Howdy

We have a large volume of these 11th Gen Dell's to clear for April.

I've also put in a cheap upgrade to 16Gb Ram if required, just select it from the Drop down menu.

Dell Latitude 5420
Intel i5 1135G7 2.40Ghz
8Gb Ram
256Gb NVME
14" FHD
Win 11 Pro
12 Month Warranty

Edit: As we are nearly sold out. I've apply the same discount to the B Grade units. With B Grades, they may have 50~79% battery life and or heavy marks scratches, or common on this model, some paint peel.

    Random question, did you used to/still do have a service manager (I think) named Tim (I think) who had a suziki swift all wheel drive that was imported from Japan?

      • CharlieAus on 08/04/2025 - 14:32

        Because 25 odd years ago I remember going in there a few times as one of the owners of the small company I was working for worked there, not sure about the name or position but he had just imported an AWD Suziki Swift GTi like car (I think the Japanese badge was Cultus). Maybe it was another with a similar name, thought I'd test my memory heh.

          I don't normally go into this level of detail, but to be honest the B Grade stock is pretty nice.

          Under the lid they look barely used, however the suffer from bad paint peel when removing assest stickets. Batteries are all recording good too.

    Refurbished laptops actually seem pretty nice

  • pjbargain15 on 08/04/2025 - 23:29

    I am genuinely curious about the usecases for refurb laptops that are few years old. I get that price is a big part of the deal, but from my personal experience, even the new Windows laptops from most brands (Dell, Lenovo, HP etc) start to deteriorate drastically after around 5-6 years, to the point you struggle to do even basic tasks as word processing or web browsing because of slowness. So assuming refurbs are already few years old, what do people use it for and how long they last in that specific job? Do people use it as media server or some IoT stuff or something else? Because I can't think of these for actual work purposes, may be for a couple years at max, but is that worth the hassle to chuck it to landfill in just few years? Again, no judgements, genuinely curious as I like the price, but don't know what would I use it for.

    • Ahoon on 09/04/2025 - 00:35
      +3

      I'm genuinely curious about what you're doing that's wearing a new laptop out in 5 years, especially since CPUs are incredibly durable and can run continuously for many years without issues if properly cooled. In most cases, motherboards tend to be the weakest link due to power surges or long-term heat exposure, but they can still last decades without real issues if properly taken care of.

    • timuzhti on 09/04/2025 - 00:51

      I still have a 2007 Dell Latitude around somewhere (D630 I'm fairly sure) that's still perfectly functional for word processing and web browsing as long as you don't open as many tabs as I typically do. For me I bought refurb for my most recent laptop because I got twice the RAM for something like half the price (yeah I know I have a tabs problem, but it was cheap enough, I already wanted to get another laptop, and I do have reasons to keep some of them open okay).

    • iratepirate on 09/04/2025 - 09:55

      Have you tried re installing winblows? A fresh install will often get rid of the bloat that builds up over time slowing the machine.
      These are also good for Linux installs.

      start to deteriorate drastically after around 5-6 years

      That is not normal at all. The only thing that should be expected to deteriorate is battery life, and batteries can easily be replaced in most models, including Dell.
      It is possible that you have experienced slowdown to to thermal problems from blocked or failing fans,
      but far more likely you have a software problem. Windows installs can slow with age.

      Why get a new laptop when all you need is to re-install Windows (or something better)?
      Android is a different matter - they really can slow with age due to forced updates and bloat. Windows has not done that in many years.

        With the Pics provided, This is definitely not Grade A quality. I've purchased many Grade A laptops from other vendors, and all of them were in pristine condition.

        According to their website , "When a product is graded as Grade A, it implies that the device has been renewed to be "as good as new."

    • uzr89p9jd on 15/04/2025 - 16:50

      Shell is scuffed but how's the ports and inside of it, especially the screen? The scratches are unlucky but if everything else works then I'd be lenient enough to give them the A still.

      An easy fix if you don't mind the tackiness for the gash on the top is a large mono-colour sticker from ali or ebay. 14" rectangular one in silver.

      Based on the comments from those who’ve already received their orders, this seems highly suspicious — it’s starting to look like a scam. The items definitely don’t appear to be Grade A as advertised.

      • chutibuti on 17/04/2025 - 19:17
        +1

        Ok, I received mine today. Here's my assessment:
        A few scuff marks on the top cover, and some paint peeled off on the bottom — likely due to asset tag removal.
        No marks or scratches inside, or the panel, looks clean.
        Hinges are solid — no issues.
        Battery health is at 94.6%, which is better than expected.
        Mounting pads are intact, nothing wrong there.
        I haven’t tested the ports or overall performance yet.
        The charger still has its original plastic cover.
        Overall, considering the condition, I’d rate this as Grade A — nothing to complain about.

    I got mine a few days ago.

    Purchased A grade, and generally it looks pretty good, but I am struggling with battery life - I'm getting a max of 2-3 hours even on battery saver mode.

    Reviews of this laptop often highlight how amazing the battery life is, often saying it lasts 9-15 hours. Even at 80% capacity, I should be getting much more 2-3 hours…

    Anyone else having this issue as well, or know what to do?

    • iratepirate on 17/04/2025 - 23:24

      Mine came with a 3 cell 42Wh battery not the optional larger 63Wh battery so 2-3 hrs is about right for a 80% battery.
      Replacement 63Wh batteries (RJ40G) should cost about $50 delivered.

      As far as I am aware. they remove this to avoid any detection of the MB issues, Refer to this for more details (https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-au/latitude-5420-lap… )

      If there is a failure with the system board, the battery status LED flashes the error codes for 30 seconds. L-BIST is an enhancement to the single LED error code diagnostics and is automatically initiated during POST. L-BIST will check
      the LCD power rail. If there is no power being supplied to the LCD (that is if the L-BIST circuit fails), the battery status LED
      flashes either an error code
