This is a great deal.
The performance jump from 7th Gen to 8th Gen (due to the core count doubling) makes the Latitude 5490 a much more relevant and capable laptop for years to come compared to the 7th Gen models you were looking at.
| Component | Detail | Significance |
| Model | DELL Latitude 5490 | A durable, reliable business-class laptop from Dell’s mainstream line. |
| Warranty | 15 day | |
| Processor | i5 8th Gen | This is the key upgrade! The 8th generation (e.g., Core i5-8250U) was a major architectural shift for Intel, moving the i5 U-series from 2 cores to 4 cores (Quad-Core). This results in a significant performance boost over the i5 7th Gen model (like the 5480/7480) for multitasking and general use. |
| Memory (RAM) | 8 GB | Standard for modern computing. Good for everyday use, web browsing, and office work. |
| Storage | 256 GB SSD | Fast storage is essential for quick boot times and snappy application loading. 256 GB is a good starting capacity. |
| Display | 14″ | Standard size for balancing portability and productivity. (Note: Most 5490s came with a standard HD (1366×768) or optional Full HD (1920×1080) screen. The price suggests it might be the HD version, but either way, the performance is the main draw.) |
