If you prioritize performance, particularly for processing-intensive tasks, the Dell Latitude 14 7490 with its better processor will handle those demands more efficiently. However, it's heavier and less sleek compared to the Jumper 16" Laptop. On the flip side, if a larger, higher-resolution display and a lighter machine are more important to you, particularly for tasks like browsing or streaming videos, the Jumper could be a better option, though it has less storage capacity and a less powerful processor, making it less suitable for heavy workloads. The Dell also offers a smaller, standard full HD display but provides more storage and a robust processor ideal for business and engineering tasks. Consider what tasks you'll be using the laptop for most when making your choice. Give Feedback

The Dell Latitude 14 7490 has a better screen than the Jumper 16" Laptop for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, software development, and content creation.
The Dell Latitude's respectable resolution and brightness make it fine for everyday tasks, while its wider color gamut supports precision in engineering and design work. However, its lower refresh rate hampers the gaming and 3D modeling experience, where fluid motion is crucial. The Jumper's similar resolution and brightness offer satisfactory performance for daily use and sufficient color reproduction for some technical applications, yet the same limitations in refresh rate reduce its effectiveness for gaming and 3D tasks.

The Dell Latitude 14 7490 and Jumper 16" Laptop are both poor for gaming and AI.
The Dell Latitude 14 7490 offers a slightly better performance for gaming and 3D applications due to its Intel UHD Graphics 620, which is more capable than the Jumper 16" Laptop's Intel UHD Graphics 600. Both laptops have the same screen refresh rate, which is adequate for casual gaming, but the Dell's marginally more powerful GPU contributes to a fair experience, compared to the poor one on the Jumper.

Henry T. Casey | April 2018
"The Dell Latitude 7490's got the speed you need (and then some), a keyboard that's comfortable enough for writing all day long and a battery that supports a full 8-hour workday. If only the display were brighter and it managed heat better. If you need every minute of battery life you can get, the extended-battery version of the Lenovo ThinkPad T480 lasts 8 hours longer than the Latitude 7490, but its display is much less colorful."
