ya...i compared with another compaq laptop...u can see the difference between these two, its not sharp enogh but 1520 works fine i think...did ur lappy comes with truelife?

GC NVIDIA GeForceTM Go 8400M GS with 128MB dedicated GDDR3 graphics memory.

How is the quality?

It comes only with GDDR2. That's a typo or misleading clause.

Quality is definitely better than Intel GMA X1300.

it's Intel GMA X3100

Opps ... sorry, I'm confused with ATI X1xxx series.

yup it comes with truelife...

Grainy screen is the whole screen covering with little black specs. Just imagine as if you kept your laptop for a long time and there's a layer of dust on your screen.

so far i dun see any problm on the screen yet

hello brother, we are talking about the new inspiron here, what a layer of dust? come on...it's not that serious...the grainy thing is internally not externally...its a layer of white paper which u can c some texture embedded behind...

can someone show me a screen with this so called grainy stuff?

Hi,

My gf is an owner of a Pink Dell Inspiron 1520. I found out that the screen (TrueLife) is not as good as what I have seen in other lappies. The viewing angle is too small to me and the max. resolution available is only 1280 x 800

Besides that, the biggest turn-off is the weight Luckily my gf buys it for indoor use and seldom bring it out (except going back hometown). The lappy bag is another turn-off. She didn't managed to get backpack but the backpack is not any better

hmmm... for performance i guess u got to sacrifice the weight right ???

sure got laptop weight/performance all rounder what

Ya, I have to admit that its price is too juicy

But after a visit to PC Fair, many other brands are having price slash as well. Anyway, this lappy is really very affordable for its specs.

Does anyone have problem with the screen? The viewing angle is rather a bit too little to me... wait, I have just found out that this only happen to movie but not so obvious for other application like web surfing (The lappy is beside my desktop )

then u have to sacrifice the price lor
nothing is perfect in this world hahaha

I'm sure there're ultra-weight performance based laptop. Somehow, those desktop replacement models tend to be heavier.

Im getting mine in 2 weeks, jet black wxga with true life.
Whats the news on the on-board 2 MP camera? Does anyone have any comments on that hardware? I wanted to get 1420 but since I will be using it mostly at home, why squint to play games and watch tv series

yes i agree but price isn't the problem

Then you should get 1520 but instead to go for XPS M1330.

the problem is M1330 is small and i dun like it cos it doesn't have pink colour
