    Dell Latitude 14 7455 in-depth review

    The 14-inch Dell Latitude 7455 is offered with new Qualcomm CPUs. This includes the Snapdragon X Elite X1E-80-100 with eight P cores and four E cores. The more modest Snapdragon X Plus X1P-64-100 has two fewer performance cores than its bigger sibling. The main focus here is the powerful NPU chip for accelerated AI productivity.There is just one display model but this one sounds great on paper - 1600p resolution alongside touchscreen capabilities.

This device relies on Type-C charging which means one of the fancy ports isn't available when the adapter is plugged in.That's a thin and light notebook, that's why the memory is soldered. However, the storage capabilities are also lim[...]

    In addition to receiving efficient and health-friendly profiles, by buying LaptopMedia's products you also support the development of our labs, where we test devices in order to produce the most objective reviews possible.

    Office Work

    Office Work should be used mostly by users who spend most of the time looking at pieces of text, tables or just surfing. This profile aims to deliver better distinctness and clarity by keeping a flat gamma curve (2.20), native color temperature and perceptually accurate colors.

    Design and Gaming

    This profile is aimed at designers who work with colors professionally, and for games and movies as well. Design and Gaming takes display panels to their limits, making them as accurate as possible in the sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standard for Web and HDTV, at white point D65.

    Health-Guard

    Health-Guard eliminates the harmful Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) and reduces the negative Blue Light which affects our eyes and body. Since it’s custom tailored for every panel, it manages to keep the colors perceptually accurate. Health-Guard simulates paper so the pressure on the eyes is greatly reduced.
