Someone who bought a 1530 NEW, plz...

Can someone that bought a NEW 1530 please post a screenshot of their order page?

i want to see if there is anything on there about the xps case they include...

i bought from the outlet, and dont see anything about it on my order, but was hoping itd be included...

thanks in advance...

 

I didn't see anything about the case. I'm sure it will come with it, though. Only a remote possibility the previous owner used it to bury his dog, and thus didn't return it with the notebook.

What discount codes did you use for the xps 1530?

 

I bought mine new and a case did come with it though it's not listed on the specs. It's a nice black and silver colored thick canvas material. It fits nicely even with the extended battery.

 

Same for me^^^ no need for me to repeat.

 

no case included.

and its going back. the samsung screen looks terrible with IE open. anything with a white background has a "texture" look to it.

oh well.

 

Now you know what a grainy screen looks like

Probably why it was in the outlet in the first place.

 

probably.

the screen just looks like it adds a texture to everything, really yucky looking.

still gonna play with the machine and see if i want a 1530 now. may go for a new MBP when they release the new ones.

 

Yea, after directly comparing the LG and samsung side by side, I think a better term to describe the screen is actually dirty, not grainy. Thats just my opinion though. Plus if you call Dell complaining of a "dirty" screen, they will laugh and tell you to send it into a service depot for 7-10 business days so they can manually wipe your screen with a cloth.

 

They will send you a new screen if you complain. I actually have one on the way for my LAST m1530...the refurb I bought had an LG

So if you complain that your screen does not look right and that it is grainy they will send you a new one.

 

The warranty states the replacement part might be new or used so you getting the screen you want is 50/50 but with the Samsung more numerous it's more like 40/60.
