Do customers really like 10-inch netbooks rather than those a bit bigger? Based on Dell’s experience, this seems to be true and correct. The company’s Inspiron Mini 12 models are a testament to the fact. This line is suffering from customers’ snobbery that is why Dell is discontinuing its production altogether. At this time, the 12-inch netbooks are still available at Dell’s outlet stores; they are the last of them. If you are a fan of the 12-inch Mini, now is the time to grab hold of one because they’re going to be extinct pretty soon.
Dell Inspiron Mini 12 Netbook Goes Bye-Bye
This bit of news is not just a rumor. Dell made it known on its corporate blog. And the statement posted there really points out consumers dislike for rather bulky netbooks, meaning the 12-inch ones. “It really boils down to this: for a lot of customers, 10-inch displays are the sweet spot for netbooks.” And according to Chief Blogger of direct2dell blog Lionel Menchaca, “Portability is one of the key points for netbook customers. Larger notebooks require a little more horsepower to be really useful.”
Dell’s blog also advises readers to check out the company’s upcoming product – the Mini 9.
Well, it’s a final goodbye Dell Inspiron Mini 12.
