That is my opinion, not sure true or not..need to ask other experts

Yea, I agree with you ... any experts know about this?

It will cut charging at 100%.. you wont feel the battery warm anymore.. anyways at the battery icon will state : "Fully Charged, Plugged In" instead of "Charging 100%" lol

If you want to be sure use Battery Bar When charging u will see +xx.xxxmW, when discharge u will see -xx.xxxmW, when fully charged u see +0.000mW

Still this is hard to explain to some ppl as they prefer to believe what their buddies said? LoL..

I believe in studio xps 16 power management, there got one option to stop charging the battery, until the notebook is restarted, then it only will start charging

but the problem is when the laptop fully loaded... the heat produced is the main enermy of battery

Dear Dell Studio XPS Users:

Are there any owners/users of Dell Studio XPS who bought their laptops via SA instead of online buying or shops? I want to know whether the owners/users who bought their laptops via SA received any "special or extra" offers or promotions besides of the online's promotions. Mind to share with us? Thanks in advance!

This is true.. the heat produced would be the main enemy of the battery.. Since the battery life will degrade due to heat faster..

The cooler pad would be usefull to draw heat away from the battery..

call dell! if u read a few pages back u'll find that calling dell will get u some discounts. i got mine at 250 less of the online price...
rmb, the more exp ur laptop is, the more discount u can get. =D

I believe we're approaching the page limit of this thread; anyone interested in becoming the next thread starter for Dell Studio XPS?

I.C ... how much you bought your laptop last time? You only got RM250 reduction and no freebies like mouse, bag and etc?

erm its only rm3799 now on dell website lolszzzzzzzzz the xps 16 but with p8700 processor. Is it worth to get now? Or shud i opt labtops with core i procesors like dell studio 15 >.<

well, if you are more concern on gaming performance, better get sxps 16

I would like to ask whether Dell Studio XPS 16 is suitable enough for me as I usually will use my laptop for AutoCAD, MATLAB, Visual Basic, and Office. My current laptop was quite lag when I want to open the AutoCAD 2010 application. Is it because of processor or ? My current processor is Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz and NVidea GeForce 8400M GS (128MB) graphic card.

you mean slow when opening the autocad?
most probably is hdd or ram.

Yea, you are right! It was slow when I want to open the app. However, my HDD was not really loaded as I put most of my docs in my external HDD. As for RAM, I have 4 GB RAM (667 MHz).

but when using it, is it lag?
because if loading slow, its mostly because the speed of hdd.
Wel, upgrading the cpu might help.

plz guide me

Hey, is any studio XPS 16 user could tell me hows the temperature and battery usage?
