BGDell Latitude 7390 13.3-inch lightweight ultraportable business laptop from the Latitude 7000 series
The Dell Latitude 7390 is the 13.3-inch member of Dell's premium Latitude 7000 series from the Kaby Lake-R wave: a light carbon fiber ultraportable for people who carry their laptop everywhere. As a refurbished business laptop from ITR Bulgaria, it is a sensible choice for companies on Dell infrastructure and for anyone after the premium 13-inch class with memory that can still be upgraded.
Benefits
Why the Dell Latitude 7390 makes sense as a refurbished business laptop from the premium Latitude series
Premium Latitude 7000 series
Latitude 7000 sits at the top of Dell's business line, above the mainstream 5000 and well above the entry 3000. The Dell Latitude 7390 is its 13.3-inch member from the Kaby Lake-R wave.
Carbon fiber soft-touch chassis
One lid option is woven carbon fiber, the material Dell uses to set its premium Latitudes apart from the plastic series. Lighter than aluminium and soft to the touch, it can still show fingerprints.
Starting under 1.2 kg with a 13.3-inch screen
Starting weight is around 1.18 kg on the carbon fiber configurations, so you carry it all day without feeling the bag. The aluminium variants are slightly heavier.
SO-DIMM memory up to 16 GB per catalogue — upgrade after purchase
A single SO-DIMM slot lets you replace the RAM module after purchase; Dell lists configurations up to 16 GB. DDR4 runs at 2133 MHz with 7th gen Core and 2400 MHz with 8th gen. That is a concrete difference from a later premium model, the Latitude 7420, with soldered memory. A genuine reserve for teams that buy for years.
Kaby Lake-R quad-core platform
8th gen Intel Core (with 7th gen and vPro options), the generation in which the U-series chips moved to four cores. Plenty of platform for documents, a browser full of tabs, ERP/CRM and video calls.
ExpressCharge — 80% in about an hour
42 Wh and 60 Wh batteries come in variants with Dell ExpressCharge: about 80% in an hour with the laptop switched off and a compatible system and battery. The 60 Wh Long Life Cycle variant does not support ExpressCharge. A practical top-up between two meetings in different offices.
USB-C docking, Thunderbolt 3 as an option
The USB-C port with DisplayPort and optional Thunderbolt 3 connects a dock, external monitors and peripherals with one cable when the equipment is compatible. The Dell WD15 uses USB-C, while the TB16 requires a configuration with Thunderbolt 3. Two USB-A 3.1 ports, HDMI and a built-in RJ45 Ethernet port round out the connectivity at the desk.
720p camera with a physical shutter
The camera covers video calls, and the physical shutter closes the lens mechanically when you are not using it, with no software and no doubt about whether it is off.
Business security and manageability
TPM 2.0 as standard, optional ControlVault 2 for protected credential storage, an optional separate fingerprint reader, and an optional SafeScreen privacy panel.
Value as a refurbished laptop
As a used laptop from the premium Latitude series, the Dell Latitude 7390 gives access to the premium 13-inch class at a more sensible price, with a real warranty from ITR Bulgaria.
Dell Latitude 7390: the 13.3-inch lightweight carbon fiber premium model of the Kaby Lake-R wave
Dell's business portfolio is arranged as a ladder that only makes sense once you see all of it: Latitude 3000 is entry level, Latitude 5000 is mainstream, Latitude 7000 is the premium model, and Dell later placed the ultrapremium 9000 above it. The Dell Latitude 7390 is the 13.3-inch member of that premium line from the Kaby Lake-R wave: a light carbon fiber ultraportable that starts under 1.2 kg. The positioning shows up in specifics, not marketing: premium materials, a serious business-security package, and SO-DIMM memory that most of the later premium models in the series no longer have.
One thing sets the Latitude 7000 apart from the cheaper series the moment you pick the machine up: the soft-touch carbon fiber surface. Dell has used woven carbon on the lid of its premium Latitudes for years, to separate them from the plastic shells of the mainstream class and because the material does real work. Carbon fiber is lighter than aluminium at comparable strength, which is why the 13.3-inch Dell Latitude 7390 stays under 1.2 kg without the chassis flexing when you lift it by one corner. The soft-touch finish does not shine or hold fingerprints the way glossy plastic does, and after two years of being carried through bags and across desks it looks better than a glossy shell does after two weeks. For someone whose laptop travels with them every day, that is the difference between a machine that visibly ages and one that simply keeps looking the part. The construction also passes MIL-STD-810G durability testing, the standard corporate IT departments expect from a premium line.
