Hi all,

I'm looking for recommendations for a light and slim laptop for the misus.

Brand: Anything but Acer
Budget: RM 2.5k-3.5k
Usage: Office work, documents, Web browsing, watching movie and videos online
Preferrence: Something portable, screen size 13-14"

Saw some models like Asus zenbook, Toshiba, lennova. I haven't seen dell's version of the ultra book yet.
Any advice on which is better? Is it better to get the 3rd generation Intel processor or is 2nd good enough?

Appreciate the advice smile.gif

The following are Dell ultrabooks:

14"
[Ultrabook]Inspiron 14z, i5-3317U + AMD HD7570M + 32GB SSD + 500GB(5400rpm)@RM2599[1.87kg], 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm) *no VGA port
[Ultrabook]Inspiron 14z, i7-3517U + AMD HD7570M + 32GB SSD + 500GB(5400rpm)@RM2899[1.87kg], 8GB, 500GB(5400rpm) *no VGA port
[Ultrabook]XPS 14, i5-3317U + Nvidia GT630M + 32GB SSD + 500GB(5400rpm) HDD + (1600x900)@RM3799[2.1kg], 4GB, 8-cell, backlit, spill resistant keyboard

Any ultrabook is good enough for your usage, its just a matter of personal preference~
Both 2nd and 3rd generation processors are good enough...

Hi smile.gif

So I've basically narrowed down my options to the two laptops below:

ASUS Zenbook Prime UX31A
DELL XPS 13 Ultrabook

The only difference I can spot is that ASUS is running on 3rd Gen Intel processor while DELL is on 2nd Gen. Anything else I'm missing?
Or is there some other models that I should consider? Also the ASUS has a backlight keyboard right?

Anyplace which has these 2 models in stock? Been around mid-valley and its seems they are out of stock doh.gif
