    Dell Latitude 5440 in-depth review

    The Dell Latitude 14 5440 is a typical workhorse. It can be a snappy daily driver or office machine if you select the right CPU for your needs. Speaking of which, there are eleven (whoa!) processor variants including vPro and non-vPro 13th Gen Intel U and P-series chips. The laptop can be found with DDR4 and DDR5 memory - the newer RAM standard is reserved for the more powerful 28W P processors.A first glance, the device looks almost as good as the Dell Latitude 14 7440 and the 5440 model costs less.

    Disassembly, maintenance and upgrade options

    Step 1: Accessing the Internal ComponentsEnsure the Dell Latitude 14 5440 is powered off and placed on a soft, clean surface to avoid damage. Undo the 8 captive Phillips-head screws securing the bottom panel. These screws remain attached to the panel, preventing loss. Lift the bottom panel near one of the hinges to create a gap, then use a thin plastic tool to pry the panel off, starting from the sides and front, finishing with the back.Hint: Prying the back last helps to avoid damage to the clips and ports located there.Step 2: Removing the BatteryDisconnect [...]

    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.
