I’ve been hunting the best laptop deals at TechRadar every week, so I have a good idea of ​​what to expect from a $500 laptop. However, Dell has just surpassed those expectations with a fantastic deal on this Inspiron 15.

With $200 off the usual price, you can now grab a Dell Inspiron 15 for $499.99 (opens in new tab) That comes with an AMD Ryzen 7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. This trio of components is almost never seen in a laptop at this price point and combine to give you a powerful machine for all your computing needs.

The Dell Inspiron 15 is a solid everyday laptop that comes in multiple configurations. We haven’t reviewed this particular model here at TechRadar, but Dell units are widely considered to be some of the best laptops you can buy and regularly feature in our best laptop buyers guide.

If you’re on a reasonable budget, you won’t be disappointed with this outstanding offering from the latest range of Dell laptop deals.

The Ryzen 7 processor and 16 GB of RAM inside the Inspiron 15 ensure fast boot times and quick application load times. And if you have multiple browser tabs open like I did, that extra power won’t slow down your device.

With the 512GB SSD, there’s also plenty of storage space to give you quick access to all your files and apps – and plenty of room for photos, videos, downloads and more.

And when you’re not working, the 15.6-inch Full HD display with its smooth 120Hz refresh rate gives you a satisfying experience whether you’re just browsing the web or watching TV shows and movies from your favorite streaming services.

Overall I think it’s by far the best laptop deal you can buy right now. If you want to compare it to a few other options, there’s more in Dell’s latest sale (opens in new tab) or check out some of today’s top laptop deals just below.
