- Lisa Gade reviews the Dell Inspiron 11 3000, a 2-in-1 Windows 8.1 convertible with an 11.6" touch screen and Lenovo Yoga style 360 degree hinges. You can use the 3 lb. Inspiron 11 as a laptop, tablet, presentation or tent mode device and it runs full Windows 8.1 64 bit on Intel Celeron dual core or Pentium quad core CPUs with Intel HD graphics. We look at the 2.16GHz Pentium model with 4 gigs of RAM and a 500 gig, 5400 RPM HDD and a 1366 x 786 display. The laptop has 3 USB ports, HDMI, 3.5mm audio, single band WiFi 802.11n, Bluetooth 4.0 and a 43 wHr battery. The Inspiron starts $399, and Dell will offer a 13" model in the fall of 2014.

I bought this about 2 weeks ago. Performance stalled a lot from a cold start. And the apps would freeze. Installed an Samsung 840 EVO SSD. Never has seen such a drastic change in performance. Boots in 10 seconds. Apps instantly open. If you want me to make a video on how to install the SSD give me a like :)
you have to buy an sata to usb adaptor online. look it up in amazon. Then you need Samsung Migration tool software to clone it
neil haque If you could create a video showing how to clone the drives that would be very much appreciated. I'm interested in eventually installing an ssd with the 8gb ram upgrade to get a very smooth running machine.
can`t wait
please do man! I plan on getting this laptop and wanted to throw in an SSD immediately.
yup! please do a video about it! It will help!
Your reviews always leave me having no questions about the models I am searching.
THANKS!
Been waitin for this review, thank god it was you that did it, always a thorough and pleasant job
I have been looking for a decent review of this model for a while now and this is the only one that addresses all my questions and contextualises things! Thanks a bunch Lisa Gade, this review is very useful!
Lisa i just wanted to say that i think you do a great job with these reviews. they have been very helpful for me. i'm typing this now from my new inspiron 11. thanks and keep up the good work!
Lisa you are by far my absolute tech reviewer. Always thorough and logical in your reviews. Keep up the good work!
Excellent review, i saw a couple of review from other but yours was the best, thanks a lot !
From Dominican Republic
Excellently-done review. All the info I need. Thanks!
Anyone know of a capacitive stylus that will work with this screen? I've tried different ones and they always skip. Works well with finger touch but I'd like to find a stylus that would work with it too.
Thanks for the excellent review Lisa. Any plans to review the 13" version?
We are in the process of deciding between the two of them.
I love how I can be 99% certain that there's a review from MTR for the laptop I'm interested in. I love it!
i bought last year's model (without the rotation) initially as a cheap backup ultrabook and surprisingly it became my main laptop after upgrading to ssd. very satisfied with the value and found it underrated
I love you and your reviews my birthday is February 9th I can't wait to get this!!! Your the best!!
Mines the tenth and I'm getting the exact same thing
My brothers is the 16th also getting this ! Guess we all love this lol
Mine was the 11th and I got one!
Hey guys since you might have bought this already could you share your experiences till now.
As I am planning to get one
Love your videos Lisa. Great Job, very helpful.
I have the Inspiron Duo 1090 and I love it from day one. Other than the cool factor of the flip screen back in 2011 - it has proven to be a solid workhorse for office, internet and even videos production (not super uder editing but being able to do a basic nice vid). I saw this on Dell's site last week and want one so I very muchh appreciate your review.
BTW - the Duo is still holding it's own at 3-1/2 years.
Lenovo yoga 2 11 or Dell Inspiron 11 3000? Which is better for every day use for a college student?
Great review Lisa! Can you do a smackdown comparison between the Yoga 2 Pro i7 and Surface Pro 3 i7 when it comes out in August? Just got the Yoga after going back and forth between these two.
Great video. I just bought this and am having the windows 10 system installed
In the section for wireless display technologies, do you mean to tell me that Mirror cast is usually found on Bay-trail or box chip CPU platforms and WiDi wireless display tech is usually found on Intel Core CPU platforms ?
Which would you buy the Dell Inspision, hp pavillon or Lenovo yoga 2?
8 years old and the brightness touch everything is perfect for me....watching on it rn
can please have a review on dell inspiron 13 7000 2 in 1 too ?
