OPENED A RETURN ITEM on eBay and sending it back as it is a CPU/GPU Issue and NOT FAULT OF LINUX. So keep that in mind when watching the review, as This may possible be Perfect LAPTOP IF IT IS A WORKING UNIT. <br /><br />I am in search of my PERFECT Linux Laptop, and I start out this video with high hopes. <br /><br />The laptop we reviewed was the inspiron 7620 with the i7 1260p processor. which comes with 12 cores, 4 performance 8 efficiency and Iris XE graphics. <br />The monitor is higher resolution than 4k because it is 16x10 aspect ratio. The ram is ddr4 probably 3200mhz sodimm and is upgradeable. The graphics is mx550. <br /><br />I didn't want just another windows laptop because I have stacks of those already I wanted to see the linux performance on it and I felt like I got way too many dropped frames with this laptop. And it got as high as 60c on hotspots with my thermal imaging camera. <br /><br />The speakers worked that are upward firing. The thing got way too toasty and had bad playback using Zorin 17.3 based on 22.04 Ubuntu LTS<br /><br />Overall it was interesting experience to figure out what is the best laptop. I think the dropped frames came from the laptop overheating. I thought maybe I can remove the heatsink and do PTM7950 to the thermal paste, as it may have dried out but it was covered with some sort of thermal paper, I decided against it, and probably will return the unit for not performing as specified with hitting 60c playing back 4k video and dropping a bunch of frames probably due to thermal throttling. Maybe this laptop would have been okay if that GPU was not heat soaking the cooling fan. <br /><br />WHAT WORKED: <br />ALL the Buttons Worked Out the Box<br />Sound upward Firing worked<br />Video PlayBack was abysmal with too many dropped frames, maybe old thermal paste or incompatibility of Intel chips with Linux, so Would NOT Recommend this laptop for Linux USERS<br /><br />WHAT I recommend FOR LINUX USERS for something that works with FLAWLESS Video playback is this 2-in-1, even though it has only 16gb soldered ram:<br />- DELL 7635 Ryzen 7 7730U 2-in-1 Touch Screen Laptop Teardown Review PTM7950 Upgrade #wisebuyreviewshttps://youtu.be/vgOX4Q0WRKk <br />As I use this laptop now and came to LOVE LINUX, Zorin OS using this platform. Maybe it's a better compatibility with the RYZEN chip which works much better out the box. <br /><br />- See all my videos here: https://www.youtube.com/@wisebuyreviews/videos<br />- Youtube Version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3ehpi2jd68<br />- Bitchute: https://old.bitchute.com/video/nwC51gGjG6gX/ <br />- Brighteon: https://www.brighteon.com/648454f5-2f00-4ede-a4d2-b9c29a5e5eec <br />- Odysee: https://odysee.com/@wisebuyreviews:d/oled-touch-dell-inspiron-7620-i7-1260p-2in1-teardown-and-linux-test-laptop-review-wisebuyrev_video_1080p60_english:f
