All tests were performed with the usual settings – Wi-Fi constantly running, screen brightness set to 120 cd/m2 and Windows battery saving feature turned on. Web browsing We’ve recorded a maximum brightness of 336 cd/m2 in the center and 313 cd/m2 as average across the surface with just 11% maximum deviation. The color temperature on the screen at maximum brightness is 7200K so colors will appear a bit colder than usual – 6500K is the optimal white point. Below you can see how the measurements change at 140 cd/m2 luminance or in other words – 41% brightness.

SupportAssist, previously called My Dell, provides system updates, detects issues and sends you alerts based on your device, which makes solving and preventing problems easier than ever. This application gives you access to everything you need to take the guesswork out of maintaining PCs and tablets. For more information and installation instructions see the following link: Our Latitude 7480 is equipped with a 4-cell Express Charge Capable battery with a healthy capacity of 60 Wh - good enough for a solid WLAN run time of 12 hours. While the Latitude 5480 with its even higher-capacity battery (68 Wh) lasts about 4 hours longer, the result is still quite impressive - especially when considering that the predecessor with QHD display and a 55 Wh battery didn't even last half as long. The maximum and minimum run time are also surprisingly good for this category. For most usage scenarios, the notebook will easily last the entire workday.Like most 14-inchers, the Latitude 14 7480 offers only an M.2 SSD slot (located right next to the battery) – no 2.5-inch drive bay, unfortunately. Anyway, SSDs with the 2280 standard fit in while the motherboard itself supports PCIe NVMe SSDs. However, our unit shipped with SanDisk X400 M.2 running on SATA III controller, which is a big let-down since the laptop falls into the premium segment.

At first, we weren’t expecting any mind-blowing results but after the tests, the battery life on this thing is just phenomenal. Thanks to the big 60Wh battery and the energy-efficient ULV (ultra-low voltage) Intel Core i5-7200U CPU, the laptop reaches the second position in our battery ranking table with just a few minutes shy to our current leader – the HP Spectre x360 13. This profile is aimed at designers who work with colors professionally, and for games and movies as well. Design and Gaming takes display panels to their limits, making them as accurate as possible in the sRGB IEC61966-2-1 standard for Web and HDTV, at white point D65. The Latitude 7480 is a high-quality and solid business laptop. Its ever-present coil whine could be a deal breaker for some, however. The next figure shows how well the display is able to reproduce really dark parts of an image, which is essential when watching movies or playing games in low ambient light.Office Work should be used mostly by users who spend most of the time looking at pieces of text, tables or just surfing. This profile aims to deliver better distinctness and clarity by keeping a flat gamma curve (2.20), native color temperature and perceptually accurate colors.