It was with this generation that the choice of material gained a new emphasis. Familiar small premium Latitude variants were dressed in carbon-fiber weave; with the Dell Latitude 7390 Dell added fully aluminum chassis versions — cooler to the touch, more classical in look, a gram or two heavier. A minor option at first glance that said something important about the direction: the premium class stopped imposing a single idea of an “expensive machine” and let the buyer choose its character. Later generations of the line turned that choice into a trademark.
Under the lid, the Dell Latitude 7390 comes from the generation in which Intel's 15-watt U-series chips first went from two cores to four: Kaby Lake-R (8th gen), with older Kaby Lake (7th gen) options on the more affordable configurations and vPro on the business models. For everyday document work, a browser with many tabs, ERP/CRM systems and video calls, that is plenty of platform. The more interesting part for long-term use is the memory: the 7390 uses one SO-DIMM slot with DDR4 (2133 MHz with 7th gen and 2400 MHz with 8th gen), and Dell lists configurations up to 16 GB, so RAM can be upgraded after purchase. That is something some later premium models in the series, such as the Latitude 7420, lost when Dell moved to soldered memory for the sake of thinness. The 42 Wh battery (with an optional 60 Wh) and Dell ExpressCharge bring about 80% back in an hour with the laptop switched off, a compatible system and battery, and a suitable bundled adapter, the safety net between two meetings in different offices. The USB-C port with DisplayPort and optional Thunderbolt 3 handles a compatible dock, external monitors and peripherals over one cable, and the 720p camera with a physical shutter covers video calls without leaving an open eye when the lid is closed.
The trade-offs are clear. The 13.3-inch screen gives less room for working across several windows than the 14-inch Dell Latitude 7490 from the same generation, so if your day is spent in wide spreadsheets, the larger sibling is the more logical pick. The machine keeps a built-in full-size RJ45 Ethernet port, but its TB3 sits one generation behind the Thunderbolt 4 of the newer Latitudes. In the direct 13.3-inch premium class the natural rival is the HP EliteBook 830 G5, close on platform and security but from a different ecosystem; if you prefer a smaller screen, the 12.5-inch Dell Latitude 7290 or the Lenovo ThinkPad X280 shrink the diagonal without shrinking the body. As a refurbished laptop from ITR Bulgaria, the Dell Latitude 7390 has a concrete advantage: the Latitude 7000 was built for a long corporate life, with standardised components and good serviceability, and the SO-DIMM slot means you can raise the memory instead of replacing the machine. That turns used laptops from this series into a business-class laptop with a real warranty, a machine where you know exactly what you are getting after the technical audit.
Who it's for
Scenarios where the Dell Latitude 7390 makes the strongest sense
Traveling professionals who value weight
A sales rep or auditor who switches between several sites in a day feels every gram saved in the bag. Under 1.2 kg and a carbon fiber chassis make the Dell Latitude 7390 an easy companion for constant movement.
Hybrid work on the move
One day at home, one in the office, one at a client site. A compatible dock assembles a full workstation with one cable over USB-C; Thunderbolt 3 is optional on the 7390 and is needed for a dock such as the Dell TB16. ExpressCharge allows a top-up between two meetings: about 80% in an hour with the laptop switched off and a compatible system and battery.
Consultants and managers
For people who open a presentation in a different office every week, the premium chassis and restrained black design hold up in front of a client. Security (TPM 2.0, optional fingerprint, optional privacy panel) keeps company data protected on the move.
Long-term use with upgrades
A company that buys laptops for five years values replaceable RAM: on the 7390 a single SO-DIMM slot allows an upgrade by swapping the module, up to 16 GB per Dell's catalogue, instead of replacing the whole machine. This is exactly where a refurbished Dell Latitude 7390 makes the most sense.
Model highlights
Premium Latitude 7000 series
Dell's premium business line, positioned against the HP EliteBook 800 and Lenovo ThinkPad T / X13. Above the mainstream Latitude 5000 and well above the entry 3000.
Carbon fiber / aluminium chassis
Soft-touch carbon fiber lid (with an aluminium option), lighter than aluminium at comparable strength. The construction passes MIL-STD-810G durability testing.
SO-DIMM DDR4 up to 16 GB per catalogue
One SO-DIMM slot with DDR4: 2133 MHz with 7th gen Core and 2400 MHz with 8th gen. Dell lists configurations up to 16 GB; the RAM module can be replaced after purchase. The later premium Latitude 7420 is an example of a model with soldered memory.
