Dell Latitude E5570 — 15.6" Business Laptop with a Quad-Core i5
A 15.6-inch business laptop built around a genuine quad-core 45W Intel Core i5-6440HQ — a far more capable processor than the dual-core chips usually found at this size and price. Fitted with 8GB DDR4 and a 256GB SSD, running Windows 10 Pro. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty and free standard AU shipping.
Key Benefits
-
Quad-core 45W H-series processor — The i5-6440HQ has four real cores at 2.6GHz in a 45W envelope. Most business laptops of this era use 15W dual-core U-series chips, so this handles sustained multitasking noticeably better
-
Intel vPro management — Advanced Management Features enabled for IT teams that manage machines below the operating system
-
8GB DDR4 with a free slot — A single 8GB module across two SODIMM slots, so memory can be doubled by adding a second stick rather than replacing the first
-
256GB SSD and a full-size chassis — Solid-state storage in a serviceable 15.6-inch business body with a proper bottom-access panel
-
Full connectivity — Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI, USB 3.0, Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth, with a dual-pointing backlit keyboard
-
Certified refurbished with 12-month warranty — Professionally tested and graded by Reboot IT, Melbourne's refurbished IT specialists since 2001
Performance in Use
The Latitude E5570 is a workhorse rather than a showpiece. What makes this particular configuration worth a look is the processor: the i5-6440HQ is an H-series quad-core, the same class of chip Dell put in its mobile workstations, rather than the 15W dual-core parts that dominate second-hand business laptops. For anything that can use more than two cores — a browser with thirty tabs, a virtual machine, a long spreadsheet recalculation — it simply keeps going where a dual-core equivalent starts to stutter.
It suits office and administrative work, school and TAFE study, reception and back-office roles, and anywhere a large screen and a full keyboard matter more than portability. The 15.6-inch Full HD panel gives room for two documents side by side, and the numeric-friendly full-size layout suits data entry.
Being a Latitude, it is built to be serviced: the bottom panel comes off with a few screws, memory and storage are accessible, and parts remain easy to find. With one memory slot free and a standard drive bay, it takes an upgrade well if requirements grow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this run Windows 11?
No. Two things rule it out: the 6th-generation processor is below Microsoft's supported CPU list, and the machine has TPM 1.2 rather than the TPM 2.0 that Windows 11 requires. It runs Windows 10 Pro, which is what it ships with.
Is the processor really quad-core?
Yes. The i5-6440HQ is a 45W H-series chip with four physical cores, unlike the 15W dual-core U-series processors common in business laptops of this age. It is the main reason to choose this configuration.
Can I add more memory?
Yes. The 8GB is one module in one of two SODIMM slots, so a second stick can be added without removing the first.
Is the SSD NVMe?
No — it is a 256GB M.2 SATA drive. Much faster than a hard disk, but not NVMe speed.
Does it have a fingerprint reader?
No. This configuration shipped without a fingerprint or smartcard reader.
What condition will I receive it in?
Professionally cleaned, tested and graded by Reboot IT in Melbourne. Grade A shows minimal marks; Grade B shows light wear consistent with prior business use. Every unit is verified operational before dispatch.
Does free shipping apply?
Yes — free standard AU shipping is included with this item.
