New Laptop

Weren't some of these issues embedded into the bios somehow? If this were true, then a fresh install of Windows would not work. If the op or anyone wants a lenovo, sd will show you how you can get 33-38%off right now. I'm contemplating getting a thinkpad of some sort, just wish...

Dell XPPS15 L502X heat and noise issues.

I have the previous version to you (L501x) mine has been running way hotter than it used to. I have blown it out, replaced any thermal paste, etc. It hasn't helped. Nature of the beast i suppose. I honestly wouldn't waste the money to downgrade the cpu. Best upgrade ive done that helped...

Dell XPS 13 2015, 1440p or 1080p panel?

I've read that there is up to a 3-4 hour difference. If battery life is critical to you, id go with the 1080p. Also depending on your budget, the new skylake versions will be available soon i believe. You need to decide what is most important to you and go from there. I personally want...

Why don't all manufacturers just make pentaband phones?

Looks like apple has another company to sue. Looks exactly like an iphone to me but made in china. Everyone has their opinion, but I do not see this being any better than any other phone. Just buy it if you like it so much

Straight talk is basically $50/mo ea after taxes. Tmobile would be cheaper. Maybe check into adding them to att as suggested by others

tmobile got the Note 2 this morning

I guess it depends on location. I went to 2 stores a week ago and they both said they would sell to me off contract. I just decided for my needs it would be better in the end to do the value plan contract. If need be I will just pay the etf's. I didn't want to hassle the work arounds for the...

Disappointed with Iphone 4S

The only lag that bugs me on android phones is when you rotate. Android is way slower than apple. I can tell you though that my iPhone 4 has many bugs especially with the newer os's. lag, freezing, turtle mode, etc. I'm personally going to try the note 2 for my first android based phone. Best...

iPhone 5 or Samsung Galaxy S III?

The ip5 is supposedly the fastest phone on the market right now but you do not really gain much over the 4s if you've had experience with one. Since you are leaning towards a bigger screen, sgs3 or razr hd line would be good choices for you. As I mentioned back on pg 1; if you really want real...

Thanks. I'm going to try the t mobile $30 plan for a month to see how service works for me here. I want to compare to my current att. The bad thing is I'm stuck with my iphone4 which is not capable of full speeds anyway. If I do not go Verizon, I will do t mobile or straight talk for a while...

I think tmobile a new pricing strategy is rediculous. $250down and $20 for 20 mos= full price of $650 and you still have to sign a 2yr contract. They told me they would give me $100 rebate for porting my number over from my AT&T account. They also told me I could pay $650 to buy the phone off...

PagePlus ups the data allotment on TnT1200 & UT&T Plans, lowers overage rate.

I find it hard to believe Verizon would allow prepaid to offer lte for half the cost. There would have to be some stipulations so the prepaid plans would not be as good. I would love to get lte on prepaid for half cost, just don't see it happening for quite some time.

Samsung announcement Oct. 11. - Galaxy S III mini

Because they wanted a sm mid level phone for the $99 market. Would have been better to make a true mini s3 with same specs though. I'm sure it will still sell. Most people don't even care what's inside. They just want phones that appeal to them

Note 2 drop test

I think they should do real life drops. Example, if you dropped your phone; you would most likely try to save it. This would have a different effect than what they did. I also think they should have done a good 3 drops from each height as we all know the phone will always drop differently. I...