Kaby Lake / Kaby Lake-R platform
8th gen Intel Core with quad-core U-series chips (7th gen Kaby Lake and vPro options). Integrated HD Graphics 620 on 7th gen and UHD Graphics 620 on 8th gen, no discrete GPU, aimed at office tasks.
42 / 60 Wh — variants with ExpressCharge
42 Wh and 60 Wh batteries with Dell ExpressCharge are available: about 80% in an hour with the laptop switched off. A compatible system and battery are needed; the 60 Wh Long Life Cycle does not support the feature.
USB-C with optional Thunderbolt 3 + USB-A + HDMI
USB-C with DisplayPort and optional Thunderbolt 3 for compatible docks and external monitors, two USB-A 3.1 Gen 1, HDMI 1.4, a microSD reader, an audio jack and a built-in RJ45 Ethernet port.
Business security
TPM 2.0, optional ControlVault 2 for protected credentials, an optional separate fingerprint reader, and an optional SafeScreen privacy panel for work in public places.
A sound choice as a refurbished laptop
The Latitude 7000 was built for a long corporate life, with standardised components, good serviceability and SO-DIMM upgrades. That leaves the Dell Latitude 7390 well placed as a used laptop after refurbishment.
Refurbished by ITR Bulgaria: what value do you get?
Buying a refurbished business-class laptop makes the strongest sense when the device has gone through a standardised internal refurbishment process and arrives with a real warranty. That is how used laptops become refurbished laptops — a practical, predictable and professional alternative to new entry-level machines, or a far more sensible purchase than new premium equivalents.
- ✓ Technical audit and cosmetic assessment of the device according to an internal standard
- ✓ Refurbishment, cleaning, quality improvement and configuration to standard for repeat business use
- ✓ Use of original software and a prepared configuration appropriate to the model
- ✓ Packaging, real warranty and ongoing support for the model from ITR Bulgaria

Additional information
Where does the Dell Latitude 7390 fit in the series? ▼
The Dell Latitude 7390 belongs to Latitude 7000, Dell's premium business line. In the Latitude hierarchy, 7000 sits above 5000 (mainstream) and well above 3000 (entry), and Dell later added the ultrapremium 9000 above it. That positioning makes the series a direct competitor to the HP EliteBook 800 and the Lenovo ThinkPad T / Lenovo ThinkPad X13.
The 13.3-inch screen is the middle diagonal in the Latitude 7290 / 7390 / 7490 generation: between the 12.5-inch Dell Latitude 7290 and the 14-inch Dell Latitude 7490. The 7290 and 7390 bases have the same width and depth, so the smaller screen does not mean a smaller body. The Dell Latitude 7390 is a standard laptop with FHD variants with or without touch; for 360-degree hinges and tablet mode, Dell offers the separate Dell Latitude 7390 2-in-1.
The Dell Latitude 7390 is not ideal if… ▼
- You need a larger screen for wide spreadsheets or multi-window work — the 14-inch Dell Latitude 7490 from the same generation is more logical.
- You want a 2-in-1 design with tablet mode — the Dell Latitude 7390 2-in-1 is a separate model with 360-degree hinges and support for an optional active pen. If you only need a touch screen, the standard 7390 has touch variants too.
- You need a discrete graphics card for video editing or 3D work — the Dell Latitude 7390 is integrated graphics only; for those tasks, look at the Dell Precision series.
- You want the newest connectivity (Thunderbolt 4, Wi-Fi 6, an IR camera for Windows Hello) — the newer Latitude 7000 generations add those; the Dell Latitude 7390 is from the Kaby Lake-R wave.
- You need a guaranteed specific configuration (a particular CPU, RAM, SSD, display or battery) — configurations vary, so it is important to check the specific unit before purchase.
Choosing the right size and form factor ▼
13.3-inch class (Dell Latitude 7390): the compact balance — enough screen for documents and video calls at a starting weight under 1.2 kg, depending on configuration. Suited to daily carrying and field work.
12.5-inch class (Dell Latitude 7290): a smaller screen, but the same body width and depth as the 7390. Dell lists a starting weight of 1.19 kg, against 1.17 kg for the 7390. The trade-off is less physical screen area, with no automatic saving in bag space.
14-inch class (Dell Latitude 7490): more room for spreadsheets and multi-window work, slightly heavier. More logical when the screen matters more than the weight.
