Title: Dell Latitude 5310 2-in-1 convertible in review: 11-hour long-distance runner
Post by: Redaktion on December 31, 2020, 09:35:56
The manageable office convertible holds a few trump cards: It is quiet, sturdily built, has good input devices, a nice display, an excellent microphone, a fast card reader, and component maintenance is not a foreign concept either. Will you hold all the trump cards with the Latitude 5310?

So why are these still shipping with Comet Lake and not Tiger Lake? Because of vPro?

Dell 5000 series use Content Adaptive Brightness Control when on the battery, and this cannot be disabled.  I sent mine back because switching to a mostly dark content resulted in everything on screen going noticably dimmer, then switching back to a bright screen, everything got brighter.  With no input from me. 

No movies on the battery, it's too distracting, especially if you have dark scenes and white subtitles.

Incredibly annoying and completely intolerable that it cannot be disabled by the owner.

The Thunderbolt 3 port in these Latitudes as of 10th gen is still a half speed 20 Gbps port connected to an x2 PCIe lane.

Also, if you pick Thunderbolt, you don't get USB-C charging?
