Don't believe 40 units can come at one go

well it's asus as u can see.. everything they say is lies.. company that tell fibs.... they just say anything they want and then say anything they want to cover up.. maybe later they will tell u.. we would like to deliver.. we had it prepared.. but then somebody robbed our deliver van, bus, car, transport, airplane .. or what so ever it is..

warranty ok bro...problem is stock

i thought alot of peeps are having trouble with asus malaysia warranty.. my friend was just trying out the warranty service... (we couldn't find the driver for bluetooth) tried quite alot of drivers.. even from the website. but nothing works.. so he say he want to try asus service center.. since under wrranty.. 2 months bro.. 2 months.. then only get back laptop.. and that is some scratch... (since we didn't know asus had this bad service we didn't have a screen shot to prove) and also everything in the hardisk is formatted... (3 partition.. all gone.. ) this is only 1 part... the other part is... when he come to KL just to fetch his laptop.. they couldn't find it.. really cannot find.. give them 3 hours.. still cannot fin the laptop... then they ask to come later..but my friend insisted that they deliver or post it him..since he is quite bz... next day called asus center.. they say they will post it.. waited 3 days.. still nothing.. called asus center.. now they answer dunno..friend go back to asus center.. took them 1 hour to find that laptop... only to see that (like i said scratch and all partition deleted) really dissapointed with asus.. cannot scold also.. coz both times he went there. always someone scolding asus frontdesk..

this called ok?

your friend is one in many people who go to asus service center..my brother asus laptop got hdd problem, and the service center fixed it in 2 days(penang service center..so is my 2 friends(1 display connection prob and 1 more trackpad problem)
*
i really forgot u're in penang shakehead.gif .. asus service center for kl area.. really shocking.gif

maybe my friend (along with a "few" are unlucky) 2 times go asus center. 2 times see ppl scold them at front desk.. lol.. really epic... i dunno is called coincidence or what..

QUOTE(Joker @ Jun 22 2012, 06:52 PM)
Which service center bro? Now I am having second thought on ASUS...if rosak time and ASUS service center do this to me then...

Any more ASUS service center experience to share?
*
oh for more experience actually got here in forum lowyat smile.gif really bad experience with them... some expensive mobo kena scratch... those cables that were included during warranty.. when came back.. not even returned... screws lost.. hahaa.. really asus =.=... i think for other places.. is ok..

anyone know what is the most major disadvantage of this laptop?.. i know it has a long wait but other then that? anything? Im hoping to get this laptop
*
despite the awesome looks its heavy compared to other 15.6 and even some 17.3" laptop sweat.gif .. and major problem known is the sound system.. even if u plugged in external speaker still will produce sound from the laptop speaker meaning if u had headset on.. and watching something very "interesting" cool.gif then abit disadvantagous. doh.gif sweat.gif

other than that.. if u are concerned about the heat.. (which goes above 80+) u might need to repaste the thermal .. one forumer from ROG claimed that he got lower temperature result after doing so. but this will void ur warranty.. rclxub.gif

other than that... its bad for student. coz it's a desktop replacement meaning u could play almost every game in high setting.. and instead of studying u are one game after another.. rclxm9.gif rclxms.gif thumbup.gif

so far thats it.. maybe other forumer might know smile.gif

owh..so if u replace de hdd wit sdd void de warranty la? flex.gif

the cover to access HDD and the 2 slot ram has no void seal.. thus wont void if u open it.. but if u want to access the another 2 ram + msata.. which will need u to disassemble the laptop... then u will have to void the warranty

*
got 4 slot of ram.. 2 is non accessible or warranty void then can access.. another 2 slot is empty.. so u can upgrade those.. smile.gif msata is mini sata... a smaller version of sata.. so if u dont want to lose all that space and in need for speed.. msata is the only choice.. rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

but the sound sistem isnt lousy right? just got a bug where if you plug in an external speaker or headphone, the main speaker will still produce sound?

well according to most owner of G55 .. quite satisfied with the sound system.. only that will produce sound when u plugged in and planning to watch piap piap thumbup.gif

i actually ordered it for my brother who was going to UTAR at kampar, and i let him have my 4 years old laptop temporarily as i am having holiday from uni in sg, but then now i am thinking about getting myself a new laptop too.
i ordered through my friend, he is normally known as gigaleon and quite active in jbtalks, not sure if u know about him
lets hope it don't end up being the real XMAS  brows.gif any idea about msata ssd price? anyone? biggrin.gif probably 80GB
*
well i'm very sure it wont be anything below rm400.. for a 60gb msata ssd cost around RM405. (price quoted from hikari85) not so sure if there will big difference from other reseller rclxms.gif

We don't carry stock from ASUS Malaysia, since they don't even have excess stock of G55VW, we doubt they have the G75VW in stock, just like G74SX, only shown on the catalogue.

Our G75VW are imported units, lead + shipping time is 7 to 14 days.

nice rclxms.gif if i know this would happen earlier to asus malaysia vmad.gif i would rather order from outside.. rather than waiting 2 months vmad.gif

One of my fren ordered G53SX early this year from US....took two weeks to ship here.

well 2 weeks is also way much extremely absolute better than 2 months waiting right? its 2 weeks vs 8 weeks smile.gif which would u prefer.. ur stock is suppose to be .. lets say.. 50 km away.. but then won't arrive.. compared to something that is (lets exaggerate this abit) 50000 km but then arrived after 2 weeks...

not so sure if there is enough stock for everyone... coz it's Asus.. well known for messing up with stock and after sales service.. but according to my seller he's getting his stock next week.. although i'm not putting high hopes coz i'll just have mental breakdown if the laptop didn't arrive... thats how all of us survives here..
lol... some of us already give up.. and went for another model instead smile.gif

Warranty could be hassle, I am not trying  to bad mouth Sager, they got awesome machine, it's all up to you.

yep.. aside from the faster breast...

true.. although it could be hassle.. i rarely see any problem with sager products.. compared to asus.. they really have to do something with their quality control + after sales service.. which is much much more hassle than i could ever imagine.. and alot more annoying.. lol
