Dell Inspiron 14 7420 (2-in-1): Full Specs
Design
Design-wise, the Inspiron 14 looks to be made of metal, having a sculpted chassis with sharp edges and rounded corners. The hinges on the back also work in an interesting way, lifting up the base at an angle, giving you a better typing angle. This has so far been missing in some convertibles, due to the hinges having to be extra flexible and with a 360-degree rotation. As the display has a touch layer, you need an increased level of protection, which here means a glass cover. In terms of portability, this isn’t the lightest 14-inch laptop, but it also won’t be a burden to carry around, with a weight of 1.66 kg and a profile of 17.86 mm.
Display
As always, Dell keeps the information about the display very close to the vest. The 14-inch FHD+ IPS panel has a standard 60Hz refresh rate. A unique feature of the panel is the TrueLife technology, which is a clear coating that supposedly makes the image look clear, which should be pretty good for office work and reading documents.
Specifications and features
The hardware has been specifically chosen to provide enough performance for office tasks and daily use, while also sparing the battery as much as possible. The 12th Gen Alder Lake U-series has a max TDP of 15W, which should pair very well with the two battery options, of either 41Wh or 54Wh. In terms of graphics, you have Intel’s integrated solutions, which vary depending on which CPU you pick. If you want more performance, you can get the MX550 from NVIDIA, which can speed up rendering and editing times.
