    Hi guys for some reason, there are only a few threads and posts about g53jw compared the g73jw.. This may be due to
    1. Very few users have g53 which i seriously doubt since it took about 45 days for me to ship from the reseller.
    2. G53 has very few problems and all the users are completely satisfied and happy..
    3. G53 is masked by the g73..
    4. G53 users are just too busy to post threads..
    Which one you think is the right reason for the low number of threads?

    They all post in the owners forum, and the problems they're having are the same as the JH, so they don't bring it up again, they just post in the JH threads.

    I could say it's #2 & #4. Satisfied ,happy and busy. :D . Only problem I saw is the power plug breaking (which Haven't encountered yet) other than that everything seems fine with the G53jw.

    I follow these forums alot (when I can) and the only issue I've ever seen with the G53 is a tiny portion of users having power plug issues.

    It's also important to note that the G53 seems problem-free in the missing keystroke and touchpad department (unlike the G73 where it's like a black plague). I'd recommend the G53 to anyone (vice versa for the G73).

    G53 was my favourite laptop ever. Problem-free out of the box.
