These may be lower end as far as business laptops go, but are pretty bulletproof as a general purpose workhorse machine. Used one for over 6 years which included frequent travel and it still works without an issue with the exception of the battery no longer holding charge. Using it now as a secondary/backup machine.

Damn Ryan, Back at it again with the Tech Videos

Ryan Gehret Always love your Dell review videos! Thanks and welcome back again.

I know this video is three years old, but I was just given two of these and some other Dell laptops because I rehab and donate them. Came across this video researching the model. The two I have, have i5 processors, Samsung ssd’s, 8GB Ram and fresh installs of Win 10 Pro. The CMOS batteries are shot but the rechargeable batteries still work. I’m surprised how speedy they are. Thick and heavy by standards of today but they will get people on the internet who don’t otherwise have computers. Cheers!

Latitudes are probably my favourite windows laptop series. You can get them fairly cheap and generally for the price the performance is good.

The hinges are not plastic. They are in a metal frame internally.

I have both an e6430 and e6530 and upgraded my mom to an e5430. I use the dock with both laptops. They sure beat the hell out of most consumer laptops for sure. Especially the models with ULV cpus and only 2gb of ram. Ouch! If I was in the market for a laptop and had less then $200 bucks to spend I would personally aim at one of these. That i3 might seem low end next to my i7 quad but that i3 is miles faster then any cheap netbook.

One of the last windows 7 laptops ever made

I’m guessing getting something like a 250 ssd will help with gaming

For what this series is, it's still one nice step up from the Vostro and Inspiron lines. I still have a Latitude e6430, I stuffed a quad core in that puppy. I miss the build quality. My 5491 is one sharp looking, and very fast mobile workstation, but there's little metal involved. It's a hybrid carbon polymer. Granted it still feels great in the hand. It's just not that tri metal goodness. But the 5420 and 5430 offered at least a really decent blend of that world verses the nearly all plastic construction.

Oh wow! I actually just got this laptop a few days ago. i5 3340M model. Upped to 12GB of RAM and it plays GTA V on normal settings without lagging or stuttering. My version came with an extended battery. Edit: I dont like how the wifi switch is tbh. It just slides and works. Kinda a red flag for mistakes

nice laptop i have the e6430 i put a intel core i7 3720qm processor in it runs amazing

i got that pc for like 3 years and i got windows 10 and it work but its not gaming pc but you still can play like project zomboid on it or some older gamess

Shows the agelessness of Dell, though; even the cheaper models aren't as cheap as in some other brands. HP, for example. God.

I just bought a refurb model of this. Has an I5 tho and 8 gb of ram do you know why?

I have a E5530.

my sd card from my go pro doesnt fit in nthe computer, i have a lattitude e5430 like you...
