Jump to unread Post a Commentbut for a new laptop paying an extra 100 odd quid is worth it. outlet ones are refurbs and prone to fail. ive had some that have got faulty from the outlet.
but never the less i would still think they have decent laptops and the service is great if one does get faulty!
Rubbish, they are no different to new laptops. They are 99% cancelled or incorrect orders. I have bought probably about 20 over the last couple of years and not one has showed any sign of any use. They also have exactly the same warranty.
Also i bought 25 netbooks off there once for a school i work at - they can't all be faulty returns especially when the serial numbers follow on......as i said they are cancelled/overorders.
Dell Outlet everytime if you can find the same spec or better for cheaper.
That’s good to hear, I have a refurb on the way and was worried I was taking a bit of a gamble.

Have a XPS15 and have had zero problems with it.
Drivers is hardly an 'issue'
Yep, my one literally hasn't moved in a year. It's the 17inch model which is just massive and heavy. I'd imagine the 15inch one to also be thick and heavy. Definitely not ideal if you're moving around a lot.
Also, I should add that it is pretty loud too. The Vostro I have is almost a silent fan in comparision to this one (even at idle). But the 15inch range could be different from the XPS 17. Just something to take into account if you want a silent laptop.
My XPS15 is silent for normal usage - the only time the fan even turns on is if I use something like Photoshop or play a modern game on it (or occasionally when Chrome/Flash crashes and slows down the whole thing!).
I was surprised how chunky it was, but it's certainly not that heavy. No heavier than a normal 15" laptop anyway.

Yer can only go with my experiance. Have used it once and got an XPS 17 1st gen. Using it now too and had it over a year, and was is immaculate condition when I got it. Having researched the outlet beforehand, I discovered that 99% of people say they come looking new.
I wouldn't pay £100 more over the dell outlet, but I probably would for other refurbs I didn't know much about.
I must have bought 6 laptops from Outlet. And not one has given me any issues.

new ones are prone to fail which is why they have repaired refurb ones, having had the fault fixed they are less likely to fail than a new one
youre wrong there. most of refurbs are returns not faulty. if they were faulty they wouldnt be able to use them again. things like laptop lids or the housing maybe used with some cosmetic damage

they are different as some are damaged i have bought 3 before 1 had dints and scrapes on the housing
not a miss price there are a few around the same price but with different specs
they're not meant to be light, they're performance laptops
Ex VAT and Delivery
Hmm that's made my mind up then :)

Which will be described as such: 'Scratch and Dent'
I agree about the power and hdd lights...just damn annoying. I have had one for nearly 2 years now and not had an issue with the power adapter besides it falling out now and again if I am sitting with it on my lap.
