Why You Can Trust CNET Best Buy sale: Dell Inspiron 2-in-1 laptop is only $600 today
That's a steal for an all-metal design, a modern CPU and a big SSD.
Dell's top-end Inspiron 7000 series boasts an all-aluminum chassis that's thinner, lighter and sturdier than its midrange Inspiron 5000 models, which feature metal lids and keyboard decks but flimsy plastic bottom panels. Best Buy today has an Inspiron 7000 marked down to $600, which places it firmly in the price range of the Inspiron 5000 series. And this isn't some sort of clearance model with older, underpowered components. It packs modern parts and ample storage space and is a great pick for a versatile back-to-school or work-from-home laptop with its $250 discount.
