ASUS Vivobook 15 vs Dell Latitude 5330

The Dell Latitude 5330 outperforms ASUS Vivobook 15, featuring a more powerful i5 processor, double the RAM for better multitasking, and a brighter screen with higher color accuracy and contrast; influences how sharp and vivid the display appears. Additionally, the Dell Latitude 5330 is more portable due to its smaller size and lighter weight, plus it provides longer battery life, making it a more suitable companion for mobile use despite its higher cost.

The ASUS Vivobook 15 has more modest specs with a lower-tier CPU and less RAM, making it fair for engineering and design, while also having a larger but less color-accurate screen, affecting screen quality. On the other hand, the Dell Latitude 5330 is equipped with a higher-tier processor, more RAM, and better GPU capabilities which are very important for such tasks, along with a brighter and more color-accurate display, thus being good for engineering and design use.

PerfectRec’s Content Creation Score takes into account the many different features of the laptop that make it more or less suitable for photo editing, video editing and other content creation tasks.

For general use, both the ASUS Vivobook 15 and the Dell Latitude 5330 offer screens that provide an adequate visual experience with satisfactory resolution and brightness, but they may not have premium panel types which enhance the viewing clarity and color. In engineering and design fields, users require accurate color representation; these models offer fairness in this aspect but may lack the full range of color gamuts necessary for the highest precision work. When it comes to 3D applications and gaming, these laptops fall short as their refresh rates are not high enough to render fast-moving images seamlessly, and while they have a decent resolution and panel type, they are not tailored for high-performance visual demands.

Battery life estimate is based on a mix of common use patterns. More portable and higher performing laptops tend to have less battery life.

The ASUS Vivobook 15 and the Dell Latitude 5330 are fair for gaming and 3D as they both have integrated graphics, which are less powerful than dedicated GPUs, and a standard screen refresh rate that is adequate but not optimal for high-frame-rate gaming. The Vivobook 15 uses Intel UHD Graphics with a 15.6-inch screen while the Latitude 5330 employs Intel Iris Xe Graphics with a slightly sharper but smaller 13.3-inch display, the latter likely to deliver better visual quality and slightly higher performance.