Hey Liza! When will you review the HP Pavillion x360?? I am looking forward to it..
I have the Pentium version. I replaced the HD with a 256 SSD and I upgraded the Ram to 1 stick of 8GB.I need to run some test to see how the performance is now. I like to buy base models with an Upgraded CPU only, or refurbished and then have the option to add everything else on my own. The above review is very accurate and this laptop is a great machine for the money. I watch this channel because it has been spot on with every machine I have personally owned.
I buy about 15 to 20 desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones per year just because I am addicted to A. Seeing how much performance I can get out of lower priced machines. and B. The next big thing. I have used everything from the Acer R7 Star Trek looking laptop to every line of surface tablet from 1-3 and RT, Apple macbooks, Air, ipads, Samsung Galaxy Notes and about 20 different android tablets with my favorite being the Nook HD+ with a MOD (price and screen can't be beat). Gaming laptops, Gaming desktops and build my own machines. I basically play with them for a month or so resell and buy something else. Keep up the good work Lisa! This is my go to channel to feed my tech addiction.
I will post performance test with the upgrades listed above soon.
Would it be possible to replace the CPU in this laptop if it's soldered?
Can you review the new model with an intel pentium n3700, 4GB RAM, and a 128GB SSD, and compare it to this one with the 500 GB HDD?
Very informative and straight forward video. Thanks :)
Hey lisa, is there any tips to protect build in laptop battery from damaging?
I have always loved your reviews. I really want the Surface pro 3 but its way too expensive for my wallet. I need a laptop for college since i'm just starting out. Just will be doing research papers and social media between classes so I think this one will work just fine. Thanks again for your attention to detail! : )
does it come with microsoft office and all though programs out of the box?
Well that sealed the deal, Dell Inspiron 11 3000, I'll be taking you home tomorrow.
Thanks for the review!
Just got this from dell for $400!
It's suposed to come this week.
I'm so excited!
Just got one for $199 July 1, 2016. Bumped RAM to 8 Gb and dropped in a bigger SSD in place of the 32 Gb eMMC drive and a 120 Gb SD card. Fresh install of Windows 10 without all the Dell bloatware. Still evaluating it for the next 3 weeks. Stylus works, but no hand writing recognition. Wanted a tablet with a keyboard for checking off inspection checklists at work, may just use it as a small laptop with the added bonus of the touch screen.
Always love your videos! Picked this up for $150~ for a linux box. Liking it so far. SSD helps a ton.
Lincoln Yellick ,, where did you buy??.. i want also this with a linux os.. could you send me a link.. ..
I run Linux Mint online, currently 19.2 which is the best mint yet
This is what we call a perfect review! A new subscriber :)
Smackdown please between this and Lenovo Yoga 2 11
Great review! Thanks.
What could indeed be improved memory up to 8 gb?
Excuse me, I no nothing much about laptop (the quality or power display etc...) can you recommend whether I should buy this Dell Inspiron 11 or Levono yoga 2? Thanks you.
Hi I'm using dell inspiron11 3000 series. I cannot find the numeric pad,num lock,? how can I find it? can you please help? thnx a lot.
Mine made a popping sound and then shut off. Now it won't charge! Was it an electrical short? I've had this laptop for 5 months, too soon to be dealing with issues. 😩
I know I’m a little late but I have this laptop and the screen flexes and it makes the screen flip out and click everywhere. Do you know of any fix for that?
I just purchased the i3 model for basic schooling needs. Planning to throw in an ssd and ram upgrade. It's hard to find laptops this small with the core series in it.
Thank you for this review, it's is most helpful and I'm getting this laptop with Intel core i3 around next week for school! It's a great laptop from what I've heard :)
How was your experience till now with this laptop.
As I am planning to get it tomorrow
Queria saber si la bateria es extraible.
I wanted to know if the battery is removable
For Anyone:
I have this laptop but am thinking of getting a MacBook Air (2017).
Which screen is “better”?
For some reason I find that the single band wifi cards get better range when using 2.4ghz. Can anyone explain why?
Lisa, Does this have SATA 2 or 3? I'm looking at the 6Gb/s ssds. And would you say the pentium is a power saver over the i3? Looks like it is on Intel's spec comparison.
