Dell Latitude 7490 laptop i7-8650U 16GB 128GB SSD

Business-ready 14-inch laptop

The Dell Latitude 7490 is a 14.0-inch business laptop built around an Intel Core i7-8650U quad-core processor running at 1.90 GHz. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 128 GB M.2 SATA SSD. The FHD panel shows 1920 x 1080 resolution without touch input. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles the display output. Windows 10 Home comes pre-installed.

Step up from 8 GB or dual-core machines

Moving from a dual-core system or one limited to 8 GB of RAM gives a clear lift in multitasking headroom for office suites, browser tabs and video calls. The quad-core Kaby Lake R architecture and 8 MB L2 cache keep background tasks responsive. The jump is worth it when daily workflows regularly hit memory pressure or CPU limits on lighter configurations.

Thin chassis with Thunderbolt expandability

The compact frame includes Thunderbolt and HDMI ports so a single cable can drive external monitors and peripherals at a desk. The M.2 SATA slot is occupied by the boot drive, leaving no internal bay for a second SATA device. Builders who need more internal storage or a discrete GPU will need a larger chassis or external enclosures.
