If you prefer the weight and dimensions of an ultrabook, you should have a look at the Latitude 7-series. The cover is very pressure resistant, but force on the inner frame creates visible picture interferences.Īll in all Dell's Latitude E6440 is visually restrained, has convenient haptics and a good chassis, which is also very sturdy. You can somewhat easily twist the cover despite the aluminum lid and produce white veils on the picture.

The steel hinges appear to be very solid and keep the display well in position almost without any bouncing, but you can still open the lid with one hand – great. The sturdy impression is supported by the solid locking mechanism that keeps the lid in position. The stability of the base unit does not leave anything to be desired: Nothing can be pushed in or twisted only the area of the right palm rest can be slightly pushed in with a lot of force. Everything feels very sturdy, even though the Latitude E6440 is not very light at 2.1 kilograms (~4.6 pounds). The cover is made of anodized aluminum, the bottom is powder-coated and the palm rest is rubberized. The mixture of an angular touchpad and the rounded shape of the keyboard and the case is also restrained, but appealing.ĭell uses a combination of magnesium, aluminum and plastic in terms of materials. Open the simple silver lid and you can see the black interior, which is just complemented by a silver strip at the outside that also works as a bumper at the same time. We already mentioned that the case of the Dell Latitude E6440 is not going to win any design awards, but it will definitely work well in the workspace in return.

There are also some companies nowadays with an Apple infrastructure, so the MacBook Pro 13 is an alternative as well. Toshiba's Tecra A50 has very similar hardware equipment to our review unit, but costs around 1,300 Euros (~$1780). ThinkPads are already familiar in office environments and Lenovo's ThinkPad L440 is a convincing package. Less expensive and equipped with a 15-inch display is HP's ProBook 650. We only reviewed the latter premium rival. Lenovo offers the ThinkPad T440 and Toshiba has its Tecra R940 for demanding customers. Other manufacturers obviously also know that it is quite lucrative to supply companies with laptops for hundreds or thousands of employees, so the competition is quite big: HP often has an advantage thanks to its server business and wants to convince companies with its EliteBook 840, for example. We already reviewed the 15-inch sibling, the E6540 ( i7-4800MQ, HD 8790M). These components indicate a fairly powerful system and Dell promises first class security features with DDP Protected Workspace, TPM module, Dell Control Vault and much more. We review the Latitude E6440 with a 14-inch display, Core i5-4300M processor and AMD Radeon HD 8690M graphics card. The 6-series within the Latitude range is in the upper range in terms of price and performance. Dell built up quite a reputation in this area over the last couple of years and obviously wants to continue the success of the Latitude series. But it does not have to – business devices have other priorities: Ports, stability, simple handling, performance and restrained design are much more important for business customers.

For the original German review, see here.ĭell's Latitude 6-series is neither very thin nor especially light and does not win any design awards either.
