 Dell Inspiron 1464 June 30, 2010
damien-tt (Couva, Trinidad & Tobago)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Pros:
Extremely light for its size
Runs much cooler than other notebooks in its class (and given the processor it has)
Easily transportable
Has all the basic connections you will need
Sturdy and durable
Sweet, slim design with glossy looks
Very, very reasonable for the price
Cons:
No bluetooth (unless you really need it, why bother)
Bad partitioning (C'mon Dell, 50GB+ for Windows and the rest as the D drive?). Fortunately the system comes with restore discs (OS and drivers)so just reformat and partition the way you like.
Comments:
As the previous owner of a HP TX tablet notebook that died, I needed something quick to resume my college work. It had to be light yet powerful, with decent graphics and storage and also with wired and wireless connectivity. My research turned up the Acer Aspire 3820 and the Dell Inspiron 1464. While I was fascinated with the Acer, it wasn't available on Amazon as yet and I had no idea of the cost. The nimble little Dell was though and I got it at a great price! I've only had it about six days now, but I must say I am impressed. It handles modern games and HD videos pretty well (kudos to Intel for the integrated graphics), multi-tasking is a breeze (thanks to the Intel i3 core processor), does not run hot no matter the stress I put it through, easy on the eyes (in terms of looks and reading), a 250GB hard drive (I opted for that, other models ship with 500GB) and the price is quite fine. I must say though that the glossy outlook while sexy, is indeed a fingerprint magnet and you'd be best off obtaining one of those micro-fiber cloths to keep it shiny. Other than that, it is a great purchase and one which I highly recommend.
new Dell 14" laptop June 24, 2010
Donald Nyberg (Redmond, WA)
This laptop is very nice looking, very fast, and is what I expected. Reasonable price also. When I purchased the 3 yr warranty, I thought that this was a Dell warranty so we will see how the Square Trade warranty handles things.
Nice Portablity, Attractive Design June 17, 2010
J. Voyles (Fort Collins, CO)
Bought mine from Staples for $599. Specs are i3 M330 @ 2.13 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 500GB HD, 14" LED-BL LCD @ 1366 x 768, DVD-R/W
Originally started looking at the ultra-portable laptops (ie. T4400 Pentium & AMD VISION processors) from HP and Toshiba. The kind of laptops with no optical drive and promises of up to 8 hours of battery life. I am glad I decided to go with the Inspiron 1464. The ultra-portables averaged around 1.2-1.4 GHz compared to the 2.13 GHz processor of the 1464. Not to mention the 1464 sports an i3. I have been using the 1464 for a few months now with programs such as Eclipse, Firefox, [...], and DVD Shrink. This processor works really well for basic productivity. I have made it through a 2 hour movie on a full charge, I wouldn't expect any more than that.
Pros:
- i3 - 2.13 Dual Physical Cores = 4 threads (not positive what that means, but it sure means it's fast)
- Beautiful design
- Nice size and weight
- optical DVD-R/W
- keyboard has nice feel
- LED screen (back-lit by LEDs)
Cons:
- Too shiny, attracts fingerprints, screen shows lots of glare
- Have found that USB ports can get in the way at times
- touchpad (fingerpad, mousepad) works perfectly 85% of the time, struggles with scrolling
- backlight has mind of it's own while connecting/disconnecting power (fails to maintain user settings)
- backlight has mind of it's own when UAC (User Account Control, when changing/installing software) dims the screen
- No dedicated GPU (on most i3 models, i3 processors have built-in GPU), this limits graphic's capabilities
Overall, I am satisfied with my decision to go with the Inspiron 1464. Windows 7 is a nice OS but I have yet to realize the full potential of the 64-bit option.
Great college notebook May 28, 2010
Jeff
My parents bought this for me for college. I love the size and the fact that I can easily carry it to class without an overpacked, heavy back pack. It has also been able to handle all of the presentations my professors send me as well as the note taking I type in class.
 problems with the battery May 21, 2010

1 out of 4 found this review helpful
hello dear costumers
dell is really honorable company and generally has good products.
in my specific case, I recieved a PC with a problem in the AC adapter or/and the motherboard
which cause a discharge of the battery.
as they say here the battery lasts for up to 4 hours, but as I saw and as the costumer service of the company told me
a 6-cell battery should stand for 1-2 hours.
you should take it into account.
nevertheless, the operation of the PC is fine,quiet and well designed. the price is very low and it is getting down each month.
