Facts about inspiron 27 all in one or dell new inspiron 27 7000 all-in-one. All-in-One (AIO) desktops are ideal for when you're short on space or just want a clean desktop. While the PC market continues to fight an uphill battle, premium AIOs, including Apple's iMac lineup, remain popular with those who need a serious desktop machine for heavy work such as video editing. Today we bring you the Dell Inspiron 7700 All-in-One.

Two configurations are currently on sale in Europe and we have to review the top end which costs 2000.84€. Let's see how it fares.

Dell Inspiron 7700 All-in-One Design and manufacture

Installation of the Inspiron 7700 All-in-One once you take it out of the box is fairly simple. The base for the stand is the only thing that needs to be attached, and all you have to do is tighten a thumbscrew. In the box, you also get a wireless keyboard and mouse that connect to the AIO via a single USB adapter.

A power cord is the only cabling you have to deal with, and it can be run through a hole in the neck of the stand. The 330W external power block is massive, but this size can't be avoided when powering desktop components.

Thanks to its aluminum gray finish, the Inspiron 27 looks very sleek. Even the back is well designed, and complements the overall look very well. The PC isn't too thick when viewed from the sides, and there are ventilation openings on the top and bottom to let air pass through. The screen tilts five degrees forward and about 30 degrees back, but its height is not adjustable.

The screen has fairly thin borders all around, which gives the AIO a very sleek look. An anti-glare coating helps cut out most of the glare from indoor lighting, so we didn't need to maximize brightness most of the time. The 27-inch display has 4K (3840×2160) resolution and is of the IPS variety, which means colors are accurately rendered and viewing angles are wide.

We didn't notice much color shift when viewing content at extreme angles. Due to the thin borders around the screen, the front camera system should have been located below the screen.

We also have the two front speakers below the display, which offer a total output of 10W. They are complemented by a rear-mounted subwoofer pumping out from 5W. The HD camera on the front is accompanied by two IR emitters and an IR camera that are used in conjunction with Microsoft's Windows Hello authentication feature.

Just below the display, towards the right, we have a button to switch input sources and the power button. However, there are no manual brightness or volume controls. To the left of the speaker, we have an SD card slot, a USB 3.1 port and a combined headphone and microphone port.

The rest of the physical connectors are located on the back of the PC. Right next to the power input is a Gigabit Ethernet port and an audio output jack. The rest of the connectors face the rear and include two USB 2.0 ports; three USB 3.1 ports; a USB Type-C (USB 3.1 Gen1) port; an HDMI input for connecting another source; and an HDMI output for a second monitor or projector.

Dell Inspiron 7700 All-in-One Specifications and Features

With this version of the Inspiron 27 7775 AIO (inspiron 27 7000 all-in-one), you get a desktop AMD Ryzen 7 1700 CPU, which includes eight cores for a total of 16 threads. Along with this, you also get 16GB of DDR4 RAM running in dual-channel mode. Graphics duties are handled by a discrete AMD Radeon RX 580 GPU with 8GB of GDDR5 memory.

It's good to have this option as most AIOs don't allow you to upgrade anything, at least not easily. However, despite this convenience, Dell says that opening the back on your own will void the warranty, so you'll have to take your Inspiron 27 to a service center to have anything upgraded.

Dell ships the AIO with Windows 10 Home, along with a 15-month subscription to McAfee antivirus and a full copy of Microsoft Office Home and Student Edition preinstalled. There's also the usual bundle of preinstalled apps from the Windows Store, which you can remove if you don't need to. You also get Dell's software utility (dell inspirion 27), which periodically checks for and downloads system drivers.

Dell Inspiron 7700 All-in-One: Performance

The overall Windows performance is very good. The ample amount of RAM and the speed of the SSD ensure fast startup, and applications also load quickly. Text on the screen is crisp, which can be seen when browsing the Web or even working on Excel sheets. The large screen is ideal for multitasking with multiple windows open on the desktop, without having to resize them too much.

The webcam captures video and photos at an awkward angle due to its location below the screen, but it has a wide field of view so it fits easily across the entire upper body. Windows Hello works very well, although we found that if the screen is tilted forward, you'll have to bend down a bit to get your face recognized.

We tried using the Inspiron 27 or dell inspiron 27 7000's HDMI video input functionality, which allows you to use the All-in-One as a display, and it worked fine. We connected an Xbox One X and were able to play at native 4K resolution. Audio has to be sent to external speakers using the audio out port next to the power input, as it won't play through the Inspiron 27's own speakers.

There is also a small caveat when it comes to using another video source, which is that the PC needs to be on and running Windows. Even if the PC goes into sleep mode, the video is interrupted. This is a useful feature, but it doesn't allow you to use the AIO screen as a standalone monitor to extend its life after the next upgrade, or if the PC is down for any reason. That said, it's still nice to have this option, as most AIOs won't let you do this.

Dell Inspiron 7700 All-in-One

The speakers get really loud and the audio quality is very good. You can adjust audio levels and microphone sensitivity through the Waves MaxxAudio Pro software. Gaming works very well. The Radeon RX580 is VR ready and handles most 3D games very well in the native 4K resolution of the display.

In Rise of The Tomb Raider, with the settings set to Very High at 4K, the built-in benchmark only returned 23.6 fps. Things improved slightly by switching to High preset where we got 29 fps. At 1080p using the Very High setting, we got much smoother frames averaging 57 fps. The best balance we found was using 2560×1440 with the Very High preset, with which we averaged 35-40fps.

We were also pleasantly surprised to see the Inspiron 27's GTA V looking very good, with all graphics sliders maxed out and most eye candy turned up (except for anti-aliasing, which was off). The built-in benchmark averaged 33 fps while during the actual game mode, we were able to get around 34 fps, which is still pretty smooth. This was all at 4K resolution.

The exhaust fan is easily audible when gaming, and if you don't have headphones on, it can be distracting. We also ran some synthetic benchmarks and scored 5047 points in 3DMark's Fire Strike Extreme test, while in PCMark we got scores of 3636,5618 and 3012 in the Home, Creative and Work suites respectively.

The included keyboard is of average quality and not the best when it comes to prolonged typing. However, we did like the mouse, which offers good ergonomics and works well on most surfaces, inspiron 27 7000 all-in-one desktop.

Conclusion

The Dell Inspiron 7700 All-in-One, (inspiron 7700). All-in-One (dell inspiron 27 7000 all-in-one) comes at a strong price and is backed by a three-year warranty. As a premium AIO, it is quite feature-rich and offers very good multimedia and gaming performance. As a bonus, we like the fact that components can be easily swapped out if needed, and you can use the 4K display with another source, such as a gaming console as well.

If you don't need all this power, dell all in one has a tamer version of the Inspiron 7700 All-in-One at a price of 1430.83€. With this variant, you get an AMD Ryzen 5 1400 CPU,8 GB of RAM, a Radeon RX560 GPU and a 27-inch HD display. You also lose out on the SSD, but the rest of the features dell all in one 27 are the same.

If you're thinking of going the DIY route, building a desktop with a configuration similar to the one we tested today wouldn't really save you a ton of money. Upgrading components would be easier, sure, but getting the look and feel of an AIO would be next to impossible. We would have liked a better quality integrated keyboard, and the webcam placement could have been more natural, but overall, this is a pretty solid AIO PC that offers good flexibility and performance, dell inspiron 7700 aio desktop.
