Pros and Cons

Dell Inspiron 13 5320

Strengths

The design is sleek, compact, and nice with a quintessential D design and an aluminium build all around.
It has almost all the ports you need in a work laptop, including USB-A, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, and HDMI port.
The laptop feels very solid and durable despite being lightweight at 1.25 kgs.
The 1080p webcam is better than most 720p webcams out there and has a physical privacy shutter.
The high-resolution QHD+ screen looks sharp and crisp with accurate colors (100% sRGB coverage) although the matte finish impacts color vibrancy slightly.
The Dual speakers get pretty loud and have good detailed output, making them suitable for multimedia use.
The laptop's performance is consistent whether on power adapter or battery life, handling casual to intensive work without issues.

Weaknesses

There is minor flex on the keyboard but it doesn't affect overall usability.
The keyboard key travel is a bit low but the key caps are well-shaped and there is ample space between keys.
The display's matte finish affects color vibrancy slightly, although different display modes can be chosen in the Dell CinemaColor app.
RAM is not upgradeable, only the SSD can be upgraded to 1 TB.
Battery life ranged between 6-8 hours which might not be enough for some users.
The laptop's design while sleek and portable, may not stand out in terms of innovation or originality.
There are some pre-installed apps that might not be useful to everyone, like McAfee and SmartBite.

Dell Pro 14 Plus

Strengths

Solid build
Nice new minimalist design theme
Modernized IO ports
Performance is very competitive
Modernized thermos have also improved significantly
Games like Counter Strike 2 comfortably run north of 60 frames per second
Thermals were the key problem with Dell laptops in the past however ever Dell really has turned a new Leaf over here
Self-upgradability is very limited, but you can technically upgrade the m.2 drive

Weaknesses

Cheap skate moments where Dell has some questions to answer
QA issue on my device slightly wobbling at a certain degree of tilt with the actual hinges
Display is unacceptable with full HD display and 60 HZ refresh rate at 300 nits peak brightness
Plastic surface trackpad is cheap skate moment
Limited upgradability, only m.2 drive can be upgraded
Fan noise not so much, hits mid 60 DB when anything moderately intensive
Speaker quality is not top of their mind and experience is pretty flat
Current MSRP pricing is expensive and justifies a $25% cheaper price tag
