The i7 version have backlit though...

actually i would like to know all Vostro 3700 user, when u customizing the notebook, did u all upgrade the RAM from 3 to 4GB? how about the OS and the warranty as well? hmmm it's quite annoy me that the OS is 32bit instead of 64bit. also about the warranty, still nobody answer me wat's the differences between those?

here's your answer. it's not difficult to google

up to u if u wanna upgrade the rams.

actually it is worth to upgrade the warranty, just in case, who knows you spoit it during the warranty period and you can get repair for free. And about the ram, its all up to you. If you were gamer, sure you want to have larger ram for smoother gameplay. But for me, I prefer 3G of ram as i not hardcore gamer

It's worth to get this laptop if you really like the big screen and dell brand notebooks.

hi i was wondering about the screen quality
is it worse than vaio EB series screen quality??
very worry about the screen quality as we deciding whether vaio EB series or 3700 vostro

actually i feel 3GB is already enough for me (not really a gamer, juz play games when i free and not everyday), is it really needed to get 4GB instead of 3 for all gamers? hmmmm i was thinking that when we really playing games, does the game usage till 2GB that much? btw, thx all ur information, i know wat should i do to the warranty. hehe...

not sure..can't help u on that. but one thing..it's definitely not the worst screen ive known

17.3" @1600x900 is considered good, higher than conventional 15.6" @ 1366x768. simple calculation will tell u the vostro has higher density pixel / sq inch

i owned a 15.6" @ 1366x768, n boy trust me..it's grainy n smudgy especially when viewing pics

heard quite a lot of ppl said screen not good , very worry about it le..

like i always say.. pls provide a trustworthy resources..

it's always ' ohh i hear alot ppl'' ..'ohh some ppl said this n tat' ..zzz

who's the tom d*** harry?

my friend in dell told me not nice the screen, thats why..

ok then..i cant comment on that...

it's relatively speaking, to me, it looks better than my previous asus k50ab. not to mention, the anti glare , makes it semi glossy matte..which i like and find it useful on sunny days..

off course, don compare la with overly expensive lappies that hav better screens.

i have to admit that i not quite satisfy with the standard resolution for 15.6 inch laptop. Why? kucingfight already explained one of the reasons. But overall its still nice to get a 15.6 laptop if you prefer a smaller desktop replacement laptop.

And about the screen quality. I can ensure you that I very happy that i owned this laptop. Screen quality is never a problem for me whether im watching movies (up to 720HD), playing games (dota lol), or doing routine tasks (microsoft office, browsers). It's all more than a standard laptop i can have.

p/s: no offense to other laptop owners, as this is just my own pov.
p/s2: the only things i wish to have is to upgrade cpu into i7 + backlit keyboard

1st it is not worth go for i7 model
2nd i heard LYN members said that it comes with backlit actually and i also found out it is true in previous Dell web site but now i was wondering the web site didn't show that anymore.
3rd i prefer red. if not becoz the 2,849 charge me RM 41 for change the colour to red. probably i will go for red colour. look more sharp, haha....

1. Well, if you use HTT powered apps & also need some power raw processing then i7 would be nice but for gaming, i5 is the best for now

2. i7 model comes with Backlit Keyboard ..already stated in the Also Include section

3. Varies on user/person...some like red while some like silver..which is which really depends on you, i say red is nice but for you, might be or might not be

that's the point, in previous Dell web site. it really shown with the Backlit Keyboard, but now after u finished customize and review ur product. it is not shown in the Also include section, it's gone. so i think u gonna call them and ask for sure.

after i finished customized it , it shown that backlit keyboard along for i7 model

yes is there.

under the 'included' section..standard item
