Grazing over the two, the Dell Latitude 5175 and 5179, appear nearly identical to each other, but offer slightly different dimensions. The 5175 measures .42 x 11. 6.9 inches, and weighs 1.56 pounds, while the 5179 measures .56 x 11 x 6.96 and weighs 1.67 pounds. Their 10.8 inch 1920 x 1080 Full HD displays feature FHD Touch with Corning Concore Glass, and Dell’s Anti-Finger Print (Dell). That’s a high resolution for such a small screen.


There’s gotta be something different between the 5175 and the 5179 besides size, right? The answer is yes. There is some added security, found in the Latitude 5179, especially aimed at Dell’s enterprise customers. While both models feature Dell Data Protection (Security Tools, Protected Workspace for 1 year, Encryption, Endpoint Security Suite, and Endpoint Recovery), the 5179 has an added Smartcard reader and Fingerprint reader. This set of hybrid tablets will be great for the professional, on-the-go type of user. Prices will start at $749 for the 5175 base configuration, and are expected to launch this month.
