Pros and Cons

Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1

Strengths

The chassis rigidity just isn't quite there, but it's acceptable.
The keyboard switches themselves are fantastic, and for the most part, it is really, really good.
It is really, really close to being amazing. Might upgrade it to an A minus. Just give it an A minus minus.
It has a tiny bit of detail on this, even though it's completely black.
Dell has in the past neglected their webcams, but this one right here seems like they have changed that.
The battery is exceptional, and able to get us 8 hours and 48 minutes of battery life.
This thing comes in at $850 as spec, and it's on sale for $699, which in my opinion is a fantastic buy.
It's competent enough at everything that I think I can recommend it.
