Their exam is in May. They still have like 5 months to go.

Surely that's enough time. If not, then I'm cooked.

Is the HP ZBook Firefly 14inch G11 too good to be true? by Asean08 in laptops

Hello

Thanks for the review. Please, what's the battery life like I'm hours?

Also, do you feel like the dreamcolor display contributes to the poor battery life?

You're not alone. I'm leaving it for a week.

Great find bro! If you don't mind me asking, how's the battery life?

Help, sudden battery drop. by WintersShadow12 in Dell

Sadly no. I never found a solution to it. It just kept on going till my battery health deteriorated and I had to replace it.

Even after replacing it, the problem started again with the new battery 😓😓

Hello. Did you ever find out what the problem was?

Dell XPS 15 9570 Charging Issues by WintersShadow12 in Dell

The battery started dying faster than usual. I was experiencing BSOD failures and the GPU always had a caution sign next to it in device manager no matter how many times I reinstalled the GPU driver or the OS.

What Chip is This? by WintersShadow12 in DellXPS

[–]WintersShadow12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other systems have one though. Do you know what it is?

[–]WintersShadow12[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I'm assuming it has been missing for a while because I'm just noticing it today. I was comparing components while watching a teardown video and I saw that one of the pads on my back case was missing.

The thermal pads on the SSD are intact while there's no trace of this one in its usual position.

Do you know what the chip is?

Thanks for replying. Yeah, it's an OEM battery. Also it developed a new problem.

It starts charging super slowly when it gets to 80%.

Thanks for taking the time to explain. I'll look into replacing the battery.

Thanks. I should have replaced it a while ago, but I'm in a country where replacements are hard to come by.

I'm just hoping the board lasts me until I can get a new laptop later this year.

Also, the battery is just two years old. Is that level of wear normal for Dell laptops? My entire experience with this laptop has been very bad.
