Dell Precision 3520 keyboard test and consumer feedback

Dell Precision 3520 keyboard test

We got the Dell Precision 3520 workstation and it has been working great so far. So, we decided to provide you with some additional feedback about the different components of this high-end laptop and discuss its pros and cons.

Today we are taking a closer look the Precision 3520 keyboard after some real-world tests. The first impressions are positive but not entirely with some minor drawbacks.


The keyboard

To start with, we love Dell laptop keyboards. We totally liked the Dell Latitude E7240 keyboard which is one of the most comfortable we have ever tested.

In Dell Precision 3520 keyboard we have a fully-sized keyboard, including a numeric pad. To be honest we don't like numeric keyboards on laptops and we rarely use it.

Honestly, we wish this keyboard was like the one in the Precision 5510 and 5520 which skip the numeric pad in favour of more space for the letter keys.


Other than that, the Precision 3520 keyboard has good key travel, it is relatively silent and looks durable.

Another thing that we hate is the reduced key size compared to previous Precision and Latitude models. We are not sure why Dell did it but if any from their laptop engineering team reads this, please guys make the keys bigger, just like they used to be 5-6 years ago.

Not sure if this model's keyboard is spill-proof  but we believe we saw this specification somewhere. If you have some info if there is any IP-rating for dust, water or other, please tell us in the comments below.

Verdict
Well, we can rate the Dell Precision 3520 keyboard as one of the good ones we have tested. It definitely is not the best one but it is mostly positives about it that we can share.

In our next series we will be testing the touchpad of the Precision 3520 laptop, so stay tuned for that one.

Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A Full HD LED TV price, specs and review Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A  Full HD LED TV Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A review - today at our consumer blog we are going to take a look at one of the latest 42-inch Sony Full HD TVs which offers great picture quality and will suit best everyone who needs an excellent home cinema experience without 3D effects. Sony Bravia KDL-42W650 is still not very popular around the world and the reason for that is not the lack of quality or functions which this TV is fully packed with but because of the fact that the  KDL-42W650/ KDL-42W650A is mostly going to be sold in Eastern Europe and some parts of Asia. Of course you can find this TV in other countries as well but it is still not presented in huge markets like UK and USA.

Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 First Look Review: Did They Fix the Flaws?

Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3: Flaw Fixed, Efficiency Gained Hey everyone, and welcome back! I was excited to finally get my hands on the third generation of the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 . As many of you know, I spent a good amount of time with the Gen 2, and while it was a solid business machine, there were definitely a few things that needed attention. This is my very first look at the Gen 3, and I wanted to share my initial feedback on what’s improved and what hasn’t. The E16 Gen 3 I’m reviewing here is equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, shared Intel graphics, and 32GB of RAM.
