Yes. It's time to replace. Your laptop is a 14". You can replace it with another 14" latitude that'll be far superior. Something like this. https://www.dellrefurbished.com/item/dell-latitude-7430-touch-6813a0e1/dell-latitude-7430-touch/1.html There's lots of nice reasonable latitude laptops on the s

I'm partial to the Latitude 74xx series. So I'd look at the 7430 with the 12th gen. It's not going to be great for gaming though. https://www.dellrefurbished.com/item/dell-latitude-7430-6835c26f/dell-latitude-7430/1.html

I see them, business grade, all the time since I switched to IT career. Far better build quality most years. Only the Dell Latitude 7420 had an issue with RAM too powerful for the motherboard. Dell Latitude 7430 to Dell Pro Plus has had no issues for those in finance/accounting/data analysis fields.

I have a gen 4 Thinkpad T14 i5 and use a Latitude 7430 i5 from work and can attest the Thinkpad is not only more powerful (at least the version I have compared to the work one), but also better built.

Latitude/Dell Pro Plus line is relatively good. Only the Latitude 7420 has had problems with heat. The Latitude 7430 to the Dell Pro 14 Plus have been excellent for their target market (accountants, analysts, and IT support).

I use a Latitude 7430 for work and it’s fast and reliable with good battery life. They can be had for around $350 on eBay these days which is fair considering they were over $1,000 just 3 years ago. I also got a 7320 for my wife recently for a little over $200. It’s also fast with good battery life.
