What does the warranty cover?
Our warranty covers all hardware faults, but please note it doesn’t cover accidental damage or software issues. However, we’re here to help with technical support for those matters!
What is a refurbished device?
A refurbished device is a pre-owned item that has been restored to meet high-quality standards. At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.
Unlike used items, which lack guarantees and rely solely on the seller's word regarding condition, refurbished devices come with assurance of quality and reliability.
What payment options are available?
We offer a variety of payment options to make your shopping experience as convenient as possible! You can pay using all major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, Afterpay, Zip Pay, and PayPal. If you prefer, we also accept bank deposits and even cash for in-store purchases!
Dell Latitude 5490 Laptop 14" i7-8650U 8GB 256GB SSD FHD Backl...
At a Glance
We ensure secure processing of your payment information and do not retain or have access to your credit card details.
A professionally refurbished 14" business-class notebook built around Intel's quad-core Core i7-8650U vPro processor, 8GB DDR4 memory and a 256GB M.2 SSD, with a Full HD anti-glare display and backlit keyboard. Runs Windows 11 Pro and is backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
For everyday office work this machine sits comfortably above the mid-range. The Core i7-8650U is the top processor Dell offered in the 5490 chassis, and its four cores make a real difference the moment you stop doing one thing at a time — a Teams call running while a large Excel model recalculates, or twenty Chrome tabs open alongside Outlook and a PDF viewer. Turbo Boost 2.0 lifts a single core to 4.2GHz for short bursts, which is exactly the behaviour that makes web pages and application launches feel snappy rather than merely adequate.
The 256GB SSD is where the perceived speed comes from. Cold boot to a usable Windows 11 Pro desktop takes seconds, applications open on the first click, and file searches return immediately. With 8GB of DDR4 you have enough headroom for a normal business workload — browser, email, Office, a video call — and if your workload is heavier, the empty second memory slot means an upgrade to 16GB is a five-minute job with a single screwdriver.
Graphics are handled by integrated Intel UHD 620, which is the right fit for its purpose: multiple monitors, 4K video playback, video conferencing and general business software all run without complaint. It is not a gaming or 3D rendering machine, and it does not pretend to be. Where it does excel is portability and endurance — roughly 1.6kg with a 68Wh four-cell ExpressCharge battery, so it goes into a bag easily and gets through a working day of documents and email away from a power point.

| Grade | What to expect |
| A — Excellent | Excellent to very good cosmetic condition. May have light scratches or other minor blemishes. Screen free of visible marks in normal use. Battery holds 70% or more of original capacity. |
| B — Good | Good cosmetic condition with visible signs of previous use — scratches, scuffs or wear to the lid, palmrest or base. Fully functional and fully tested. Battery holds 50–70% of original capacity. |
Every unit is functionally tested regardless of grade. Batteries carry a 30-day warranty.
Can I upgrade the memory?
Yes. The 5490 has two SO-DIMM slots and only one is occupied by the fitted 8GB module. You can add a second stick for 16GB, or replace both for up to 32GB of DDR4 2400MHz.
Is the SSD NVMe or SATA?
This unit ships with a 256GB M.2 SATA SSD. It is still dramatically faster than a mechanical hard drive, and the M.2 slot can take a larger drive if you want more capacity down the track.
Does it come with a genuine Windows licence?
Yes. Windows 11 Pro is installed and activated with a genuine licence, ready to use out of the box. No trial software, no activation prompts.
Will it run two external monitors?
Yes. You can drive one display from the HDMI 1.4 port and another over USB-C DisplayPort, or use a compatible dock. Combined with the built-in screen that gives you a three-display setup.
Does it have mobile broadband or a SIM slot?
No mobile broadband card is fitted, so this unit connects via Wi-Fi 5 or the built-in Gigabit Ethernet port.
How is the laptop shipped and what does it cost?
Orders are packed securely and dispatched from our Melbourne warehouse. Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
What is included in the box?
The laptop and a compatible 65W power adapter with lead. Original packaging, manuals and accessories are not included unless specifically stated.
Every machine we sell is covered by a 12-month return-to-base warranty, with a 30-day warranty on the battery. If something goes wrong, you deal directly with our own Melbourne workshop — not an overseas call centre.
Reboot IT has been refurbishing business IT equipment in Melbourne since 2001. Every unit is wiped to a recognised data-erasure standard, functionally tested, cleaned and graded by our own technicians before it is listed. We hold real stock in our own warehouse, so what you order is what we ship.

Intel i7-8650U vPro Power
The 8th Gen quad-core i7-8650U with Intel vPro delivers 4.2GHz turbo boost and enterprise remote management — the top processor Dell offered in the 5490 chassis.

Type comfortably in dim rooms and choose between the precision touchpad or the classic Latitude trackpoint for accurate cursor control.
Full HD Anti-Glare Display
The 14in 1920x1080 matte panel gives far more usable desktop than 1366x768 budget screens, without the reflections of a glossy finish.
Room to Upgrade
The second SO-DIMM slot is free, so memory can be lifted to 16GB or 32GB later without replacing the machine.

Fantastic service
I was looking for an in-expensive all-in-one solution for my home office to replace my existing desktop and monitor. I found this EliteOne 800 on reboot IT for under $200. I wasn't sure what to expect. It arrived within two days!!!! I upgraded the RAM, replaced the HDD and installed Windows 11. This is unbeatable value and was the cheapest price online. Coupled with a 3-month warranty, Reboot IT are by far the best online refurbished retailer I have used. Awesome!
Great service. Product in great condition and exactly what i want. I wanted this for a specific purpose but i dont need to spend $900 on a new one.
Excellent work
