Hi, need a recommendation on ultrabooks, which is better? Dell or Asus?

Looking for performance, reliability, portability and worldwide warranty, because might want to further study oversea.

I'm not gonna use it for gaming, just words and surfing. Backlit keyboard is a must

My budget is below rm4k. Thanks!

you could try pm this seller... to check if he have Y580FHD... Y580 & Y480 comes with 2 years international warranty... but the seller do sell upgrade to 3 years ONSITE warranty (only applicable in Malaysia but outside Malaysia will be normal warranty which you need to send in your unit to the service center)

I bought from the seller Y480 + upgrade 3 years onsite warranty..

hey everybody..few months ago i asked for suggestions and you all said that the dell inspiron 14r would be great.
I bought it from lowyat plaza on 11th of june.
Now im thinking of giving my laptop away to my sister, not that it isnt good, but she needs one. so i thought i would probably buy a new one
so uh
1.preferred brand: any
2.budget: under or around 2500 RM
3.usage: web browsing, photo/video editing, audio production,little to no gaming
4. screen size: 13-15
5.now, i do require portability. i will be moving around with the laptop. so an ultrabook-ish kinda profile is better for me and also i do need daily battery life for over a minimum of 6 hours of web browsing with wifi. need a good keyboard, and a good /touch/click pad
looking for a more rigid kind of a laptop like uh, say carbon fiber or maybe like a metal unibody chassis.

sidenote: i like almost everything about my current inspiron 14r. except for the battery life. in terms of build quality, its ok.
it produces MASSIVE amount of heat while gaming so i have to keep over a plain surface. touch pad is nice. so is the keyboard. display is ok. have 8 gigs of ram so quite fast but not when booting.takes over a minute for booting

had the new vaio t, vaio s, xps 14 and few others in mind, turns out they are either too expensive or doesnt that good of a battery life or not enough horsepower.
thanks in advance guys..sorry for the long post!

Dell would be better imho because of the longer warranty period (assuming you extend to 3 years) nod.gif
The on-site warranty which is available in most countries would come in handy as well nod.gif

If you really wanna buy the laptop here, then these would be good:
13"
Dell [Ultrabook] XPS13, i5-2467M + Intel HD3000 + 128GB SSD@RM3499[1.36kg], 4GB, external optical drive

14"
Dell [Ultrabook]XPS 14, i5-3317U + Nvidia GT630M + 32GB SSD + 500GB(5400rpm) HDD + (1600x900)@RM3799[2.1kg], 4GB, 8-cell, backlit, spill resistant keyboard

*Dell's warranty coverage is only international if you extend the warranty to 3 years ya
*Some coupons you can use:

Otherwise, these:
Asus [Ultrabook] UX31A-R4005V, i5-3317U + Intel HD4000 + 128GB SSD + (1920 x 1080)@RM3499[1.3kg], 4GB, W7HP, 2 years international warranty
You can try to upgrade to 3 years international warranty as well if you want, but it'll be expensive, and its not on-site
*And do take note that there were many complaints that the current batch of UX31 suffers from monitor blacklight bleeding, so be sure to check 1st if you are buying this one nod.gif

You won't get any carbon fibre for RM2.5k man laugh.gif
You need at least RM3.4k for that one

Anyway, can consider these instead:
14"
Dell [Ultrabook]Inspiron 14z, i5-3317U + AMD HD7570M + 32GB SSD + 500GB(5400rpm)@RM2599[1.87kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm) *no VGA port
HP [Ultrabook] Envy4-1043TX/1053TX, i5-3317U + AMD HD7670M + [32GB mSATA + 500GB(5400rpm)]@RM2599[Beats][1.75kg], 4GB, W7HP
Lenovo [Ultrabook]U410, i5-3317U + Nvidia G610M + 32GBSSD + 320GB(5400rpm)@RM2599,W7HP, colors: grey/pink, 2 years international warranty

*All are capable of light-medium gaming icon_rolleyes.gif

Can consider these:
14"
Asus A43Sd- VX419V/420V/421V/422V, i5-2450M + Nvidia GT610M@RM1899[2.4kg], W7HP, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), colors: black/blue/red/white, 2 years international warranty

Dell Inspiron 14 (N4050), i3-2350M + Intel HD3000@RM1799[2.2kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm)

HP Pavilion G4-2110TU, i3-3110M + Intel HD4000@RM1799, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HP

Toshiba Satellite L840-1001, i3-2350M + Intel HD3000@RM1649[2.12kg], 2GB, 640GB, W7HP

You get to choose from a variety of colors for Asus + 2 years international warranty
The Dell shines most in terms of after sales service (if covered)
The HP boasts its relatively newer Ivy Bridge processor and good speakers
The Toshiba offers a better screen but has the weakest performance (along with the Inspiron 14) among all the options mentioned (however you're not going to notice the performance differences for your usage tongue.gif)

I would recommend getting either the Inspiron 14 + 3 years warranty extension; or the Toshiba L840 + 3 years warranty extension icon_rolleyes.gif
