Hi all. proud owner of Z5 since July 2017.

Before this i was kinda regret on purchasing it just right before the launch of Raven which has mechanical keyboards.

However, the chasis aluminium and stylish design of Z5 has attracted many queries and "jealousy" eyesights from my colleagues and strangers in cafe.

I must say for people who has sweaty palm like me, its better to opt for Z series or Laguna which has chasis aluminium design.

Cheers

Thanks for your feedback smile.gif

My laptop dies if I unplug the AC, this is a recent problem, and I was hoping to unplug and replug the battery to see if this fixes it.

How do I remove the back chasis of the illegear z5? I see 9 Screws, but I don't dare to pry open the back cover.

If I go to Illegear in Damansara, if the battery is faulty, how long do I need to wait to get it fixed?

Hi cheong,

We will try to replace it on the spot to avoid double trips, kindly pm me with your serial for time arrangement.

Hi Akmal, kindly PM me your ILG serial number, will help to check accordingly.

For the ownership transfer, we would need the original owner's IC as well as the proof of purchase for the ownership transfer application to be processed properly, hope clarify.

Hi Christopher, the battery issue mostly affects a certain batch (10% of total) of Z-series owners and the issue is no longer happening on Raven and Laguna

Hi ApostLes, I believe a battery recalibration is recommended for your case. Personally, I also like to recalibrate the battery from time to time to ensure that the battery remains in good condition & the lifespan is prolonged.

By the way, not very satisfied with the Illegear Cust support, 3mths ago my ac-dc converter for my charger spoilt n desperately looking for a replacement. Thus, I contacted the Illegear CS, they told me this part out of stock need to wait for shipment like 1mth plus like that. Alamak, how am I supposed to use the laptop w/o power supply? And they never give me any constructive advice on this matter, lucky I go to the PC shop and found a 150W equivalent replacement(from A**S) for it...u know what? It was cheaper than the one from Illegear and most importantly it works!!!

P/S: I got no complaint about the laptop itself, it was totally banged for my bucks...until all these problems popped up

Hi ahkiat93, kindly note that both the power adapter and the battery for Z5 are now in stock for replacement. Regarding your issue, may I get your ILG850XXXXL or IT1C10XXXN serial number to check? You can PM me or WhatsApp at 018-2618599. Will assist accordingly.
