Pros and Cons

Dell Latitude 15 7530

Strengths

The Dell Latitude 15 7350 has a carbon fiber chassis that is very rigid and sturdy, showing little to no flex.
The laptop's lid opens easily with one hand and houses a webcam, IR face recognition sensor, proximity sensor, and privacy shutter.
The keyboard and touchpad are a great combo with long key travel and clicky feedback for the board.
The laptop has a well-selected input/output configuration with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB type-A 3.2 generation 1 ports, an audio jack, optional smart card reader, HDMI 2.0 port, and a SIM card tray.
The full HD IPS panel provides good viewing angles and no PWM usage.
The laptop's battery unit lasts for 10 hours and 36 minutes of web browsing or 7 hours and 13 minutes of video playback with the larger 58 Wh battery.

Weaknesses

The metal variant of the laptop weighs significantly more than the carbon fiber model, increasing by around 200 grams.
The igpu does not perform well in keeping the temps in check, running very hot and maxing out at 97°C during stress tests.
The base gets quite warm with a hot spot on the function keys that reaches 47.5°C during stress testing.
The fan is quiet but can't handle high power limits, leading to CPU throttling.
The display's mid-max brightness might be too low for bright rooms or outdoor use.
The color reproduction is not good, covering only about half of the sRGB gamut.

Strengths

This has been a nice pleasant surprise, especially a good bank for the buck here we like to see in 2024 when laptops are so expensive
sharp brighter than expected display
a Sleek lightweight design
a nice solid overall performance here with good graphics performance again with that Intel arc graphics
outstanding battery life
it has a comfortable keyboard and touchpad

Weaknesses

the ram is not upgradeable, that is pretty much part for the course here in 2024
it has HDMI 1.4 not the more Modern Standard 2.1 which would give you more options
you're going to have to contend with that fan noise reaching as high as 53 maybe even 54 DB which is quite noticeable under load
the speakers I would say are surprisingly good not the greatest speakers I've ever heard but pretty good for this price point in this category
the ram is not upgradeable that is pretty much part for the course here in 2024 and it has HDMI 1.4 not the more Modern Standard 2.1
