thsi was by far more info than i was looking for BUT im now glad i watched the entire video, very very helpful in more ways than one.... excellent job .. and Thank you
9:25 As someone that works on computers and performs hardware upgrades, I like how the screws are readily accessible. This is not the case with my HP Envy 360 (overall a good laptop). With the HP, I had to remove the rubber anti-slip strips to get to the screws, which meant that they do not go back all that well.
Dell has quietly improved their laptops over the years. I still love the customization they offer from the ground up within their machines. This looks fantastic. Working as a systems engineer I always find issues with a lot of PCs but newer Dells and Thinkpads are a cut above the rest. I also LOVE your reviews. Best on TH-cam.
My only critique of your reviews is when you use a photo slideshow to exhibit a screen, the photos often don't take up the whole screen and its sometimes impossible to see where the screen ends and the bezel begins.
Just to 'correct' the 7389 and 7390 is available with normal display or in 2in1 version (360 rotation)... And no fingerprint (only in the non rotation version)
I got confused for a moment, they upgraded the 7380 to the "new Latitude 7390", and the 7389 (this video) to the "Latitude 7390 2-in-1". The non 2-in-1 7390 has been on my eye recently, it seems very good!
If it gets toasty with the 7th generation, wouldn’t the temps and/or fan noise be worse with the 8th gen intel CPUs? It would also be interesting to see throttling with the 8th gen CPUs since you mentioned that a lot of laptops end up throttling the CPUs boost clock due to insufficient cooling
are the edges of the base and the screen rubberized? I don't think I've seen that on any convertible laptop, but I wish they would. It would keep it in place on most surfaces, and protect the rest of the computer much better than just metal or plastic
Great review Lisa, I went and checked it out locally, sadly Dell is charging insane prices. Latitude 7389 - $4,571 AUD for 7600U, 16GB Ram, 256GB m.2 SSD Latitude 7390 - $4,652 AUD for 8650U, 16GB Ram, 512GB m.2 SSD Compare that to: VivoBook Slim - $1,699 AUD for 8550U, 16GB Ram, 512GB m.2 SSD
Are there any other modern laptop like this but with just the trackpoint on the keyboard like the old Lenovo ThinkPad x60? I mean, with no touchpad, just the trackpoint, I really like this feature.
I see your a man of culture as well. But no, sadly..thats why thinkpad lover go beyond normal to mod their old laptop with newer peripheral or vice versa.
Thanks for reviewing. Can you quantify the fan noise? I currently have a Latitude E7240 and the fan is loud, constant and unbearable most of the time. I'm looking to upgrade, but want something that is quieter. Have they fixed this issue with the later gen models? Without hearing it first hand, it's hard to know if this is a buy or no buy. THANKS!
Hi Lisa, thank you for the review. I'm interested in having 7389 laptop but in doubt because of the rubbery feeling. Is it a special coating? if yes, it will peel off in just a few months of usage. I'm a user of inspiron 13 7348 which the rubber coating peel off very very badly for 3 years now. Other users might experienced the same problem with me. No other problem arise though, all is good except peeled coating
For anyone curious , it after 5 years of usage the soft material won't flake or tear. however if your the type of person who likes to put stickers on their laptops it it tought to remove sticker residue
I am getting old, 13" is not going cut the cake anymore for my aging eyes. A 15" is more like it... my Dell 6 years old XPS 16 still works like a clock.
Really nice. Love the latitude rubber finnish. Wish they did the xps 15 2 in 1 like that. Feels like i will dent my aluminium Lenovo every time i put it down :P
What laptop would you recommend for everyday school work, some lighte gaming (ex. Fortnite), video/picture editing,and good picture quality that is fast and looks great but doesn't have a too extreme price tag? Preferably 15"
i don't understand why the latest dell latitudes have such thicker bodies! Dell seems to be sticking most of their laptops to the xps style. Even the newer keyboards feel like the lenovo X1 now. Not sure why, i really would like a new latitude but everything is thicker with smaller space to work with. I have larger hands so i cant really abandon my Dell 7440 yet :(
Hi I need help I am for buying a laptop and I'm seeing the MacBook Pro 15' the Asus Rog Zephyrus and the Razer Blade 14' 4k that you are you think that it is better
I need suggestion to buy a new laptop. I need a laptop for 3d modeling and rendering, so which laptop should I buy for getting best performance under $1300 USD.
How do you feel about this laptop when compared to the Inspiron 13 2-in-1 you recently reviewed? Id love to get the xps 2-in1, but it lacks cpu horsepower..
