Dell Latitude 5420 Rugged (i7-8650U, AMD RX 540) Laptop Review

[Redaktion]

Rugged Notebooks aren't known for their svelte profiles, but the Dell Latitude 5420 Rugged tries to trim things down while maintaining the durability of the Latitude Rugged line. While there are some sacrifices compared to other rugged laptops, the Latitude 5420 Rugged is an overall convincing machine.

Is the USB port on the right side recessed? I mean enough to fit a mouse dongle with the latched closed.

That would be a notable feature, one that I only recollect seeing only once before, on the Acer Predator Triton 700.

Hi anon,

The right-side USB port is indeed recessed enough for a wireless dongle. I'm able to fit a Logitech wireless mouse adapter in there and close the door without issue.
