QUOTE(AthrunIJ @ May 17 2015, 10:09 AM) As for processor and RAM, the Core M processor is on par with laptop i3 and i5 U models so for normal usage it is fine. As for RAM standard (For me anyways) is 8Gb as of now. 4Gb is sufficient but if you are the kind who likes to open multiple tabs and programs then the more RAM is better. I heard window 7 driver is more stable than window 8 but not sure. In the end free upgrade to windows 10 anyways. I'm using a touchscreen 15 inch laptop and it helps on the days when i forgot to bring my mouse along. Touchpad not so use to it.  Remember there were an argument bout core m n I5.. haha

QUOTE(josh1031 @ May 18 2015, 02:23 PM) I did some finding and currently deciding to go for Asus K401lb model. But looking through the forum, alot people recommend Dell Inspiron 7447 as one of the contender to the model. But i dont have good experience with Dell (using a 5 years old Inspiron laptop and gives me alot of headache) Can anyone confirm that Dell has improved its laptop quality recently. Coz from the spec sheet, 7447 is really tempting. *dillemma* Bro... dell onsite warranty wat..claim Kao Kao la...

QUOTE(josh1031 @ May 18 2015, 04:50 PM) hahhaha.. so is it wrong to say that Dell purposely make low quality/lifespan laptops and focus more on customer + warranty to win customers? Coz ya without a doubt customer service Dell is best la. Quality of Dell laptops i heard some mixed reviews though. ya thats exactly the reason I choose Asus K401lb. Dunno whether there are any users out thr to give me a review b4 buying. Haih, but Dell Inspiron 7447 swayed me abit with its GTX graphic card + decent price tag.  FYI Inspiron 7447 is based on Xps studio... tat y it has better quality than other Inspiron... other Inspiron quality mix mix... if dell warranty like ASUS they really should eat sand... But u must know Xps, Alienware, latitude n precision quality r slightly above their competitor

QUOTE(josh1031 @ May 18 2015, 05:29 PM) totally agree, which is why i question the quality of Dell laptops due to my not so good experience with my previous laptop.  Ohh.. thanks for your clarification. So it will be relatively safe to buy dell laptops that are not from inspiron line lol.. Only 7447, 7537, 7737 r safer from Inspiron range... 5547 on n off wifI kacau
