Dell has the Inspiron 5410 14-inch laptop with quad-core Core i3-1125G4 processor, 8GB upgradable RAM, 256GB SSD for $400. This usually sells for $500.

  • Core i3-1125G4, much faster than the more common dual-core 1115G4 and virtually identical performance [cpubenchmark.net] to the i5 and i7
  • 14-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) wide viewing angle display (IPS equivalent, 250 nits, 45% NTSC), matte, non-touch
  • 8 GB DDR4 RAM (1 SODIMM in 1 slot, 2nd slot free)
  • 256 GB PCIe NVME SSD
  • UHD Graphics - but this is not the same iGPU from the 10th gen Comet Lake and earlier CPUs, it's based on Iris Xe architecture with fewer execution units, still ok for light gaming
  • Ports: USB-C, 2 USB-A, HDMI, micro SD, audio
  • USB-C port supports DisplayPort and Power Delivery (but supplied AC adapter uses its own barrel-type power port)
  • Backlit keyboard
  • Fingerprint reader (integrated into power button)
  • 54 WHr battery
  • HD webcam with privacy cover
  • Intel 802.11ac Wi-Fi / Bluetooth
  • Weight: 3.2 lbs
  • Construction: aluminum lid and keyboard deck, plastic bottom panel

I got this laptop late last year for a family member and also use it quite a bit myself. For the price, it's really hard to beat. The quad-core i3-1125G4 CPU is as fast as the i5 and i7 equivalents (which also only have 4 cores). The other pluses for me:

Good build quality - this has similar materials and feels a bit more solid than the 7000-series convertible I just got (7425), which has more keyboard flex
Decent screen for the price - mediocre color coverage, but far better contrast and viewing angles than TN screens you usually see at this price
Good port selection and full-service USB-C
Upgradability with 2 SODIMM slots, 1 of them free
Reliable Intel wifi chip (I can't stand the flaky Realtek chips found on many cheap laptops)
Good battery life thanks to fairly large battery
Good keyboard feel (decent amount of travel and a good balance between cushiness and tactility)
Nice "quality of life" features like backlit keyboard and fingerprint reader built into power button
Quiet fan

The only real downside is that it runs fairly hot on the bottom, so not great for on-lap use. However, Dell's Power Manager (download from Windows Store) has thermal profiles, allowing you to choose more performance, less noise, or less heat.

Dell is also selling the 5410 with the 11300H processor and 512GB SSD for $80 more. However, I do not recommend that model as it's not significantly faster and the H-series processor will certainly run hotter. Also, that one has its 8GB RAM split between 2 SODIMMs, so to upgrade you'll need to toss one or both.

ETA: Here's a YouTube review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1BydFwlGPw, just keep in mind the review model has the 300 nit rather than 250 nit display.

I was browsing on dell website and saw Inspiron 16 5000 for $550, would that be a better deal than this for college student looking for a decent laptop for college use (non-gaming laptop)? Also, given a choice between AMD ryzen 5 and 12th intel,which is better? Dell website has inspiron 16 for either intel or Amd,same price
Under "Laptop Deals," I see 12th gen Intel for $550 or Ryzen for $600, but the latter also has a brighter display (300 vs 250 nits). I'd probably go with AMD - the two processors have essentially identical performance [cpubenchmark.net], but the Ryzen will run cooler and quieter, and probably with better battery life (assuming same size battery).

Compared with this 5410, it really depends on how much they value portability. A 16-inch laptop is too big and heavy to lug around with any frequency - it's a full pound heavier than this 14-inch laptop. I would probably not recommend that for most college students unless you're absolutely sure they don't need the portability more than say once a week. I just can't imagine that's the case for most college students.

If you can stretch your budget $150, I would definitely consider this Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro, with 6-core Ryzen 5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, and a brighter and higher-res 16:10 touch display: https://slickdeals.net/f/15888088-lenovo-ideapad-5-pro-touch-laptop-14-1400p-ryzen-5-5600u-16gb-ram-512gb-ssd-550-costco-members-10-shipping

Thank you for the info, I went ahead with the 14 inch in this deal.

Is this the same one? Specs look the same, and it's still pricing at $399 even though it doesn't say it's a limited quantity deal.
