The Dell Inspiron 16 7640 2-in-1 is a 16-inch convertible laptop released in 2024, built for students and professionals who want a touchscreen and pen input without paying for Dell's XPS or Latitude lines. Its 360-degree hinge folds flat into tablet mode, and the processor lineup runs from efficient U-series chips up to the Core Ultra 9 185H, so resale value depends heavily on which configuration you have. The aluminum chassis and quad-speaker audio have kept it relevant on the used market well past its launch year. Pick your processor and condition in the tool above for an instant cash offer, or read on to confirm you have the right machine.

Confirm you have the Inspiron 16 7640 2-in-1

The fastest way to check is Settings → System → About, then look under "Device specifications" for the system model name. You can also flip the laptop over and read the Dell Service Tag on the bottom panel, or run dxdiag from the Windows search bar to see the exact processor and system model in one window. The Service Tag is the most reliable identifier if you plan to look up your original configuration on Dell's support site.

Core 5 120U / Core 7 150U (non-Ultra)

  • Intel's non-Ultra "Core" branding, based on the Raptor Lake-U refresh
  • Integrated graphics without the Arc name
  • Entry to mid-tier configuration for everyday use

Core Ultra 5 125U / Core Ultra 7 155U

  • Meteor Lake architecture with integrated Intel Arc graphics
  • U-series power envelope, tuned for battery life over raw speed
  • Mid-tier configuration, a step up from the non-Ultra chips

Core Ultra 7 155H / Core Ultra 9 185H

  • H-series Meteor Lake chips with more cores and higher clocks
  • Integrated Intel Arc graphics, strongest of the lineup
  • Top configuration, commands the best resale value

Prefer a visual check? Look for the 360-degree hinge that lets the screen fold flat into tablet mode, a Platinum Silver aluminum lid and keyboard deck, and a fingerprint reader built into the power button above the keyboard.

  • No discrete GPU on this model

Memory

  • LPDDR5x memory, soldered to the board
  • Capacity is fixed at the point of original purchase, not upgradable afterward

Storage

  • PCIe NVMe SSD in a single M.2 slot

A 16-inch touchscreen in a 16:10 aspect ratio, mounted on the 360-degree hinge that lets it fold into tablet or tent mode. It supports active pen input, with the pen sold separately.

Security

A fingerprint reader is built into the power button on most configurations, giving you Windows Hello login without a password.

Battery, build & more

Battery

A multi-cell battery with USB-C fast charging support. Runtime depends heavily on the processor tier, with the U-series chips lasting noticeably longer than the H-series options.

Dimensions & weight

Heavier than a typical 16-inch clamshell of similar footprint, a byproduct of the reinforced hinge and touch glass needed for 2-in-1 use. Exact weight varies slightly by configuration.

Finishes

Platinum Silver aluminum across the lid and keyboard deck.

Software

Ships with Windows 11 and Dell's own support utilities, including SupportAssist and MyDell, plus a trial security suite that most sellers uninstall before parting with the machine.

Market positioning

A mid-range convertible aimed at buyers who want a large touchscreen and pen input without flagship pricing. Units with the H-series processors hold value best.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I find the model number or exact configuration?
Go to Settings → System → About and check the "Device specifications" panel for the system model and installed processor, or turn the laptop over and read the Dell Service Tag on the bottom panel. Running dxdiag from the Windows search bar shows the same processor and system information in one screen. The Service Tag is the identifier Dell itself uses to look up your original build, including RAM and storage, if you no longer have the receipt.
02 How do I tell it apart from the Inspiron 16 Plus (7630)?
The 7630 is a standard clamshell, not a convertible. It has no 360-degree hinge, no touchscreen on most configurations, and the lid does not fold past a normal open position. If your screen folds flat or wraps into tablet mode, and the lid responds to touch, you have the 7640 2-in-1. The Service Tag or Settings → About panel will also confirm the exact model name if the hinge test is ambiguous.
03 Can I sell it with damage, a weak battery, or an account lock?
Yes, most cosmetic and functional damage is accepted and simply adjusts the quote rather than blocking the sale. A cracked screen, a battery that no longer holds a charge, or a unit that won't power on can typically still be sold. The one requirement is that any Microsoft account link and Windows "Find My Device" lock must be removed before shipping, since a locked device can't be tested or resold. Sign out of your Microsoft account and remove the device from your account online before you send it in.
04 What raises the trade-in value the most?
A higher-tier processor matters most, since the Core Ultra 7 155H and Core Ultra 9 185H configurations sell for noticeably more than the U-series units. Beyond that, a fully functional touchscreen and digitizer, a working hinge with no looseness, an intact charger, and clean cosmetics on the lid and deck all push the offer up. A battery that still holds a reasonable charge helps too, though it matters less than the processor tier.
05 How do I erase it and remove my accounts, and how do I get paid?
First, if BitLocker is enabled, suspend or decrypt it. Then sign out of your Microsoft account and remove the device from your account online. Next, go to Settings → System → Recovery → Reset this PC and choose "Remove everything" so no personal files or apps remain. Once you accept your quote, shipping is free and insured, and payment goes out after testing, by PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or check.
