Creating a quick transition from mobile freedom away from the office to full desktop productivity at your office desk, Dell™ E-Family docks, stand and accessories enable seamless mobile-to-desktop expansion. As far as docking stations go, the E-Port Replicatorincludes 6 USB ports, eSATA, Ethernet, Audio, VGA, DisplayPort, DVI-D, HDMI, and a monitor stand.On the upside, brightness distribution is quite good at 89%—it’s hard to notice any variation in normal use. The keyboard’s backlight features four levels of brightness that you can alternate between depending on your surroundings and the anti-glare screen makes it possible to use the Latitude 5430 comfortably in direct sunlight. Fortunately, up to 16 GB of RAM is supported (8 GB per slot), so there should be no trouble reaching a sufficient number.

It is ideal for those who still rely on legacy ports (serial port, parallel port, or PS/2 port) regularly. Likewise the included stylus that is attached to the Latitude 5430 with a lanyard worked well during testing and the touchscreen can also be used while wearing gloves. Less noise and heat under load and perhaps an option for a better-quality screen with equivalent or better brightness. As is the case with nearly every business notebook, the Latitude E5430’s dual speakers provide only the bare minimum audio performance.The slots are conveniently marked and most every screw used in the construction of the notebook is identical and thus interchangeable, making disassembly/reassembly a breeze.
