The Inspiron 14 2-in-1 is a device you will use on your lap or, at the very least, hold in your hands in tablet mode, which means good heat management is crucial. During our Cinebench stress test, the touchpad was the coolest area at 86.72 degrees Fahrenheit. At the center of the keyboard, between the G and H keys, the laptop reached 106.7 degrees. The underside of the Inspiron hit temperatures of 118.22 degrees Fahrenheit and was the hottest area of the laptop. Overall, the Inspiron can get pretty warm under intense workloads. While I was running Cinebench, the Inspiron was hot to the touch, especially around the keyboard, the closer the keys got to the vent under the display. Webcam on the Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 (7420) The built-in speakers are adequate, despite some distortion at higher volumes, but since the audio is more satisfactory when using a decent set of headphones, my inclination would be to use the speakers only in a pinch. Dell does offer an optional Dell Mobile Adapter Speakerphone that might be just the thing for frequent conference-callers. The Inspiron 14 does quite well on battery rundown, coming in basically within the margin of error with the Microsoft Surface Pro and the HP Spectre. And face it, anything above the Inspiron’s 12:33 hours is icing on the cake. The two units that exceeded 14 hours on the battery test were the Asus Flip and the Lenovo Yoga. I've been a computer-tech writer and editor for several decades, and a photographer who writes about photo techniques and equipment for over a decade. My first job in the tech press was as a writer for Compute! magazine, where we used Commodore 64s from Circuit City as word processors. I next became the editor of Computer Dealer, offering advice to computer retailers, then moved on to Personal Computing as an executive editor, where I developed the magazine's benchmark suite. I held several positions at the massive Computer Shopper magazine before becoming editor in chief. While at Computer Shopper (owned by CNET Networks at the time), I edited bi-annual issues of Technology Review as a joint project with Fortune magazine.

The Dell XPS display leads in brightness with an impressive 469 nits. The OLED displays of the Yoga 9i and Asus Zenbook aren't that far behind at 352 and 321 nits, respectively. The Inspiron 14 had the least amount of brightness at 251.4 nits.OPMERKING: Klik in SupportAssist op de vervaldatum van de garantie om de garantie te verlengen of uw garantie te upgraden. The Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 is a fine convertible laptop capable of performing with some of the best 2-in-1, often pricier, clamshell ultrabooks on the market. That said, the Inspiron 14’s 12th Gen U-series processor wasn't quite as powerful as the Lenovo Yoga 9i’s 12th Gen P-series CPU under some workloads. The Inspiron 14 2-in-1, with a boost from Intel’s 12th Generation processor, holds its own against more expensive laptops (and in the case of the Asus B7 Flip, one that’s double the price). By no means is the Inspiron 14 a content-creation system, but it is very good at its intended use as a portable, convertible, modestly priced laptop. It exceeds the 4,000 points in PCMark 10 that indicate excellent productivity for common apps like Microsoft Office. Graphics Tests Moving over to upgradability, Dell claims that the Dell Latitude 5420 supports up to 64GB 3200 MHz DDR4 memory that you can upgrade with two memory module slots on the motherboard. It also comes with a single removable M.2 SSD slot that users can replace and upgrade in the future. Overall, even to the naked eye, colors seem somewhat faded, and both brightness and saturation could use a boost. Working in a bright environment would be challenging. Subjectively, the Inspiron 14 2-in-1 appears best with the display set at 85% to 100% brightness, in a modestly lit kitchen nook. In the same room, the Inspiron 16 2-in-1 only needs the level set to 50% to 60% to achieve the same effect. In fact, adjusting a photo on each unit to the same size (compensating for the 16-inch display’s size advantage), a scene of trees on a sunny day appeared brighter and with richer colors on the 16-inch unit, probably because the Inspiron 16 is capable of displaying 96% of the sRGB gamut to the Inspiron 14’s 64%.

There's not much software preinstalled on Dell's 2-in-1. I didn’t even find the usual Windows 11 bloatware I’m used to seeing on new devices. I did find some Dell software of varied usefulness, though. Dell Customer Connect delivers surveys, and My Dell allows users to register their system for the warranty or find their Dell Service tag. Lastly, there’s Dell’s SupportAssist app, which provides automated support and assists customers with their device. Still, for the money, the Inspiron gets pretty close. It even transcoded a video from 4K to 1080p faster than the Asus Zenbook 13 S and its 6800U processor, the latest from AMD. The Inspiron may not have a great, bright OLED display like the Zenbook and Yoga 9i, but it’s also significantly cheaper than both, so you have to give something up.

Controleer of de voedingsadapter met de computer is verbonden wanneer u deze voor het eerst inschakelt. To test the webcam, we paired up with an older laptop using the earlier 720p standard. That display, when viewed in a window next to the Inspiron 14’s, was notably soft. That said, the Inspiron 14’s more limited color and brightness detracted from a Zoom session.

Dell Latitude 5420 has more ports and slots count than the Dell Latitude 7420. It has eleven versus nine amount of ports and slots on the Dell Latitude 7420.

Intel’s 12th Generation processors certainly acquitted themselves well, especially in multi-threaded tests, such as Cinebench R23 and Geekbench 5.4.1 Pro, where the Inspiron and the Yoga topped all others. The extra cores helped there. Productivity Tests

Despite this very credible set of features, the display limits an otherwise excellent system. Screen brightness came in at around 277 nits at 100% brightness, the lowest of our comparison units. Plus, our Datacolor Spyder tests showed the Inspiron 14's panel covering only 64% of the sRGB gamut and 48% of the Adobe RGB gamut, also lowest in our comparison group. (More on this later.) The Inspiron 14 2-in-1 doesn’t have bloatware in the usual sense. However, the installed operating system, Microsoft Windows 11 Home, does the usual skirting of the line in touting Edge and Bing. The Inspiron 14 does come with Dell System Software (DSS), a utility that provides critical updates and patches necessary for the proper operation of your Dell computer. The Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 comes with a one-year limited warranty. Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 (7420) Configurations The Inspiron covers 43.5% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and 61% of the sRGB color gamut. It’s tough for the Inspiron to compete with the OLED displays of some of its competitors, though those are significantly more expensive. For instance, the Yoga i9 covers 140.1% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and 198% of the sRGB color gamut. The Inspiron’s results are closer to the older Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 and its LED touchscreen, which covers 69.4% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and 98% of the sRGB color gamut. That’s a much fairer comparison of what you’re expected to get from an LED touch display in this price range. To put productivity notebooks through their paces, we run the Cinebench R23 benchmark 20 times in a row and collect the scores to get an idea of how it performs under stress. The Inspiron began with a score of 6,642.90 before normalizing around the 4,800 range. Impressively, this is just about 100 behind the Yoga 9i on the same benchmark, with a processor that uses more power.

Hard drive retention: Hard drive retention is not available on models with a soldered hard drive, including XPS 9315 2in1, Chromebooks or Venue tablets, except the Venue 11 Pro. Even the previous ones, only the higher-end i7 version has it. But this year, nothing even for the i7 version. And the AMD version uses the older Ryzen 5000 series because the newer 6000 requires DDR5.
