1. Remove the bottom plate

This device’s bottom panel is held in place by 7 captive Phillips-head screws. After you undo them, you only need to pry the panel with a plastic tool, and effortlessly lift it away.


2. Battery

The battery inside has a 42Wh capacity.


3. Мemory and storage

Unfortunately, there are no RAM upgrade slots. This leaves you with the 4 or 8GB you preordered the laptop with. On the bright side, there is one M.2 slot for storage.


4. Cooling system

Unsurprisingly, the cooling solution here comprises a medium-sized heat spreader. As you can see, there are no fans, which makes the operation of the device completely silent.

Dell Latitude 11 3190 2-in-1 in-depth review

There is one sentence on Dell's official Web page about this laptop that explains the purpose of the device almost perfectly. "Designed to be kid-proof". If this wasn't an in-depth review, this sole sentence would be enough to describe the 11-inch convertible we have today. However, we feel that the Latitude 11 3190 2-in-1 is a little more than that.In a world where many children are doing online classes, no matter their age, the versatility and ease of use of the laptops make them the perfect school companion. However, there is no point in buying expensive hardware for elementary school.[...]
