With all-day battery life and a comfy keyboard, the Dell Latitude 12 E5270 has a few solid entries on its resume. It also offers strong security. Unfortunately, the laptop has a dull display and is bulkier than competitors. If you want more endurance, check out the Lenovo ThinkPad X260, which lasts up to 17 hours on a charge when you add the six-cell battery ($1,065).

This range of display format is largely the upper limit for tablets and the lower limit for subnotebooks.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small in size and therefore easily portable. The tiny display has the added advantage of requiring little power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is exhausting for the eyes. High resolutions, which one is used to from a standard laptop, are almost not usable.
The same applies to tablets in this size range.

70.65%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
