IBM laptop battery - Li-Ion

Dell Laptop

Advantages: Looks and feels good, easy to work and carry about
Disadvantages: battery broken within a year

This laptop is really good. however I have owned mine for just under a year now and the battery has broken so I need to get it fixed which is very annoying. Apart from the battery breaking I think that the laptop is great and I would buy a Dell laptop again. I use my laptop everyday but i would have expected the batttery to last longer, especially seeing as it is dell. Now I have the hassel of getting the battery fixed. I would still reccomend this dell laptop to other people as it is good value for money and looks nice etc and apart from the battery the laptop is easy to use and I haven't had any other problems with it. Dell is usually a reliable service and hopefully it wont be too bad having to get the battery fix, if not then I can buy a new battery. ...

Review of Dell Inspiron 1545 Laptop

Nice laptop, FAB extended warranty!

Advantages: Good specs, fast, wonderful extended warranties
Disadvantages: Feels a bit flimsy, no indicator lights showing wifi connection, etc.

. My husband really enjoys this laptop for playing games, but that is not the laptop's main purpose for him and anyone who wants a gaming machine probably needs to do some research. It doesn't have indicator lights showing when the hard drive is working or when wifi is connected or when it's running on battery power (like my old Dell Inspiron does). Some people hate that. I'm not too bothered as I rarely paid attention to those lights, anyway. It also has buttons on the keypad to let you mute or change volume, which is very nice as my husband's last laptop didn't have that and it seemed to take forever for him to get the volume down if an ad popped up or a page had music! My current laptop has the "media" keys on the edge of the case facing me, which I like best, but having them on the keypad is a nice second-best option. The laptop also ...

Review of Dell Inspiron 1545 Laptop

Very happy with this laptop.

Advantages: Comfortable, Long battery life, bright screen, nice keyboard
Disadvantages: Only 3 USB ports, Badly placed headphone jack,

Previously, when buying laptops I normally went to the cheapest one I could find with the most RAM, but when this laptop was the first I actually spent a over £300 on. I am incredibly pleased with my purchase and haven't regretted it at one bit. I bought mine with an upgraded battery and graphics card so I could play video games. Battery Life: - lasts about 1 hour while playing games and about 2-3 while surfing the web or using word or powerpoint. Screen: - Bright and vibrant. Keyboard and Mouse: - The keyboard is very nice. - The touchpad however can be a little unresponsive, especially the scrollbar on the right side, and the zoom thing on the left. Extra Features: - Lots of extra media buttons on the function keys. This is very useful for changing songs etc, while playing games and it means you don't have to minimize ...
