Reviews for the Dell Latitude 5491

83.8% Dell Latitude 5491 (8850H, MX130, Touchscreen) Laptop Review | Notebookcheck
Hexa-core for business. Dell's mid-range Latitude 5000 series gets the Coffee Lake-H treatment and dedicated graphics as well. The new 14-inch model with 45 W processor and GeForce graphics outperforms the sibling with ULV processor, but the additional power draw creates more heat and shortens battery life. The display remains less than impressive.

A six-core "Coffee Lake" processor gives the Dell Latitude 5491 preternatural power for a business laptop, but it's a bit too muscular for everyday users and applications (let alone budgets).

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
