16 Plus Laptop DB16250-16.0-inch 16:10 2.5K (2560x1600) Display, Intel Core Ultra 9 288V, 32GB LPDDR5X Memory, 2TB SSD, Arc Graphics, Backlit Copilot Key Keyboard, Windows 11 Home

Not what I wanted. I made the mistake. I ordered this computer under the new Dell's renaming plan. I wanted the renamed Latitude, not the renamed Inspiron which this computer is, and the seller CLEARLY titled it as such. The Latitude has more ports than the Inspiron. Again, MY BAD. Why... Why me. After looking and looking and then making this mistake...GRRRR. Anyways, what a fantastic computer!! I purchased my previous computer around ~2008, so yes, I am impressed with the newest and latest. I chose the upgraded components such as the Ultra 9, 32GB the high-end LPDDR5X (I'm talking about a max of 8,533Mbps, OMG), 2TB SSD... Logi M650L mouse. This combo is so fast, I mean so fast, I can't even keep up. Just a blink of an eye and my photography program(s) run, and the task is finished. The backlit keyboard keeps turning off and turns back on with a touch of any key. I'll have to find the way to disable this in that I want to see the keyboard when I initially place my fingers. After that, it can turn off as I know where the symbols are. Very easy and actually very quick setup. I chose to use a thumb drive to bring my programs and data over. Recognized my printer very quickly. My home webpage already saved my 'favorites', so no problems there. Speaker is sufficient in that I do not have to turn it up to 100, just to barely hear it. Usually, 50-55 suffices with this computer. I can actually hear the stereo separation. Even with the audio/video players equalizer, it still plays music flat. Absolutely no bass. Yes, I know this isn't a home 5,000w speaker system, but this is 2025. I would expect a laptop to sound like a mini stereo system with, I don't know, BASS... or at least better than the cheapest cellphone. Come-on. USB ports... As stated before, I wanted the Latitude with more ports. This one has only one USB. My mouse takes that one. That's it. No more ports. Hmm, 2025 says at least 2 ports standard?? It has 2 USB-C ports. One is occupied for power, although I believe it can be used if running off of battery. This computer gets slightly; I mean very, very, VERY slightly warm on the bottom of the left side. Hardly even noticeable unless you are actually looking for it. The fan is also very quiet. I do not notice it unless I'm looking for the noise, slightly turning my head or it speeds up Still very quiet. Other than that, I can't hear it with the awesome, no bass music playing. Screen is crystal clear and is advertised as "Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution)". Yeah, don't ask me. It seems to work. I love this computer...BUT, as stated previously, I wanted the Latitude. Meh, I'll have to use my USB adapter. Only one con I see. When turning on the computer, everything loads up fast to include connecting to the internet. However, the computer is slow to allow the home webpage to connect to the internet. I don't know why. I click the internet icon and shows it, in of itself, will not connect for a good minute, although the computer itself indicates it is connected to the Wi-Fi network. Could be my non-McAfee internet security checking things out first or could be this newest and latest Wi-Fi7 but who knows. Just a minor inconvenience. Lesson learned. Take your time and know which model you are purchasing.

I got this during the cyberday deals in November 2025. It is well worth it even at market value as this is noticeably faster than my other business-grade Dell, which is very expensive. Looks great, low weight, wonderful performance and was simple to set up. I've had a lot of laptops over the years, and of course they age themselves out, but this one is the only one where I'd brag about how fast it handles all of my multiple apps. NOTE: I am not a typical online gamer but I do have several lighter games (idle games, for example) on at once with several internet tabs open, never nearing 50% capacity.

I am still getting used to my new machine. So far shut up has worked without any trouble and performance is excellent. I do find it annoying that Microsoft wants you to use the computer is the way they want you to use the computer and some of their products get in the way of my work. Microsoft OneDrive and Edge want to be the ones that I use and I had to spend some time taming them. The only real complaint I have about the machine is that it does not have an SD card reader built-in and I had to purchase an external device for this job.

I can definately say the engineering DOES NOT feel like i9 with 32mb ram. I thought I was upgrading from my Inspiron 17 inch laptop with i5 and 8mb ram but I see only app issues and weight times. If I could go back in time: I would gladly spend an addition $500 dollars for a laptop the DOES NOT have embedded ram and cheap plastic kepboard. A new laptop should not have issues.

So far this has been a good laptop. Dell improved the clamshell hinges on this model so they seem a bit sturdier. (These broke on my last Dell laptop.) It was easy to set up. Battery life is good. Sound quality is good but not the best. I like the size because I wanted a slightly bigger screen. It only had a few ports, so think about how many you will need. No DVD player. I use this as a personal laptop and not for work. I don’t do any gaming on it.

I ordered the one with the Core Ultra 9 processor, 32GB of RAM, and a 2TB SSD. My profession is such that I use my computers extensively. Also, as an amateur photographer, need to use photo-processing software. I installed the upcoming Windows 11 Pro 25H2 (laptop comes with the Home version). This laptop handles everything like a charm. Have never had complaints with Dell quality. This should last me a few years. Understand, though, that the laptop has only 1 USB-A port, 1 USB-C, 1 Thunderbolt port, and one universal audio jack. There is no SD or microSD card reader. I am fine with purchasing a USB-C adapter with card readers, etc. The laptop is quite slim, weighs a mere 4+ lbs, and is pleasant to look at - the case is light-blue in color. The screen resolution is perfect for my needs (set magnification at 125%). Got it on sale for $1,099 which, for me, is a reasonable price for it. Finally, note this isn't a gaming laptop. I don't play any games on my computers, so I cannot comment on that. But it is a rather functional and able laptop for work and home computing needs.

Nice machine. Easy to work with. This screen is very easy on your eyes. I work a lot with spreadsheets and it makes you tired. This machine has made a difference for me. Maybe it is personal but I am less tired after 8 hours of intensive data analyse. I bought an extension for the different USB and USB-C and mini cards. Light and fast. Recommend for them working with data.

Purchased it very good prize during Christmas. Very light, very fast, so far no issue. however the AI thing is a little bit annoying. This is not just for dell, all AI pcs. High screen resolution. Because it is light you may need to handle carefully. Not sure it may take abuse well.

Very fast, nice and useful!

Its very good laptop. Only issue i face is heating up of keyboard. This is due to exhaust fan openings which is at the bottom. Whe. Its not emiting heat comoltely keyboard gets hot.

pretty good laptop no issues so far. only the annoying sleep mode issue when lid is closed, and the laptop wakes up :( i don't think i like the keyboard typing, very plasticky and you feel like you press hard to the keys. the keypad does gets warm but is somewhat acceptable somehow when i type while its hot.

je suis satisfait depuis que je l'ai
