1. Brand - Any
2. Budget - 2-3k
3. Specs - I need it for designing purposes and gaming. Must not be laggy.
4. Size - 15".

Looking for a stylish design labtop. Best if it's light enough for me to carry around cause i will be carrying it around almost 24/7 when i'm out.

Thinking of Macbook Pro but its somehow pricey seeing the specs is not really good.

15 inch = heavy. 3kg, i dno if its heavy for you.

wat is light enough? 14 inch is 2.4kg 13 inch is 1.8kg.

unless u r willing to pay more, etc. MBP, HP envy 15, vaio Z, adamo. which are shooting away from your budget.

so if  u want light, then u need to sacrifice screensize.

designing purpose and gaming, how to define? mind sharing the games and software you are using? they can vary alot.

stylish = vaio or mbp? only low spec vaios at rm3k price tag...which will not suffice ur usage.

Hmm, it better be 14 or 15" cause i don't want the sreen to be too small. My defination of light is it should be portable enough because alot of my friends bought their labtop and just leave it at home because it's too heavy to carry around. That would be no point of getting a labtop for me since i already have a good desktop.

Only medium gaming not professional or heavy gaming. Softwares like photoshop, illustrator and stuff. The max i can afford is MBP 13-inch, 2.4GHz. I don't really fancy VAIO :/.

Thanks for your recommendation i will research more. wink.gif

What do you guys think about Acer 4820TG?

Will Dell Dell Studio XPS 16 suit me? What does full HD means? meaning everything in the screen will be HD? Even if i play a non HD video?

Weight - 4820TG
Price - 4820TG
Gaming Performance - 4820TG, since SXPS 16 has higher resolution, lower performance and HD5730 is just OC'ed HD5650, 4820TG can achieve the same with a bit of OC...
Battery Life - 4820TG
Multimedia usage - SXPS 16
Warranty - Dell got onsite...

meaning 4820 have more winning factors? actually i'm not really using it for heavy gaming just minor gaming but more of the time i will do photo editing, movies, and surfing.

thinking dell sxps would be good cause it comes with HD. hmm.gif
