Dell Latitude 5420 · Intel Core i5 (11th Gen) · 14" Full HD Touch · 8 GB / 256 GB SSD

Looking for something dependable rather than flashy? This Dell Latitude 5420 ticks that box. The Latitude 5000 series is Dell's mainstream business laptop — the reliable middle of the range that most companies roll out to their staff. It balances build quality, ports and price very well. The 5420 is an 11th-gen Latitude with Iris Xe-class graphics, Wi-Fi 6 on many units and USB-C — very current for a refurbished laptop.

The Core i5 is the sweet spot for most people — quick enough for multitasking, Office, coding and online classes, without the extra cost of an i7. 11th-generation Intel brought Iris Xe graphics, which are roughly twice as capable as older Intel graphics — you notice it in video calls, external monitors and light editing. With 8 GB of memory, switching between Chrome, Word and Zoom stays smooth. A 256 GB SSD keeps everything snappy — no waiting around for the hard drive. The 14-inch Full HD screen (with touch) gives you sharp text and room for two windows side by side.
