Dell - Inspiron 1545 is a grate product. Price is very reasonable.
Its configurations of
Intel Core Duo with 2.3 GHz
2GB RAM, 320GB – Hard Drive, DVD+/-RW, web-cam, glossy 15.6 inch hi-def wide-screen LED display with a 1366x768 resolution is grate

Low heat emission when compared to other products.

But something missing in this is Blue-tooth feature..
and the wide border area is not look nice..

Generally Dell - Inspiron 1545 is grate product (Only absence is Blue-tooth)
I already bought 3-4 machines and expecting to order few more very soon, im very much confident with this..

This is another great laptop IF BOUGHT WITH THE RIGHT CONFIGURATION. I personally love Dell computers and probably always will. That does not keep me from being honest in their failing also.

That being said.....

Let us dig right into the cons.

Never buy ANY computer with a Celeron CPU, trust me, just don't.

They decided on this one to only have one external indicator that doubles as a power,low battery light. No hard drive light or key function indicators. HUGE miss on this design. Sure, it looks cleaner, but sadly computers can still freeze and lock up during tasks and would be nice to know if the hard drive was still reacting or just idle.

I see 3 USB ports becoming the norm. I will gladly pay the extra 2 bucks to add a 4th port. Myself I use a wireless mouse and keyboard, that takes up 2 right there. One extra port would be handy so often in my case.

No HDMI port though in the 1525 there was one. Not a deal breaker but more functional as digital tv is now commonplace.

The high gloss black is cool but picks up every print that touches it and your constantly wiping it down otherwise it looks pretty nasty and beat up. Something a little surface texture could have easily remedied.

Now the good.

VERY nice screen. colors are deep and not washed out like I have seen on some. I am able to use a slightly lower brightness the image is so good.

Like I said starting the configuration is important. i recommend nothing less than a 2.0 Ghz or higher CPU, Pentium or Dual Core.......NEVER Celeron.

Good sound. I owned a 1525 before this and the sound is noticeably louder from the 1545 which makes watching a movie or stream much better of an experience.

If you can grab one of these between 200-400 you will be getting a good deal if the CPU, memory, and hard drive are of decent specs.

Starting with the looks - I like how it has a sleek design, very nice, and sturdy in my opinion. Compared to the past Inspiron's - This one's beating it by far. I like the integrated webcam.. The quality is pretty nice.

As far as anything else goes - Using the laptop is a breeze. Watching movies is pretty smooth both online and films downloaded to my comp. I haven't tried burning CD's/DVD's yet so I can't give a review on that.

The only thing that bothers me is that the F keys I have to switch functions every so often. Holding down the FN key to change the volume and/or make the screen bright or not. Which is kind of annoying but I'm taking getting used to.

The sound feels nice with headphones on. Playing it aloud on the speakers aren't too bad considering it is a laptop.. So not much is expected there.

Hope for it to last for a good few years. :) *Crosses fingers*

I LOVE this laptop! This is the second Inspiron 1545 I have purchased from Ebay, the first was for me and the second one was a gift for my sister both have worked amazingly! They are fast and efficient for exactly what we would use them for, which entails Internet surfing, chat networks(facebook etc), watching videos or movies, listening to music and connecting with Itunes and things like that. Overall A+ on this laptop, I was very impressed. One of Dell Inspiron 1545 came with a webcam and the other one did not, but the one with the webcam, the webcam worked wonderfully and on the other without the webcam, we were able to easily attach a webcam provided by the previous owner. Both laptops were in exceptional condition we are very very pleased with the purchases.
