It’s impossible to review the Dell Latitude 7320 Detachable without referencing the Surface Pro 8. Each has advantages over the other, but they share so much of the same DNA that they could be sister products. Once you sweep away Dell’s annoying Special Offer discounts – are we really meant to believe that we’re saving almost £1,000? – and Microsoft’s even more annoying approach of charging extra for the keyboard and mouse, the products are priced near identically, too.
The obvious point of difference is the screen. Both include a 13in panel with a 3:2 aspect ratio, but Microsoft wins for sharpness thanks to its 2,880 x 1,920 resolution compared to the Dell’s 1,920 x 1,280. We aren’t convinced that many users would notice, though, as the 7320’s display remains sharp, and we could still happily view two windows side by side when working. Microsoft also wins for slickness thanks to its 120Hz refresh rate, but few people will complain about 60Hz here.
There are a couple of areas where the Latitude wins out. Its peak brightness of 493cd/m2 makes it easier to see outdoors, along with a higher 1,841:1 contrast ratio, and it also covers a fraction more of the cinematic DCI-P3 colour space (80% versus 77%). Neither display supports streaming HDR content, but we still thoroughly enjoyed watching the likes of Our Planet on this machine. Don’t expect too much from the speakers: treble dominates, especially at high volume, so music is best left on at low, background levels.
