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.
Disconnect all devices including the keyboard, mouse, and external monitor.

The battery LED blinks 2 times with an Amber color, followed by a pause and then blinks 3 times with a White color. The battery LED will pause for 3 s before the next cycle repeats itself again. Each LED blink takes 0.5 s. 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

So yeah, there you have it – not the greatest. If all you do is surf the internet or edit documents, you probably won’t even notice. Especially if you’re coming from a screen that is of equal color quality. But if you’re coming from a laptop with at least 100% sRGB, you’re going to notice the muted colors right away. I got 73 words per minute on the 10fastfingers.com typing test, which is a bit under my current 78-wpm average. I made plenty of mistakes due to the unique spacing of the keys. 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. Other than that though, the specs are very similar on paper: same battery, similar dimensions, familiar chassis, and practically the same IO. The standard model also has 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, similar to the last model I reviewed. The inputs and the speakers have been updated, 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.
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.In Quiet mode, the TDP pretty much hangs out at 17-18W and slowly drifts down to 15W over a long time for sustained loads. Here were my results: Kingston memory cards for your Dell Inspiron 16 (5625) Laptop are supplied with a Lifetime warranty for complete peace of mind for the user.
There are three power profiles to choose from, Ultra Performance, Optimized and Quiet, each with different power caps and fan settings. Quiet mode is not as Quiet as I’d expect, as explained further down in the article. 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.The laptop is pretty symmetric with no surprises in weight distribution. For a 16” laptop, this Inspiron is very easy to handle and is a pretty reasonable weight to carry around in any position, even if not as light as other options. Even grabbing the laptop from the corner while it was open, I didn’t detect any strange creaks or notice any flex. 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: The overall design of this 2022 Inspiron 16 shares a lot of similarities that I saw in the Inspiron 15 model last year. The chassis is almost entirely made of aluminum and the design is basically your typical thin and light notebook that would have been called a premium design 6-7 years ago. Now it’s the norm.
