DESIGN

But the hinges holding the display are pretty strong and do not let the screen wobble. In addition to using their device can be converted from the tablet mode to the laptop.
Unfortunately, you may not like it too long access to internal components. To do this, the owner will have to untwist the order of ten screws. And even if you do not immediately get, for example, a battery.
As for the laptop form, then it is not too strong, due to the fact that the sharp angles perfectly coexist with the small rounded design. By the way, the size of Inspiron 5568 does not interfere with daily trips. They are expectable for the 15.6-inch form factor – 382x253x20.2 mm. Weight 2.3 kg and small, to take a laptop with them.

In addition, equipment includes the touch-screen display that supports 10-point multi-touch, so you can use it in as an input device.
Of course, high-gloss finish is not the best option, however, it conveys the rich colors, though often glare.

The webcam in the laptop Dell Inspiron 5568 review has a 720p resolution (0.9 megapixels). It is suitable except for a Skype, relies on high-quality photos taken with it, clearly not worth it.

KEYBOARD AND TOUCHPAD
The keypad Dell Inspiron 5568 review is in the laptop is not too large, while the remaining free space on the sides abounds. However, if we do not take into account the reduced turnout block all normal sized keys, get them comfortable. In addition, when you press the return is very accurate, there is no irritating clatter.

Laptop touchpad is relatively large, perfectly responds to touch. According to a rough surface comfortably slide your fingers, allowing you to perform a variety of multi-touch gestures, such as zooming, scrolling, etc. Incidentally, good sensitivity is seen not only in the central part of the sensor surface but also directly into the corners. It is worth noting that the touchpad is endless, hidden underneath the two mouse buttons working with a short and clear way.
PERFORMANCE
The laptop Dell Inspiron 5568 review which we consider in the review, running on Windows 10 Home operating system in the 64-bit version. It is equipped with a low-voltage Intel Core i7-6500U processor, built on standards of 14-nm process technology. Chip dual-core has a frequency of 2.5 GHz, which rises to 3.1 GHz via Turbo Boost. CPU also has a cache in the third level, is 4 MB. Of course, the performance of this processor is enough to cope with not even the most demanding applications, but with much other modern computing.
Intel HD Graphics 520 – a card that works in conjunction with the processor. It supports DirectX 12, does not use its own memory at the same time, and it takes part of the operative. However, the accelerator can perfectly decode video, copes with the games. For example, Farming Simulator 17 will go on medium settings with a frequency of more than 50 fps. True, this will have to reduce the display resolution to 1366×768 pixels. The Same Rise of the Tomb Raider plays back on the medium with 35 frames per second. Although it is rather an exception, as many other modern toys will be unplayable.
As for memory, then its volume is 8 GB of DDR4-2133 MHz standard (two 4 GB strips). In addition, it provided an optimum capacity for storing files – 1 TB hard drive running at 5400 rev / min.
PORTS AND COMMUNICATIONS

In particular, the right can be seen placed the SD-card reader, USB port Standard 2.0, the power button and the volume key. In addition, there is a slot for a Kensington lock.
At the opposite end are HDMI interface, a pair of USB 3.0, and a laptop charging socket and a combined audio jack (headphone output / microphone input). The front face and the rear panel is completely free.

BATTERY

This is enough for six to seven hours of continuous operation, however, in idle mode, and if a little work with the documentation. But when web surfing or video streaming, with reduced brightness up to 150 cd / m2, it is possible to achieve the duration of about 4-5 hours. Unfortunately, the maximum load of the laptop runs out after half an hour.
CONCLUSION
The price tag $ 1,100 – so now is not the highest cost, if we take into account the notebook, equipped with modern hardware components. In the present configuration has Intel Skylake processor, 8 GB of RAM. In addition, there is provided the display with Full HD resolution and high contrast. Along with this, there is the keyboard light, as well as the ability to transform itself from a notebook into a tablet.
To say that the laptop Dell Inspiron 5568 review looks quite original does not work, its design does not make a strong impression. In addition, Dell Inspiron 5568 can not boast of the too diverse set of ports and powerful acoustics.
