The Dell Inspiron i3162-0003BLU is a bestselling refurbished laptop that has been praised for its compact design, low price, good battery life and for its fast solid state drive. However, the SSD only offers 32GB of storage space which is tiny for modern standards. Plus the Bali Blue color is not for everyone and might put off some users who would prefer a more traditional color such as gray or black.
Pros
- Affordable price
- Compact size
- Good battery life
- SSD
Cons
- Underpowered hardware
- No optical drive or Ethernet
- Tiny storage drive
Bottom Line
The Dell Inspiron i3162-0003BLU is an affordable laptop which offers good battery life and a funky blue color. However, the hardware is not suited for power users and is best suited for basic tasks at home or at school.
