starting from last year, i had some thoughts on Dell that their marketing strategy is a bit funny. they implemented U processors instead of giving a moderate one. i think their main aim is on moderate usage. with that price, i could buy a N550JV which has a better processor and more lighter.

one person will never change a laptop that he is happy with unless they are chasing the specs.

you already have a good CPU rig, so that makes your gaming session on a PC more worth than on a laptop.

yeah, the new Inspirons are really premium. i kinda like the 17" models, and have some mood to give up gaming so might ended up purchase one of it some day.

anyway, where will you be having a trip? if it is outside Bolehland, I might add it in my 'Places must visit before I die' booklet.

rumor has it that it uses an insane screen reso, even larger than Apple's retina display.
still awaiting the US site to be refreshed.

because this is bolehland.

not fuel price hike only, also the increase of foreign currency price.

Dell just dont wanna straight forward with consumers that there is a mSATA slot.

no takers at the moment but i had my hands on it.

haha, no. im way too poor for that.
need wait for my internship allowance, upgrade my phone 1st.

hands on at retailer only. i done this last week.

sifu, processor model typo. it is i7-4702HQ.

so that basically means there is no chance to slot in a 2.5" SSD or HDD for upgrading the storage.
sacrificing HDD slot for battery life.

it goes up to RM7600 if you upgrade with branded 960GB SSD (Crucial M500). model and pricing is malaysia's full spec XPS 15. the 512GB version of MBP 15 RD costs RM8700.

i still prefer the Inspiron 15 7000 as a better multimedia laptop than the XPS 15 or MBP 15 RD. the thinness of both the XPS and MBP will kill the internal parts after a long term. you should know why.

do or search for a review is better than trusting claims.

dont you like the design of the new Inspiron 15 7000? it also looks clean and stylish.

agree. just the minor disadvantage is Illegear and MSI lacks of premium feel (except GS70).

TJ, Apple Macbook Pro with Retina is refreshed with Haswell processors. now default base units come with Intel Iris graphics. it claims to have 9 hours on the 13 and 8 hours on the 15.

i dont think this model comes with Iris integrated, since it has a dedicated GPU.

for the XPS 13, dont know much about it. just hope it will slap in Iris. btw, i think they will ditch XPS 14, as XPS 15 is available in Malaysia market now.

eh? in before i read that there isnt something stated Iris graphics.

got it.
the funny thing is Apple not willing to let people know which processor model they are using. really need to dig deeper for details.

the only thing is bro viper got commission for helping peoples to buy.

lowyat Dell retailer workers were not giving discounts. they say they have to follow online price to sell.

yeah, the 1st time i heard this, i silently told myself, good luck bro.
