Dell Latitude 5420 laptop Core i5-1145G7 2.6GHz 16GB 256GB 14

Compact business notebook with 14-inch TN panel

The Dell Latitude 5420 targets professionals who need a portable Windows 10 Pro machine for office applications and web-based workflows. Its quad-core Intel Core i5-1145G7 processor runs at 2.6GHz with 8MB cache. The 16GB DDR4 memory and 256GB NVMe solid-state drive provide responsive multitasking and fast boot times. Integrated Intel Iris Xe graphics handle everyday visual tasks.

Display and connectivity limits for mobile work

The 14.0-inch non-touch screen uses a TN panel with a 1366 x 768 resolution, which restricts viewing angles and colour accuracy compared to IPS alternatives. Text and images may appear washed out when viewed off-centre. Wireless connectivity relies on 802.11 WLAN without a specified Bluetooth or newer Wi-Fi standard. The integrated graphics share system memory, limiting performance in 3D or video-intensive workloads.

Straightforward memory upgrade

Two memory slots support up to 32GB total DDR4 capacity, allowing a simple RAM increase if the 16GB factory configuration becomes a bottleneck. The 256GB NVMe drive occupies the primary storage slot; adding a second drive requires checking for an available M.2 bay not detailed in the specifications. No optical drive is present, so OS reinstalls need a USB recovery media.
