Frequently asked questions

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!

Description

Dell Latitude 7280 — Compact Business Ultrabook

A slim, enterprise-grade 12.5" business laptop engineered for mobile professionals. The Latitude 7280 packs a surprisingly generous 16GB DDR4 RAM into a sub-1.2kg chassis — and every unit ships with a full 12-month warranty from Reboot IT.

Key Benefits

  • Ultralight at 1.18kg: One of the lightest 12.5" business laptops available — slip it into any bag and barely notice it's there.
  • Generous 16GB DDR4 RAM: Double the RAM of most entry-level refurbs in this class — handles multitasking, multiple browser tabs, and light-to-medium workloads with ease.
  • Fast 256GB M.2 SATA SSD: Near-instant boot times and snappy application loading — no spinning drive to slow you down.
  • Backlit keyboard with enterprise security: Type in any environment, backed by TPM 2.0 (FIPS certified) and Secure Boot for IT-managed deployments.
  • Modern connectivity: USB-C with DisplayPort output and Power Delivery, dual USB 3.1, Intel AC Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.2 — everything a road warrior needs.
  • 12-month warranty included: Backed by Reboot IT's standard warranty — free standard shipping anywhere in Australia.

Performance in Use

The Latitude 7280 is built around Intel's 6th Generation Core i5-6300U processor — a dual-core, four-thread CPU running at 2.4GHz base with a 3.0GHz turbo burst. Paired with 16GB of DDR4-2400 RAM and a 256GB M.2 SATA SSD, this machine handles everyday business computing with confidence. Web browsing, email, Microsoft Office, video conferencing, and light document editing all run smoothly. The extra RAM headroom means you can keep a dozen tabs open alongside your spreadsheets without the system breaking a sweat.

On the road, the Latitude 7280 proves its value quickly. At just 1.18kg it's genuinely pocketable in a slim messenger bag or backpack. The 12.5" anti-glare HD display keeps reflections at bay in bright office environments, and the backlit keyboard means late-night airport terminals or dim meeting rooms are no obstacle. Intel AC dual-band Wi-Fi keeps you connected at modern wireless speeds, and the Bluetooth 4.2 radio pairs cleanly with headsets, mice, and keyboards.

This unit ships with Windows 10 Pro — the full professional edition with domain join, BitLocker encryption, Remote Desktop, and Group Policy support. Note that the 6th Gen Intel processor does not meet Microsoft's official Windows 11 hardware requirements, so Windows 10 Pro is the appropriate operating system for this machine. Microsoft continues to support Windows 10 Pro through its lifecycle, and many businesses actively prefer its stability and compatibility with legacy enterprise software.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this laptop ship for free?
Yes — free standard shipping to all Australian addresses is included with every order. Express options are available at checkout.

Why does it run Windows 10 Pro and not Windows 11?
The Intel Core i5-6300U (6th Gen) does not meet Microsoft's official hardware requirements for Windows 11 (which mandates 8th Gen Intel or newer, plus TPM 2.0 in a specific configuration). Windows 10 Pro is the correct and supported OS for this machine. Microsoft continues to maintain Windows 10 Pro, and many businesses specifically choose it for legacy software compatibility and enterprise management stability.

How do I connect an external monitor? There's no HDMI port.
The Latitude 7280 has a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort output. A USB-C to DisplayPort cable or a USB-C to HDMI adapter (widely available for around $15–30) will connect any modern external display. The USB-C port also supports Power Delivery, so you can charge and display over a single cable with a compatible dock.

Can the RAM be upgraded beyond 16GB?
The Latitude 7280 supports up to 16GB DDR4 across two SODIMM slots, so this unit is already at the maximum RAM capacity for this model. No upgrade is possible beyond 16GB — but 16GB is genuinely sufficient for almost all business and student workloads.

Is the SSD upgradeable?
Yes — the M.2 slot accepts standard M.2 SATA drives. If you need more storage in the future, the 256GB SSD can be replaced with a larger M.2 SATA drive (note: the 7280 supports SATA, not NVMe, on this slot).

What does the 12-month warranty cover?
The warranty covers hardware faults — screen defects, port failures, keyboard issues, and component failure. Battery capacity is warranted separately for 30 days from delivery. Normal wear and accidental damage are not covered.

Is this laptop suitable for video calls?
Yes. The built-in HD webcam and microphone handle Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet well in normal office lighting. For regular heavy video conferencing, you may find an external USB webcam worthwhile, but the built-in camera is entirely functional for business use.
