Dell Inspiron 15z Ultrabook Review

Today, we have with us Dell’s latest addition to the Inspiron z family. The Inspiron 15z,  which was launched early last month, is designed to give you an Ultrabook experience on a budget and without having to compromise on some of the basic features of a notebook. Dell sent us its fully spec’d out Inspiron 15z, which isn’t exactly light on the wallet. Let’s see how it manages to justify this price tag. Design and buildThe Inspiron 15z is similar to the notebooks in the series and features the same matt silver and grey finish. The notebook is fairly slim for a 15-incher with a depth of just 21 mm. With a weight of around 2.17 kg, it’s not as heavy as we expected it to be. The chassis is made up mostly of plastic in order to cut costs and that’s where we ran into a small issue.
