Does Dell have a 2200 dollar laptop screen that has 225 threads and 57% sRGB? It's 2019 !! You won't remember this fact in the final verdict? This does not seem objective to me!

So wait, let me get this straight. They use integrated graphics, a mobile non-desktop CPU. And they still somehow managed to get temperatures above 45C?

In comparison, the competing laptops have better specs/performance, lower price and are not portable grills!

Did dell maybe fire their thermal management team to save costs? Cause their terrible thermals is across the board!

exactly. but this is a common problem for ALL reviewers. i never heard "dont buy this s***", always "well..something here something there maybe better maybe i prefer that..slightly..not sure "
i never heard "50db is 3 times louder than 40db. just think of it, 2 fps less/3 times quieter or 2 fps more/3 times louder? everyone who choose  the option with more fps is an idiot"
..
229 nits is acceptable only for cheapest home machines.
there are no reasons to buy a 2k+ buisiness machine with such screen. all the features and options and advantages doesnt matter at all.

How can you give 83% to a laptop that freezes because of heat problems and even give that same laptop 92% for temperature?
A business laptop with many options... unless you want to use it's processor?

The editorial office is also afraid to write down the negatives because it received a borrowed laptop for review. But what are these reviews for us then?

"replace the SSD, for example. The latter is built into our test model in the M.2 format and can also be replaced by a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive. However, you cannot use both, since the M.2 SSD has to be placed across the free SATA slot."
That is stupid coming from Dell. One of the advantages of 15" laptops was to fit an extra disk inside.

Can Dell Latitude 5500 USB port connected to an external monitor using ordinary USB to VGA adaptor. I need a laptop to be able to connect to 2 external monitors (1 from the HDMI port and another from the USB C port)
Also how about Dell 5593 laptop?
