For $1,050, you’ll want to love the laptop you buy. We can really only recommend the Inspiron 14 7420 2-in-1 to those who will frequently take advantage of its 180-degree flexibility and the touchscreen. As a laptop alone, it’s a bit disappointing for the price. If you’re primarily looking for a tablet with an attached keyboard that you don’t have to remember to charge, this could be the device for you, especially if you find it on sale. If you think you’ll only occasionally use your device’s touchscreen, you might like to save a couple of hundred dollars with the MSI Summit 13 Evo Flip, which also boasts 180-degree flexibility, stylus compatibility, and an Intel i7 processor. You could even enjoy a Microsoft Surface Pro 9, which offers similar specs at about the same price (or cheaper) and can be used with a detachable Bluetooth keyboard. If you’re not insistent on having a touchscreen, you can find a much better laptop in Apple’s 2020 MacBook Air M1, which we’ve boldly (but confidently) referred to as “the best laptop you can buy.” If you’re not into the Apple ecosystem, the older Acer Swift X packs a lot of speed into a comfortable body with 9+ hour battery life (and you even get an Nvidia RTX 3050 Ti). Meanwhile, the Dell XPS 13 9315 can hit double the Inspiron 14’s battery life for $1,099. At the time of publication, the Inspiron 14 7420 is on sale for $750 via Dell’s website. At that price, it’s easier to recommend; otherwise, we’d suggest looking into a few other options before making your final decision.

With its solid construction, respectable performance, and moderate price, the Inspiron 14 2-in-1 is a worthy candidate for a student or individual seeking a versatile convertible laptop, questions about the display notwithstanding. Were Dell to offer an alternate display, this unit could be an Editors' Choice candidate. Or a sale on Dell.com (and there are many; prices fluctuate all the time) could make it more of a value on any given day. But even without that, the Inspiron 14 is worth your consideration, especially if you'll use it mostly indoors.

Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 (2022) Review: A mainstream laptop with a lot of value

As I mentioned throughout this review, there are pros and cons to this laptop, and those apply to different use cases, so it’s not for everyone. Probably the biggest factor to consider is the display. If colors really matter to your workflow, then this is not the laptop for you. If you’re looking for something for work, then the Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 is pretty sweet.

60% Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 (7420) review: A compromised experience
Source: Digital Trends EN→zh-CN
The Inspiron 14 7420 2-in-1 takes a step back in performance and battery life from the previous generation while retaining the same subpar display. It’s attractively priced at $1,050, but you’re making too many compromises. While I was able to recommend that last version, this one doesn’t make the cut. It would be worth spending a few hundred dollars more to get a better laptop, or even a few hundred dollars less for laptops that perform as well even though they’re based on older CPUs. Or, you can wait for the $1,000 laptop class to catch up to Intel’s 12th-gen wave.
