Inspiron (/ˈɪnspɪrɒn/ Script error: No such module "Respell"., formerly stylized as inspiron) is a discontinued line of consumer-oriented laptop computers, desktop computers and all-in-one computers sold by Dell.[1] The Inspiron range mainly competes against Acer's Aspire and Swift; Asus's Transformer Book Flip, VivoBook and ZenBook; HP's Pavilion, Stream, Envy and Spectre; Huawei's MateBook; Lenovo's IdeaPad and Yoga; Samsung's Sens; and Toshiba's Satellite.[citation needed]
In January 2025, Dell announced its intentions to gradually phase out their existing lineup of computer brands in favor of a singular brand simply named as "Dell" as part of the company's shift towards the next generation of PCs with artificial intelligence capabilities.[2][3][4][5][6][7] The Inspiron brand would be supplanted by the Dell laptop line.[8][6][7][9]
Types
The Dell Inspiron lineup consisted of laptops, traditional desktops, and all-in-one desktops.

Controversy
Script error: No such module "labelled list hatnote". Dell was the subject of a class action lawsuit in 2005 over some of their Inspiron laptops (models affected include the 1100, 1150, 5100, 5150, and 5160). The suit was filed in September 2005, and was officially settled between December 2006 and January 2007, in what is known as the Lundell Settlement.[10] There were a number of design flaws in this model, ranging from flaws in the cooling system of the notebook to a tab on the "C" panel pressing on the motherboard. In all, the design flaws caused the notebook to shut down suddenly or not to boot at all. The suit had been filed in Ontario, Canada; claimants said that the laptops suffered premature motherboard failures caused by overheating shortly after the warranty period had ended.[11]
