Dell OptiPlex 3280 All-in-One Desktop PC
The Dell OptiPlex 3280 All-in-One is a compact business desktop that combines the computer, Full HD display, webcam, speakers and microphones in one space-saving system. This refurbished configuration features a six-core 10th Generation Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB RAM, a fast 256GB SSD and Windows 11.
It is a practical all-in-one desktop PC in Kenya for offices, reception desks, schools, clinics, retail counters and home workspaces. Its integrated design provides the functionality of a traditional desktop and monitor while taking up considerably less desk space.
Space-Saving All-in-One Design
The OptiPlex 3280 houses its computer components behind the display, removing the need for a separate desktop tower. This creates a cleaner workspace, reduces cable clutter and leaves more room for documents and other office equipment.
Its compact design is particularly useful in reception areas, customer-service desks, hospitals, schools, retail shops and shared offices where space is limited.
Six-Core Intel Core i5 Performance
The Intel Core i5-10500T processor has six cores, twelve processing threads and a 12MB cache. It runs at a base frequency of 2.3GHz and can reach speeds of up to 3.8GHz when additional performance is required.
This 10th Generation processor is suitable for Microsoft Office, Zoho Books, QuickBooks, Sage, email, web browsing, school systems, hospital software, point-of-sale applications and online meetings.
The efficient 35-watt processor also produces less heat than a standard full-power desktop processor, making it well suited to the compact all-in-one design.
8GB DDR4 RAM with Upgrade Support
The installed 8GB DDR4-2666 RAM provides dependable performance for everyday office applications, online systems and normal multitasking.
The computer has two SODIMM memory slots and supports compatible configurations up to 64GB. Users who need to run larger databases, additional browser tabs or more demanding applications can upgrade the memory later.
Fast 256GB SSD Storage
The 256GB solid-state drive provides faster Windows startup, quicker application loading and more responsive file access than a traditional mechanical hard drive.
It provides sufficient space for Windows, office applications and normal business documents. The storage can also be upgraded using a compatible higher-capacity drive when additional space is required.
22-Inch-Class Full HD IPS Display
The integrated screen is marketed in the 22-inch display class and has an exact active diagonal measurement of 21.5 inches. Its Full HD resolution of 1920 × 1080 produces clear text, detailed spreadsheets and sharp video.
The IPS wide-viewing-angle panel has a typical brightness of 250 nits, a 60Hz refresh rate and 72% NTSC colour coverage. This configuration uses a non-touch anti-glare screen that helps reduce distracting reflections under normal office lighting.
The display is suitable for office documents, accounting systems, presentations, web applications, online learning and Full HD video.
Retractable Full HD Webcam
An integrated retractable Full HD webcam makes the computer ready for Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet and other video-conferencing platforms.
The camera supports video at up to 1920 × 1080 and 30 frames per second. It can be lowered into the display when it is not being used, providing a simple physical privacy feature.
USB-C and Peripheral Connectivity
The Dell OptiPlex 3280 provides multiple side and rear connections for printers, keyboards, mice, external storage devices, networking equipment and other office accessories.
- 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C port on the side
- 1 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port with PowerShare on the side
- 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports on the rear

- 1 × Gigabit RJ-45 Ethernet port
- 1 × DP++ 1.4 display output
- 1 × universal headphone and microphone jack
- 1 × rear line-out audio port
- 1 × SD 3.0 memory-card slot
The USB Type-C connection supports data transfer. Dell does not list it as a Thunderbolt connection or a charging input for the computer.
Connect an Additional Monitor
The rear DP++ 1.4 connection can connect a compatible external display, providing additional screen space for reports, spreadsheets and multitasking.
Please note: The DisplayPort connection is output-only. It cannot receive video from another laptop or desktop, which means the OptiPlex 3280 cannot operate as a standalone external monitor for another computer.
Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Gigabit Ethernet
This configuration includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for wireless networking and compatible accessories. The exact Wi-Fi standard may depend on the wireless card installed in the individual unit.
A Gigabit Ethernet port is also available for offices, schools and businesses that require a reliable wired network connection.
Integrated Speakers and Microphones
The Realtek ALC3246 audio system includes two built-in speakers and two microphones. It is suitable for video calls, training material, system audio and everyday multimedia use.
A universal audio jack is provided for a compatible headset, while the rear line-out port can connect external powered speakers.
