Here is one review: Cons: touch screen is not useful, it would better to replace touch screen with higher color (RGB) screen. Fan noise is a little loud.
At this price, it's hard to find 300 nits. Even 300 won't make a big difference under the sun.
Since I don't watch dirty videos outside, it's OK.

I did turn off "processor performance boost mode" from the power options, since I don't do video/photo editing. Base clock speed is plenty.
Set the "processor performance increase threshold" to 85% , turn system cooling policy to passive to keep it as cool as it can and prevent the fan to turn on.
I could not find however, the processor performance boost mode to turn it off, not was i able to find any set processor performance increase threshold setting.
i tried to clone over my old laptop using a 2280 stick in a external enclosure.
wouldnt boot up once installed in this inspiron 1515.
I think it was too much to go from disssimilar hardware, as well as the old laptop's SSD was MBR, legacy boot, (I didt convert the 2280 stick from MBR to GPT using partitioning software.
versus this inspiron 1515 is UEFI boot only.
