Dell Latitude E6400: Design and Build-up

On the design side, we have slightly different aesthetics, unlike previous Dell Latitude Notebooks that sport rounded curves and edges. The Dell Latitude E6400 offers an industrial-like laptop design, with plenty of 90° edges and angles. One thing we like about the Latitude E6400 design is that it’s kind of old school with its edges and sharp angles. By merely looking at this laptop, you’ll easily lose interest without seeing the internal features. However, the design and build-up quality are very durable.

The entire chassis of this Notebook is made from magnesium alloy, and you’ll experience zero plastic creaks or squeaks. This magnesium alloy structure is undoubtedly the best for industrial Notebooks as it’ll give the laptop enough resistance to bending in case you hold the system by the edge. However, the only downside of this magnesium alloy is that when typing on an unbalanced surface, the base plate will press against the corner of the Notebook thereby producing an unpleasant metal tapping noise.

The use of the magnesium alloy covers both the shell and lid of the Latitude E6400 which gives it an attractive brush metal design that’s not it but rather, a painted surface. This laptop metal surface is available in red, blue, or black color options which gives customers a wide range of choices that’ll best suit their taste. Dell made some pleasant changes this time around by adding a docking station that’ll allow employees to connect an external monitor for another display. In addition to that, there’s an external USB port on the side that’ll help to provide new DisplayPort connections for the already added external display.

Dell Latitude E6400: Display

The 14-inches matte display on the E6400 is nothing less than beautiful. During our testing, we experienced no dead pixels nor backlight bleed, while there are minimal dark screens. The color reproduction is vibrant, and one of the benefits of matte screens is zero reflection notwithstanding the environment. The backlight adjustments were great, giving you more than enough backlight settings no matter the office’s condition.

Dell Latitude E6400: Keyboard and Touchpad

The keyboard and wrist-rest structure on the E6400 is solid and a nice approach from Dell, though the thin alloy applied on the wrist-rest use to flex when pressed against. When typing, the keyboard responds fast and there’s no flex which is a smart and nice improvement over the older Latitude D630. The key travel is similar or even faster than most top Notebooks with a little clicking sound and the keyboard backlighting allowed for working and typing even in a dark environment.

The Alps touchpad is large enough for comfortable control and has a smooth texture that’s also responsive. The dual touchpad buttons traversed the full length of the touchpad and it’s reasonably responsive. On the right side of the touchpad is a SmartCard contact reader for easier and quick security checks of employees’ SmartCards without having to insert it inside the laptop.
