Dell AX-3600GSL Adamo XPS 13.4-Inch Laptop Review
Dell AX-3600GSL Adamo XPS 13.4-Inch Laptop Review from Kevin Horton. Nice and amazingly thin and light – but the battery?, Acquired this notebook from the Microsoft Store in Scottsdale, AZ and was very happy with the setup and initial performance. Didn’t have success, tho, with an external USB DVD player purchased with it. Ended up ordering a (expensive!) DVD/Blu-Ray player for the Adamo direct from Dell and it works great…just one USB port required. Also purchased an extended life battery through Dell….which brings me to the one big complaint I have with this machine. So I now have two batteries to use with this notebook, but it is NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to swap the battery out. Seems simple…there’s a typical slider on the bottom to supposedly release the battery, but it won’t come out… I see that the design of the case is such that the battery doesn’t slide off towards the back of the machine, but needs to pop outward, but I still can’t get it. I ended up handing it to my son and asked him to give it a try….he was FINALLY successful, but I have no idea how. The larger battery is now installed, but it won’t seem to budge when trying to remove. I have found several references on the ‘net that the battery is “difficult to remove” on this system, but nobody offers any helpful hints as to HOW to remove the darn battery. Does anyone that has one of these Adamo XPS machines have any advice or little trick on how to get the battery changed? Supposedly one of the features is that you can hot-swap the battery while it’s in sleep mode and not miss a beat — as long as you do it within 90 seconds. If it takes 10 minutes to struggle with the battery to get it removed, I guess that feature isn’t worth much. Again…love the system, but can anyone help with the battery removal issue?
