Community Reviews

This open-box Dell 14.5-inch OLED laptop stands out for its strong specs, including the Core Ultra 7, 32GB of memory, 1TB of storage, Thunderbolt ports, and likely solid battery life. The 3.2K touchscreen and higher refresh rate add to the appeal, and the RAM alone is seen as a big part of the value at this price. The main concerns are the lack of a discrete GPU and the design quirks, including borderless touchpad behavior and touch-style Fn keys. The open-box units also appear to be display models, so condition and battery wear may be less predictable. It is a capable machine if those tradeoffs fit your needs.

Common Questions (5)

They appear to be store display units being cleared out, with some regular returns mixed in. That means condition can vary, and a long-displayed demo may be more worn than an ordinary return.

This model uses touch-control Fn keys rather than actual physical F keys, and it also has a borderless touchpad. If you need tactile F keys for frequent shortcuts, this design may be a dealbreaker.

Yes, the price is viewed as strong for a 32GB, 1TB OLED laptop, and one buyer even paid $873 plus tax for an excellent unit. The 32GB RAM alone is estimated by one commenter to be worth close to $400.

No discrete GPU is included, so it is better suited to everyday work, school, and battery-focused use than graphics-heavy gaming or GPU-accelerated workloads. The upside is that battery life is likely pretty good.

The comments do not show the same warranty confusion seen with some Asus open-box purchases, but they do suggest buying extra protection if you want coverage for a demo-heavy unit. One buyer added Total Care for peace of mind.

How about add an extra $50 and get a Asus ProArt with Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 and RTX 4050?

Not defending this deal by any means, but a laptop is more than just CPU & GPU. Do you have a link?

Difference is Asus open box devices don't have proper warranty

Worst think about this is the lack of a discrete GPU. Best thing is the battery life is probably pretty good.

They did bring back XPS line, at outrageous prices.

I went to my local Best Buy a few days ago and then again today, and I noticed a lot of the laptops were removed from the display section. Also, when I check store pickup, every location shows exactly one laptop available, which makes me think it's probably the display unit being sold off.

That seems really solid as well, though I see it as unavailable now. Dell has higher refresh rate, thunderbolt ports, longer advertised battery life, and slightly larger screen, but if you need discrete graphics, then it's a no brainer.
