Good one bro! Saw the real one last weekend at midvalley and frankly speaking, i dont like matte rubberly-like external.

Thanks for the thread!!

Any idea if this latest Lenovo Y40 is better than this Dell 7447?

http://www.lowyat.net/2015/01/new-lenovo-y...e-i7-processor/

specs of Lenovo seems like it has a lower graphics card compared to the Dell (but DDR5 memory bro) and lower power CPU
But this will of course translate into lower battery usage. (look at Lenovo processor: xxxxU VS xxxxM) Only problem with me is the monitor which is non-IPS, which will turn into a bit of hassle when i show friends how to do certain work.

but put that out of the equation, the functional design (side vents unlike bottom Dell vents) of the Lenovo and good choice of processor puts Lenovo a bit ahead.

hrmm...does changing the harddisk will void warranty? plan to buy 1 but want to change my own ssd....can be done?

I bought from Cyntrix, and yes, this is official registered dell warranty if Cyntrix says so...
i called dell to check and have the 1yr warranty.

can i know which shop got show this 7447 ips full hd version? Had been went to lowyat but non of the shop show this unit...I only able found a 7447 but without the full hd ips screen

Hi, wanna ask if any owner having light leaking out from the bottom of the screen when it's totally in black color? The moment i start up this laptop, when it shows Dell logo, i can see clearly there are at least 2 white light leaking from the bottom. It happens only in black screen. Is this normal?

Hi daruma, so excited for your new rig

Do you geet to keep the 1TB hard drive? how much Viewnet charged for this whole thing?
how was the performance so far?

nope, it doesn't void the warranty as listed under Dell: u can swap the HDD back if it does anyways.

check the PC fairs. they always sell the highest spec one, which is the IPS one.

i have not seen this yet. what model and specs is it?

that ain't good. abit worried when order and when arrived is like this.

Thanks for your reply. It's 7447. I7, 1920x1280 IPS that one, without the backlight for keyboard (but unexpected "backlight" at the screen bottom and right, hahaha)

Checked the warranty, this is originated from Thailand, not Malaysia version.

Searched online no such case for 7447. Only some cases for 7437 in other countries.

Where did you get it? How about warranty?

I got it from Cyntrix tech. Not sure about the warranty, asked them, but probably they were too busy and overlooked my question. Didn't ask any further.

If its from cyntrix tech then it should have 1 year warranty from dell.

When is the pc fair? Cant wait to get 1.. Of course not pc fair but outside.. Haha

This not a good sign bro, better ask them where to claim to warranty.. Btw is the 7447 full hd ips does not come with backlitt led or your version dont have? Where is the 7447 made in? China or malaysia?

That is not a good sign bro, better call them where to claim the warranty. Is the 7447 comes with backlit led or not? Or only your version dont have? Can i get more review about the 7447 full hd ips screen? Cause really care about it.

hey i just bought this and it's awesome.... until...

do you get screen flicker? its work fine for 2 weeks.. until now its often flickers.. i tried to ignore but its annoying.. do you get problem like me?

Basically just avoid the "pure black screen", then it wont be revealing only when watch the movie with two horizontal black bar, u will be annoyed. hahaha.
So far have not seen any review same case as mine.
