No problem, good hunting man

But do take note that despite being a normal processor, the one in the V131 is relatively older (Sandy Bridge), but still better than the newer Ivy Bridge ULV processors

This one is the best for gaming, and everything else
15.6"

If your budget is RM3.5k, then the G55 is out of your budget already
The G51Jx is an old model...

If portability is not a problem, then the Y580 would be the best pick.
Use your remaining budget to extend warranty, and upgrade the RAM and HDD

Recommend me laptop

1. Any
2. RM 1200
3. Light usage
4. 13" to 15" screen size..

how is the durability for Lenovo so far?
their quality good enough compare with other?

Closest:
13"
Lenovo [Ultrabook]S300, Pentium 997 + Intel HD3000 @RM1199[1.8kg], 2GB,500GB(5400rpm), freeDOS; W7HB@RM1399, no ODD, 1 yr warranty


14"
Dell
Inspiron 14, B820 + Intel HD@RM999[2.1kg], 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Ubuntu Linux 11.10; W7HB@RM1159
Inspiron 14, B980 + Intel HD@RM1199[2.1kg], 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Ubuntu Linux 11.10; W7HB@RM1359

Durability cannot be measured unfortuntely
it all depends on a little bit of luck and also on how well you take care of your laptop
Built and craftsmanship-wise, the Y580 should be good

Lenovo S300 is nice, but lack of Optical Disk Drive[ODD] is put me off...


hmm, no other choice, Dell Inspiron 14 then,,

There are not a lot of options for that budget range unfortunately

hi, im looking for the best laptop with the price around rm1500. mainly use for office, surfing and watching movies. no heavy games. it's for my sister use..

tq =)

Assuming you would want a 14" notebook:
14:
Acer V5-431-987B2G50s/b/u, B987 + Intel HD@RM1499[2.1kg], 2GB, 500GB, W7HP

Dell Inspiron 14, i3-3110M + Intel HD4000@RM1299[2.1kg], 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), Ubuntu Linux 11.10; W7HB@RM1459

HP Pavilion G4-2110TU, i3-3110M + Intel HD4000@RM1599, 2GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HP

Lenovo G470, B960 + Intel HD3000@RM1499, 2GB, 500GB, W7HP

Toshiba Satellite C800-1006, B970 + Intel HD3000@RM1599[2.12kg], 2GB, 500GB, W7HP

Spec-wise, the Dell and the HP are the top picks

alrigth. thanks. will look into it..

Based on the specification of the software mentioned, ultrabook nowadays are capable to fulfill your need.
Why not try the Samsung Series 5 Ultra 13" (RM2699) or 14" (RM2999)

I don't think huieye was looking for a notebook just "capable" of running Photoshop and Lightroom. Even a netbook can do that.

Please recommend properly and unbiasedly, you seemed more like a seller with your way of recommending all Samsung notebooks

If you don't mind a FreeDOS laptop, this one would be the best
15.6"

Otherwise,

Powerful 17.3" notebooks are mostly more than RM5k unfortunately

You will be able to get much better specs if you opt for a 15.6" though, without losing too much viewing space with its FullHD screen
15.6"
