The two devices have roughly the same footprint. The HP EliteBook 850 is our only 15-inch comparison device and it weighs just 100 g (~3.5 oz) less than the Latitude 5590.

The Latitude 5590 is not exactly lightweight at 2.0 kg (~4.4 lb), but it is about as heavy as its competitors. The display cannot be opened one-handed because of the low counterweight of the base. The two display hinges work well and open to 180 degrees.

Despite this lack of rigidity, the case is certified to the US military standard MIL-STD 810G, which means that the Latitude 5590 should easily withstand daily work routine. Thankfully the casing around the display is more robust, although the display is visibly affected when we applied pressure to the display case. We can visibly twist it with little effort and it yields in the middle when we apply pressure with our fingers. The all-black case looks premium, even though we would have preferred a stronger base plate. To evaluate generational improvements, we will be comparing the Latitude 5590 against its predecessor, the Latitude 5580. In this review, we will be using the Fujitsu LifeBook U757, the HP EliteBook 850 G4, and the Lenovo ThinkPad T570 as comparison models. There are more powerful and equally more expensive configurations available, such as the €2,000 (~$2,460) model that is equipped with an Intel Core i7-8650U processor and 16 GB of DDR4 RAM.

The configuration is complemented by a matte IPS display, all of which is currently available online at €1,100 (~$1,355). Our test device is equipped with an Intel Core i5-8250U processor, 8 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD, the combination of which offers plenty of power and speedy performance. The Latitude 5590 is powered by a choice of Intel 7th and 8th generation processors. Consequently, the Latitude 5590 can be optimally configured for specific business requirements without having to break the bank. The Dell Latitude 5590 is a modern business device that should be able to persuade potential buyers with its many configuration options.