Form factor: the Dell Latitude 7390 is a standard laptop without 360-degree hinges. If you need touch and tablet mode, the Dell Latitude 7390 2-in-1 is the separate build for that scenario.
Alternative models ▼
Within Dell:
Dell Latitude 7290 — the 12.5-inch version from the same generation. A similar platform, with the same body width and depth as the 7390; the starting weight is 1.19 kg against 1.17 kg for the 7390. The trade-off is a smaller screen, not necessarily saved space in the bag.
Dell Latitude 7490 — the 14-inch sibling. More screen area for spreadsheets and multi-window work, slightly heavier. Logical when the screen matters more than the weight.
Dell Latitude 7380 — the previous generation (mostly 7th gen Kaby Lake). A more affordable refurbished option, but on an older platform.
Dell Latitude 7300 — the next generation. A more current platform, usually at a higher price as a refurbished laptop.
Cross-brand alternatives (13.3″ / 12.5″ premium class):
HP EliteBook 830 G5 — the direct 13.3-inch premium competitor from the same period. Close on platform and security, with a different ecosystem (HP). The Dell Latitude 7390 offers a carbon fiber chassis and lower weight.
Lenovo ThinkPad X280 — a 12.5-inch premium Lenovo ThinkPad. Classic Lenovo ThinkPad keyboard and TrackPoint, a different working philosophy. Logical if you prefer that way of working and the smaller screen; its body, however, is slightly wider and deeper than the 7390's. On the X280 the memory is soldered, while on the 7390 the RAM module can be replaced.
Note: do not compare the Dell Latitude 7390 with the Dell Latitude 3000 or the HP ProBook 400 — they are a different, lower business class with a different target group.
Refurbished by ITR Bulgaria: what value do you get? ▼
The Dell Latitude 7390 is a model where refurbishment by ITR Bulgaria has clear logic. The Latitude 7000 series was designed with a long corporate lifecycle in mind — components are standardised, documentation is available, and the SO-DIMM slots and accessible serviceability allow professional refurbishment where you know what you are getting.
After refurbishment, the used laptop is prepared for repeat business use: cleaning, configuration, original software and packaging with a real warranty. For companies equipping their staff, that is the difference between an unchecked used laptop and a refurbished business laptop with real support from ITR Bulgaria.
Frequently asked questions ▼
Is the Dell Latitude 7390 a good choice as a used laptop?
Yes, and for a concrete reason. Latitude 7000 is Dell's premium business line, designed for corporate use with a long lifecycle. The carbon fiber chassis and the SO-DIMM upgrade make it especially well suited to refurbishment. As a refurbished laptop from the premium class, the Dell Latitude 7390 gives access to a higher-class 13-inch machine than a new budget laptop at a similar price.
Can the memory on the Dell Latitude 7390 be upgraded?
Yes. Unlike some later premium models in the series, such as the Latitude 7420 with soldered memory, the Dell Latitude 7390 has one SO-DIMM slot with DDR4 (2133 MHz with 7th gen Core, 2400 MHz with 8th gen), and Dell lists configurations up to 16 GB. That means RAM can be raised after purchase without replacing the whole machine — a rarity in the 13-inch premium class. Always check the specific unit for the installed memory.
What is the difference between the Dell Latitude 7390 and the Dell Latitude 7490?
Mainly the size. The Dell Latitude 7390 is the 13.3-inch model — lighter and more compact; the Dell Latitude 7490 is the 14-inch sibling from the same generation, with more screen area for spreadsheets and multi-window work, at a slightly higher weight. The platform and business features are very close — the choice is between portability and screen.
Is the Dell Latitude 7390 suitable for equipping employees?
Yes — the series was designed for exactly this. Latitude supports centralised IT management through the Dell Client Command Suite, and TPM 2.0, ControlVault 2 and the optional fingerprint reader and privacy panel cover corporate security requirements. As a refurbished business laptop from ITR Bulgaria, it comes with a warranty and support.
What configurations are found on the Dell Latitude 7390?
A wide range: Intel Core i3 / i5 / i7 from the 7th or 8th generation (some with vPro), RAM from 4 to 16 GB in a single SO-DIMM slot per Dell's catalogue, an NVMe SSD of varying capacity, an HD or FHD display (with an optional Privacy Screen), a 42 or 60 Wh battery, and an optional fingerprint reader. It is important to check the specific unit.
