at similar prices to the original Core Duo you'll be getting even more value for your dollar.

The Dell Inspiron e1505 with Core 2 Duo and X1400 graphics card is a great performer for the price. If you can utilize this notebooks dual core capabilities...

The Dell Insprion e1505 notebook is a great laptop, especially for college students.  It works great, and has enough memory and RAM to meet the needs of your average person.  It has lasted me three years thus far, and will be four years in June of 2010.  It is starting to run slow, but that may be my own fault.  If I were to change this computer, I would put a better graphics and sound card into this system.  It is a little heavy to carry back and forth between classes, but if you attend a college were the students do not take their laptops as often, this is a great computer.  If you do take...

I have been an avid Dell user for over 7 years now.  I have purchased 5 computers from them in that 7 or so years.  Always felt I was getting a good deal and a great computer.  Until this one. 

As for the computer itself  it has a great wide screen, intagrated number pad, and for a laptop- pretty good speakers.  It really ends there.  Within 2 months of owning it the AC adapter went kaput.  I called, they replaced.  2 months later, same thing, only this time the battery went with it.  They sent someone out to look at it, replaced the motherboard and still nothing.  Called back- they...

I have had my Dell Inspiron for about seven months now, and I have had no problems what so ever.  I came with Windows Vista, which in my opinion is a very good program.  I have had no trouble getting into any web site or program.  It has wifi and is very compatable.  My Notebook fits in my shoulder bag with room for other things that I may need to carry.  The card reader is excellent, it's pretty much reads anything which is good because I have three boys aging from twelve through two.  They can watch movies and play cd rom games, and when they need to move to a different room my notebook...

Prior to purchasing this laptop, I owned a desktop PC from Dell, which I'd had very few problems with. When I was purchasing the laptop, the sales person advised me to choose Windows Vista, claiming that it did not have as many problems as I had heard and was very user-friendly. I wish that I had never listened to him. I have had multiple problems running Vista on this laptop. It frequently lags, freezes, or crashes all together when I am only doing simple tasks with it.

Vista's updates were causing me trouble, so I turned automatic updates off. However, I'm now unable to get their updates to work...
