Performance scores
The Broadwell Twin: Same Shape, Slightly Better Numbers
The Dell Inspiron 13 7348 is the 7347's sibling with a Broadwell i5 5200U and the same 8 GB of memory. No listing price is recorded. The sheets are near-identical, with this one marginally ahead where it counts: performance 28.88 versus 28.28, and value 5.1 versus 4.25.
Where it holds up
Graphics reads 45.85 — above-median for the class — and gaming follows at 71 in the high band, the familiar reading this era's integrated graphics earns on the scale. Portability posts 69.1 in the high band, and the verified minimum-bar passes carry over: Grand Theft Auto V, Rainbow Six Siege, and Civilization 6 all clear their minimum settings on this record too.
Where it falls short
Reliability is the flagged weakness at 7 against a class median of 54 — marginally better than the 7347's 5, still near the bottom of the batch. Memory at 8 GB is 75% below the class median of 32, office reads 10.38, modeling 23, engineering CAD 18, and photo design 29, all low band. Performance at 28.88 remains low-band in absolute terms; the edge over its sibling is real but small. The two twins bracket the same trade: era hardware, verified minima, and reliability readings near the bottom of this batch — buy either only at a twin-level price.
Price and depreciation
No listing price is recorded and no depreciation curve is modeled for this entry.
Alternatives to consider
The Inspiron 13 7347 is the same chassis one CPU generation back with nearly identical readings. The Inspiron 13 5368 keeps the 2-in-1 form with a newer i5 6200U and 16 GB of memory.
Bottom line
Fairly priced for the class. Between the twins, this one's slightly higher performance and value readings make it the default pick — if either is worth buying at all in this vintage.
