DELL Latitude 3380 business laptop, 13.3in HD Display, Intel Core i3-6006U, 8GB DDR4, 500GB, Webcam, Windows 11 Pro (Renewed)

Design

The Dell Latitude  for Education has a utilitarian design that is meant more for protection than to show off. The entire chassis is made of gray plastic with rubberized black edges for shock absorption, and the lid is unadorned, with the exception of Dell's logo and an LED light.

The light glows to let teachers know when the notebook is connected to the internet, but there is no app to change the light's color like there is on the Dell Chromebook 11. Raising the lid reveals the 11.6-inch, crisp display surrounded by a thick, nice bezel and an island-style keyboard.

However, Dell claims that the Latitude  is MIL-STD-tested against drops, shocks and extreme temperatures, so it should be able to handle life in a backpack just fine.

Ports

The sides of the Latitude are lined with the bare-essential ports. On the left side of the notebook are an Ethernet jack, an HDMI output and a USB 3.0 port. On the right are a headphone jack, an SD card slot, a USB 2.0 port and a lock slot.

Display

The 11-inch, Crisp clear display on the Latitude is dim. I had to pump up the brightness to view the screen comfortably when I watched the trailer for Doctor Strange. In the video, a sorcerer's yellow cloak didn't pop against gray buildings, like it does on better screens, and it was harder to make out the cracks and deformities around the evil Kaecilius' eyes.

The Latitude's display covers 66 percent of the RGB color gamut, outperforming other 11-inch notebooks, including the Idea Pad 100s (62 percent), Aspire Cloud book 11 (59 percent) and Chromebook C202 (58 percent). With a Delta-E color accuracy score of 3.8 (0 is best), the colors on the Latitude 11's screen are precise. The Idea pad (3.3) and Chromebook C202 (2.8) had lower scores than the Latitude .
