Durham, NC, December 16, 2023 –To help keep your hybrid workforce, road warriors, and executives productive, business laptops need to enable their users to thrive in the new work-from-everywhere environment. To assess how two different laptops provided features and resources for modern workforce productivity, Principled Technologies conducted hands-on tests on a Dell Latitude 7340 Ultralight and a 13-inch MacBook Air (2022).
From the report: “Investing in ultralight business laptops that deliver the performance employees need to finish tasks quickly no matter where they are, the ports they need to work in shared and public environments, and the built-in privacy features they need to keep sensitive work private is key to maximizing output. We found that a Dell Latitude 7340 Ultralight powered by an Intel vPro with Intel Core i7-1365u processor received higher general performance benchmark scores both plugged in and unplugged and was noticeably cooler while running a sustained, processor-intensive workload than a 13-inch Apple MacBook Air (2022) powered by an M2 processor. The Dell Latitude 7340 also provided more port types and built-in privacy features than the 13-inch Apple MacBook Air (2022).”
