Great!! seems like there is switchable graphics?... And this freaking settles the 'overheating' myth as commented by those ppl and so called HP sellers who never even used it before and judging it based on the previous generation! Now let's just wait for gaming temperatures..

In US, HP already pushed back the release of SB laptop including DV6 and DV7, that is why HP dealer mention is limited units but not actually limited.

I dont think this is related? Hp-dv6 SB was out since early January... The SB issue was only announced a week ago...

The one mentioned in the news is a newer variant with different SB processors and slightly different design and also got USB 3.0... It's not talking about the current one with i7-2630QM, and same design as previous generation ones..

The hdd of this laptop is quite slow, only 5400rpm.
*
5400RPM n 7200RPM don't really have notable differences one lar... Instead I prefer 5400RPM over 7200RPM because it's cooler n lower power consumption... You want faster HDD, Momentus XT or SSD..

How's the battery life???

did u guys bought this lappy online? i went to alot of shops and all of them said they don't have this model =\

I think u can get it in shops but stocks are limited so that's probably why most of the shops doesn't have it, adding now all the SB laptops being called back, so no more new stocks also..

LOL.. I ask the supervisor.. The supervisor so LC.. Call him to call HP to confirm the problem cause wan ask bout the procedure when new SB release. He say nothing will happen. Zzzz..
*
it's normal... Most sellers in LYP also like that one, they just wanna sell and earn money.. Ask them what is Sandy Bridge they also dunno sometimes.. that's why everyone do their research in this forum first before they buy...

conversely, there might be some part time staffs who's really interested in these tech stuffs then they would explain stuffs to you....

Haha.. Not really... Have yet to hear the forummers give reviews/feedback regarding the SB dv6, have been waiting for that.. Somehow after they got the dv6 laptop they stopped lurking here anymore lol...

Anyways, I like the mocha wood-like finish.. Dun really feel like a new design lar, just some slight changes here n there... The touchpad change is good since most ppl complaining the unresponsiveness of the old one...

Thanks for the clarification  notworthy.gif
Oh I see, then we have a new contender for the 15" category, RM3699 seemed reasonable, comes with Beats headset (which I heard is extremely good) too thumbup.gif
*
From an audiophile perspective, Beats stuff are overpriced for their audio quality lol..

But from a normal person's view, they do look really cool/good, but the fact that so many fakes around and ppl wearing fakes make it not so special anymore lol...

If it really DOES comes with Beats headphone, it's really a HUGE bargain, I have a feeling it's limited stock though...

OMG, there are fake ones? LOL  shocking.gif
Geezz I must've been fooled by ppl again  laugh.gif
Iirc, HP Envy also come with Beats headset I think?  hmm.gif
I think the Dv6 will give the XPS 15 a headache  laugh.gif

Envy comes with Beats headset also? Didn't know that wor..

Well, many ppl's perspective towards dv6 still haven't change anyways so I don't think XPS15 sales is gonna be affected... The last dv6 @rm3299 was a total bargain with blu-ray drive and gddr5 gpu, yet the only ppl I know who got it in this forum is 'toobad'...

Haha, tons of fakes and 9/10 in eBays are fakes also.. In Malaysia, you can only go to Jaben to ensure its real...

is this the same? seems some people are selling the dv6-4003tx for mere RM3200++

This is an EOL model with SB issue lar.. Better don't get it.. The one in lelong is not the real pic somehow.. Scammer perhaps?

QUOTE(scnix @ Apr 12 2011, 10:03 AM)
How's the heating issue with HP dv6 4003TX? Does it get really warm when gaming/heavy usage?

I've been looking at Asus N53SN lately and I think this has a better spec, but I'm worried about the heating 'cause I have a HP pavilion (forgot which model) 12" and it gets really warm on the palms whenever I start work on photoshop or illustrator.

The dv6 6001TX looks tasty, but it's kinda out of my budget haha.
*
there's a forummer 'toobad' who got it, seems quite normal and big improvement over previous dv6's... he posted the temperature many pages back... It's an EOL model don't think you can find it anywhere... Even if got also very dodgy and it has SB issue also..

Get 6001TX if you have the budget, it's totally worth the price!! A lot lighter/slimmer than N53SN also..

dr dre dont need to produce any rap anymore he live off by selling beats

Yes you can definitely sell it off for a good price maybe around RM600-700 if it comes with Local warranty..

The garage sales one can sell so cheap because USA set cannot claim warranty in Malaysia, you have to like send it to USA or smth to claim warranty... That's why ppl tend to buy locally although it's more expensive...


Added on April 12, 2011, 9:01 pmThe thread selling Beats solo looks too good to be true lol
