Dell Latitude 5440 — 14" FHD Touchscreen vPro Business Laptop
A professionally tested and graded 14-inch business laptop with a Full HD touchscreen, built around Intel’s 13th Generation Core i5-1345U with vPro, 16GB of dual-channel DDR4 memory and a 512GB NVMe SSD, running Windows 11 Pro. It adds an integrated smart card reader and ExpressSign-In proximity sensing, and is backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty with free standard AU shipping.
Key Benefits
-
14-inch Full HD touchscreen: A 1920×1080 IPS panel rated at 300 nits with an anti-glare finish and full touch input — scroll, pinch, sign and annotate directly on screen, with enough brightness for a well-lit office.
-
13th Gen Intel Core i5 with vPro: The i5-1345U is a 10-core (2 performance + 8 efficient), 12-thread processor boosting to 4.7GHz, with Intel vPro Enterprise enabled for remote management and hardware-level security — the configuration IT departments actually ask for.
-
Integrated smart card reader: A built-in contacted smart card reader supports PIV, CAC and corporate badge authentication without a dongle — a genuine requirement in government, health and finance environments, and uncommon on this chassis.
-
16GB dual-channel DDR4 and a 512GB SSD: Two matched 8GB DDR4-3200 modules run in dual-channel for noticeably better integrated-graphics and memory bandwidth than a single-stick build, paired with a fast 512GB NVMe drive.
-
ExpressSign-In with Intelligent Privacy: A proximity sensor wakes and signs you in with Windows Hello as you approach, locks the machine when you walk away, and can dim the screen when it detects someone looking over your shoulder.
-
12-month warranty & free AU shipping: Every unit is tested, graded and covered by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty, with free standard shipping anywhere in Australia.
Performance In Use
For day-to-day office work, the Latitude 5440 feels effortless. The 13th Gen Core i5-1345U pairs two performance cores with eight efficient cores, so short bursts — opening a large workbook, rendering a long document, joining a video call — land on the fast cores while background tasks sit on the efficient ones. Running 16GB as two matched modules rather than one keeps memory bandwidth up, which the integrated graphics in particular benefit from when driving external displays.
This is the configuration to pick if your environment has requirements rather than preferences. Intel vPro Enterprise is enabled, so the machine can be inventoried, patched and remotely remediated by IT below the operating system. The integrated smart card reader handles badge and certificate sign-on natively. ExpressSign-In locks the screen the moment you step away from the desk, which is the kind of control compliance teams ask for and users normally resent — here it happens without anyone pressing anything.
The touchscreen earns its place in document-heavy work. Reviewing and signing, marking up drawings, navigating dashboards and working through long forms are all faster with direct touch than with a trackpad, and the anti-glare coating keeps the panel readable rather than reflective. Thunderbolt 4 means one USB-C cable at the desk carries power, network and multiple external monitors, so the machine drops into a docked two-screen setup and lifts straight back out again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this laptop new or refurbished?
It is a professionally refurbished business laptop. Each unit is inspected, tested, cleaned and graded by our Melbourne team before it ships.
Is the screen a touchscreen?
Yes. This configuration has a 14-inch Full HD IPS touchscreen rated at 300 nits, with an anti-glare finish so it stays readable under office lighting.
Does it really have a smart card reader?
Yes. This unit was factory-configured with an integrated contacted smart card reader in the palmrest, so PIV, CAC and corporate badge authentication work without an external reader.
Does it support Intel vPro?
Yes. Intel vPro Enterprise is enabled on this unit, so it can be discovered, patched and remotely remediated by IT management tooling below the operating system.
Can I upgrade the memory or storage later?
Yes. This Latitude uses two standard DDR4 SODIMM slots rather than soldered memory and supports up to 64GB in total; both slots are currently filled with 8GB modules, so an upgrade means replacing them. The M.2 NVMe drive is also replaceable. We recommend a qualified technician to keep your warranty intact.
Does it have mobile broadband or a SIM slot?
No. This unit was built with a wireless-LAN-only display assembly and no mobile broadband card, so it connects via Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth or the built-in Gigabit Ethernet port.
Does it come with a charger?
Yes, a compatible 100W USB-C power adapter is included so the laptop is ready to use on arrival.
How much does shipping cost?
This laptop qualifies for free standard AU shipping, delivered anywhere in Australia at no extra cost.
What warranty is included?
Every unit is covered by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty, with an additional 30-day battery warranty for peace of mind.
