Hi all,

Is anyone experiencing chassis wobble on tables ? mine seem to wobble when I open the lid, specifically, on the left hand rest.

Hi Azim,

Actually this is my 3rd Selenite, it has wobble on all 3 models on certain tables, in my office it wobbles, but not on the room desk. But sometimes it doesn't wobble. It's very inconsistent. Hence I'm not sure is it manufacturing problem or what, but of the 3 models it's all on the left hand side of the palm rest.

But I've tried to measure the level-ness of the table that caused the laptop to wobble, actually is the table's surface itself that has issue, my office desk has a slight imperfection on the level-ness of it which cause the laptop to wobble.

Because on the table beside mine, the Selenite doesn't wobble.I think is due to the rubber feet being too thin and the laptop being so close contact to the surface, which caused it to wobble, unlike those big bulky laptops, who have a lot of surface clearance.

Just speculating here. That's why I'm asking others on this. The only strange thing is, it's only wobbling on the left side.



I'm Adriel by the way. I think you know, who am I.

Hi,

Did you try out on a few tables or only one ? I did a few tests myself, I notice that tables that has small imperfections ( Ie : the surface is warped slightly etc ) is the reason why the Selenite seems to wobble. Because for my case, my house's table is fine, since it's glass table, but my office table it wobbles, because it's wood and when I observe the surface of the table, it's warped ( office table has a slight ,very slight, curve )

I think the Selenite is a good benchmark to make sure your table is properly surface leveled.

Do try it out and let me know.

The wobbling is on which side ? mine is on the left palm rest, I put a piece of 1-time-folded A4, under the rubber feet, it's fine...but the table beside mine, has no wobble at all. It's so mind-effing.

Alright, I did found out something yesterday, my laptop is no longer wobbling now even on my work desk, it has something to do with the tightness of the screws on the bottom lid.

Do try it out, see if it helps, unscrew the screws a little, and see if it wobbles. It fixed mine, hopefully can fix yours.

Have anyone tried booting into safe mode ?

I can't seem to boot into safe mode, although the device is new. Fresh window installed too. The laptop just black screen.
