Latitude not as high quality as Inspriron

I'm fine with Latitude; The two hundred dollars I spent was in anticipation of what all the reviews said - I was going to have to buy a battery in no time. Briefly about what is good and what is bad, people understand. The good news is that most people have found that they prefer Dell laptop keyboards, and that's for sure. People with $2,000 computers buy another $1,000+ Dell XPS just because they realized too late that keyboard comfort is so important. The bad - the comfortable Latitude keyboard has a high-dissolving clear coat from the factory. Use a 2 inch brush when wiping the keyboard with another clean cotton cloth. Residues collect in cracks and can be brushed out. Don't waste compressed air on it. The graphics card is not designed for fast FPS games, but it is still sufficient for average FPS. Bad: The body isn't as polished as the Inspiron, but the shape is better. The battery bay, and that's because the case is cheaper, makes installing the battery at the right angle a real itch, which is the main thing to consider. If that battery doesn't get in, expect your work to be gone at the slightest surge of electricity. That's why Latitiude gets 4 stars in 2013.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
