🚀 Dell Precision 3520 Mobile Workstation Specifications

Xeon E3-1505M v6 | 32GB DDR4 | 1TB SSD | Quadro M620 | 15.6" FHD IPS

This is a great laptop for anyone looking for a budget friendly PC.

It crushes Autodesk AutoCAD and AutoCAD Civil 3D applications as well as Sketchup. Keep in mind that this is a mobile workstation and is suited well for professional CADD.

Battery doesn't stay charged long - could possibly use a new one. When we used it it was mostly plugged into a docking station for power. Dell's BIOS/battery status page indicates it is in "fair" condition. Other than lower than expected unplugged time, this an outstanding laptop. I'd rate a 6.5 out of 10.
