Dell Latitude 7280 Laptop – Black (Intel Core i5-7200U Processor, 8GB DDR4, 256GB SSD, Win 10 Pro (64bit))

Product Information

Ensure that the BIOS is updated to the latest version. For more information, see Dell Knowledge Base article Dell BIOS Updates. Voer het updatehulpprogramma voor TPM uit vanuit de DOS-omgeving in geval van 'Legacy'-opstartmodus (gebruikers zonder Windows) The Latitude earned a high score of 8,008 on the Geekbench 3 general performance test. The lower-tier, previous-generation CPUs in the EliteBook (Core m5-6Y57; 5,739) and ThinkPad X260 (Intel Core i5-6300U; 6,424) produced predictably lower scores.

Sure, the screen isn’t as beautiful, the svelte aluminum casing doesn’t apply, and the bezel isn’t razor-thin. But this Latitude is thinner and lighter than any of its direct predecessors, and the footprint has shrunk appreciably as well. This has all occurred alongside the tactful preservation of most of what defines a business PC: a subtle, understated case design, versatile connectivity options, and a functionality over form foundational philosophy. To review one of the primary case revisions we discussed earlier, the Latitude 7280 exchanges the longstanding dual-hinge design for a single central hinge nearly identical to that of the XPS 13. It is this modification which also allows for the incorporation of the exhaust vent in the hinge cavity, which arguably is a much more convenient location for both lap-based and desk-based usage (both in terms of comfort and even noise levels). Het hulpprogramma voor BIOS-update uitvoeren vanuit de DOS-omgeving als u de UEFI-opstartmodus gebruikt (niet-Windows-gebruikers)Nadat de TPM-update is voltooid, wordt het systeem automatisch opnieuw opgestart om deze te activeren. Het DOS-systeem wordt automatisch opnieuw opgestart en de TPM wordt bijgewerkt tijdens het opstarten van het systeem. But beyond these negatives, there are also quite a few positives to take into account. For starters, the 7280’s build quality is impeccable, with hardly any flex and a wonderfully ergonomic feel despite its thin and light profile. Battery life is positively outstanding. The keyboard is among the best in its class. The machine is practically silent (apart from the CPU noise) during most usage, and it still manages reasonable temperatures. And performance is blisteringly fast in general system operation, with synthetic application benchmarks putting most others to shame.

Bevestig dat de TPM geen eigenaar heeft. Er vindt geen automatische provisioning van Windows naar de TPM plaats. TPM file-encryption chips come standard, but to get the Latitude with Intel vPro remote management, you'll need to configure it with a Core i5-7300U or higher. Dell Latitude 7280 display

Just under the front edge of the keyboard are the 7280's stereo speakers, which pump out enough sound to fill a midsized conference room. Audio is good at low volumes, though predictably short on booming bass, but grows ragged as you crank the volume past 75 percent. At 100 percent, it'll remind you of the first AM radio you had as a kid. The Latitude 7280's integrated Intel HD 620 graphics earned it a fairly pedestrian score of 56,318 on the Ice Storm Unlimited graphics test -- very similar to the 56,633 average for ultraportable notebooks. The EliteBook (Intel HD 525) and the ThinkPad (Intel HD 520) earned slightly higher marks of 59,071 and 59,489, respectively.

Using the left or right arrow keys make Dell Touchpad the active tab (a figure of a touchpad should be showing). Note: Other options listed under Keyboard Illumination in the System Configuration menu may include: In addition to these inadequacies (the significance of which is quite subjective), the 7280 retains a couple of the (albeit relatively minor) flaws of its predecessor. The display panel, while bright and high-resolution, remains rather dull in terms of color gamut coverage, and the touchpad is still merely average (though it does provide two physical hardware buttons). And we’re sorry to report that our review unit absolutely possesses the venerable CPU whine symptoms that many have encountered on some previous Dell Ultrabooks. Dell gave the Latitude 7280 a fairly clean installation of Windows 10, only adding a handful of its own utilities. Command | Update keeps the system up-to-date on software and drivers from Dell; Command | Power Manager optimizes battery life, among other things; and SupportAssist organizes system info and support links. Bottom line Streamers, beware: Though the Latitude 7280 blasts enough volume to fill a large conference room, it emits annoyingly scratchy audio. I heard varying degrees of distortion on everything from Vanessa Carlton's "A Thousand Miles" to Migos' "T-Shirt."The 256GB solid-state drive in the Latitude 7280 we tested was faster than a traditional hard drive, but other SSDs outpaced it. So although the Latitude finished our file-transfer test in 53 seconds for a speed of 96 MBps, faster speeds were achieved by the EliteBook's 256GB SATA-3 SSD (145.4 MBps), the ThinkPad's 256GB SSD (157.1 MBps) and the ultraportables average (182.7 MBps). We have long praised touchpads (especially on business models) with separate physical buttons, and the Latitude 7280 continues this trend with two very comfortable (and quiet) hardware buttons. However, the touchpad itself, an Alps Electric product, has lost ground somewhat over the years in comparison to its peers such as many Synaptics-brand touchpads and even the Dell XPS 13’s Elan touchpad, which we found to be excellent in spite of its integrated buttons. Regardless, it’s still decent, and most of the time, gestures and pointing work just fine. The finish isn’t as comfortable as that of the XPS 13, which features a smooth glass touchpad surface, but it’s roughly equivalent with that of previous Latitudes, which have shown to hold up well under heavy use for years. It’ll do, but we hope that this is one of the components slated for revision in future models—ideally while still preserving the hardware buttons. Wanneer de TPM-update is voltooid, start u de PowerShell-opdracht in de beheerdersmodus om de automatische provisioning opnieuw te activeren. That's not true of its 3DMark graphics scores—356 for the Fire Strike subtest, compared to 401 for the Razer Blade Stealth and 429 for the ZenBook 3—but that simply underscores that neither the Latitude nor any other integrated-graphics business laptop is built for 3D arcade or shoot-'em-up action. Casual and solitaire games, not the latest fast-blast titles, are its pastimes of choice.
