Happy to see a review on this laptop. It's very rare to see anyone review latitudes, and except for the price I think they give the T480 a run for its money
I just love the way he said "stay tuned".
I love this series of Dell laptop, I have used HP in the same category but I will go for Dell, one very important distinction is the ease of use of the keyboard that set it apart from HP.... the feel is so great and backlight is cool... if one haven't used the two you won't know the difference. I hope HP should go back to the standard mouse pad with normal right/left click, it is a pain not being able to find easily to click for right or left. I would recommend this Dell over HP in the same category. Though I cannot say of any other laptop systems in the same range.
Good one for IT departments, looks even easy to do some maintenance. Nice review as always Dan, video liked as usual.
Thanks for this review , I miss business laptops reviews
Es mi equipo, comprado en 2018 y lo uso hasta hoy, sin quejas. Sólo me gustaría saber cómo limpiar su parte exterior ya que la pintura con el tiempo parece algo sucia. La pantalla es excelente, el teclado magnífico. Sí calienta un poco. Me ha gustado mucho esta review.
It's actually pretty popular in the county where I live.
Would you be free to do a comparison between Latitude 7390 vs XPS 13?
As for Software Developing on the go this laptop is the best bang for the buck. What he didn't mention is, that there are models with IPS Panels and NVMe SSD's too. Got me one with the i7, 16GB, NVMe and IPS and it does the job more than great. I have one of those workstation monsters in the office and believe me. You don't wannt to carry one of those in to the parc to work there a bit.

I do like it. For video editing and audio editing, it does a nice job. As long as I can do more with UI customization on the display of it, then it would be an attention getter especially when connecting it to a vey large and wide LED Screen TV or a table-top portable projector like the In-Focus. Good for presentations in exhibitions.
Good review! Thank you for this one!
i can't wait to grab and feel it .
more laptops should do the track-point, it very useful for heavy keyboard users.
Does good audio come out of the headphine jack and would it not be so good for audio recording? Dont care about the speakers
Damn! those are some nice wallpapers. please post links!!!
When does dell release new processors for this model?

How is your Toshiba holding up? I bought a used Portege Z30 last year and the bottom feels loose and makes some creaking noises when you press on it. Since I haven't owned it since it was new I am not sure if this is just the way they are built or if something is broken.
Great review

How is this laptop compared to HP EliteBook 1030 x360 G3? I have an option to choose this Latitude 7490, HP EliteBook 840 G5 or HP EliteBook 1030 x360 G3. These are the 3 popular models we can have for work. Any pros and cons will be very helpful.

Does the Latitude 7490 have a Lock-slot?

To the reviewer or anyone that have used this: the heat situation was touched upon in the review, but how is it in real world use? Will the machine get warm/uncomfortable using it in the lap when doing browsing/watching videos? Cheers!

I am using E7470, the heat has never been the issue and you can't even hear the fan blowing, so silence.
Other reviewers have said the audio is surprisingly pretty loud and full, so what are you comparing it too?

5:35 "These are SATA SSD drives" I believe you are wrong. Those are NMVe SSDs.
are you sure? 20 hours of battery life?
I heard this 7490 also has heat problem. I trust the community's feedbacks since my Dell Precision 5510 really died on me due to heat management problem just like what the community reported.
My new workplace gave me one of these, 512 nvme, 32 gb ram (sys admin, virtual machines etc), you just feel compelled to work on it, even when you get home you just want to work a bit because it feels like such a joy to use it. Single fan is a bad design though, you have to use a cooling pad or it'll spin its heart out. Also it should have a Ryzen 8 core for my workloads, 4 core is a thing of the past and should die with intel.

I think you should do your research, You talk about the slower SSD drive, but you can upgrade that to the faster PCi SSD at your discretion. See mobile tech review with Lisa Game

I took the Thinkpad T480 over this because of the swappable and bigger battery.
GREAT FOR MS OFFICE - lol But seriously, even for a business laptop there are cheaper alternatives. The only advantage I see here is Dell's additional services - for businesses.
