Dell Latitude 3440

More and more brands push out affordable budget laptops. For most manufacturers the challenge is to decide which feature to economize on, and which to spend more on. Dell has managed to produce quite a balanced device in the Latitude 3440, pleasing many users by including an Intel Haswell Core i5-4200U processor. Intel's Haswell line of processors improved power consumption and decreased heat development.

This low power dual core CPU with Hyper Threading clocks at 1.6 GHz up to 2.6 GHz, integrates and HD 4400 graphics chip and features 6 GB dual channel 1.6 Mhz RAM. A Seagate Momentus 750 GB hard disk is used as storage device. The battery gives an impressive usage time of between 5-6 hours, made possible in part by the low energy demands of the hardware. This long battery life will no doubt make it suitable for those who need to work outdoors or access their laptops in an emergency.

The one compromise Dell has made on this device is the small 14 inch screen size. However, since this laptop is not aimed at photography enthusiasts but at businessmen, the small matte screen should suffice.
