The Samsung Series 5 550P Laptops Thread

[nikhildewan]

I am facing a strange issue, don't know exactly what it is. This effect is very much noticeable in white color. It is noticeable when pure white changes to off white and vice versa, a slight color difference occurs. It is not fixed to anything particular instance, happens anytime, during games, browsing, movies etc. Anybody facing this issue? And what's this issue named? Is it worth paying attention?

And how to clean dust from the plastic net just above the keyboard? It is gathering a lot of dust particles in its holes. Don't have any size of vaccum cleaner.

Im currently possessing the i5 version (S01) version of the lappy. Now is it possible to replace its DVD optic drive with BLU RAY drive (like the one in i5 version)?? If possibe, please provide me with a link from where i can purchase the BR drive...

not possible i guess, it will void your warranty if you open the laptop.

Dont know where to find a blu-ray drive but, replacing anything wont void the warranty.
At least that isnt the case in Dell laptops.

In my case warranty is not an issue..

Hi, even I have experienced the same the same thing. looks like dynamic lighting at first. But yes it happens very randomly.

Secondly use a toothbrush to clean out the speaker grill and the dirt that collects in between the keys.

One dealer is quoting 61k for the i7 model in bangalore also he is not giving any goodies. I am also eager to know what is best price for this lappy now.

Its adaptive brightness. It saves battery and you can turn it off from power options if you want.

Does i3 with higher grades are equivalent to i5 of lower class as both have 2 cores

Thanks. You saved me a lot of frustration and finally I've been able to turn it off. Thanks.

HELP ME CHOOSING THE RIGHT ONE..

I know Samsung NP550P5C-S01IN has 1600x900 resolution and good pixel density with 300 nits brightness.bt also has poor contrast ratio of 121:1 while both Dell inspiron 15R and its SE version has approx 553:1(glossy one) and 500:1(matte).. if anyone has looked up both laptop screen then plz give me good advice

I don't know to what extent these data are accurate but contrast ratio is also making me think... Actually speaking, i am more concerned about screen than graphics card. One member suggested me to change the lappy's screen but i am not sure if the screen is available in the market or not. I am totally in love with everything of this lappy except the screen. Can we make the screen better by any means ??? External monitor is not an option for me. please help anyone...

Samsung increased the price of the i5 version. The current price is Rs.55,190 and still showing as no stock :l
