Highly customizable and sporting an attractive carbon-fiber chassis, the Dell Latitude 7420 is our new favorite ultraportable for businesses.
One rung below the pinnacle of Dell's corporate laptop hierarchy (the Latitude 9000 series), you'll find the excellent if somewhat staid Latitude 7420. This 14-inch business laptop gets subtle improvements with each new generation. The latest version doesn't fix what isn't broken, adding Intel's latest silicon and little else. This means that for the time being, it's a superior alternative to our longtime favorite enterprise ultraportable, the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (whose new Gen 9 edition, which matches the Dell's move to 11th Generation Intel processors, we haven't tested yet). Choose the Latitude 7420 if you want a competent workhorse with excellent computing performance, even if it is a bit heavier and more expensive than the ThinkPad.
Carbon Fiber, Latitude-Style
The Latitude 7000 series was Dell's flagship until the introduction of the Latitude 9000 series a few years ago. Both are available in a range of screen sizes and form factors to fulfill pretty much any business computing need, as long as the business in question has deep pockets. The Latitude 7420 is available in either the conventional clamshell seen here or a 2-in-1 convertible version that offers more physical flexibility. Both have similar configuration options and are roughly the same size and weight.
