The Dell Latitude 14 7000 (7480) is a top-notch business laptop when configured with top-of-the-line components, though it is a bit more expensive than rivals when so equipped.
Decent Design, but Not Too Flashy
The Latitude 7480's body is built around its 14-inch screen, which dictates its 0.72 by 13 by 8.7 inch (HWD) measurements. It's not showy, instead opting for a safe, dark gray/black exterior with the only flash of color being the blue pointing stick cap - an all-business aesthetic. It's perfectly suited for carrying from meeting to meeting or in a commute bag every day. The backlit keyboard is comfortable enough to use all day, and as mentioned above, the system has a pointing stick in addition to a touchpad with physical mouse buttons. The pointing stick is as responsive as the one on the X1 Carbon and other Lenovo ThinkPads, and that's a good thing for those who can't give them up, but the scalloped keys on the Lenovo keyboards are a bit more comfortable. That said, they're certainly less taxing on your fingertips than the flat keyboard on the current Apple MacBook Pro laptops. In any case, the keyboard is solid as a rock, and will likely last until the system is written off in five to six years.
