The forged aluminium design with diamond-cut beveled edges is just one of the premium features you'll find on the Inspiron 17. It's easy on the eyes and feels great to hold. The backlit keyboard with 10-key numeric keyboard makes working in low-light environments much easier - it spoils you for anything less. And the edge-to-edge touch display uses Corning Gorilla NBT Glass to complete a truly breathtaking laptop. Waves MaxxAudio Pro brings crisp, rich sound to your favorite music, movies and videos.
