The Dell 3490 is a reliable 14″ business laptop designed for professionals and students who need a balance of performance and practicality. With a quad-core i5 8th Gen processor and 8 GB of RAM, it handles multitasking and office applications with ease.

The 256 GB SSD ensures quick boot times and responsive performance, and users have the flexibility to upgrade both RAM and storage. The Full HD anti-glare display provides decent clarity for work and media, while the keyboard and touchpad are built for daily productivity.

The port selection is one of its strong points, with both modern (USB-C, HDMI) and legacy (VGA, Ethernet) options available, making it compatible with a wide range of devices and work environments. The battery is efficient enough to cover most of a workday, and the build quality is solid, though slightly bulkier than newer ultra-thin laptops.
