The Dell 16 Plus arrived in 2025 as Dell's mainstream 16-inch productivity laptop, built for students and professionals who want a larger screen without stepping up to Dell's premium lines. It ships under two model numbers, DB16250 (Intel) and DB16255 (AMD), and both share the same chassis and display options while splitting on processor platform. Because it launched recently with current-generation AMD Ryzen AI and Intel Core Ultra chips, it still holds solid resale value, especially in higher-memory configurations. If you are ready to part with yours, pick your processor, memory, and condition in the selector above for an instant cash offer, or see how the process works for the full rundown of shipping and payment. You can also compare it against other current listings if you want to sell your laptop for the best return.

Confirm you have the Dell 16 Plus

The fastest way to check is inside Windows. Go to Settings → System → About and look under "Device specifications" for the model name. You can also flip the laptop over and read the model number printed on the bottom sticker, or run Dell SupportAssist, which reports the exact configuration including processor and installed memory.

DB16250 (Intel)

  • Intel Core Ultra 7 or Core Ultra 9, Series 2
  • Bottom-panel sticker reads DB16250
  • Windows System Information (msinfo32) lists an Intel processor

DB16255 (AMD)

  • AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 or Ryzen AI 7 350
  • Bottom-panel sticker reads DB16255
  • Windows System Information (msinfo32) lists an AMD processor

Prefer a visual check? Both variants share the same 16-inch body, so you cannot tell Intel from AMD by looks alone. Confirm through Settings → System → About, or check whether the model has a touchscreen, which is listed separately as a display option and is easy to spot by pressing the glass.

Display & audio

Stereo speakers with a dual-microphone array, tuned for video calls rather than critical listening.

Security

Many Dell 16 Plus configurations include a fingerprint reader built into the power button, letting you skip typing a password at sign-in.

Ports & connectivity

The port layout is standard for a 16-inch productivity laptop, with wireless connectivity tied to whichever Wi-Fi module the configuration shipped with.

Wired
  • USB-C, supporting data and charging
  • USB-A
  • HDMI
  • Headphone/microphone combo jack
Wireless
  • Wi-Fi 6E
  • Bluetooth

Battery, build & more

Battery

Built around efficient AMD Ryzen AI and Intel Core Ultra silicon, both designed with all-day battery life as a priority for this class of laptop.

Software

Ships with Windows 11, with Dell's own utility apps preinstalled for driver updates and system health checks.

Market positioning

Sits in Dell's mainstream tier, between budget Inspiron-class machines and Dell's premium Pro and XPS-style lines. It targets buyers who want a bigger screen and current-generation AI-capable silicon without paying premium pricing.

Accessories

A complete resale package includes the original USB-C power adapter. Missing chargers are common and typically affect the offer.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I find the model number and exact configuration?
Go to Settings → System → About in Windows to see the device name, and run msinfo32 or Dell SupportAssist to see the exact processor and installed memory. The model number, DB16250 or DB16255, is also printed on the sticker on the bottom panel. Matching your real configuration to the picker above matters, since processor and memory tier both affect the offer.
02 How do I tell it apart from the standard Dell 16 (non-Plus)?
Check the full device name in Settings → System → About, since "Dell 16" and "Dell 16 Plus" are separate models with different internal hardware despite similar sizing and design language. The model number sticker on the bottom is the most reliable confirmation: DB16250 or DB16255 means you have the Plus variant. If the sticker shows a different code, use our Dell model finder to confirm which listing matches your machine before you get a quote.
03 Can I sell it with damage, like a cracked screen, weak battery, or a machine that won't turn on?
Yes, we buy laptops in working and non-working condition, and the condition picker above adjusts the quote to match. Before shipping, sign out of your Microsoft account and disable BitLocker if it's active, since a locked or account-tied drive cannot be tested or resold. A laptop that won't power on can still be sold, but be upfront about the condition when selecting it above so the offer reflects reality.
04 What raises the trade-in value the most?
Higher memory configuration matters most, since 32GB units hold more value than 16GB units and cannot be upgraded after purchase. Beyond that, a clean screen and keyboard, a battery that still holds a reasonable charge, and having the original charger included all push the offer higher. Selecting the correct processor and condition tier accurately in the picker above ensures you see the right number from the start.
05 How do I erase it and remove my accounts, and how do I get paid?
Go to Settings → System → Recovery, then choose Reset this PC and select "Remove everything" to wipe the drive. Before that, go to your Microsoft account online and remove this device from the list, and if BitLocker is enabled, suspend or decrypt it so the drive is accessible for testing. Once the reset finishes, sign out of any remaining accounts and shut down. Shipping to us is free and insured, and once your laptop is tested against the condition you selected, payment goes out by PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or check. Full step-by-step guidance is in our data erasure protocols.
