Ordered DV6-6c19TX yesterday... ...

Was in dilemma yesterday.... Envy 15 at ~3.9k but the extended warranty will cost rm328 (to 3 years) for me.... total ~4.2k.... dv6-6c19tx to 3 years is 1.1k lesser... i didnt manage to see any new envy 15 screen so it wasnt tempting enuf.... i read the screen is top IPS tech panel... not TN panel... for envy 15..... dv6 screen is not very good IMO

haha u are making me considering envy again

Not too late yet i suppose... but i don't think i will want to pay for 1.1k more for radiance backlit keyboard, IPS screen, 4gb ram more, 250gb HDD more, and the design... hmm... but installment to 24months only makes a rm50 different each month... LOL!...

7690M XT details... here u go... http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-Radeon-HD...0M.67737.0.html

EDIT: Ops.. that is 7690M only... not XT.... which is placed in the Envy 15... another reason im not getting it.. haha

1 thg to remember.... you cant change HP laptop specs at all, no changing can be done by HP for hardware except for adding ram......

then its not much different with dv6-6168tx, mind to tell us your full spec details?

6168tx is still better overall, except for the HDD (debatable), and ofcoz paying for the extra ~rm300 for the difference
- capacity and speed or HDD: 1TB 5400rpm on 6168tx VS 750GB 7200rpm (owner's laptop)
- connectivity : missing bluetooth (owner's laptop)
- processor: 2670QM 2.2GHz on 6168tx VS 2630QM 2.0GHz (owner's laptop)
- battery: 6cell on 6168tx VS 9cell (owner's laptop)
- graphic card: 2GB ram on 6168tx VS 1GB ram (owner's laptop)

guess in the end its still the same....

those who ordered/bought can check ur status here https://h20497.www2.hp.com/os/simpleView.tcl

FYI HP office close down between 26th Dec 2011 - 1st Jan 2012... not sure will the production and delivery will be delayed... Its assembled in China and direct shipped from China.. so it will take some time.... so those who ordered/bought it will need to be patient, especially with this coming dual festive season

Then wat is ur status?

U mean 720p or 1080p screen? Read review that the 720p screen have 2 types. Oe with 220dpi/knit and another is 200dpi/knit

Oh not sure "submitted" comes first or "production". My printer is "submitted" too.

U didnt upgrade to 3 years warranty? FYI extending warranty must be done within 60day of, not sure date of receive thr laptop OR date of ordered/payment, thats is wat i get from the sales rep.

U might able to get some idea from the windows error/monitoring/performance reporting log too. Quite useful for ppl who know how to utilize it.

SSD, isnt really a feasible option for now unless sacrificing the dvdrom slot...

if replacing HDD(without sacrificing DVDrom slot) then its either facing
- too small SSD capacity(if wanna spend less) or
- too expensive SSD price (if buy bigger capacity)

hybrid HDD? momentus XT? or wat else u recommend?

what about total 8gb vs 16gb ram?... any idea where to get single 8GB Sodimm? not mainstream yet i believe

Hmm anyone know has the Momentus XT gen2 750GB arrive in Malaysia? and the price?

Looks like its gonna be next week...

It is assemble in China upon order and ship 1 by 1 to Malaysia according to order. back to back assemble and shipment.

Not a single reseller, distributor, and even HP Malaysia have stock for this model now.

=========================================
Definitely i wanna upgrade my HDD to hybrid but im looking for the 2nd gen momentus XT 750gb... cant find any info yet and the price kinda like ~RM705 (convert from USD234)... wondering will it take sometime to reach Malaysia and turn mainstream (affordable)..... if will take long time then might consider the gen1 instead... any input from u guys?
