Dell Inspiron 1525

Bought Nov 2008.

Great to start with but battery has been dead for last 2 years. New ones very expensive so I just use mains.

System gets hot and crashes occassionally.

Issues starting to creep in with loading. At time of writing I've been trying for over an hour to boot the thing up!

Seriously thinking of getting all my stuff off this laptop and putting it onto a Samsung, which my family have.

Hi, I am Michael John,and i have purchase a dell Inspirion 1525 Laptop on Aug,2009, and the laptop is so well,but i am so sorry that the dell 1525 laptop battery is not so good, so i must buy a new dell 1525 battery for my new dell 1525 laptop,and we seach the battery from google.co.uk, and we find a website http://www.kingbattery.co.uk, and the price is so good,so i purchase a new dell 1525 laptop battery from this website,

I am happy that i feel the dell laptop is well.

The Inspiron 1525 is THE WORST laptop I've ever had the misfortune of being screwed out of my hard earned money for. Nothing by misery from day one - The wireless card was never compatible with Windows apparently and things just went down hill from there. I replaced the keyboard whilst still under warranty but it crashes regularly despite being kept up to date with anti virus and windows updates etc and I've never installed anything untoward on it. To summarise - THE WORST LAPTOP IN THE WORLD and Dell are scum bags! You'd be better off flushing your money down the toilet as it would be less frustrating and about as much use.

It is good and easy to use.

As a teenager I mainly use my laptop for school work and social networking sites and this laptop has been very good in doing all of that. The hardrive did break after a year but Dell replaced it free of charge :) . The computer also has enough memory for the Sims 2 plus 4 expansion packs which is an added bonus. And after 18months of pretty much constant use the battery life is still pretty good. Overall a great laptop for the price.

I got this "Free" with AOL broadband/phone deal. However after about 18 months I unplugged it from the power and it went off. Put it back on charge, for a while, same thing again. Bough new power supply £40 Maplins, same problem. Found problem is power socket centre pin, put 1cm very thin wire inside centre hole, bent over to an L shape, suddenly charging works fine. However original battery is worn out. Bought new battery (not Dell original much cheaper, better capacity ones out there if you look £60.)Laptop now working as normal. Poor design of power connector. I am a Secondary School teacher and certainly wouldn't buy these for use in a school.

Had this laptop for 18 mths. Not a sniff of a problem.

Dell allows you to customise which I did, increasing the ram and processor. Programmes load fast. Much better than my previous Toshiba Satellite, which needed to be sent back after 3 months, due to cooling probs.

I'm very pleased with this laptop and would recommend another to anyone.

I owned a Dell Inspiron 1525 before and I had good experience with it.Rarely freeze,good performance,bright screen but decent battery.It's broken down after 2 year and I gave it to my brother.A good laptop at all

Good business based latop.I had the dell6400 laptop..still going...used now as back up.The 1525 has been faultless to date and would recommend the inspiron series to any small business user.

if i had to be picky the screen seems a little too easily moved when picking up the latop.

THE SLOWEST IN THE WORLD AND IT WAS BAD EXPERIENCE WITH DELL
