4 reasons not to buy Vostro V131. 1) System overheats 2) Noisy fan 3) Loose/rattling components 4) Dell refuses to accept flaws
@BusinessComputingTV Samsung has just launched the Samsung Series 7 Chronos. Looks great for video editing – and half the price of a similarly-priced MacBook Pro.
Well, Dell does offer the Inspiron 15R with Intel Core i7-2670QM (2.20 Ghz, 6MB, 4C) and 1GB nVidia GeForce GT 525M (Quad Core). Is a 15-inch screen too big?
@BusinessComputingTV ok thank you for the info. So what portable laptop would you recommend? at a budget about the same price as this v131
@RockstarrRoyaL Not great because it doesn’t have a dedicated graphics chipset (uses Intel’s CPU-integrated HD Graphics 3000) and the screen is only 1,366-by-768 pixels. Also, I don’t think there’s a Core i7 option. And there’s no optical drive, if that bothers you.
HEy, is this a good laptop for video editing and memory consuming programs such as adobe products? Im looking for a nice light weight portable laptop that is capable to work fast and has a good stable speed for editing and music.
@saneh1989 Sadly, the Intel HD 2000 Graphics graphics card can’t be updated. Also, it’s not that great for games. There are much better gaming laptops available.
hey can d graphic card be upgraded ??? wats d present 1 now??? is is suitable for playin games??? and can it play 1080p videos well???
@TomyyY90 Yes, you’re right, a good deal. Just remember that Ultrabooks are on the way.
@BusinessComputingTV thanks! i think it’s a good offer from dell – especially with the umts-module!
right now with i5 and 4gb ddr3 320gb hdd ~530€ … upgrading to 8gb and a SSD+1TB external drive around 750€ ! which is awesome!
@TomyyY90 I believe it’s a 2.5″ drive, given that the V130/V13/Latitude 13 used 2.5″ drives.
what is the size of the harddisk? is it 2,5 inch or 1,8 inch?
i’m thinkin of getting a vostro but upgrading a SSD by myself.
@ifuckednatalietran Really. Wow! Sorry about that…
you show every angle except for the back!
@ArneBergsch Hi ArneBergsch. Yes, the screen was as its brightest throughout the video.
@kattemissen You’re welcome. And thanks for your feedback.
Very good video! thanks
