Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Black Edition 2-in-1 (7590) review: This 4K laptop's graphics can't keep up

The Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Black Edition 2-in-1 is a laptop whose biggest selling point is at odds with a harsh reality.

The laptop’s most notable feature is a 15.6-inch 4K display with Dolby Vision HDR, giving it one of the crispest and most vibrant pictures you’ll find on a consumer-grade notebook today. But using this laptop at its full resolution comes with a trade-off: In certain applications, animations and scrolling become choppy as the system struggles to keep up with the demands of its 4K display. The result is a feeling of sluggishness that’s unbecoming for a laptop currently listing at $1,549.

The Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Black Edition 2-in-1 does have other virtues. The stylus groove built into its display hinge lets you carry around a full-sized active pen without any risk of losing it, the keyboard is exceptionally comfortable to type on, and the aluminum design is attractive. Still, those benefits can be harder to appreciate through an occasionally sluggish interface.
