Dell Latitude XT2 Review
If you are looking for a business- grade tablet PC, the Dell latitude XT2 might be one of the many selections out there you should consider. In this article, you‘ll see if this notebook is worth the high price tag of about $2,000 which makes it one of the most expensive machines available.
The Dell Latitude XT2 has one of those savvy business looks with a sharp design and exposed screws and joints. While it might not look as sleek and cool as other models, this baby is still a decent eye candy but is more for people that just want a good quality laptop that can do the job. The finish is a fingerprint repellent and with one wipe of a cloth, you can easily clean it efficiently. This machine is basically squareish and is relatively thin while not being a burden to carry. You could carry it under you arm and not even notice it is there! (I might be exaggerating a bit but you get my point right?) The build and chassis is very solid and resistant with very little signs of flex.
The screen is about 12.1 inches and the viewing angles are pretty wide while making the display quality higher than the average tablet pc. There is a little bit of distortion if you look at the screen in landscape mode and the backlight is average which means that you won’t get a super great read when basking in direct sunlight but you still get a decent view. The Dell notebook also has a touch screen but it doesn’t feel as responsive as other models like the Mac but writing with the pen is fluid and easy and there is also the presence of an eraser. You could definitely witness signs of lag when using this feature. When wanting to listen to audio or videos , I sincerely suggest getting a pair of headphones because there is only one speaker on one side of the notebook and the sound tend to distort when playing in bass or midrange.
The keyboard possesses slim keys that are still appropriately sized and enable to type you with relative ease and more speed with their shallower throw which means less time to wait for a response. The XT2 also has a touchpad and pointing stick but they feel a bit laggy compared to other models I have used before.
With its wide selection of ports , sturdy design and great display capacity , the Dell XT2 is a great notebook to get down to business but don’t forget that the touch screen feature , touchpad and pointing stick are a tiny bit laggy and unresponsive. There is also a small presence of distortion in landscape mode but I didn’t regard that like a huge inconvenience at all. Finally , I think the Dell notebook is a great buy unless you absolutely need the latest look for your computer.
