I ordered a Dell Latitude Laptop PC. It was delivered quickly and was well packaged. On checking, it was just like a brand new computer, in mint condition. On dealing with a minor problem, James sorted things out in no time at all. I have no hesitation in highly recommending this seller and would buy from again. All in all, a very pleasant purchase and I rate my dealings with the seller (James) as top rate. 10 out of 10. Thank you.

Bought a good level computer at an attractive price. Computer has performed well. The 15.6 screen means we can fully enjoy a zoom meeting with close family. The charging cable gave some trouble but was diagnosed by James and promptly replaced. If needed I would buy there again.

I bought a Dell laptop for home use to replace an ageing and frustratingly slow desktop computer.

The price was excellent and I now enjoy computing performance the way I want it to be, smooth and fast.

Can definitely recommend Discount Laptops.

A very sound purchase.

20 November, 2025

We bought a Dell Latitude laptop as an upgrade to Windows 11. For the price paid we were more than happy with the quality of the product provided, and this continued to be the case up until the point when disaster apparently struck, and the device refused to boot correctly. We returned the laptop free of charge under warranty for repair without quibble and, after a very short space of time, were delighted to welcome it back in full working order. Genuinely friendly, prompt, and efficient service – I can’t recommend these guys highly enough.

The Dell Latitude 5500 is built for people who need a laptop that just works, day after day, without fuss. Dell’s Latitude range has been a staple of corporate IT departments for years, and for good reason. These machines are designed to handle real workloads in real environments, from busy offices to coffee shops and conference rooms. The 5500 carries that reputation forward with a solid, professional chassis that feels reassuringly sturdy in your hands.

At its core sits an Intel Core i5-8365U processor, a quad-core chip with eight threads that can boost up to 4.1 GHz when you need the extra push. That translates to smooth, responsive performance whether you are juggling spreadsheets, running video calls, or working across multiple browser tabs at once. This is not a machine that will slow down on you halfway through a busy afternoon.

Paired with 8GB of DDR4 memory, the Latitude 5500 handles everyday multitasking with ease. You can keep your email client, browser, and productivity apps all running without the system grinding to a halt. The 256GB SSD means your files, apps, and operating system load quickly. Boot times are fast, file transfers are snappy, and there are no moving parts to worry about, which also makes the drive more reliable over the long term.

The 15.6 inch Full HD display gives you a crisp, clear picture at 1920 x 1080 resolution. Text looks sharp, colours are accurate, and the generous screen size means you have plenty of room to work with documents, spreadsheets, or side by side windows. Intel UHD 620 integrated graphics handles everyday visual tasks, video playback, and light photo editing without breaking a sweat.

Connectivity is a real strong point on the Latitude 5500. You get a generous spread of ports and slots covering everything from USB to wired networking to external display output. The numbered diagram in the product images shows you exactly where each port sits on the machine.

  1. External uSIM Card Tray (optional)
  2. uSD Reader
  3. Universal Audio Jack
  4. USB 3.2 Gen 1
  5. USB 3.2 Gen 1 with PowerShare

  10. USB Type C 3.2 Gen 2 with Power Delivery and DisplayPort (Optional Thunderbolt 3)
  11. USB 3.2 Gen 1
  12. Smart Card Reader (optional)

Whether you are connecting to a monitor at your desk, plugging into a wired network for a more stable connection, or hooking up a USB mouse and external drive at the same time, this laptop has you covered. The USB-C port is especially useful as it supports Power Delivery, DisplayPort output, and fast data transfer all through a single cable. Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth keep you connected wirelessly too.

This unit has been professionally refurbished. That means it has been stripped down, cleaned, fully tested across all key components, and loaded with a fresh, licensed install of Windows 11. It is ready to use straight out of the box, with a 1 year warranty and 30 day money back guarantee for complete peace of mind.

At 1.82 kg, the Latitude 5500 is comfortable enough to carry between meetings or pack into a bag for the commute. It strikes a solid balance between screen size and portability, giving you a proper full size working experience without weighing you down.
