I'm searching for a new laptop to swap in. The Intel Core Ultra 7 165U (15W) in the Dell Latitude 5550 seems like a solid choice for value. It's suitable for a home office without gaming demands, focusing on good value and quiet operation. You mentioned wanting a more powerful CPU like the Core Ultra 7 165H (28W), but your main concerns are the display size and numeric keypad.

Hey there,
We don't have any idea where you're getting it or how much it's costing. If it's the model with 16gb ram and 512gb ssd, I'd say no—it's not worth the €1200 you'd pay for it here in my country. Depending on the price of the 32gb version and the 1tb drive, it might still be a good option.

I can obtain it with 16gb ram and 512gb ssd in Europe for €1200. If I purchase the additional Kingston FURY SO-DIMM 64GB KIT DDR5 5600MHz CL40 Impact and Kingston KC3000 2TB SSD, the total will be €1300 without VAT, which I believe is a reasonable price.
