Smart performance in a slimmer new design
The new Inspiron 15R with 6-cell battery features up to 4th Gen Intel® Core™ processors in a sleek design that’s 17 percent thinner than the 2011 model. So you get all the performance you need, with a little more room in your bag for the other things that matter.

Task master
Whether you're streaming blockbusters or setting a new high score, Intel® Core® processors enhance your experience. Upgrade to 4th Gen Intel® Core™ processors for long battery life and stunning graphics and get the most from your favorite Windows 8 apps and games.

Travel pro
At about 1" thin, Inspiron 15R slips easily into a travel bag when you need to take your work with you. No wonder it’s our most popular size.

Style for miles
Brushed-aluminum finish and rounded — you’ll feel more sophisticated just looking at it.

More fun with touch
Windows 8 was designed especially for touch — the fluid new interface gives you the look and feel of a tablet, but with the powerful capabilities of a PC. Swipe and tap through your morning news. Zoom in and out of images using gesture. Anything you do on the Inspiron 15R feels more fun when you add the optional 15.6" touch screen.

Designed for the real world — because that's where life happens.

We want you to love your new PC for years to come. That's why we test every Inspiron laptop for reliability not just in the places where you expect it, but for the open road ahead.

 

  • Turn up the heat: From locker rooms to locked cars, we test Inspiron laptops for survival in harsh short-term heat conditions of up to 65°C/149°F.
  • Everything hinges on it: We test Inspiron laptop hinges to ensure they still feel tight, even after opening and closing the lid 20,000 times.
  • Keys to success: We test commonly used keys for 10 million keystrokes and touch pad buttons 1 million times with no failure. So go ahead, finish your novel.
  • Buttoned up: No matter what you set your power and multimedia buttons to do, we've tested them all to survive up to 40,000 pushes with no problems.
  • Twist and turn: Call us excessive, but after twisting every Inspiron laptop's base and lid more than 25,000 times, we can assure you the parts inside are well protected.
  • Always a good fit: You'll probably never need to remove and reinstall your Inspiron's battery 750 times, but you can rest easy knowing that we've tested even that.
