Similarly to last year – it is blazingly quick to detect your fingerprints. In the top right corner of the keyboard, you can see the power button, which doubles as a fingerprint reader.
We are also happy with the amount of key travel it offers, however, some keys appear to be mushier than other – it is a bit odd, but this is not as frustrating as the Page Up and Down keys, which are placed right above the left and right arrow keys. Additionally, it has a backlight and the keycap size is pretty big. As we mentioned, Dell no longer uses the black colored keycaps, but rather paints them the same color as the base. You can check the prices and configurations in our Specs System: To be honest, they don’t offer much performance improvement over the Whiskey Lake chaps, but the improved 14nm process should provide a better battery life, thanks to its optimization. On the hardware part, the new boy comes with the 10th Generation Comet Lake processors, which include the Core i5-10210U and the Core i7-10510U. Other than that, there is a stylus included inside the box, which may or may not be optional, depending on your region. What else is new about this device? Well, the hinge is now one component, that offers some leverage when you open the notebook in an upright position. Gone are the black keys on a silver deck, and while the fingerprint reader remains embedded into the power button, it is now rectangular, rather than circular, and it sits on the same row as the function keys. For 2019/2020, Dell has completely redesigned its Inspi2-in-1 model.
