Editorial note

The Dell Latitude 5420 stands out for its solid performance, thanks to its Intel® Core™ i5 processor and expandable internal memory of up to 8 GB. This allows for a smooth user experience when multitasking, which is particularly appreciated for professional use. Additionally, with a storage capacity of 500 GB on a 7200 RPM hard drive, it offers ample space for a variety of files and applications while ensuring quick access to data. However, some drawbacks must be considered. The 2nd generation processor may be a limitation for users with more demanding needs. Furthermore, the maximum memory capacity of 8 GB may not be sufficient for those using heavy applications or who multitask intensively. The lack of Bluetooth and USB 3.2 ports also limits connectivity options, which could be a disadvantage for some users. Finally, the 14-inch screen may seem too small for those who prefer a more immersive visual experience, and the nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) hybrid battery may offer limited battery life compared to modern models. In terms of design, the Dell Latitude 5420 is sturdy and benefits from durability certifications such as EPEAT Gold and ENERGY STAR, highlighting Dell's commitment to energy efficiency and environmental respect. The value for money is interesting, especially considering its storage capacity and versatile connectivity, although the mentioned limitations may influence the purchasing decision. In summary, the Dell Latitude 5420 is a good choice for users looking for a reliable laptop for everyday tasks, but it may not be suitable for those with more advanced needs.
