The Dell Latitude 5420 is not entirely hopeless. It has a great keyboard, excellent connectivity, and good battery life. The message Pressing OK will close all applications, shut down Windows, Flash the BIOS, then reboot. appears. The file E5420A02.exe is using the Universal (Windows/ DOS) format and is designed to be directly executed from Windows environment.The 3DMark2006 benchmark, as an evaluation of the general gaming performance, reached a score of 3.330 points. The 2010 Intel HD generation (also integrated into the CPU), only scored 1.500 points on average (depending on the CPU +/- 200 points). This speaks for an improved gaming performance. The extent of this is described in detail in the article Intel HD Graphics 3000 graphics solution. Also see the data sheet for the HD Graphics 3000.

The graphics unit integrated into the processor will not be very appealing to gamers, but serious office users will have a low power consumption and almost six hours of battery life with the Intel HD 3000. The non-reflective WXGA display is a little too dark though for use outside or in bright surroundings. Narrow viewing angles, a tight color space, and low contrast all lead to a very weak display rating. Its 1920 x 1080 resolution, matte display coat, and good contrast ratio make a decent first impression. To its credit, the display works well for its narrow intended purpose. It’s readable, resists glare, and is bright enough to use in any office. In brief, stay away from the Dell Latitude 5420. This is not the work-from-home laptop you’re looking for.These results come with an important caveat. Dell has updated the Latitude 5420 with models that offer new Intel Core processors and Intel Iris Xe graphics. We haven’t tested the Latitude 5420 in this configuration, but we have tested laptops with similar hardware. We expect the new models to provide a small boost in processor performance and a significant boost in graphics performance. The Latitude 5420 we tested had Intel’s Core i7-10610U quad-core processor. It’s an upgrade from the Core i3 processor found in the base configuration, but it certainly didn’t feel like it. on Dell internal analysis using publicly available specs in August 2023 comparing maximum effective capacity for PowerStore 1200 and FlashArray //X20. Assumes average 4:1 data reduction for PowerStore, 5:1 for Pure Storage. Actual results vary. performance is even worse. The Core i7-10610U has Intel’s ancient UHD graphics solution. It’s entirely inadequate for modern games or 3D applications. You shouldn’t expect to play any 3D game sold in the last five years, and even big budget titles from a decade ago can struggle at higher detail settings.
