What are my options? $3k SGD laptop now a metal brick after 20 months
Hi everyone,
I am, I admit, quite angry. I bought a late 2018 model Razer Blade Advance 15 in the beginning of 2019. I live in Singapore, and therefore no extended warranty, in addition to the fact i bought it on Amazon US.
I loved my laptop. It worked very well, it looks great, was everything I expected it to be.
Until, early this year, the front of the laptop swelled. Battery bloat! Great.
I contacted support, my laptop was under warranty, I walked it into the service centre here in Singapore and I got it back a week later. Fine and dandy, laptop turned on, it worked.
Now, for most of this year I haven't been using my laptop. Why? Due to COVID, i work from home, and at home I have a desktop. I turned my laptop on 2-3 times after I got it back, but basically left it alone in the drawer in my desk for about 5 months.
I need some files. I take my laptop out, it does not switch on. Huh, ok, so, hard power cycle, LED light flickers. No joy.
I take in my laptop the 2nd of Novembe
