    Thank you for a thoughtful video on these. I worked in IT and administered a few hundred Dell Latitudes. They are cheaply built - I was amazed how many collapsed trackpads, loose display hinges, failing TPM devices, and failing Thunderbolt ports I saw, especially for the prices they command. However, for the prices they are on the used market and the overall reliability I saw, I recommend them to people over buying a cheap, new laptop from Amazon or Best Buy.

    Watching this on my 5400 i5/16/256/FHD. It is serving me great for the past few years, and it is nice to see it described with such enthusiasm.

    I found you through your surface videos, just stumbled on this one. I bought a 7390 (2 in 1) from Dell's refurbished site a couple months ago. So far, so good, the specs you get for the price are unmatched, in my opinion. My device has an i5 8th gen, 16 gb ram, 512gb Samsung SSD, and a backlit keyboard, which was a major selling point, all for under $300 after tax. Keep up the great videos.

      It's a great machine, glad you're enjoying it, and thank you!

      @@innoiso I'm hoping that some of Dell's detachables show up on the refurbished site, there were some with older processors and not windows 11 upgradable. I noticed they don't include the keyboard either.

    I have a Latitude 7390 2-in-1 as a daily driver-- bout the laptop, a new 60wh battery, and a Dell active pen for $270 total. Great for writing math expressions and sketching diagrams in OneNote. It's also quite sturdy with a nice metal chassis.
    A lot more people should buy used Latitudes (and Thinkpads) instead of sub $300 consumer laptops.

    I got my Latitude 7400 for $300 and mine is fully loaded. Intel i7, 512ssd, 32gb ram, wwan lte, thunderbolt 3, etc all for the same price as a crappy Chromebook.

    I choose Dell laptops and displays. They designed like specially for my requirements. And what about design I love how my carbon Latitude 7320 looks and prefer it appearance over any other laptop. Camera curtain, Ubuntu from the box, weight kilo 180, less than Air. And the keyboard! How really good this keyboard is I've understood when compared with the MacBook Air keyboard.

    This was a good look at the Latitude line. I've been working on them since the C-Series. I still have a full working C640. I've noticed patterns with the Latitude line over the years even though they change up the model numbers every now and then. I typically notice the most issues with the xx00 machines. D600 - Lots of BIOS revisions, E6400 - CPU Throttling and Display latch issues, 7400 - Heat issues, loses communication to SSD. Probably because it's mostly a new platform, but the xx10 model is usually everything the xx00 should have been. The D610 fixed the platform issues and had very few BIOS revisions, the E6410 went to the Core i series, fixed the throttling and redesigned the display latch. The 7410 got a redesigned lid which allowed more clearance under the laptop for better cooling. The xx20 series typically is the experimental line. Dell adds things that usually break (D620 NVidia cards), are ugly (E6420 redesign) or 7420 starts removing ports (USB-A). Then the xx30 (remediation line) tries to fix some of those problems. Then they start over.
    I usually suggest getting the 10 line of Latitudes it's the correction model to the latest platform change, but it's not the add the latest gimmick model to keep people buying new machines.

    I own multiple Dell Latitude laptops, but mostly the older D- and E-series, as well as a few other more unique models. I just love the whole ecosystem of the older series, what with the dedicated docking stations and external media bays.

    I use Latitude 9430 and i really love it. Probably the best Windows laptop i have ever used.
    But having used the Thinkpad X1 previously, i think the keyboard of Thinkpad is still the best i have ever used. Second is MacBook keyboard. ... my Latitude keyboard is fine, but not comparable with those two.

  • @DCookStaVideo

    My favorite Latitudes were the C640, D600, D630, E6410, E7440, 7490 and 7410

    hi there, nice video !
    14:30
    why u r saying "trackpad exp is probably worst than most ... consumer laptops..." ?
    Im currently using Latitude 7490 , and the only bad thing about it is that the surface is not "glassy" like XPS or MacBook Pro models. But the Precision Touchpad is the thing which makes the pure magic ! I enjoy working with the trackpad in 7490, and it is a great exp compared to Inspirons or for example HP consumer models in my local retail ...
    BTW, for those trackpoint "upper" buttons I found a great solution how to bring the life back into it.
    I just re-mapped those buttons into the commands, and now, for example, Im able to adjust volume with it or take screenshots. or decrease brightness.. whatever I need

    Amazing to see your collection of Dell latitude notebooks. I am not vloggers nor TH-camrs but I also currently own and use quite a number of computers. This includes one hackintosh, one Asus ROG-700 (with external water cooler) for gaming, one surface pro x with LTE connectivity for mobile computing when I travel, one MacBook pro M1 Max for animation/3D productions and also a Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra for web surfing while lying on the couch . I just bought a refurbished Surface Laptop 3 for purpose of using it in a vacation journey for 2 months in Europe. There are different computers to fulfill different purposes. How are you using your different Dell latitude notebooks?

    • @innoiso

      That's quite a loadout! I don't use them exclusively, but I often use the 15 inch for video editing because it has a dGPU, a 5411 for my Excel work, the 5410 I've installed Ubuntu on, and the 5400 is my script writing PC because the keyboard is so comfortable.

    Very informative. Thank you. Once a business sells a laptop can they regain access to it via the enterprise security license? If so, how could you rectify that?

    Latitudes really are getting slept on as most "in the know" usually go for ThinkPads instead (and others go for the absolute bottom of the barrel Chromebooks/low-mid range consumer laptops for something cheap)
    My most favourite Latitude is probably a 7490 just for how cheaply you can find it 2ndhand, as well as how well built, upgradeable and performant it is while still looking pretty decent for a 6 year old machine
