Hi friends today I am discussing about dell XPS 15 L502X laptop. I purchased an XPS l502x Direct Base on 27th May and was delivered in the second week of June 2011
Towards the end of the 4th Month ie Oct, I had few incidents of overheating(get pop ups informing the temp is 99.0 deg in core 1 / 2), in the 5th month I had severe overheating issues(get pop ups informing the temp is 99.0 deg in core 1, 2, 3 & 4), for which I kept informing Dell about the same and they got the heat sink replaced this was in the first week of dec even to date I get occasional overheating issues. The day they replaced the heat sink my daughter board went kaput and that took a week to get the same replaced.
In the first 4 months of usage I had a battery life of 7 hrs+, Post which it is now about 3 hours.
Please do let me know if this is normal?
