The awe-inspiring dell Inspiron series R started showing up well since its release on 15-Dec-2010 with its 14” (14 R), 15” (15R) and specifically with Dell Inspiron N7110 AC adapter which have taken hearts by its marvelous looks and outstanding performance. Dell definitely knew what they wanted for competing in the era of technology, they have sent a brave soldier, the N7110. The dell Inspiron is a landmark of class, higher than the others. Its inspiring architecture and the reliability makes it a perfect replacement for the desktop pc. Dell has stood up yet again with its Inspiron N7110 to challenge the competitors with a greater zeal. Dell N7110 has proven its name, “Inspiron”.

Dell Inspiron N7110 processor relies on Intel Core i5-2510M quad-core processor (clock speed at 2.3GHz) which is full-powered, standard-voltage processor, and based on Sandy Bridge technology. Its system is supported with 6GB of RAM. Nvidia GeForce GT 525M graphics chip with Optimus technology (which support to automatically switch into integrated Intel HD Graphics 3000 graphics chip if not used for energy saving) is resulting good performance in 3D gaming and other application. On PCMark Vantage testing, Dell Inspiron N7110 scores at 6,036. Since it supplied with big 9-cell Dell T114C battery, it can run up to 7 hours 51 minutes based on MobileMark 2007 tests. Those long battery life time can be considered top class.

Battery life lasted a whopping 7 hours 51 minutes on our MobileMark 2007 test, thanks to its 9-cell 90Wh battery. The automatic graphics switching technology from Nvidia , known as Optimus, also helped boost its battery life. The Optimus technology switches between the less power consuming integrated graphics for light productivity tasks and switches to the discrete GPU when needed for taxing graphics-intensive tasks, like gaming. In comparison, the Dell XPS 15 (Sandy Bridge), equipped with a 92Wh Dell Inspiron N7110 battery, lasted 6:58, and the Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (Thunderbolt) lasted a mere 4:40.

The Inspiron N7110's top model is standardly equipped with a 500 GB HDD. The installed Western Digital WDC WD5000BEVT-750RT0 doesn't belong to the fastest representatives with a speed of 5400 rpm. The sequential read and write rates are rather average with 67.75, respectively 63.43 MB/s. Good HDDs easily achieve more than 80 MB/s. State of the art SSDs can even achieve more than 300 MB/s. By the way: Amateurs shouldn't try to change the HDD. The removable (screwed) cover only allows accessing the RAM (two slots).

Displayul de 17.3 inch este excelent pentru jocuri cat si pentru filme. Dar sa nu ne oprim aici, trebuie sa spunem ca combinat cu rezolutia de 1600 x 900 pixeli ofera un spatiu de lucru mare – care iti aduce un plus de productivitate in mediul office. Dimensiunea pixelului este buna, este un display glossy asadar culorile se vad foarte bine, sunt vii, constrastul e ridicat iar unghiul de vizibilitate pe laterale este facut in asa fel incat sa se poata vedea pana la 160 grade.

The basic Inspiron N7110 sports a black muted design (this option won't cost you any extra), but with Dell's innovative new SWITCH by Design Studio lids (exclusive to the Dell Inspiron R Series), you can change up your lid design for $34.99 more. There are numerous lid options, including Peacock Blue, Fire Red, or Lotus Pink (my personal favorite). To switch your lids, you just press a button on the backside of the lid that allows it to pop off. The Dell Inspiron N7110 charger is made of plastic, but the interior and exterior has a brushed look to it, giving it a more dynamic design.

For the storage media, Dell Inspiron N7110 relies on 500 GB (5,400rpm) HDD, although those storege is spacious enough to keeps your digital files, but other laptop is this category, offers larger space. While for optical drive, it equipped with Dual-Layer DVD+/-RW (not a blue ray). Ports given are: two USB 3.0 ports, a USB 2.0, eSATA/ USB 2.0 combo, 3-in-1 card reader (SD, MMC, MS), VGA port, HDMI port and WiDi 2.0. Dell Inspiron N7110 wireless connection features: Ethernet, and Wi-Fi. It also has a 1.0-megapixel HD webcam.

Performance in our 3D gaming tests was good. It scored 52.6 frames per second (fps) on Crysis (DirectX 10) and 36.8fps on Lost Planet 2 (DirectX 9) (both on Medium quality settings). At higher settings the Inspiron N7110 produced slower frame rates on Crysis (14.7fps) and Lost Planet (16.4fps). Its Nvidia GeForce GT 525M graphics chipset will certainly give you some 3D performance, provided you adjust your in-game settings accordingly.

The Inspiron N7110 is a typical multimedia laptop that doesn't allow itself to make many mistakes. At the same time, it doesn't really excel in any relation. Workmanship, keyboard, connectivity, performance and emissions are on about the normal standard. As most other manufacturers, Dell unfortunately uses a run of the mill display that will only suffice less demanding users. However, the smooth and pleasantly large touchpad has to be mentioned positively. Most laptops can only dream of that. The Dell T114C battery life also surpasses numerous opponents. The Inspiron N7110 can be used in many ways.
