I typed at 113 words per minute at a rate of 95% on the typing test, which is a bit slower but just as accurate than my typical 119-wpm average. I still prefer the larger, curved keys and lower actuation force of Lenovo's ThinkPad keyboards, but Dell isn't too far behind. Not only did I never bottom out, but there was a weighty tactile click to each key press that I really appreciated. Bouncy keys with decent travel made writing this review comfortable for my fingers. Dell Latitude 5400 keyboard, touchpad and pointing stickĪ snappy backlit keyboard is one of my favorite things about the Latitude 5400. If you listen to indie or classic, then this won't be a problem, but the Latitude 5400 struggles with more complex arrangements in rock and techno music. Muddy drum thuds and splashy cymbals bled into the midrange and obscured the vocals. When I listened to The Killers' single "Rut," Brandon Flower's vocals sounded crisp and clear until the instruments kicked in.
The bottom-firing speakers on the Latitude 5400 aren't great, but they get loud enough to fill a medium-size room. The displays on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon (336 nits), the TravelMate P6 (299 nits) and the average premium laptop (359 nits) get considerably brighter. Not only is it less colorful than those competitors, but the Latitude 5400's screen, which peaks at just 228 nits, is also much dimmer. That said, the Latitude 5400 isn't a 2-in-1 and it doesn't come with a stylus so touch screen functionality is limited.Īccording to our colorimeter, the Latitude 5400's display covers only 62.1% of the sRGB color gamut, making it duller than the screens on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon (109%), the TravelMate P6 P614 (113%) and the average premium laptop (124%). I had no problems tapping the Latitude 5400's touch screen to navigate the web or use the on-screen keyboard to enter URLs.
