Okay. I shall give you guys some more details to help you guide me. My number one purpose would be using IM clients. Followed by using news aggregators. Followed by occasional picture taking. Followed by games. Followed by music and movies. I won't have a 3G connection. Though I do plan...

But all this time I have been reading that the XPERIA's battery is really poor. Also, the S3 scorpion was definitely the weakest chip of 2011. So what is the point of getting such a good screen if the phone can't really power it along? Unfortunately I can't wait. I have to buy by the 20th...

Could you then comment on how much the battery improves? Also, how much battery life does your friend's XS give?

Mobile Buying Guide: December 2012 Could someone please help me decide between the SGS2 and the XPERIA S? I'm torn between the superior processor on the GS2 and the brilliant screen on the XPERIA. @Sam. Brilliant post. :)

I don't particularly like sense. Also, I have to purchase the phone from a brick and mortar store. One S has very poor availability plus the India version uses the same poor performing Scorpion S3. So coupled with a poor processor and power hungry theme, the phone is expected to the very laggy.

I have been using a "dumb"phone for the past 5 years and I am finally ready to make the jump to a smartphone. I have listed down the above phones as suitable candidates based on their price (both costing about 25k on flipkart). So now, I need your help on deciding which way I should go. At...

I am okay with any of the trusted brands. Preferably a netbook as I am not very comfortable with the idea of carrying around those huge 15.6" laptops with num pads. My priorities are: 1. Good battery life. 2. OS present. As in Win7 HB. 3. Decent screen resolution. 4. At least 2 GB of RAM...

So you are suggesting that reinstall ATi drivers on Win8 and try out resource intensive applications to determine whether the 5650 is workin properly or not? Now, while doing my own research on the matter, I came across this thread on HP's support...

I think its a lost cause now. Have been trying to run Win7 all day and every time I try to run it, it takes me straight to system repair. It does not even allow me to boot into safemode. The only hope I had, was to get AMD drivers for my Win8 partition. The installation and everything went quite...

No. The thing is, there are no Win8 specific drivers for the 5650. So to be honest, I have no idea which GFX unit stays on when I'm using Win8. It could be Intel's integrated or the 5650. But, owing to the fact that my laptop gets pretty warm every time I run Win8, I am guessing that the ATi one...

Now, I am not getting the BSOD anymore. Its just the blue dots. But the first time I saw it, I remember reading something about graphics adapter. That happened only when I activated the ATi Mobility Radeon 5650. Now, my computer is stuck on that GFX unit. So whenever I am switching my computer...

Ummm no. The warranty has expired. Any other suggestions?

What is RMA? Also, could dust or over heating cause the problem? Any other suggestions?

HP Envy 14 1015TX Intel Core i5 450M ATi Mobility Radeon 5650 500 GB HDD Operating System Installed : Windows 7 Home Premium My computer has switchable graphics. I hadn't used the high performance graphics unit for quite some time. Could be 3 to 4 months. Recently after procuring a game, I...

So given the fact that the Veer has a 800Mhz processor and 512MB of RAM, for how much time do you expect it to last? I mean do yoi expect it to get further updates and stuff from HP? currently both Pre 3 and Veer are running WebOS 2.2
