Sam's Club has the Dell Inspiron 7570 on sale through 08/21/2018 for $699.00+tax in store only. Please note this version of the Dell Inspiron 7570 has the 8th generation i7 processor, 8 GB ram with an empty slot, a 1 TB 5400 HDD with 8 GB SSD cache and NVIDIA GeForce 940MX 4GB.

Dell Inspiron 7570 $699.00

  • Intel Core i7-8550U (8th Generation)
  • 8 GB RAM (two slots, one empty)
  • NVIDIA GeForce 940MX 4 GB
  • 15.6" Full HD touchscreen
  • 1 TB 5400 Hybrid HDD with 8 GB cache
  • 3 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type A
  • 1 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C (DP/Power Delivery)
  • 1 HDMI
  • 10/100/1000 Ethernet Port
  • 802.11ac + Bluetooth 4.2, Dual Band 2.4&5 GHz, 2x2
  • SD card reader
  • 3-cell battery
  • Backlit keyboard
  • HD webcam
  • Windows 10 Home

This is the lowest price I have seen for this configuration new.

Please do not compare it to the i5 version, nor the version without a discrete graphics card, nor the version without a 1 TB hybrid drive with 8 GB cache, nor the version without a touchscreen.

Also note that for whatever reason the laptop is not labeled as an Inspiron 7570 at Sam's Club stores. The tag I saw read "15.6" Inspiron 7000 Touchscreen Laptop." It also said NVIDIA 960MX. I can confirm it is actually NVIDIA 940MX as stated on the website.

This laptop is expandable.Applause You can add up to 32 GB of RAM.

You can also swap out the Hybrid HDD and/or add an M.2 drive in the empty M.2 2280 slotPeace.

The Dell Inspiron 7570 is compatible with the Dell Business Dock - WD15 with 130W adapter. You plug it in via the USB C port. The dock is $199 at Dell but can be found at various lower price points at other retailers.

There is a 4 cell version of this laptop but it comes with an M.2 drive and no HDD. The 4 cell battery takes up part of the 2.5" drive bay so you can only use the M.2 slot.
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

This is a very thorough post!

I love the "please don't compare it to the xxx and yyy"! The other details noted above are great too!

Great job!
Hybrid Hard Drive, the SSD cache is used for caching files on the hard drive so that frequently used files that are hard to read (thousands of tiny files) can be read quickly, such as for booting the OS faster or launching games.

It's the same idea behind Intel Optane drives, though the SSD and Hard Drive are separate then. There are software alternative to this idea too like PrimoCache and StoreMI for AMD. It can work pretty well as an improvement over a spinning drive alone but will never come close to raw SSD speed.

This configuration does not appear to be particularly compelling... not much really stands out. Nice to have expandability, but I think I'll hold off for a machine that already has what I'm going for from the start. But thanks op!

Looks like it's an 8GB cache on the 1TB hybrid drive for faster performance.

Seems like a good find.
Biggest drawback of this unit is a poor 3-cell battery that won't last very long, maybe 2-3 hours on a single charge.

From the details page: "Bend it to your will:A 180-degree hinge lets you lay your screen flat, making it easier to create and collaborate, or sketch and take notes seamlessly with an active pen"

TLDR yup. Pen support.

It is a hybrid drive. It is a 1 TB 5400 drive with 8 GB of flash all in one chassis. The 8 GB is a cache and over time the most accessed files are stored there. I think it takes time for it to fully optimize. It is definitely slower than my SSD powered desktop but I am giving it a few weeks before I render a final judgment. And there is still an open M.2 slot.

The item is only available in store. To the right of the button that has "out of stock" above it there should be a button that says "pick up in club." Make sure your local club is showing. If not enter your zip code and choose the appropriate club. I've check 10 different clubs at random and they all either have the option of picking up today or tomorrow. You can order online and pick up in club.

Slickdeals keeps breaking my links. On the Dell Inspiron 7570 website if you scroll down it shows a 7570 opened flat and a Dell pen next to it. The text says the touchscreen version does use the pen.
