The 2024 update to the Dell Inspiron 16 with two lineups and four configurations has made its way to Nepal. They succeed the 5630 and 5635 models from last year and come in both Intel and AMD flavours. In this article, we will discuss further the Dell Inspiron 16 (2024), including its price in Nepal.
Dell Inspiron 16 (2024) Overview
Design and Display
The Dell Inspiron 16 (2024) is a pretty standard-looking laptop with an Ice Blue or Midnight Blue colour, just the kind of design you would want as a student or an office worker. You can only buy the former shade in Nepal though, which is the lighter option between the two. The thing is made of a mix of recycled aluminium and plastic and has gone through military-grade testing to ensure a reliable build quality. It has a full-size keyboard complete with a dedicated number pad and a Copilot key to employ its new-found AI capabilities.
There are multiple choices of screen on the Dell Inspiron 16 (2024) — all measuring 16 inches, as the name suggests. Other than that, all the available options have a wide-viewing angle, suggesting the panel utilised is an IPS LCD. Meanwhile, the resolution and brightness on that thing can go up to WUXGA and 300 nits respectively. You could also have touch support on it along with ComfortView (software-based) or ComfortView Plus (hardware-based) for blue light reduction. All the options are capable of a 60Hz refresh rate offering a standard amount of screen fluidity.
Performance
Customers can get multiple configurations of this laptop depending on their necessity. But here we will only discuss the variants available in Nepal. There are two models — 5640 and 5645, where the former has Intel and the latter has AMD processors. There are a total of three variants for the Intel option, while AMD only gets a sole configuration. Regardless, the Dell Inspiron 16 (2024) can have up to Intel Core 7 150U or Ryzen 7 8840U processor as its brains.
Meanwhile, you can either have the NVIDIA GeForce MX750A dedicated GPU with 2GB GDDR6 VRAM handle the graphics or settle with the integrated one. Likewise, the laptop comes with a dual-channel 16GB DDR5-5200 RAM out-of-the-box and allows for future upgrades to double the capacity. On the other hand, there is a 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD handling the storage. It is currently unknown if it can be swapped out for a larger one when needed.
