Reviews for the Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1

88.3% Core Ultra 7 165U performance debut: Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1 review | Notebookcheck
The Latitude 9450 2-in-1 may be modestly faster and longer-lasting, but it doesn't do enough outside of the CPU to distinguish itself from the older and visually identical Latitude 9440 2-in-1.
80% Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1 laptop review

From the outset, something special about the 9450 spoke loudly to my pragmatic side. It exudes efficiency at every turn. Who needs a performance powerhouse when it can run for over 19 hours on battery? The issue is that power users, those who might want a Latitude, need battery life and the ability to sprint to a computed conclusion. This machine is running a three-legged race, with two of its legs heading in opposite directions. When you factor in Dell's high cost of cutting-edge hardware, the market for this machine might be small, assuming IT managers are still researching buying decisions. This might make it perfect for the executive class, as they're unlikely to notice its limitations and will be happy to find the battery isn't flat when they occasionally pick it up.

Hands on: Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1 review
Source: Techradar English
Some businesses may be similarly surprised by a laptop that only offers USB-C ports, with two on the left and a third on the right. Aside from a 3.5mm combo jack and security lock, that’s your lot. Dell provides a tiny USB-C to USB-A dongle, and it’s just about small enough to stay in a port permanently, but there’s plenty of space for other ports on this 16.3mm-thick chassis so it’s an oddly restrictive choice. Perhaps Dell is looking to the future rather than the past, recognizing that in five years USB-C ports will be the default, and that certainly reflects the progressive feel of the Latitude 9450 as a whole. Ports and price aside, I can’t find anything to fault in this high-quality convertible.

Dell Latitude 9450 (2-in-1) review – Vibrant Display, Cool Performance, Long Battery
Source: Laptop Media English
We like the Dell Latitude 9450 (2-in-1). This expensive transformer offers a premium and solid aluminum build, a comfortable keyboard, and an accurate touchpad. The overall performance is good because the cooling with two fans is doing its job well. The Core Ultra 7 165U P and E cores boost to 3.70 GHz / 3.20 GHz in short and medium loads and around 2.40 GHz in longer stress. That’s more than enough for home or office work. The comfort under full load is fine – the fans aren’t noisy and the keyboard doesn’t get hot. This doesn’t apply to the fast NVMe that reaches whooping 80°C during benchmarking.

70% Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1 Review
Source: PC Mag English
The Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1 is a perfectly serviceable business convertible that falls competitively short on performance. Compared with several other laptops with similar specs, the Dell falls behind. It's not unbearably slow, and it's arguably overpowered for undemanding tasks like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. But if you need a 14-inch machine for video editing or 3D rendering, this isn't it. On the positive side, the Latitude is a sleek laptop with lengthy battery life. Nor does it compromise on the keyboard, touchpad, webcam, or speakers. Its wireless connectivity is excellent, though you can't connect an HDMI monitor or USB-A peripheral without a dongle.

90% Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1 2024 Review: For the C-Suite executive
Source: Tech2.in.com English
As solid as the Dell Latitude 9450 2-in-1 is as a laptop, it is not meant for regular people looking to buy one. This is purely for working professionals and the C-suite, people who are in line for a corner office. Maybe that is why, it is priced the way it is — I honestly cannot recommend regular folks to buy this laptop for their personal use, especially considering the fact that you don’t get an OLED panel and a high refresh rate option at this price point. However, if you are looking to equip the top management of your office with a no-nonsense workhorse that will keep on delivering, and if you’re looking for a no-hassle experience and need the technical support that Dell provides for its corporate workstations, then this is it.

For Rs 64,990, the Infinix GT Book offers good gaming performance, reliable battery life, and a crisp display with good colour coverage. The Infinix GT Book is a compelling option for anyone looking to purchase an affordable gaming laptop that can withstand the test of time thanks to its impressive thermal management and robust build quality. However, the picture is not all rosy, as it has its flaws, notably its limited upgradability. Infinix is also running a launch offer to sweeten the deal.

Intel Graphics 4-Core: Integrated graphics card based on the Xe LPG architecture (similar to the dedicated Arc GPUs, but with a focus on efficiency). Provides 4 Xe cores (64 Xe vector engines) and 4 ray tracing units.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

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.
