• “If your pockets are deep enough, this enterprise-ready 2-in-1 laptop is one of the best convertibles money can buy, though you might want a docking station to fully utilize the vPro power inside.”

• “Dell's Latitude 9000 series is meant to compete with the likes of HP's EliteBook 1000 series and Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 series. And while it's the newest of those three brands, Dell is really beginning to impress as the brand comes into maturity.”

• “Overall, I highly recommend the Dell Latitude 9000 9430 for anyone looking for a powerful, versatile device suitable for both professional and personal use. Its blend of performance, design, and usability makes it a top contender in the 2-in-1 market.”
