Part of a bulk order and limited stock available . Dell’s Latitude line of productivity-oriented laptops have long been popular with the business crowd because they provide a strong combination of performance and endurance with an added dose of style to boot. The 14-inch Dell Latitude E6430 continues this rich tradition by offering strong performance, an attractive, durable metal chassis and more than 10 hours of battery life. article continued below Design and Durability The Dell Latitude E6430 has the same attractive gunmetal gray aluminum lid, matte chrome body and angular sides as its predecessor, the Dell Latitude E6420. With a snazzy design that reminds us a sci-fi spaceship, the E6430 stands out in the world of staid black-and-gray business notebooks. Like all the current members of Dell’s Latitude E6400 line, the E6430 is built for durability with a “Tri-Metal” chassis that consists of a magnesium alloy frame, reinforced steel hinges, a matte chrome bumper, a protective LCD seal and a spill-resistant keyboard. The notebook has been MIL-STD 810G tested, which means it should be able to withstand extreme temperatures, dust and vibrations better than most notebooks. At 5.4 pounds and 13.9 x 9.5 x 1.3 inches, the Dell Latitude E6430 feels bulky for a 14-inch notebook. The ThinkPad T430 is smaller, thinner and lighter at 5.2 pounds and 13.8 x 9.1 x 1.2 inches. The Fujitsu LifeBook U772 (12.9 x 8.9 x 0.7 inches, 3 pounds) is much lighter, but that 14-inch Ultrabook isn’t nearly as rugged as this Dell or the T430. MORE: Laptop Buying Guide: 8 Essential Tips Keyboard The Dell Latitude E6430’s backlit, spill-resistant keyboard provides a strong level of tactile response. Combine that with an very comfortable soft-touch plastic palm rest and you have one of the best typing experiences on a notebook. We were able to achieve a strong score of 92 words per minute with just a 1 percent error rate on the Ten Thumbs Typing Test, well above our 80 word-per-minute average. By hitting Fn + right arrow, we were able to configure the keyboard’s backlighting, choosing between five modes: off, 25 percent, 50 percent, 75 percent and 100 percent brightness. Even at 100 percent, the light was not particularly bright, and it shined up from the crevices between the keys. Touchpad and Pointing Stick The 3.2 x 1.75-inch touchpad provided accurate navigation around the desktop, and even provided reliable multitouch gesture support. Pinch-to-zoom, rotate and three-finger flicks all worked smoothly. The two discrete buttons offered just the right amount of feedback. In addition to its touchpad, the Latitude E6430 includes another navigation option: a pointing stick between its G and H keys. While we’re huge fans of the TrackPoint sticks that Lenovo puts on its ThinkPads, Dell’s rubber nub sits too low relative to the keys around it, making it uncomfortable to touch. If Dell wants to continue offering pointing sticks on its business notebooks, it needs to revisit this annoying design. Heat The Dell Latitude E6430 stayed pleasantly cool throughout our tests. After 15 minutes of streaming a video at full screen, the touchpad measured just 80 degrees, the keyboard was a mere 82 degrees and the bottom clocked in at 87 degrees Fahrenheit. We consider temperatures below 95 degrees comfortable. Display and Audio The 1600 x 900 matte 14-inch screen provided bright, sharp images and solid viewing angles, though its colors seemed muted at times. At 237 lux on our light meter, the Latitude E6430’s screen is brighter than the 203 lux thin-and-light notebook category average. The configuration of the T430 we reviewed had a 1366 x 768 display, and was rather dim at 147 lux. When we watched 1080p QuickTime trailers for both “The Avengers” and “The Expendables 2,” most images stayed true at greater than 45 degrees, though dark scenes occasionally washed out. Even viewed head-on, colors like the red in Iron Man’s armor or the blue in Captain America’s suit seemed dull, and blacks in particular seemed washed out and noisy. The Latitude E6430’s dual, front-facing speakers provide accurate audio that’s good enough for watching videos and presentations, but not to serve as your stereo. When we played Patrice Rushen’s bass-heavy “Forget Me Nots,” sound was clear and smooth, but not particularly rich. The Scorpions’ heavy metal “No One Like You” did not sound distorted, but it was hollow and monotone with little separation of sound between speakers. In both
