Identify your model
How to read a Dell Latitude model number.
Latitude model numbers since around 2017 have four digits. The first digit is the series: 3 for entry, 5 for mainstream, 7 for premium, 9 for flagship. The second digit is usually the screen size: 3 for 13 inch, 4 for 14 inch, 5 for 15 inch. The last two digits show the generation.
The generation digits move up by ten each year. A Latitude x400 is from around 2019, x410 around 2020, x420 around 2021, x430 around 2022, x440 around 2023 and x450 around 2024. So a Latitude 5420 is a 14 inch mainstream laptop from around 2021, usually with an 11th generation Intel Core processor.
Older fleets carry an E prefix, such as the Latitude E7470 or E5470 from around 2016.
At CES 2025 Dell announced that new PCs would move to three names: Dell, Dell Pro and Dell Pro Max, with Base, Plus and Premium tiers. Latitude, Inspiron and XPS machines already in your fleet are still bought under their original names.
