The reason why business laptops have 180 degree hinge is because one of the most common failure points in a laptop is its hinge. So opening a laptop beyond a particular angle will damage the hinge. So incorporating 180 degree in a business laptop ensures that the hing is much stronger. This is my observation, I might be wrong too.
A critical business feature for me is the hinge stiffness - there is nothing worse than sitting on the train with the screen wobbling all over the place. This one looks solid - thanks mate.
I just got this model for work too. Mine does not have an Ethernet port. Does yours? I tried connecting a USB-C dock, but the bandwidth speed is much slower than than the built-in WiFi. Are you you solely using WiFi, or do you have a USB-C dock that supports higher speeds on its Ethernet port? Thnx!
Hey , I got this from my office and it sucks, it heats so much and speakers, they sound very low, is there some kind of tuning that needs to be done in order to have a loud voice on the speaker
I bought this one used, it is such a nice laptop and I love it. The only problem is that the sim card is not being detected. It does have an LTE modem installed and compatible drivers, but it always shows "insert sim" anybody have any idea about this?
No idea could just be dirty or need a driver update. How much did you pay? I see 7400s 8th gens gong for $200 with 16GB ram and 256GB SSD. About $50 more than the HP Elitebooks of the same era but these Dells have much better screens. Was also looking at 5000 latitudes because they come faster for the same price (IRIS Graphics) but have really dim screens.
I think the idea with the 180 degree hinge is you can lie it flat and use Ctrl-Alt-Down to show what's on your screen to someone sitting across from you
After using this laptop for a year, it's hot trash lol the WIFI antenna stinks and the only thing it's good for is Office word programs. I hate this laptop with a passion.
It runs like a million degrees and its fans spin up so loud I have to put ice packs on it to keep it cool, its literally the worst work laptop I've ever had. Our company switched everyone to Thinkpads after everyone complained about these, leagues better.
Please tell me if business laptops are good for programming like android studio? And please tell if this laptop is good for programming, previously i used older versions of latitude it used to work perfect and now i want to upgrade it would be helpful if anyone answer.
Is it me or does this keyboard and track pad cut your fingers? My company purchased this for me and my fingers tips are killing me from using the keys and trackpad. I use a 2013 late edition MacBook Pro with retina as a personal laptop and is soooo much better than this crap. I'm so confused why it's not being brought up.
Hi, I'm really interested in Latitude 7400 (matt with touch). Can you confirm please the real weight of this device? I see on internet widely differing opinions about weight, from 1,36kg (many reviews) to even 1,53kg (Notebookcheck).
What do you think about Dell Precision series 5000 that is the professional version of the XPS with Quadro cards? Can that be the best machine for pro works?
I was sent a Dell dongle which isn’t what I need. Is there a powered Dell hub that will allow me to plug in all my peripherals, and USB C out of it to laptop that will also charge the laptop? I have the 7400
Can you please-specify what the Dell Dongle that you received is for? (Example: to ). Also: Yes. I have-heard there are Dell port-replicators that connect to the “USB type C” port of laptops and on the other end there are things like VGA, HDMI, DisplayPort, USB type C, USB type A, 10/100/1000 “Gigabit”-Ethernet port, etcetera.
@@manuar9760 I dunno. look-up the particular hardware-requirements of that computer-game and then look-up the hardware-characteristics of the particular “Dell”-brand-name “Latitude”-model-name “7400”-model-number “”--sub-model-number that you are looking-at. Not all of the “Dell Latitude 7400”-laptops have exactly the same hardware-specifications.

Yes this one is the best in that category
The 180 recline is to use a monitor + the laptop keyboard. So the laptop screen sits flat while you are using the laptop primarily as a keyboard.
new intro definitely better. simpler, faster, subtle woof
Thanks mate
16GB is not the max for the RAM. It’s max is 32GB.
This is what my work issued us and I really enjoy it!

Do you have problems with it overheating?

Yer maybe
Or you turn around your PC after Ctrl-Alt-Down and when you read something scroll down with your finger
hahha nice :D
Awesome video, are you still going to review the latitude 7400 2 in 1 that you used for gaming? Thanks
I have done gaming reviews on those specs a few times. Check out my surface pro 6 gaming review

Can I use this laptop for adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for designe
I am planning to buy this for computer science studies. Can you pls elaborate about the wifi condition ?

What matters is the hardware that comes inside the laptop.
If it’s powerful-enough to do programming in/with.
I chose 5400 over 7300 because reviews were flawless while 7000 were full of overheating reviews and fan noise lol what do you think
7400 fan runs non-stop. Avoid this laptop.
@@MrRyankellogg ouch 😓 (that the fan runs non-stop). Thanks for the advice 🙂.
Choose 7400 or T480s bro?
Same question.
Please Can I use this to learn UI/UX and programming? I wanna buy it on Monday.
You forgot to add that it has a touch screen key board. I have this pc for work and it is great!
Do you mean that the ENTIRE qwerty keyboard is touchscreen?, or do you mean that only the FUNCTION-keys (is. F1 through F12) are touchscreen?
@@reoencarcelado5904probably on-screen keyboard

Are you a candy ass?
Privacy screens and integrated dock mechanisms are two common business features.
Yep 👍
Is there a gaming version of this , I love it
This or thinkpad for working with office??
Thank you :D
I have T480s which is great but this one I for the class better in terms of battery, display and chasy

In the video he says the weight 🤦♂️

If you need Quadro drivers (Solid Works ect) if not better to go with XPS
@@TallyHoTech I think it would be a nice comparison with the Radeon pro drivers in the 16 inch macbook
Is the keyboard backlit?
Yes. Avoid this laptop, the fan runs non-stop.
Hey is this laptop good for gaming too? Such as roblox Genshin Impact or Minecraft?
It’s will be fine for those games
I prefer your old intro to a video
Fair enough
I’m having a problem with my 7420 do you know how to reset from bios settings to factory
What is the battery life?
amazing review made my easy soo easy
The thinking mans xps :p
is it good product for programmers?