OMG, business notebook review!!! No consumer shit or kiddie gaming who cant settle for a sec and have desktop ! Wish usb-c docking would be included in the review. Thnks for review.
So...why would anyone buy this instead of a Dell XPS 13? The Dell XPS 13 is the same price/possibly cheaper with the same specs. This laptop offers a dedicated HDMI and USB a which that dell xps 13 doesn't have. The Latitude is thicker/more rugged than the XPS 13. Both offer touch. But to me the XPS is just way better...the XPS 15 for example has a graphics card and the thin bezels are really amazing. This one has discrete mouse which is also cool but not even a dedicated charger port?? Looking for a good answer here because I'm confused.
Latitude are for business users with specifics needs. Also the latitude line up is heavily customable in fleets. For exemple, my company provides us with custom latitudes 72xx to 74xx with our own m2m chipset embedded in addition to 4GLte, upgradable ram and ssd with military encryption grade and the list go on...You can't get that from the XPS line up. And i don't even develop the fact that xps are too fragile on the go compared to more rugged builds. I have a couple of latitudes 72xx, those things are unkillable but i understand why xps are more appalling and way more sexy for regular customer. In business, reliability and security always come first.
Derpy Grump , Of course it is, that's why I'd like to know when is the hardware going to be safe? Is it the 9th generation? Ice Lake? beginning of 2019? Nobody is talking about it anywhere.
No track point again. I don't understand why dell stupidly doesn't put track point in sub 14". I am track point fan by the way. Laptop with no track point is not an option for me.
also, what kind of businessman is a businessman but will shell out a 1000 dollars for an i3 cpu? shouldnt they know what value is? i was going to buy a macbook pro 15 inch with touch bar....then i saw the price for the top version i was going to get, 2800 bucks , looked at the xps 15 from 2017 and told myself thats the one...ill wait until the 2018 edition releases...now i cant buy it because its a damn tablet with a keyboard! Dell has made some of the dumbest choices this CES.
thsi was by far more info than i was looking for BUT im now glad i watched the entire video, very very helpful in more ways than one.... excellent job .. and Thank you

Great video as always, Lisa!

Your camera is stunningly clear and detailed!
My only critique of your reviews is when you use a photo slideshow to exhibit a screen, the photos often don't take up the whole screen and its sometimes impossible to see where the screen ends and the bezel begins.
Wow, those diagonal lines look impressive. This gives me hope for the new xps 15 2 in 1. :)
That all black chassis is cool looking, I hope xps/precision model have this option :)
Ah this is the perfect laptop in my books. Slightly smaller than the ThinkPad Yoga 13" version. Black, square, perfect.
I'm still using my Lattitude E7440, so fun to upgrade and repair when there is a problem.
Good reviews... always waiting for your videos..
Just to 'correct' the 7389 and 7390 is available with normal display or in 2in1 version (360 rotation)... And no fingerprint (only in the non rotation version)
I got confused for a moment, they upgraded the 7380 to the "new Latitude 7390", and the 7389 (this video) to the "Latitude 7390 2-in-1". The non 2-in-1 7390 has been on my eye recently, it seems very good!
the 7380 (7th gen) is the same body as the 7390 (8th gen) in-case you want to do a similar review :)
Great review, I bought 3 based on this.
If it gets toasty with the 7th generation, wouldn’t the temps and/or fan noise be worse with the 8th gen intel CPUs? It would also be interesting to see throttling with the 8th gen CPUs since you mentioned that a lot of laptops end up throttling the CPUs boost clock due to insufficient cooling
thank you , very helpful indeed, you're the best
Review is great as always! I actually ordered the Mi Notebook Pro but I prefer separate touchpad buttons like on the latitude.
are the edges of the base and the screen rubberized? I don't think I've seen that on any convertible laptop, but I wish they would. It would keep it in place on most surfaces, and protect the rest of the computer much better than just metal or plastic
Great review! Will be getting one of these for my next work laptop soon. Seems like a nice bit of kit. I'll miss my XPS 13 tho :(
THe XPS is nice but if you appreciate a good keyboard, the Latitude wins hands down
Another great review.
You all deserve 5million subs.
Great review as always, Lisa. Although I like this new design Latitude, I still want the new XPS13 to be my next laptop.
How do you factory reset the 73 90
Hi Lisa,
Can you review Dell Latitude 7490? Can you see if Dell configured latitude 7390 and 7490 with 25 Watt configured TDP for the CPU? Thanks
Superb review
Great review
Great review Lisa, I went and checked it out locally, sadly Dell is charging insane prices.
Latitude 7389 - $4,571 AUD for 7600U, 16GB Ram, 256GB m.2 SSD
Latitude 7390 - $4,652 AUD for 8650U, 16GB Ram, 512GB m.2 SSD
Compare that to:
VivoBook Slim - $1,699 AUD for 8550U, 16GB Ram, 512GB m.2 SSD
Finally!! A latitude
Lisa, please consider reviewing the latest Pixelbook. Thank you.
Are there any other modern laptop like this but with just the trackpoint on the keyboard like the old Lenovo ThinkPad x60? I mean, with no touchpad, just the trackpoint, I really like this feature.
I see your a man of culture as well. But no, sadly..thats why thinkpad lover go beyond normal to mod their old laptop with newer peripheral or vice versa.
How that keyboard looks in the dark?
Its backlit but buttons are not transparent? My backlit keyboards have transparent legends.
The letter and number maskings are illuminated too.
Lisa, Do you know when the Samsung Notebook 9 15" 2018 is going to be on the shelves and when you are able to review it? Thank you.
Is the 7389 compaitable with an eGPU? Is it thunderbolt 3 therefore 4 lanes?
Any chance you can review the Dell Latitude 9430?
Really professional videos. Keep it up. I hope you reach 1 million subscribers this year.
Thanks for reviewing. Can you quantify the fan noise? I currently have a Latitude E7240 and the fan is loud, constant and unbearable most of the time. I'm looking to upgrade, but want something that is quieter. Have they fixed this issue with the later gen models?
Without hearing it first hand, it's hard to know if this is a buy or no buy. THANKS!
I absolutely love you shirts. Always different and quirky.
Ну а Ред дед Редемпшон 2 будет работать на нём?
Hey this is awesome good work 👍
Hi Lisa! Could you please do a review of the acer aspire GX desktop? Thanks and Have a great day!
Liam McIntyre Are you asking about the GX-281 Ryzen 5 1400 RX 480?
Yes
Liam McIntyre
Welcome to MOBILEtech review.
Liam McIntyre It’s not very good, I have it myself and can’t even play Minecraft at 30FPS
@Donald Kerner Thanks!!
What is best Dell latitude 1790 or Samsung notebook pen ?
what happens if you plug the power into the wrong usbc port???
nothing, it just won't charge
I have recently bought this laptop! I have to say that it has been excellent! Feel free to ask me any questions if you like :)
Hi Ethan, Actually, how is the thermal and any noise issues?
Subedi Subas Hi there, the laptop doesn’t get too hot (not hot enough to burn you), I have never heard any fan noise or coil whine, so it is quiet!!
Thanks Ethan Stenner. I am waiting for my replacement unit because the original came quite damaged.
Subedi Subas oh! Good luck :)
Hi there, after 5 years any complaints?
Budget laptop that can run samsung odyssey mixed reality vr headset any suggestions
Love your t-shirts ❤️
Thanks a lot!
No hard dock?
Lisa can you tell me what the best 2 in 1 with touchscreen and a very good ips panel????????????
There are too many good ones on the market to name just one.
How many of these come with 8gen cpu? Is there anyone that has dedicated graphics that works well with photoshop????????/
Hi Lisa, thank you for the review. I'm interested in having 7389 laptop but in doubt because of the rubbery feeling. Is it a special coating? if yes, it will peel off in just a few months of usage.

@@EdgarGonzalez-ik5zzdoes this laptop have hinge problems because or regular usage of it as a tablet? I'm deciding whether to get 2 in 1 or normal
Does it run Linux?
I am getting old, 13" is not going cut the cake anymore for my aging eyes. A 15" is more like it... my Dell 6 years old XPS 16 still works like a clock.
This model is stupidly expensive in Australia. Equates to $3700 USD for the i7.
Really nice. Love the latitude rubber finnish. Wish they did the xps 15 2 in 1 like that. Feels like i will dent my aluminium Lenovo every time i put it down :P
does this have an internal sound? loud speaker?
you talking about on board speaker? id so yes
Hi Lisa can you do a review of the Lenovo legion y720 ,have a nice day every one 🤗
What laptop would you recommend for everyday school work, some lighte gaming (ex. Fortnite), video/picture editing,and good picture quality that is fast and looks great but doesn't have a too extreme price tag? Preferably 15"
Please review lenovo flex 5 or yoga 520
i don't understand why the latest dell latitudes have such thicker bodies! Dell seems to be sticking most of their laptops to the xps style. Even the newer keyboards feel like the lenovo X1 now.

Hi I need help I am for buying a laptop and I'm seeing the MacBook Pro 15' the Asus Rog Zephyrus and the Razer Blade 14' 4k that you are you think that it is better
Get the rog or blade
I need suggestion to buy a new laptop. I need a laptop for 3d modeling and rendering, so which laptop should I buy for getting best performance under $1300 USD.
Mithun Dutta it would be better to buy a windows destop. But in laptops put you money in macbook.
Buy a desktop, monitor and a UPS. Lols
If you are in the US, look in the Dell Outlet for the Precision line laptops. M3520 or M5510.
Can you please review the Sager NP8952 1070 max q 4lbs laptop?
How do you feel about this laptop when compared to the Inspiron 13 2-in-1 you recently reviewed? Id love to get the xps 2-in1, but it lacks cpu horsepower..
OMG, business notebook review!!! No consumer shit or kiddie gaming who cant settle for a sec and have desktop ! Wish usb-c docking would be included in the review. Thnks for review.
No track point unless you go for the 14" model. (Sad) :(
Always the best T-shirts.
Does it come in 14 inch?
Not as a convertible.
Ok thanks that's fine. 13 is a little small for the office but good for travel.
So...why would anyone buy this instead of a Dell XPS 13? The Dell XPS 13 is the same price/possibly cheaper with the same specs.

If this had a trackpoint it would have been great.
Love your shirt Lisa
Thanks!
I wonder which generation is going to be without Meltdown and Spectre?? I wouldn't buy anything right now.
bwv1044 everything is exposed to meltdown and spectre, including the thing you used to write that comment.
Derpy Grump , Of course it is, that's why I'd like to know when is the hardware going to be safe? Is it the 9th generation? Ice Lake? beginning of 2019? Nobody is talking about it anywhere.
USB ports! 'member those?
No track point again. I don't understand why dell stupidly doesn't put track point in sub 14".
I am track point fan by the way. Laptop with no track point is not an option for me.
Nice laptop ma'am
Quality max 360p ? NANI???
TH-cam is very slow processing today, so it took longer to make all resolutions available.
Up to 1440p now
Nani ??
Techspotter "NANI???" ≈ WHAT?! - IT CAN'T BE - HOW CAN THIS BE.
dangeros31 oh got that...i thought nani = grandmother...we gujaratis speak nani to grandmother
Wow!!!!, i just looked at this laptop in my country's dell website, they ask as much as a macbook pro
you said you'd do the new yoga 920 vs spectre x360 smackdown, when is that coming?
marvellous☺
No PCIe SSD just SATA for this price its really annoying
Why would anyone buy any sort of new hardware until the recent CPU vulnerabilities issue is fully resolved on hardware level.
Youll be waiting 3 years minimum. Otherwise only option is to go AMD if youre so concerned.
Source?
Business doesn't magically stop just because of a CPU bug. Employees still need computers to use...Not everyone is a general consumer.
If they can fix the fan issue then I would be sold and also you said this gets hot mmmm
Your mic is so distracting. Great review though.
Wow, a lefty!
also, what kind of businessman is a businessman but will shell out a 1000 dollars for an i3 cpu? shouldnt they know what value is? i was going to buy a macbook pro 15 inch with touch bar....then i saw the price for the top version i was going to get, 2800 bucks , looked at the xps 15 from 2017 and told myself thats the one...ill wait until the 2018 edition releases...now i cant buy it because its a damn tablet with a keyboard! Dell has made some of the dumbest choices this CES.
Get the 2017 xps 15. You mat find it around $1400
The value is in the ProSupport warranty. XPS owners are stuck with BS consumer treatment while Latitude owners get the fast lane treatment.
Still using my e6420...until I can afford better
Screen aspect ratio : ( still ractangular! Macbook and surface screen ratio is preferred.
Love the shirt but E=IR :-)
remote following come command deputy low considerable carefully always.
Nice t shirt 😄
OMG, just realized that Lisa is a female nerd version of Hickok45!!!
Like the shirt. Funny
HaHa, Linda Slade, one of my favorite tech reviewers. #ResistanceIsNotFutile. Ask Alexa if "Resistance Is Futile" LOL
I want one of those teeshirts
get a shirt that says DONT Be 56k.
*OHM IS FUTILE*
Then play Fortnite?
lenovo people
FIRST
blah blah blah
computers that tiny give me the creeps....i get portability but cmon son, have some dignity
waste of money. super ugly. go for Dell XPS 15 2-in-1 with 8th generation coming up in march ;)
American : Do you honestly care what other people buy?
Eric: u dumb fuck waste of money was for myself. shove that latitude in ur ass IMAO
American : Please stop using your fanboy mentality. You sound like a idiot.
I also really like it
What is up with these fat, ugly bezels? Talking to you, Dell and HP.
