Dell Inspiron 17 7000 Series

If you deeply desire a 17-inch laptop with a reversible hinge, we’re pretty sure this is your only option. Enjoy.

Solid performance. Large touch screen.

Overly bulky in Tablet mode. Odd button placement.

Conclusion As the world's first 17-inch 2-in-1, the Dell Inspiron 17 7000 Series (7778) makes history—but it's unlikely to change the face of the category. The 2-in-1 concept that makes so much sense for smaller laptops is cumbersome when magnified to...

Beautiful display; Powerful speakers; Solid performance

Shallow keyboard; Unwieldy; Blurry webcam

Large display ; Solid build quality ; Attractive design

1080p display resolution only ; Bulky ; Heavy

The first 17-inch convertible laptop is a solid performer and a compelling option for businesses looking to show off their content while on the move. It's just a shame that the Inspiron 17 17000's considerable size and heft will slow you down in the...

The Dell Inspiron 17 7000 2-in-1 offers a spacious 17-inch backflipping touchscreen, discrete Nvidia graphics, an accurate touchpad and a face-recognizing camera -- all in a remarkably thin metal frame.

Poor battery life and fewer features than Dell's 13- and 15-inch hybrid models -- even though this 17-inch version costs hundreds more. The power button, located on the edge, is easy to press by accident.

It's a shame that Dell couldn't shave a little more weight off the new Inspiron 7 7000 Series, as it would have been great to see a 17-inch laptop that you could carry around in a backpack or briefcase. However, it does provide a high-quality...

Fantastic build quality, premium looking. Great sound, decent performance for the most part. USB-C port.

Would have been nice to see additional ports added. Screen wasn't as crisp due to the large size. A bit sluggish at times with 5400 RPM HDD instead of SSD.

While it was a no brainer to add the Inspiron 13 7000 2-in-1 to our list of Top Picks for 2016, unfortunately the Inspiron 17 7000 2-in-1 falls just short in its current configuration. If you’re looking for a durable, premium looking 2-in-1...
