    Hi guys,

    I'm looking to buy a UL30A. However, I have heard the battery is very loose on some models and it will wobble when you move it, unlike other laptops that lock the battery in tight. Has anyone here experienced or not experienced this problem? I would like to hear from people who do have this problem and also people who don't have this problem. When you reply, can you please state the specific model (eg. UL30A-A1/A2/X4/X5/etc).

    Thanks!

    UL30A-A2 - purchased about a month ago, does not have a loose battery. It also has the one side which has the lock mechanism, which I would say ensures that the battery could inadvertently be "disconnected" during use.
