Huh? The sticker itself comes separately? I thought it should be already stick on the palm rest? Btw, how do you feel and think about the built-in battery? May to share with us? Actually I was thinking to get this as my new laptop and everything is fine for me but the built-in battery is kinda turn me down, so can you enlighten me on this? 

Hello,

I found this thread looking for info about the 4830TG, thanks for all the info and pictures.

I've got an important question to ask, how come it's such a good price in Malaysia?!

I'm in the UK and we always get shafted for price, but I was wondering are laptops usually cheaper in Malaysia than other countries?
According to XE, 2,499.00 MYR = 505.964 GBP, that's still £60 or so cheaper than a used/returned 1st generation 4820TG with worse specs all around on amazon.co.uk. 

I think a poster above posted an advert for Singapore but the prices seem to be much higher there as well...

Thing is I'm probably going to visit a friend in Indonesia in a few months and was thinking of stopping off in Singapore to look for a laptop. If I can get a 4830TG for 2399RM or thereabouts I think I'll be stopping off in KL instead, the flights usually cost about the same.

Do you guys thing this price is going to last? Is this price normal in Malaysia?

Thanks!

Any creaking on the center of the palm rest? Or was it just the display unit 
Grats on your purchase~
Really poisoned by the design, specs & price

Installed beyond good & evil. The graphics is slightly glitchy. it can run on the intel hd3000 smoothly. Tried to run it on nvidia must be manually added to list of programs (maybe because it's old?). Gonna try different settings later...

Still need an online connection after this to install steam...

Wow, really nice pics. Have you tried how long it takes to charge to 100%? Roughly 1% need how many mins?
Harlow and welcome   The price is RRP by Acer so is normal.

That's very reassuring 
I'm sure it'll serve you well~

call distributor stock not yet arrive
call acer confirm shipment will arrive in 15 april
so dealer should selling it on 18 onwards

@Revamperz: the machine looks damn nice, and very nice angle as well! you are probably one of the first 4830tg user in the world...

Bro, remember to time the charging. Cos interested to know how fast 4830TG charges.  TQ.

Charging now at 30% ngam2 7.00pm on laptop time 

I also got the free cooler but not using it because sitting in aircond room

Battcare not showing the temperature of the HDD or CPU/GPU... Dunno why.

I am falling in love with the keyboard and touchpad. It's pretty nice to use...

On the BatteryCare options, under Advanced, enable the run startup in Admin mode..

30 minutes = 10% discharge. If 100% = 6 hours.

So, looks like 6.5 hours on a single charge... Maybe more if you turn off wifi. I started watching music video while waiting, so might have drained a bit more.

Also checked viewing angle. From left and right, maybe about 120-150 degrees. But from top and bottom, maybe only about 45 degree angle can see...

Okokokokok can gip me few mins I edit everything

I am surprised that aluminium chassis doesn't heat up as I thought it would be. The fan is surprisingly quiet too...

I think this is one of the best laptops in the market for this price. Yay for acer!
