PLS IS IT POSSIBLE TO UPGRADE CPU FROM core i3 to i5 or to i7

@OP, quite informative. While buying the machine, ask and confirm its warranty. Let the seller guarantee to replace the machine if it malfunctions during its period of warranty.

Aba Boys Refurblishing Laptops Since 1000BC

@ OP u are a funny person.
What is wrong with refurbished device?
Refurbish means item that quality control noticed had issues during manufacturing process and it was sent back to production line for examining and repairs.
Refurbished laptops are as good as new ones and better than fairly used.

Nigerians not mindind their Bizz Since 1960

what am I seeing? Is this '' R^2''or ''RR''?

I found out Just now that my bf bought me a refurbish since I insisted on a new laptop

guyANDROID1: If u have an additional R at the end of
the product number ( Example:
NB234UA#ABA is the product for new
notebook and NB234UAR#ABA is the
product number for a refurbished
notebook. If KS453AV#ABA is the
product for new notebook Then
KS453AVR#ABA will be tech product
number of refurbished notebook)..
So if you have an additional R in the
product number, it means it is a
Refurbished notebook.

Product number can be find at the back of every laptop or the battery pack

Second way to know a refurbish laptop

Type these words in Run
box "MSinfo32" without the quote
if you see addition R in the
product number then this is a
Refurbished product...

Type window key +R to show the Run box

PS: Refurbishment is the process of
maintenance or minor repair of an item, either aesthetically or mechanically.

Computers and laptops that are
refurbished usually means that it did
not initially pass quality standards of
the manufacturer. They then fix or
recertify the unit and sell it at a
discount price (Up to 30% off). Most of
them carry a 30 day store warranty and 90 days with manufacturer.

Don't mistake refurbish laptops with second-hand laptops

Second-hand means something that is used by someone before selling or giving it out.

bro, how can I open the run box? Pls

Hemanwel: Do refurbished laptops or other electronic gadgets have warranty?

PS: The kinda piece of weird information I read here on nairaland this Sunday morning that women in France do not wear pants still flaggerbasts me,ah swear!

better go learn french now, for easy accomodation and acquaintance and quick thing. Lolzzz

Now this is the kind of things that should make frontpage.. Not the kind of words to tell a lady to win her over..

Thanks for the info

Faraidi: are you sure refurbished one is really the best?

Is the best bro coz it also comes with warranty as stated in the topic.

But I feared Nigerian gadget seller won't tell you that. They'll even deny it.

The op is not entirely correct.


He is referring to manufacturer refurbished laptops. If I buy a laptop today in the US or UK, and it develops a fault and is replaced by the manufacturer, the manufacturer will fix the faulty laptop and sell as refurb. It is not laptops that failed quality testing, as you can still find those before shipping.

All big name manufactures have outlet sites where you can buy refurbs. Refurbs typically sell at a fraction of the price of new models. Eg a Dell precision m6700 can sell for 5000 dollars new, but a refurb will sell for 2000 dollars

I think what the op is driving at is the fact that dubious Nigerians will buy refurbs, remove stickers and sell at the price of brand new.

On eBay, honest dealers always indicate when a laptop is refurb.

Note that manufacturer refurb is not the same as repairs by some local repair shop (which like naija mechanics, usually adds 3 problems for every one solved.

Faraidi: bro, how can I open the run box? Pls

Hold down the window key and press R at same time(I.e hold down the window Logo and press R)

OR

Search run from your start buttom if you're using Vista/window7/8

kwaifa252: PLS CAN I UPGRADE MY LAPTOP FROM
i3 TO i7 WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM

Why do you want to do that, upgrading it means; you'll have to upgrade some hardware part of the system coz the intel itself is an hardware.

Morealso, laptops depends on the processor speed and RAM for it to perform to your expectation.

Dreyl: Thanks for the info

Welcome bro *thumbsup*

I love how folks think refurbishment is a Naija thing...Anywho, over here you can get refurnished laptops from stores. In fact, I got my refurbished laptop from Dixons complete with warranty. The damn thing lasted longer than the brand new laptop I got my brother. It's still alive now, despite the fact I haven't done any maintenance on it.

I hope you don't have comprehension prob Where did I mention that refurbish laptop is bad huh?

Or you didn't read at all before commenting.

kwaifa252: PLS IS IT POSSIBLE TO UPGRADE CPU FROM core i3 to i5 or to i7

Yes its possible, but its more complex and expensive than you think. The price of some of these powerful processors can buy a new or sometimes a fairly used laptop(some are still cheap though)
you also need to find ur laptop socket/chipset compatibility with the processor u want to use

Guys, I bought a laptop last month.... Just checked and saw that the product number has no 'R' but the serial number ends with an 'R'

Any need for me to be worried?

Ok

Nice one
