Dell Latitude 14 7430 (2-in-1) – Top 5 Pros and Cons

Convertibles have generally become a pleasant form factor to use, both for the convenience of a touch screen, but also the flexibility to eliminate the keyboard entirely and do a better job at presenting or working as a team on a project.

Well, today we’re here with a premium 14-inch convertible from Dell, powered by Alder Lake’s most efficient processors. It also remains very lightweight, so it won’t be a burden to carry around.

Today we’re presenting you with LaptopMedia’s top 5 picks about the Dell Latitude 14 7430 (2-in-1).

Dell Latitude 14 7430 (2-in-1): Full Specs / In-depth Review


3 reasons to BUY the Dell Latitude 14 7430 (2-in-1)

1. Display quality

The laptop has a 14-inch FHD IPS display with comfortable viewing angles, 305 nits of brightness, and a 1800:1 contrast ratio. The panel covers 96% of the sRGB gamut, while the accuracy reaches a very low dE value of 0.7 once we apply our Design and Gaming profile.

Here are the results of our color accuracy test with the stock settings (left) and with our profile applied (right).

Genom att köpa LaptopMedias produkter stödjer du inte bara effektiva och hälsovänliga profiler utan även utvecklingen av våra laboratorier, där vi testar enheter för att kunna göra så objektiva recensioner som möjligt.

Kontorsarbete

Office Work bör främst användas av användare som tillbringar den mesta tiden med att titta på textstycken, tabeller eller bara surfa. Den här profilen syftar till att ge bättre tydlighet och klarhet genom att behålla en platt gammakurva (2,20), ursprunglig färgtemperatur och perceptuellt korrekta färger.

Design och spel

Den här profilen riktar sig till designers som arbetar professionellt med färger, även för spel och filmer. Design and Gaming tar skärmpaneler till sina gränser och gör dem så exakta som möjligt i sRGB IEC61966-2-1-standarden för webb och HDTV, vid vitpunkt D65.

Health-Guard

Health-Guard eliminerar skadlig pulsbreddsmodulering (PWM) och minskar negativt blått ljus som påverkar våra ögon och vår kropp. Eftersom den är skräddarsydd för varje panel lyckas den hålla färgerna perceptuellt korrekta. Health-Guard simulerar papper så att trycket på ögonen minskas kraftigt.

2. Security

The laptop has a bunch of pre-installed security software, which optimizes the work of the laptop. There’s also a fingerprint reader, while the thin bezels on the display house a bunch of sensors, including one for face recognition as well as a proximity sensor, which detects when you’re close and wakes up the laptop.


3. Battery life

With a 58Wh battery pack, the laptop lasts for 12 hours and 30 minutes of Web browsing, or 8 hours and 20 minutes of video playback, which is about a whole day of work, so you should be fine and not have to chase a charger every few hours. Keep in mind that these results were achieved with the Windows Better performance setting turned on, screen brightness adjusted to 120 nits, and all other programs turned off except for the one we are testing the notebook with.


2 reasons NOT to buy the Dell Latitude 14 7430 (2-in-1)

1. Build quality

For a laptop with a price that hovers around two thousand dollars, we’re really sad to see such poor execution and quality control. For example, our touchpad, despite its beautiful glass cover, sits unevenly on the right side, as if someone didn’t screw it in or secure it to the base properly.


2. Upgradeability

The laptop’s upgradeability isn’t up to stuff, as it happens to be with most convertibles. For units equipped with the Alder Lake U-series, you get soldered DDR4 RAM, while the P-series CPUs are paired with LPDDR5 memory. All of it is soldered onto the motherboard, while there’s only one M.2 PCIe x4 slot with Gen 4 support. There’s a special door that you need to remove, in order to access it.

Here is our teardown video, which shows exactly how to access the single SSD slot.
