Latitude E4310 Laptop 2011


The Latitude product palette by Dell includes a whole series of different model groups, all designed for professional use. On offer are diverse formats, beginning with the 10 inch Netbook, up to the high performance 15 inch platform. Approximately in the middle of this series lies the Latitude E4310, which essentially represents the fusion between performance and mobility with its 13 inch display. Especially "management and frequent travelers" should be keen on this notebook, at least according to an advertising slogan on the Dell homepage.
The included features such as a speedy Intel Core i5 CPU, and comprehensive communication options, as well as several security features, have to be paid for: from 1249 Euros excluding VAT and postage and packing, although this does include three years of on-site service on the following work day.
In the following text we present a short test, which came about with the help of the Technology Camp by Dell in London. As soon as a test device is available to us, we will provide the usual comprehensive test in addition.

Case & Design

From the perspective of the case, the Latitude E4310 is most closely related to the E6xxx series, with high quality materials and a strictly straight line design. It has not only inherited the combination of silver and black Aluminium-Magnesium components, but also their outstanding stability.
The attractive notebook practically did not warp significantly in any areas of the case. Also when handling the device, there was no noticeable bending or squeaking of any kind to be observed.
At first glance the contact for the closing mechanism made a good impression. The two massive metal hinges hold the display firmly in position, without even a trace of teetering. The maximum opening angle is about 170°, which should cover almost any usage scenario likely to be encountered in practical use
