We felt it was important to spend a little time discussing the quality of the touchscreen which Dell have incorporated into the Inspiron One 23 system. Dell have earned a good reputation for creating some of the finest screens on the market and our previous technical testing certainly backs this up.
This panel delivers a solid set of results under our testing procedures, with very little, if any artifacting and refresh blur. Colours are reasonably true, although we noticed a slight tint of red when measured with our LaCie analysis gun. This would be easily rectified with some tweaking via the Windows software and would probably not even be noticeable to most people. The screen definition is excellent and HD video is rendered in a very realistic manner.
There is a noticeable, but not intrusive level of shift and bleeding when testing black definition, with the usual leaks on the sides and corners of the panel. This is not really noticeable when viewing material on the screen and is one of the better results we have seen for a touchscreen. The response time is also quite fast and I noticed no blurring under real world conditions.
White purity is good, with only a 5% off shift balance on the side areas. This rises to around 13% at the corners, although this would not be noticeable under most conditions. HD content looked very vibrant and clean with only slight leaks on the edges noticeable under pure white settings. The bottom corners had a slightly higher leak percentage than the top areas.
Christ that must have taken quite a long time to handle that review Zardon. I thought this system would have sucked, but the information, testing and videos really painted a good all round picture. Its really very impressive. id go for this over an Imac anyday. (well apart from the 2560 resolution version!)
PLANTS V ZOMBIES OMFG ! I need to get this machine, just for that awesome game !!!
You seem to like Dell products here, ive never owned one, but some of your reviews make me consider some of their products. this looks really great, have to say.
This is like a cheap imac with a touchscreen. cant be bad to that. sound quality really impressed me from that video even via a little camera.
I read another review of this last week and was sold then, im doubly sold now. just need to get the cash together for my son in the new year. its not too expensive really, but funds are tight at this time of the year. he will love it. great article thanks.
That was such a great read, seriously. I dont think I could live with a touchscreen, i get annoyed with even a hair on my screen, nevermind slimmy fingerprints all over it.
Hey reviewer, clean your hands, that screen was minging ! 😉
I always buy Dell laptops. they might be bland, but they last forever. well mine always have.
Well I gotta point out that I dont think ive seen Dell ever get a bad review here, but after reading this, it would be hard to say it sucked, so much evidence in favour of the product. I think it looks really good, but it will take more than this to make me love dell. nice review however.
Heh, this is great for a family. I could see the whole family sitting around this having a laugh at the weekends. Nice one Dell thumbs up.
Hey what handheld camera are you using? thats some serious sharpness considering. I need one of them for my own projects. what is it ? pic info shows a Nikon D300S on the images? you using that for videos? if so, im shit outta luck, that costs a fortune.
Dell normally make me go ‘bleh’, but they might have a winner here. looks very well priced. hard to beat that for the price. core i3 would be enough really, 180 quid extra for the i5 and more memory seems pointless.
Very interesting and well documented article indeed. As Dell agents didn’t know, maybe you could tell me which Inspiron One 23 models have the HDMI/VGA/composite ports, please. Only the £879 one? I believe mentioning it in the article would be very useful (at least it would help me very much).
Thank you.
Very good review .
I appreciate the work done.
I have a small doubt regarding this product,
Is Dell AIO useful for softwares like Auto Cad , Solid Works, and MATLAB
