DELL Latitude 3450 14" i3-4005U 4 GB 500 GB HDD laptop

Purpose-built business notebook

The Dell Latitude 3450 is a 14.0-inch laptop designed for everyday office tasks. It runs Windows 10 Professional 64-bit on a dual-core Intel Core i3-4005U processor clocked at 1.70 GHz with 3 MB L3 cache. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 5500 drives the 1366 x 768 HD LED display. The system includes 4 GB of DDR3 memory and a 2.5-inch 500 GB SATA hard drive for local storage.

Suits mobile workers needing legacy ports

This unit fits users who require native VGA and HDMI outputs for older projectors or external monitors without adapters. The built-in webcam supports video conferencing out of the box. Buyers who want more storage capacity or faster boot times should look at something else because the single mechanical drive limits both space and responsiveness. Anyone needing a touchscreen or higher resolution panel will not find it here.

Handles core productivity within clear limits

The 500 GB hard drive comfortably stores documents, spreadsheets and a moderate media library. Four gigabytes of RAM handles web browsing, email and standard business applications one at a time. The dual-core processor and integrated graphics run out of headroom with heavy multitasking, large datasets or any modern 3D workload. The HD display is adequate for text work but cannot show full 1080p content natively.
