Curious as to the number of people switching to the m14x in place of their m15x. Torn between switching over as I love my m15x but hate the throttling (on battery) and battery life limitations.
Are you taking the plunge, keeping your m15x, or keeping both systems.
-
I, for one, do not know what to do.... keep the m15x until my warranty ends or something?
Trade?
For m14x? for m17x? -
By trade I just meant getting rid of m15x for a newer model since they are doing away with system.
Not sure keeping both systems seems logical. -
Although its very tempting to trade the M15x, since it is supposed to be discontinued, i just can't convince myself to give it up for an M14x simply because the 5850 is such a good card, and I don't want a downgrade in performance for the GT 555M. The only thing that I like about the M14x is that its the ideal size/weight, even though its probably bigger than a standard 14 incher.
Also the M17x/M18x are just too expensive, so I'd rather not go there at all. -
Well, I have a 5730 on my machine.... it might be a better option to trade.... is it? but my system is refurbished....
-
I plan on going to the M18x.

Should've made a poll?

I'm hoping to trade for a M17x R3.

Yeah good luck to the both of us. I highly doubt it is possible, guess I'll just put mine up for sale and recycle the money.
-
Hell no not for the m14x, yes for an m17x r3 and put in some extra.cash, if not ill buy an m18x in about a year......
-
I'll keep my M15x!
-
I'll keep my M15x, has plenty of power for everything, so my question is what for?
-
They say it's not the size it's how you use it.
-
If the laptop is within warranty, do you think Dell would exchange it for a M14X?

@Even - no. They will only think of exchanging a model if no more exist or the parts are not available if your laptop breaks.

Thought about it, but don't like the idea of having a laptop I can't upgrade. Feels like a step in the wrong direction. I'd love to go up to an M17x R3, but they're a lot of cash in the UK (my next stop), even with just the essential upgrades. That being the 1080p screen and the 6970. Interested to see what happens with the M14x R2 though.
Anyone trading in their m15x for a m14x?
