While searching the internet you looking for “laptop repair near me”? Have you ever considered fixing it yourself? Replacing the palmrest on a laptop can pretty show you how to replace any component since it requires moving everything over.  The palmrest is basically the chassis of the laptop. The Dell Latitude 5420 laptop is commonly used in businesses and schools. It was released in Jan 2021.

Various versions of the laptop are available. Starting lower tier, the 11th generation Intel Core i5-1135G7 comes with an 8MB cache, four cores, eight threads, and up to a 4.20GHz boost clock speed. Going high tier we have the 11th generation Intel Core i7-1145G offered in this model which has the same specs but with a higher boost clock speed of 4.40GHz.

The laptop is actually pretty rugged. I have seen this one in a lot of conditions and users are definitely rough with their laptops. As a matter of fact, Dell even has a special rugged version of the laptop. The rugged model features a stronger case and extra bumpers around the laptop’s frame. You also get a shock-mounted hard drive to protect from vibration. It even has a handle. If you plan on taking your laptop into a harsh environment, the rugged 5420 is an idea to try out.
