Good laptop, memory is non upgradable so get 16GB or 32GB versions. I purchased 3 similar refurb. Dell laptops over the last year or so and no issues so far.

Second this. One key gripe with the 7420 platform is the move to non-upgradeable memory and integral Wi-Fi module (Wi-Fi 6 via the AX201). See details here [notebookcheck.net].

The other complaint I have about this design is the carbon fiber lid, which doesn't seem to resist wear as well as the more traditional lids. Purely a cosmetic problem, but don't be surprised if a model you receive is functional but has more scuffs on the lid than you might expect for Grade A.

Good luck!
Jon

Dell Latitude 7-series is a bit better.

Two Latitude 5-series laptops that we bought had system board failures in 1 & 10 months after the 90-day warranty expired with FedEx Recycling ("Dell Refurbished")... est. $600 total loss. It was well documented on Reddit and Dell Communities by I.T. managers who purchased hundreds of these units.

Investigate any potential model purchase thoroughly on Reddit, Dell Support Communities, etc. Take the responses from I.T. managers very seriously as they support thousands of Latitudes over many years. Dell Business Leasing ships these in very large quantities to government and business employees for 2-3 year leases.

Bought a non touch 7420 for my son earlier in mid 2024, i7-1185 cpu, 16gh ram. Similar 50% off coupon, but I think it was a bit cheaper. Came with the 100% 400-nit display and high capacity battery. Battery still showed 97% against spec capacity. Very happy with that purchase.

At least Dell Pro will actually be a business oriented product. Nothing "Pro" about most of the "Pro" products out there.

There seems to be no upcharge for Touch on the
Dell Latitude 7420 Touch
This is competitive with the MicroCenter In Store Only just posted at $400, and quality refurbs are planet friendly.
"The Dell Latitude 7420 Touch is a strong contender among these laptops, particularly due to its powerful processor, ample RAM, and excellent battery life. If you prioritize portability (half pound lighter, for the smaller screen/form factor) and professional (Win 10 Pro) features."

Think of it as cost savings passed on to you😉 You get to pick you own OS and install it bloatware free.

Had bought "Dell Precision 5540 Touch" last week and it showed "Processor Fan Failure" in the first boot itself. The customer support sends a replacement fan and video on how to replace it. I personally did not want to do it and now I am asking them to send a replacement laptop.

This is definitely the Dell Refurbished support model. If, for example, your testing finds that the battery capacity is low enough (below 80% of original charge capacity) then they're going to ship you a battery free of charge but expect you to do the replacement.

Dell Refurbished deals can be a solid value, particularly if you're looking to buy a business platform laptop, but they require research, active testing upon arrival, and sometimes even a bit of technical know-how and/or willingness to fight for a free return.

Good luck!
Jon

Wow, Dell asking a customer to replace a processor fan on a laptop?

You can filter for the specs you want, and to include OS. It does look like it costs a little extra.
