While not nearly as glamorous as Dell's own 13-inch and 15-inch XPS siblings, the Latitude 7480 is in some way the business-equivalent of those well-received mainstream machines. The good-looking 14-inch laptop is smaller and much lighter than before, but the build quality remains unquestionably high. The chassis is rigid with tight tolerances and features a soft, touch-friendly finish. The display is bright with accurate colors and non-glare as well, so road warriors won't have to deal with annoying reflections. The performance is top-notch - even though the CPU specific tests fall slightly short, the notebook excels when it comes to synthetic benchmarks - and the battery lasts all day even if it shouldn't be complete charged. The input devices are also very good with the keyboard in particular getting our nod as one of the best ones available on the market today. This section provides links to articles about diagnostics and the various error messages, beep codes and Diagnostic LED codes that can help to troubleshoot potential hardware and software issues on your system. The “Design and Gaming” profile is created at 140 cd/m2 brightness, D65 (6500K) white point and optimal gamma in sRGB mode.

Health-Guard eliminates the harmful Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) and reduces the negative Blue Light which affects our eyes and body. Since it’s custom tailored for every panel, it manages to keep the colors perceptually accurate. Health-Guard simulates paper so the pressure on the eyes is greatly reduced.

Switching on the GPU stress test, however, didn’t result in CPU throttling, which is the usual case, but it did lower the frequency down to 2.9 GHz. Operations seem to be normal even under extended heavy workload without overheating. Overall system performance is very good according to the synthetic benchmark test PCMark 8: with scores of 5052, 4981, and 3985 in the Work, Creative, and Home subtests, the system sits either at or near the top in our comparison and outperforms the smaller Latitude 7280 with the same CPU by 2 - 8 % depending on the test. Systems with the slower Core i5-7200U CPU like theHP EliteBook 840 are 10 - 13 % slower than the review laptop.

Thank you. Would like to put a question, which constitutes for me, by now, an issue: what about the keys “Home” and “End” being not dedicated ones, but force us to press 2 keys (Fn+Home) to obtain the same job as in the most keyboards? In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 24.5 °C / 76 F, compared to the device average of 29.5 °C / 85 F.

The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 24.2 °C / 75.6 F and are therefore cool to the touch. An amazing display that lasts all day See the difference: An optional touch-enabled, high resolution display makes it simple to view and manage your work throughout the day.We started off with 100% CPU workload for about an hour and the system was able to utilize the full performance of the Core i5-7200U at 3.1 GHz running at a bit higher than expected temperatures. I have both E7470 and 7480. The display of 7480 is better in terms of white color. The white areas of 7480 seems a bit gray or yellowish.This is not related to brightness, even I reduce the brightness of E7470 (7480 is set to max) , the white areas are more white on E7470. I would prefer E7470 in terms of screen. Our Latitude is equipped with a 14-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) anti-glare panel from LG Philips (LGD0557) with a corresponding pixel density of 157 ppi. With an average brightness of 321 cd/m², the panel compares well to those of other, higher-end business notebooks, althoughthe Latitude 14 E7470 withWQHD touch panel was a bit brighter still. Speaking of panels: Dell offers the i3-version of the 7480 with the 14-inch HD (1366 x 768 pixels) or the 14-inch FHD (1920 x 1080 pixels); the Core i5 and i7 models are available with the 14-inch QHD (2560 x 1440 pixels) touch display with Gorilla Glass as well. Dell specifies a brightness of only 200 nits for the HD display, so we'd likely give it a pass considering the high-end status of the 7000 series.
