Definitely my favorite Business laptop. Been using it for 5 years now and it still is my go to Business machine. One of the best choices I made for my career was getting this computer. To this day it's the one I reach for, even over my M1 Macbook Air and my M2 Macbook Pro as well as M1 Ipad Pro.
That’s great to hear. I just bought a refurbished one fully stocked for $242 with 1yr warranty. I need a quick back up. I wish it came in brush metal 😅
I was thinking of buying this as a last resort. Currently using i3 2nd gen dell Inspiron. I plan on upgrading to a much newer and better laptop,but for the time being I was thinking of buying this at a reasonable price for second hand. I will mainly be using for browsing, some school stuff and some WordPress and light coding. What do you suggest!
just got one of these from amazon for 300can dollars. I got it with i5 6300u, 8gb ram, 256 ssd, and the qhd touch screen. kinda worried that they arnt going to send me the nice one with the qhd toucn screen, but ill find out in a couple days. Its for my gf, her current laptop is basically unusable, being a hp steam with 4gb ram, a dual core Amd bulldozer based cpu, and 32gb of slow storage.
Carbon fiber is the design, not necessarily the material. Kinda how you have a space gray iPhone, when that thing isn't really from space. Or a retina display that isn't actually as sharp as a human's eye level. Haha! :)
hey there man, i was wondering i have same model, but im trying buy a flash drive like around 1tb or 2tb do think it support it? i know depends on brand but think good brand for this laptop i do music studio production stuff and my files adds up and its annoying me but part my hobby. but what's your thoughts? if repeat yourself on video i apologize my time is limited but does it?
Thank you for the video. I have been going through some videos to check out the specifications and confirm if all e7470 come with a back-lit keyboard. The one I have found on sale is an 8GB RAM, even though it is a 512GB SSD. I still wish it came with 16gb RAM. Also, could you confirm if it is possible to fix a sata SSD on this device (not via USB port). Thanks.
@@TechBizmo thanks. I had gone ahead to buy it. As it turns out, it came with a 256gb M.2 SATA SSD. I'm hoping to get a 1TB nvme for replacement, since that will be faster.
Hi, tks a lot after watching your video. I have a small question, what is the maximum capacity of storage does e7470 support? And can i use NVMe SSD instead of SATA SSD?
@@greatspirit oh. Ha. I posted another response in this thread regarding I bought this laptop on the cheap. Ok. Where? I was just laughing with you. Cheers.
Nope! My system works great! You may be receiving that as a result of incompatible RAM. Make sure the type you’re using is compatible with your model. Consult manuals or technical specifications to verify. :)
Is linux support good in this laptop? And is i7 6600u enough for cyber security and some basic programming stuff? Do share your mind plz. Do yu still use it? Em getting a good deal for it.
To get a refurbished Touchscreen 500GB SSD With the optional 16GB Ram, it would be 599, If you were to get all of the specs apart form touchscreen it would be 441$. (Canadian Dollars)

It supports up to 32GB DDR3L SDRAM. Presumably, it should work for android development.

It’s only when you opt for the 2560x1440 Touchscreen LCD. You can buy the displays off eBay and swap it out.

is the 8gb of RAM version with a 256gb ssd and an i7-6600u for 520 dollars worth it?
luv the review btw.
It should go for around 400-450 dollars. Past that amount is way too overpriced.
Sorry i looked at the price wrong its actually 320 not 520
Thanks! :)
I got 2 used with no battery. For $160 for both
Please which is better between dell e5450 and e7470.
E7470 in my opinion. The build quality is better and it looks better.
is it good for programming and photo editing
Which is better dell Inspiron 15 3657 or this one?
Not sure. Never owned an Inspiron 3657
is the touch display working ? and
how much for the used model ?
yes, it's touch and working

Maybe try reseating the backlight cables? You may also just need a replacement keyboard. I doubt it’s anything caused by the main board. :)
