Everything from its understated appearance, relatively convenient maintenance, robust security options, quiet operation, and above-average port selection fits in perfectly with everyday office requirements. Beyond all of that, we still reap the benefits of an extremely sturdy magnesium alloy construction, an uncommonly bright and vivid display, very fast CPU performance, and good keyboard/touchpad (on the separately-sold yet crucial $150 Travel Keyboard accessory). Finally, the optional Dell Active Pen ($60) satisfies the demands of a unique subset of users who require precise Wacom pressure-sensitive active stylus input. In many ways, the Latitude 5290 2-in-1 is the Surface Pro for the business world; its careful combination of consumer-grade luxury and business-grade sensibility adds up to a unique convertible that meets a very specific set of requirements. But there are no perfect devices, and the Latitude 5290 does come with its share of notable compromises. Chief among these is battery life, where the Latitude falls sharply behind some recent competitors using Kaby Lake chipset SoCs. It’s also encumbered by high operating temperatures (both surface and internal) under load, though the heat has been redistributed somewhat away from the edges of the device (where the hands would typically rest). The standard warranty is disappointingly short for a device with such a significant price tag. The lack of Thunderbolt will probably irk some users who desire versatile docking solutions. And finally, coming back to the significant price tag we mentioned a moment ago: it’s expensive, at $1,932 for today’s configuration (which, to be fair, does at least include the Travel Keyboard cover and Active Pen). The top competitors remain last year’s Latitude 5285 (which at least manages far better battery life than the 5290), the Microsoft Surface Pro 2017 (which is very good overall but impossible to upgrade and maintain from a hardware perspective), the HP Elite x2 1012 G2 (which is a very well-rounded device but notably harder to service), and the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Tablet Gen 2 (which is a good contender but hobbled by the constraints of passive cooling and other annoyances such as PWM).
