The 11.6-inch laptops that constitute Dell's Inspiron 11z range sport ultra-low-voltage Intel processors, which qualifies them as thin-and-light ultra-portables, rather than just largenetbooks. The range starts at about £350. For this review, Dell supplied us with a mid-range model which, with an upgraded battery, costs about £440.
Slim, solid and stylishDell can knock together a good-looking laptop when it wants to. The 11z is a stylish machine, and the standard black livery can be offset with a choice of different lid colours. The white lid that we saw is rather fetching.
For this kind of money, you'll only get a plastic case, but the 11z feels solid enough. At 26mm thick, it's pretty slim, although the six-cell battery that we were supplied with pokes from the underside by another 22mm. Even so, we can't really knock the design. It's easily one of the better-looking low-cost laptops we've reviewed.
A common complaint about 10.1-inch netbooks is that their 1,024x600-pixel screens limit what you can do with Windows, but the 11z's 11.6-inch, LED-backlit display suffers from no such problems. Its resolution of 1,366x768 pixels is more than enough to show a full-width Web page, and tall enough to accommodate any dialogue box. The screen's image quality is excellent, too.
