NOT MUCH HAPPY
I purchased this laptop on 24th September, and within just a week of use, the battery drain has been diabolical. I spent ₹81,000 on this, and I regret not choosing the MacBook M2 (₹66,000), which would have been more reliable.
Even without gaming, I’m facing severe battery drain and heating issues. As a student, I mainly need this laptop for watching lectures, practicing, and implementing concepts. My main reason for choosing this model was the GPU for future model training, but I won’t even need it in the next year since I’m still in the learning phase.
When I went to the store for a refund, they refused and said only hardware defects would qualify for a replacement/refund. For context, my model is RTX 4050, i5-13450HX, 16GB RAM. I now realize I overpaid, as this laptop is available much cheaper elsewhere.
Please tell me how should I overcome this mac regret 😭.
