I purchased this laptop on Feb 2011. Till that time I am using my laptop very roughly. I didnt faced any problem till now. The laptop is very robust, with i5 processor, 4 GB RAM and 500 GB hard disk size. It comes with inbuilt 1 GB graphics card. Very comfortable to play PC games on it. One problem I faced while I was trying to increase the RAM of my laptop. My laptop is not supporting the RAM above 4 GB. I tried to do it last month at authorized service center of DELL at Siliguri. They are telling there is some issue with the processor of my laptop. The laptop costs under budget of middle class man like me. On 201, the price was Rs 40, 000.
The battery backup is very good. It is of almost 1 hour 40 minutes for my 15 inch large screen. No complaints regarding battery. I replaced my first battery on October 2013 due to low backup. I replaced it with original battery of DELL which costs Rs 3600. I suggest all the readers of this review not to use pirated or local battery and battery chargers if you love your electronic gadgets. Thank you
