  5. Jack Phillips on March 16, 2021 at 12:29 am

    How many dead pixels on the screen is acceptable for a brand new laptop? Like 0 right? or is there a range that manufacturers always have?



  6. Ritesh Rai on March 16, 2021 at 12:31 am

    Perfect for checking your new laptops😍😍

    Hey Josh, I am experiencing a strange thing on my new Acer Helios 300 (2020 version).

    1. When I plug in the AC adapter, I feel slight vibrations when I rub my finger on the laptop deck (which is made of aluminum). This happens only when I have it plugged, not on battery. It feels like I am rubbing my finger on a rubber. It’s hard to describe. But I only experience it while rubbing on touching.
    2. When I plug in my headphones and not play any audio, I hear this faint high-pitched sound which stops at times with or without a light click and then starts again. This doesn’t happen when I play an audio. The sound is very slight but quite uncomfortable.

    The thing is I am still eligible for a replacement but the replacement is very cumbersome as it can take more than a month here. Plus, I am eligible for only one replacement, so if I run into problems in the next unit, I would have only Acer’s customer service at my disposal. Another thing is that this unit is perfect otherwise (no screen bleed at all, hard to believe, right?)
    Can you help me?

    I saved this video. I’m going to be guiding folks in a public school regarding distance learning … this video will be a link for new laptop users. 🙂

    Thanks a lot Josh,
    I got my razer blade 15 yesterday and I was wondering how can I test it the best. Because I hear that having problems is common with razer laptops. That will help me to find out if my laptop is good or not. 🌹🌺🌷

  44. Helen Melon on March 16, 2021 at 1:07 am

    don’t test the micro sd card slot on a XPS 13, it will get stuck and you’ll have to open the back of the laptop to get it out 😩



  45. Sankarsh A.M on March 16, 2021 at 1:10 am

    Hi I have the Legion 5 15ARH05 (AMD Ryzen 7 and RTX 2060) but when I go to the task manager performance I can only see 1 GPU. Is that normal?
