I bought this laptop a week back. Flipkart delivered the laptop within promised time frame of 5 days. I somehow managed to get a good bargain price using a few offers and I knew from the start I might be compromising on quality and features but the specs were great for the price tag. nnThe very first thing I noticed was the laptop doesn't have a power LED, so if you shut the lid or your power configuration turn the screen off there's no way you could tell whether the laptop is on or off. It has got an average built quality nothing like latitude or thinkpad series but a decent chassis.nnThe speakers work wonder thanks to Maxx Audio, my 4 years old Hp laptop has more powerful speakers than this humble gadget. I almost always have to use a headphone. Needless to say no bass and weak mids. nnThe biggest let down was that the laptop support only 4GB of RAM!! I called up Dell after using the laptop for a day or two, inquiring about RAM upgrade options, I was very politely made aware that the laptop doesn't support more than 4 GB RAM and that Flipkart should have mentioned the same in the product description.nnAlso the Complete Cover warranty and Part warranty are valid upto June 2013. When I raised the issue with dell, the simple answer was the laptop was shipped to merchant in June and hence the warranty cover expires in June itself. Please contact flipkart regarding the warranty.nnUtterly disappointed by 4 GB RAM limitation and missing/incompetent features I called up flipkart for a return/exchange for a better model. I got a callback next day and the lady was not ready to understand any logic but stuck to one single point that the product page says the laptop comes with 4GB RAM so its implied that it supports maximum 4GB RAM only. I mean common what kind of people flipkart has hired, such people can only be used to sell rotten stuff and fight with customer without any logical grounds. As far as warranty is concerned I am still waiting for reply. Flipkart deserves a standing ovation for customer service, I'd trust a scrap dealer more than flipkart at least they standby their words and have nothing to hide.nnI am soon dropping in a notice to Flipkart and WS retail for misrepresenting and willfully hiding important information such as warranty and hardware limitations of the laptop from the consumer.nnDon't waste your time and money on this product.
I bought this laptop about a month ago, and strongly recommend it to people who want a good general purpose/gaming laptop.nnOS: Ubuntu is a very stable OS, boot time is quick. The advantage of buying a laptop with Ubuntu or Linux is that they are a solid 4-5k cheaper than laptops with Windows, which have a license charge. Can anyways get Windows from outside.nnScreen: No issues with the screen. Anti-glare sort of works, I guess.nnKeyboard: Standard, no issues.nnTouchpad: Standard touchpad, no pointless different syled keypads like in certain HP laptops. Easy to use.nnSize: The reason I bought a 14 inch laptop is because being a college student, it si far easier to manage. It is more than large enough to watch movies, and it also weighs less, which is a very important factor. Can easily be carried around in 1 hand. I don't know why 15.6 inch has become the industry standard, but I recommend 14 inch to anyone who is not a hardcore gamer or wants a large screen for videos.nnWeight: Light and convenient.nnLooks: Perhaps the only negative factor of the laptop. Doesn't really look bad, but it isn't one of those laptops which makes someone stand up and take notice. Very durable though! And unlike other laptops with a glossy finish, which start to look old after a while, this one probably looks the same with time too.nnFinish: Simple, slightly old-styled. Long lasting, seems like.nnVGA/HDMI: Only VGA available. If HDMI is a need for you, this laptop is a strict no-buy.nnPerformance: In one word, Excellent. With those sort of specs, can't expect any less! Works smoothly, no lag at all. No issues here!