I got this refurbished for $315 on Amazon with 1 year warranty OMG I love it!! I just needed a laptop for school and the tablet mode is just a bonus for me!! I love the TouchScreen and how responsive it is, I am so impressed. Just remove the security software it comes with and all the bloatware to make it faster. If you're looking for something affordable, just go for this one. It does what it needs to and it's fast enough for me. :)
Can I install Fedora 20 with Windows 8.1? Can I make it dual boot?
Would it be possible to add a 3G/4G LTE internal modem card?
i really like this review. The reviewer speaks very efficiently to an obvious tech crowd, so every word is pretty important.
Welp, mine is having a few issues after two years of light use. Really slowed down after upgrading to win 10, overheating and most recently the left keys on the keyboard (esc,1,a,z caps) stopped working. Did a google search and found it to be a common problem with this series. I had almost forgot I purchased a warranty for it, so off it goes to be repaired. Really do like the way it looks, hopefully adding an SSD and more ram will help.
Does this laptop work with a Dell Active Pen? Or do I need a third party stylus?
Lisa, could you do a review of the Dell 13.3 7000 2-into-1?
Joe Secor I already had one ..
This or the Surface Pro? I'm trying to get a budget tablet that has full windows 8 and can runs most programs. I already have a really good desktop pc so this tablet would be for college and a few very basic games. Anyway would a surface pro (1st generation) be better or is this laptop/tablet better is terms of specs?
The surface pro 3 runs from $799-$1300 not including the 2 yr plan and the Office 365 Home along with it. The Dell Inspiron 11 3147 Signature Edition 2 in 1 PC runs from $400-$500 also not including the 2 yr plan and the Office 365 Home. But if your a student or in the military that price will be a huge difference. Plus if sign up for the Bing Rewards from Microsoft with a purchase over $75 2-day shipping is free up until November 23rd.
I was talking about the first surface pro not the surface pro 3. The first surface pro and this dell are almost the same tablet internally.
Get the surface pro 1, it have a i5
#Dell #Inspiron *13 7000* is discounted up to 21% on amzn.to/1uXXhIa. Visit to get it and save more. Good luck
Do you think this is better than the Hp x360 ?
if you had choice between this and the HP 13.3" Pavilion x360 13-a019wm... which one and why?
Would this work for recording full hd game footage, running minecraft, and editing full hd video
Hi, good day, can you please help me on my DELL Inspiron 11 3000 series, I'm having a problem on the camera, when i switch on the camera i don't see anything and yet the light is on which says that camera is working, but i don't see any images of me, its total dark, i need your help asap. thnx so much.
I tried to connect it to JBL bluetooth speaker it gets paired but it won't play music with the speaker. What should I do?
Hi does anyone know; would the screen be as bright as the the Yoga 2 11?
When is a review of the latest Chromebooks coming? (Say, the Dell one...)
Lisa, great review as always. I do like how the yoga looks more, but those 3 USBs and the full HDMI is really nice on this. Is there any way you could use DOTA 2 as your gaming benchmark moving forward? I know you use Civilization most of the time, but I think the popularity on PC gaming leans towards games like Minecraft, DOTA 2, LoL, Hearthstone, etc. I'm really looking for an 11" convertible like this that will play the games listed at least on the lowest settings. I wonder if a SSD would make DOTA 2 runnable on low at native resolution on this. Thanks again!
I have the Dell Inspiron 11 3000 touch screen, would you know the combination key to turn on/off wifi. I cant get it to work
Do you have a plan to review Dell 13 7000, 2-in-1 laptop soon?
Looking for it!
hello, I have some doubts, which is better according to your opinion.. dell inspiron 11 or lenovo yoga 2 11. the dell can be upgraded to SSD and memory ram. what about hardware upgrades lenovo yoga 2.???
thanks for answering
Does it have a cd slot or dvd slot where I can make cds
Are the newer Inspiron 11’s compatible with Windows 8?
I just turned on mine and it keeping beeping nonstop. I turned it off and it stops but when I turn it back on it starts again. Help!
What stylus can I use for this? I want to use this for college since it's cheaper than the surface pro 3
You can use it for all purpose
Hi there, will I void my warranty after upgrading my Dell Inspiron 11-3147 from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10?
Great review
Would like to see Lisa's review of both the new Dell Inspiron 13, the new Dell XPS 13, and a side-by-side, strengths/weaknesses comparison of those two . . .
