My unit does not have this problem.

I have used the left port to charge my phone and tablet, I did not see the problem as you described.

It is better to send your unit for repair.

Where can I buy this laptop ? Actually my budget is rm2500 ... :cry:But I don't mind exceeding the budget a bit .

I want a laptop that can play casual games such as dota 2, assasin creed 2,outlast ...And also do my school stuff. So is this laptop suitable for me?

Just asking. does the touchpad support multi touch?

Yes.

But mine doesn't seems to have one???
Is there any settings to enable it or I should just call dell?

question here..is it the fan sound is so loud ? can feel the air blowing from the left side.. got any setting?

just wan to ask any issue of heat when playing game in the non aircond room for this Inspiron 7447 ?
what is the ram type use ?
no extra slot for SSD ? have to swap the HDD for SSD ?

Thanks

can swap the optical drive with ssd.

No issue so far. Only randomly got blue screen before realise that I have not install nvidia driver.
Type of RAM?
No extra slot. Either swap HDD to SSD or put SSD at HDD and put HDD at optical drive slot.

Have you try swap optical drive with SSD. How laptop to recognise which one is system drive?

You may PM me how, im doing a guide and review too, going to update the thread tonight.

Any comments on the fan noise? Is it constantly spinning and can be heard ?

fan is spinning all the time but it's verry quiet, you can't hear it unless you go with your ear 5cm in front of the fangrill. With 100% CPU load you cant hear the fan either but you hear the airflow sound which is verry nice low herz sound. The fan itself really don't do wierd squeeze or other high frequenzy noise. Besides the speakers are really outstandig, it has really base, it is a verry clear sound and verry loud. The Dell 7447 Pandora sound pulverise the sound of a Asus Rog G55-VW (until now the Asus Rog G55-VW was my personal reference for laptops max 15.6inch.

Most important, it is upgradeable to 16 GB (2x8GB) 2133Mhz.
I am running Kingston HyperX Impact Black 16GB Kit (2x8GB) 2133MHz DDR3L SODIMM 1.35V (HX321LS11IBK2/16),
Timings CL-11 tRCD-12 tRP-13 tRAS-35 CR-2 tRFC-278
The HyperX Kit is verry stable, benchmarks provide always a verry verry similar score, so well quality Ram. Attached is a Screenshot from 8GB original 1600 vs 16GB HyperX 2133
Maybe the Corsair Venegance Performance 16GB Kit (2x8GB) 2133 Mhz DDR3L SODIMM 1.35V fits as well,

Thanks for the feedback. A noisy laptop can be quite irritating at times. I also read that its a fingerprint magnet? Is this true?

I would say No, not more than other mat black surfaces. My wife and me have 4 Laptops, all are the same if you look at the fingerprints. This Laptop is less fingerprint magnet than a glossy laptop but more fingerprint magnet than a aluminium laptop (apple pro book).

In the end, I was looking since ages (5 years) for a 14 inch laptop with power, discrete grafik, dvd, backlight keyboard and 5 hour stamina if surfing through the www. I found it.
Be careful to choose the right Dell 7447 Pandora with FullHD Display (1920x1080). Dell changed it to crap Display with 1366x788, may because the Pandora was to good to be true and to dangerous for the way to big, to expensive Dell Alienware Laptop Brothers.

I love the discrete 4GB variant of the GTX850m, true, its just DDR3 but you can't find 4GB GDDR5.
For CAD, Photoshop CC14 Video rendering with Camera Raw Filter and Big Maps Games I just need as much Ram I can get.
The Asus Rog G55-VW (GTX660m, 2GB GDDR5) I have is not that fast in Photoshop video rendering (Camera Raw Filter can be used for videos as well).
So, I love my FHD Dell 7447 Pandora even more after the upgrade to 16GB DDR3L 2133Mhz HyperX impact.

The Best screen calibration I found so far for the FullHD Display (AUO B140HAN)
is a ICC profile from Win7x64 called: sRGB IEC61966-2.1 that is even slightly better than the screen calibration from Notebookcheck.com for a Lenovo T440s.
This screen calibration for the Lenovo T440s, can be used for the FHD variant display AUO B140HAN of the Dell 7447 Pandora.
You can compare it by yourself with other profiles like the sRGB IEC61966-2.1.

The only laptop which is nearly same as good in max 14 inch was the Gigabyte P34GV2-CF2 BUT there is no optical drive and it is ugly. All of the custom build Laptop you find have no optical drive if they are 14 inch or under. For me, a optical drive is important.

i want to buy this laptop, do it need to buy i7 instead of i5? do the performance for NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 850M 4GB DDR3 is good? how the performance of the keyboard and touchpad? What is good and bad of this laptop. Thanks

define good and bad from your point of view (whats your purpose to get the laptop? normal work? gaming? designing?)
if not gaming then what you need to do is upgrade the hdd to ssd and ram to 16gb/32gb low voltage
