About this deal

All the Kingston memory cards we list against your Dell Inspiron 16 (5625) Laptop are the recommended speed for your Dell Inspiron 16 (5625) Laptop. If you need a memory card for 4K video use the filters on the left to filter out a card with the Class 3 (U3) rating as you will need a Kingston card with minimum write speed of 30MB/s to capture full 4K video. If you need a Kingston card for HD video recording, then simply select a card with a Class 10 rating. You can also use the filters on the left to filter out higher write speeds such as . The higher the number the faster the Kingston memory card will write data to your card to reduce buffering on your Dell Inspiron 16 (5625) Laptop which means you will capture seamless video. So to sum up, I’m not overly impressed with this screen. But it’s not like it’s unusable and this is a budget laptop after all. The fact is, at this price point, there might be similar laptops with better screen choices out there, and I’d look into them if screens are important to you. Hardware and performance The Inspiron 16 comes with a one-year limited warranty. See how Dell performed on our Tech Support Showdown and Best and Worst Brands ranking. Bottom line

A single fan takes up a large portion of the right side of the laptop and is connected to the CPU via two heat pipes. The air intake is taken in from underneath the laptop and the exhaust comes out at the hinge. The power modes contribute to most of the heat generation on this laptop. By switching it to Quiet mode, you significantly lower the TDP that the CPU puts out. You also have slower fans though, so it’s not like there won’t be heat build-up. In other words, I like it. Overall, I think the pros far outweigh the cons of this laptop and the price is certainly justifiable. I found this to be a great typer and I could potentially work all day on this machine, provided I don’t need a graphics card. I did take some benchmarks with a few older games to give you an idea of what to expect, on the Ultra Performance profile. See below for my results: Insert the AC into the computer and a good electrical outlet (not on a surge protector or power strip).This SSD is a 512GB model from Hynix. It’s a budget PCIe 3.0 SSD but it’s fast enough for anything this laptop is designed for. I took some CrystalDiskMark readings in case you were interested. Dell Inspiron 16 5625 comes with only one GPU option which is GeForce MX550 2GB. This is a Dedicated type GPU with 2.70 TFLOPS floating point performance and has a 2 GB GB dedicated memory. Dedicated GPUs generally perform much faster than Integrated GPUs, and are more suitable for graphic heavy applications such as video editing, AI and gaming. Downsides are increased energy consumption and higher costs. GPU Specifications At 301 nits of brightness, the Inspiron 16 is rather bright for its price, but still can’t match the premium average of 391 nits. Meanwhile, the MSI Katana GF66 is dim as hell, at 247 nits, as the Surface Laptop Studio soars to the other extreme at 487 nits. Dell Inspiron 16 Plus keyboard and touchpad These results are pretty good actually. Not the best “graphics” results, but this configuration with the AMD Barcelo processor and Vega graphics is not really designed for GPU-intensive tasks or gaming. Your Dell Inspiron 16 (5625) Laptop can accept Kingston memory cards with capacities of to give you excellent flexibility to store lots of video or images.

Kingston have been manufacturing high quality memory upgrades since 1987 so you can be assured that buying a Kingston memory card for your Dell Inspiron 16 (5625) Laptop will give you complete peace of mind that you have added a high quality memory card to your Dell Inspiron 16 (5625) Laptop.

Here’s what I got in Ultra Performance mode, which allows the CPU to start at 30W for a short burst and then eventually level out at around 25W: And here’s how the laptop compares in this test to other similar models and platforms, including the previous Inspiron 15 Ryzen 7 5700U model.As for the speakers, they’re actually not bad! Not only are they upward-facing, but they also get pretty loud, reaching 78dB(A) with my typical test song. I also ran a bass test and was able to hear sound as low as 30Hz. That’s really low considering there’s no sub! W (~8 h 43 min of use)– 1080p Hulu fullscreen video in Chrome, Quiet mode, screen at 30%, Wi-Fi ON; On the Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Gathering Storm test (Medium, 1080p), the Inspiron 16 averaged 82 frames per second, surpassing the Surface Laptop Studio’s RTX 3050 Ti GPU (66 fps) and the premium laptop average (35 fps). At 3K, it hit 72 fps. It’s a different brand of panel, but it basically has the same specs as before. So the viewing angles are good, but the max brightness is below average and the colors are just poor. Could be worse, sure, but by today’s standards, I’m surprised that they would even make panels like this anymore.

Try to flash the BIOS to the latest version. For more information, browse to Dell BIOS Updates (Refer to the How do I update BIOS using a USB flash drive? section).The last thing you need is a laptop scorching your precious jewels while you’re trying to get some work done, but the Dell Inspiron 16 manages to balance its heat rather well. After streaming a 15-minute YouTube video, the underside hit 97 degrees Fahrenheit, which is only slightly above our 95-degree comfort threshold. Meanwhile, the center of the keyboard reached 92 degrees and the touchpad measured 79 degrees. The machine got the hottest between the vents, at 104 degrees. Dell Inspiron 16 Plus software and warranty This Inspiron 16 model has an AMD Ryzen 7 5825U octa-core processor that caps out at about 4.5 GHz Turbo. This is an AMD Barcelo platform with Vega graphics, so it’s reasonably fast when it needs to be and is also battery efficient, so it suits this model just fine for its intended audience. Don’t expect much in GPU performance compared to the more recent RDNA2 AMD iGPUs, though. The Inspiron scored 254 points in our in-house productivity test which is a very respectable result, only 15 points shy of the Dell XPS 15, which uses the same processor but the slightly more powerful RTX 3050Ti GPU. There’s enough performance on tap to credibly call the Inspiron 16 Plus a budget workstation. It managed to work through the SPECviewperf2020 3dsmax 3D rendering test in 50.6 seconds which again is highly creditable for a laptop in this price range. It runs the Dell XPS 15 very close in the GeekBench 5 CPU test, too.

So after a solid few weeks with the device, I certainly have a strong opinion of it. In short, it’s just what I expected – the same as last year with some slight improvements. About what I would expect for the cost. Let’s dig into the details and you’ll see what I mean. Specs as reviewed– Dell Inspiron 16 5625 On the Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (Ultra, 1080p), the Dell Inspiron 16 scored 34 fps, which is far from the Katana GF66 (63 fps) and the average premium laptop (43 fps). At 3K, it dropped to a measly 20 fps. However, running an Assassin’s Creed game over 30 fps at 1080p is respectable. Dell Inspiron 16 Plus battery lifeI especially liked the Quiet mode results, which is what I used primarily on this laptop outside of running the benchmark tests. It’s a fast-enough configuration with low fan noise. The Dell Inspiron 16’s 720p shooter captures decent color. The blues in my pineapple shirt looked accurate in the photo. However, the contrast is a problem, as a part of my face was washed out by the sunlight and my window looked completely white. There wasn’t a lot of noise, but the picture was blotchy. Do yourself a favor and grab one of the best webcams around to make yourself look as good as I do during my D&D online sessions. Dell Inspiron 16 Plus heat Last year, the Inspiron 15 model got a mediocre screen with washed-out colors, which ultimately was a deal breaker for my wife who does color-sensitive work. But this year they switched to a 16-inch 16:10 panel which is a newer Inspiron 16 form factor – so the screen should be better, right? Unfortunately, no…
