1. Preferred Brand - any brand except acer( bad material feel) and asus (bad warranty service)
2. Budget - 2.5-3k
3. Usage - light gaming ( some nfs most wanted ) file reading (law student)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size - 14 if possible fhd screen for the max working space. if possible 15 might be ok if the weight is not too heavy and most of all must be portable not too bulky

I remember you want FHD, and portable, and light.
Well, Y400 is none of the above laugh.gif

But it is a very capable entry level gaming laptop.

(The price you get for Sony seems to be based of RM2299? I listed down the cheapest SVE1512 model in Sony Malaysia website. Maybe Courts is carrying some special specs)

Both should be good enough for your sis usage.
Price is pretty good deal smile.gif
Acer and Sony has OK warranty support in Malaysia.
The Sony is more heavy. Since both only has HD screen, you have the same screen real estate.
If you want good battery performance, you may want to look at models with Intel ULV CPU (i3/5/7-3xxxU).

~ 2.5kg ++
Also, iinm, Nvidia Optimus is not working properly (?), so battery performance suffer.
Check with owners here to confirm:
