The matte black base unit with a convenient soft touch surface was made of materials like aluminum and magnesium alloy to find the best combination of mobility and stability. Even though the E7440 does look quite simple at first there is a real high-tech product underneath this discreet business suit. If you are willing to pay more than 1,000 Euros (~$1356) for an entry-level configuration with average hardware equipment you can definitely expect excellent case quality. We added the according information in the sections Display, Processor, System Performance and Battery Runtime. We had the chance to review an E7440 with a matte Full HD IPS display (1920x1080 pixels), a Core i5-4300U and a 128 GB SSD. Update : Review update E7440 (IPS FHD, 4300U, 128 GB) Let's find out how the E7440 holds up against the EliteBook Folio 9470M and the ThinkPad T430u. The main rivals for the new Latitude are once again from HP and Lenovo. Additional features like an SSD, UMTS module, Core i7 processor or more memory quickly increase the price for the base configuration - which is without VAT - up to 1,649 Euros (~$2237). Dell currently offers a very similar configuration with a slightly faster CPU (Core i5-4300U) for 1,059 Euros (~$1437, including some discounts) in its German online store. Our review unit is equipped with a Core i5-4200U Haswell CPU, which is supported by 4 GB RAM and a 500 GB hard drive.

It follows the trend of current consumer notebooks with an optional touchscreen display and a very thin chassis but is supposed to stand out from the competition with comprehensive security features and proven qualities. These notebooks helped the company to build a remarkable reputation amongst very demanding business customers.ĭell not only offers the yearly refresh for the popular 14-inch class but also introduces a completely new device with the Latitude E7440 (short Latitude 14). Latitude - this name represents a series of usually quite expensive professional notebooks at Dell. For the original German review, see here.
