    I could've sworn that my warranty was expiring in March 2021 but not it says April? I bought my laptop on the 7th of March. Also it looks like the laptop was Manufactured in July of 2019 how does Dell know when I bought it from the store and increased the warranty accordingly?

    I did hear Dell extending a month or two on select regions due to COVID-19.

    They don't know when you bought your computer. They ship the units to the retailers and add a few months of warranty from their shipping date. This is to allow the unit to sit on the shelves/warehouse before you actually come into the store and buy it. This might be different in other countries though.
