Guys, I right now actively finding a laptop, already 80% wanna buy this model, but want to know what u guys think

It`s on the dell website and on Promotion. it is DELL XPS 16
will get cash redemption of RM400
so it priced at RM2999 after rebate
Plus said RGBLED is supposed to be good?
Is it worth for what i`m paying for?

PROMOTION ENDS ON 24th FEB 2011

Anyone use this laptop? how is it?

Any other recommendation on any other model or brand. I`m still open.
thanks

Yes it's worthed it... It's the only FullHD and RGBLED screen laptop u can get under 3k...
Screen is nice, satured colours.. Not suitable for editing photos though coz u might get the wrong colour balance...

The GPU HD5730 is quite good also... Speakers not bad... Sleek design... Totally worthed it...

Downside probably battery life....

There are a lot of Android powered smartbooks coming up
Performance should be good since they're not running on W7 haha

Best to wait you mean?
I was thinking about it also, 3k+ for a 10incher from fujitsu, it is FUJITSU, but it aint wthing my range =(

hey guy...
i just bought hp touchsmart tm2 convertible tablet at lowyat...RM2700
the seller say it direct from hp...
for
i5 470um
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5450
320GB HDD
2GB DDR3...
do u think it expensive??

plis suggest for me...

Brand - any, but i prefer ASUS, DELL, TOSHIBA...

Budget - rm2,600(+-)

Spec - Gaming...

Size - any, prefer 14" - 16"

i've seen an ASUS cost RM2,599, i7, ATI 1GB (not sure what model), 2GB RAM..
but i forgot the model...anyone can tell me what model is this ASUS??
and is it good for gaming???
coz the promoter said it "gaming laptop", but it not G series....

thx for advice...

that is Asus X42JR-VX141V that come with Radeon HD5470(1GB),it should be fine for gaming
furthermore,thats is the only option you have if you prefer only i7 processor with budget of RM2600

Well, whether to wait or not depends on why/what you need the tablet convertible PC for?
Not sure Android will be able to fulfill all your requirements though

Added on February 22, 2011, 11:47 amIt depends on what you're using it for lo haha For a convertible I would say the price is still okay
Not really sure, never heard of it before haha, need other sifus to clarify on this...
Anyway, grats on your purchase!

Added on February 22, 2011, 11:48 amDo take note that gaming performance relies more on GPU compared to CPU
Perhaps can take a look at Asus A52Jv (i5-480M+GT540M)?
Others include Asus M43Jf, Acer 4820TG, Toshiba Satellite L645-1123/24/25 etc.
Or you can wait for SB laptops as well (coming in a few months time, those will be better if you're not in a hurry to buy)

then end this year, or first half of 2012, Ivy Bridge release..

Brand : ASUS
Budget: 2k~3k
Spec: can watch HD movies/show is the best, sometimes i play 3d/2d HD game, and probably gonna use for college since i will become a programmer/software engineer student next time

the cheaper and higher the spec the better lolx

i duno which ASUS series is good though issit N and im not a hardcore gamer

Asus A52Jv (i5-480M+ GT540M@RM2699, 15 inch) or Asus N43Jf (i5-480M+ GT425M@RM2699, 14 inch)
But I think the promotional XPS16 would be the more suitable choice for your case though, seriously can consider
Dell Studio XPS 16 (i5-460M + ATI 5730@RM2999)
Do refer to Dell's website for more details, the links doesn't seem to work here

hah thx i will check it but for me asus is better though hope is nice ^^ btw the above laptop has WIFI/WLAN build or 3.5k price below d laptop might be better?? im not sure though..how abt the bamboo series?? it has blu-ray in it

This post has been edited by funfunkid: Feb 22 2011, 01:44 PM

For 3.5k it will be good if you can choose the Asus N53SN It has better specs and speakers. But the screen is nothing special compared to the Dell Studio XPS 16
WIFI/WLAN? Don't understand
For the bamboo series, you're paying a lot more for the eco-friendly design (which may degrade eventually with time- Bamboo is biodegradable)... Don't think it has Blu-ray, and we don't often use it now do we? haha
The Bamboo series are not worth it, if really interested, the Asus U41Jf would be an alternative.

wao thx thx =D i go check it out

edit: 1 more thing..u say the dell screen special issit bcuz of the screen is more sharp/HD???

* Brand- doesn't matter

* Specs- mostly for gaming
* Size- 15inch

Yo bro teamloks

btw,[PF] T.J. Since N43Jf is now EOL and I don't plan to get one so soon... you clearly know more than me

Brand : doesn't really matter
Specs : for engineering student??
Budget- <RM2.5k
others : best if got switchable graphics and decent speakers
Size : 14 inch

Asus A52Jv, Acer 4820TG, Acer 5850G? Not much to choose from at the moment

hello this my first time here .. juz wanna ask whats the price for lenovo y460 for now .. planning to buy on this march or u guys can recommend the other thats better and cheap

Acer 4820TG coupled with good external speakers and 3 years warranty will be good
Well, if you don't plan to buy so soon, perhaps later only decide? Technology changes really quick, the specs will be refreshed before you know it
