the HP dv6-6017tx, 6121tx, 6140tx and dv6-6165tx thread

My battery's wear level is at 7 %.is it normal?



U'r fully charged capacity is even higher than designed capacity.My batterys wear level is 7%.Whats u'r usage pattern?I usually charge it fully and use the laptop.also at times i use it while its being charged.

I was also quite surprised to see that the design capacity of my battery(55080mAh) was higher than yours (5060mAh). A wear level of 7-8% in this early stage is quite high. I remember that my last Thinkpad had a wear level of only 28% after 4 years of usage (yes, that is quite unbelievable).

My laptop is turned on for more than 10 hours per day. It is much more on weekends. However, it is on mains supply most of the time and I seldom run the laptop on batteries. There might be chances of overcharging, but it is good so far. Like I posted previously, I was able to watch 2 movies back to back one night, totaling 4 hours 10 minutes, with 16% of charge still left.

Hey guys! This is my first post on this forum. I am kinda confused between Hp DV6 -6017tx and Vaio VPC CB15. I love everything about the beast from HP lineup but only thing i dont know about it is the screen. The one in Vaio is 1080p. Is the screen on the hp(i know its not FHD) good enough? I mean the sharpness, saturation of colors etc. I also miss the backlit keyboard on DV6!

Hello. Welcome to Think Digit Forum

The Dell XPS is a great laptop for 50k. You can even customise it and add a backlit keyboard.


BTW, whats your MAX budget?

My maximum budget is 55k. But it would be nice to get a deal around 53 as i would be able to save some for a Cowon j3 that i am also planning to buy. Dell is not an option as with the standard screen, dell cant stand up to the DV6 in terms of specs. And adding the HD screen will set me back by 6k. So i am just considering the vaio cb15 and the HP beast(DV6) Thanks for the response bro!

I was referring to the DV6 6017tx which the thread is about. The dell u suggested at that price doesnt come with the i7 processor and the Radeon hd 6770m which make the 6017tx unbeatable. I just wanna make sure that the screen is colorful and bright enough. Can u tell how does it compare to the standard dell screen which isnt good as per what i've read about it so far?

 

[cyanide911]

What color is your laptop OP? HP Laptop says the 6017tx is available only in"Dark Umber Metal Finish" but many websites are selling a "Bronze Metal" color.
Any idea if these two colors are the same? Which one is yours?

CD/DVD drives in laptops have slower read write speed. I think you are getting normal speeds

Help me here

Help me here

I've bought mine online too.

They'll give you a proper bill, don't worry. The warranty will be handled by the company (HP) not the person who sells it to you. So as long as you have the original bill with you, HP will provide you the warranty. Same with after sales service.
Just like when you buy it from a normal physical shop

In that case you go to any HP Service Centre with the bill you get when you buy the laptop online.