A smackdown between the lenovo yoga 11 and this would be awesome.
Just purchased an Asus t100 as my "classroom helper". Should I return it and pick up one of these instead? The price difference is about $70. Worth the upgrade?
Is it faster than macbook air 2012? Sorry im too lazy to look it up!
can this device run Movie Maker? I mainly need a laptop for typing papers(for college) and editing videos for youtube via movie maker.....
great reviewer. Thanks for the Video .
I still have this laptop today, after all these years. Works amazingly well and is now on Windows 10
Do you have i3 version or pentium
Isn't slow like mine?
I’m about to try and revive mine full size as cars slot
Hello.hd video youtube 1080 no problem no sound lag?
How long this device can live without charger, and here i3?
can the ram be upgraded.
Do you think this laptop is better than the lenovo yoga 2 11? I am torn between them.
Is this a good computer for college/ high school students? In terms of longevity, overall experience, things like that?
Pardon my hearing, Lisa. When are we going to look at it?
I have a laptop like this and it freezes badly, is there any way to upgrade its ram? My laptop currently has 4gb ram.
Could I still use this type of computer if I'm going into a architecture major in college?
Maybe. You could build a high powered desktop in your dorm for your CAD programs and modeling, then use a laptop like this one for taking notes and research. The 3000 series is not powerful enough to do any heavy lifting.
could you please review the origin eon 11s
Waiting for the full review in the website :))) still isn't up
Ordered one today. Will come tomorrow. Its the 4th gen i3 based model. Inspiron 3148
how is the screen quality vs the yoga 2?
I have this laptop and it keeps randomly shutting off I cleaned everything yet it keeps doing it.
So, I got this laptop last week and actually had to return the first one to best buy because it wasn't connecting to wifi. After I got the second one, it had same problem, and I decided to sort it out myself. I found out the system is set to automatically turn off the wifi. You will have to uncheck that box in the wifi properties so that your wifi will constantly be on. Otherwise, you are going to have the pc automatically turn off the wifi even after you manage to connect it. I got the one with intel Pentium, 8GB RAM, and ssd.
+Calvin Dike hey man, i am also considering to buy one of those. is it good? can u tell me your experience
+Nadun Buddhima Rodrigo so far, If you've used a Dell laptop or you want sth. with the new specs, this laptop is definitely a good buy for u. Also, it comes with Windows 10 so, don't expect lag due to update of OS. It's been really good so far. I was undecided as to whether to buy it or Lenovo yoga 2 with Intel core i3. The Dell has the 8gb of ram and ssd which makes it one with the predominant specs of 2015. The only downside is there are no backlight keys and the touchpad has some resistance. Also, there is a noticeable increased brightness when I stop using it for my old hp pavilion g7. Lenovo yoga2 comes with Windows 8. It's been awesome so far for me. If you don't plan on using it most times for stuff like heavy editing, and playing high processing games, you should be fine. For me, I enjoy playing fifa(not the one from windows store). Will see how it performs with that. Hope this helps.
Mine will not recognize USB mice, and how do i get into BIOS
This is a BIG difference that Lisa mentions about the capability to remove the bottom panel and replace the hard drive etc. A lot of ultrabooks do not allow you to do that. Some ultrabooks like sony have everything soldered to the board.
Hey Lisa, Received my Dell Inspiron 11 3000 as a gift ( about 3 ) yrs ago ... Enjoyed your video ... Wondered why my laptop doesn't have vents ? Windows 10 as the software ( geez what a nightmare that is ) in addition curious what the tiny square ( port ? ) is on the upper right hand side ... I've watched many video's to try and conserve battery drain but nothing really works ... Battery life is an absolute nightmare ... I don't know if my Windows updates are using some battery life as I'll go to sleep with 87% and wake up to 70 something when I turn it on in the morning ... Thx in advance and happy holidays from New York
Is it good for recording videos and editing
My laptop wont turn on.. There's no flash in the screen and it only beeps so loud.. Anyone could help me please??? It's the same model Dell Inspiron II.. Help please.
Can someone answer please what i shoul buy dell 11 2 in 1 or lenovo yoga 2 11 please someone answer :D
Are there any wacom-esque stylus that i could use??
