Well I’ve had a look around and these laptops seems to be very strong and they have good benchmarks, yet I don’t know if I should buy one or not becuz I’ve have some question about it and until they’re cleared, I think I wouldn’t be getting one.
1. I’m currently living in Kuwait, and becuz Dell don’t offer them here, a friend of mine will buy it for me from the US, and I’m afraid that cuz of voltage difference from place to place, it might ruin the motherboard or the power supply of the laptop
2. Is there anyway to change the power adapter to suit the power sockets here ? (the power sockets are like the ones in UK, 3 way and big and bulky)
3. I’ve heard that after two years or such with using a dell laptop, you get an error saying "AC adapter couldn’t be determined" or something similar, and the battery won’t charge anymore, and in the end your motherboard will be fried, has anyone got this problem before ?
4. Will the warranty work here ? (like if something happens to my laptop, can I go to the dell workshop here and repair it for free ?)

1 and 2. The laptop comes with the adapter to change the voltage to match your local area power supply. All you need is the power plug adapter to fit into the power socket.
3. That’s actually the battery problem, all batteries die. There is no exception to it.
4. If there is a workshop, then yes. But you will need original owner information to prove it’s genuine and it belongs to you now.
