Well, if that reseller don't want to help you, bring your business somewhere else
Anyway, if you intend to DIY, it is very easy to access the HDD bay of Y500

Asus
A45VS-VX026H, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT645M@RM2199[2.4kg], 2GB, 500GB, W8

Dell
Inspiron 14R (Special Edition), i5-3210M + Nvidia GT640M(28nm Kepler)@RM2049[2.38kg], 4GB, 500GB(7200rpm), W7HP/W8

Lenovo
Z480, i5-3230M + Nvidia GT640M@RM1999, 4GB, 1TB(5400rpm) W8, colors: grey/red/blue
Z400, i5-3230M + Nvidia GT740M@RM2099, 4GB, 1TB, W8; 2 years warranty (not easy to do clean)

Prices are RSP, negotiable.

ummm thanks a lot..
what do u mean by "not easy to do clean?

between A45VS-VX026H vs Lenovo z400, which one is better?

Hi there
need some advise,

between ASUS VivoTab Smart and ASUS VivoTab RT, which is better?

Usage- basic ms office, web surfing, watch movies (no gaming)

thanks

"not easy to clean" mean should you ever need to clean the dust off the fan and heat sink area of the Z400, it is not easy to get access to those area Same thing if you want to increase RAM or change HDD.

On paper, the GT740M in Z400 is slightly better than the GT645M in A45VS. But personally, I don't think gaming on Z400 is a good idea

Asus Malaysia, however, has iffy reputation in terms of warranty support service.

i am back for laptop suggestion!

Good morning bro and welcome back

Hit on any "targets" during the fair (not IT one)

hmmmmm, well

thanks for ur suggestion though im still dont know which to choose

What if i up my budget from 2.2k to 2.4k,

is there any better option?

or is it better for me to spend those budgent on extending the warranty

and one more question, what about lenovo z580?

thanks

i know what you mean.
i spotted them a lot of them, but didnt hit them. but these year's razer girl is not that pretty.

for the sales target, i managed to hit a lot. but the outcome is less than what i thought.

Vivotab Smart WiFi ME400C, Z2760 + 64GB + (1366x768; touch)@RM1799[580g], 2GB, 1 year
Vivotab Smart WiFi + LTE ME400CL, Z2760 + 64GB + (1366x768; touch)@RM1799[580g], 2GB, LTE, 1 year
Vivotab RT TF600T, Nvidia Tegra 3 + 32GB + (1366x768; touch)@RM2199[0.525kg w/o dock], 2GB, WRT, 1 year

Vivotab Smart come with W8. With Intel Atom. Has larger storage. Do NOT has MS Office.

Vivotab RT come with WinRT. With Tegra 3. Has smaller storage. Has a free full copy of MS OfficeRT (come with Word, Excel, Powerpoint, OneNote) (but somehow I feel it is reflected in the price ). But canNOT install other apps that require windows desktop.

Both will satisfy your usage requirement

Next step up that is worth your while is this Lenovo:
Y400, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT650M@RM2799, 4GB, 500GB, W8, 120wPSU, swappable ODD
But it is being phased out and a more powerful spec will be introduced (with GT750M, iinm) shortly.

Depend on what type of games you play, the A45VS, 14R SE, Z480 could handle lots of game in 1366x768 resolution.

Negotiate kuat-kuat. For Dell, extend warranty to 3 years (~ RM250). Get a SSD (128G ~ RM300++)

Ideapad Z580, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT640M@RM2299, 4GB, 750GB(5400rpm), W7HB, white
Ideapad Z580, i7-3612QM + Nvidia GT640M@RM2299, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), freeDOS, white
Ideapad Z580, i7-3612QM + Nvidia GT640M@RM2499, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HB, white
No reason to go for 15" if you still get HD resolution Z480 & Z580 more or less has the same GPU, and you don't need to spend money on i7

Hi guys , i need advice please,
1. brand - any, preferred asus or acer
2. budget -2.2k to 2.9k
3. Usage - gaming, watch movies, downloading and study
4. size - 15.6"

if anyone have asus N56VZ-S3151H or S56CM to recommend for me i will appriciate your help, and is they do good in gaming and the screen quality.

thanks:)

Acer V3-571G-736b8G1T, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT730M(DDR3) + (1920x1080 IPS) @RM2899[2.6kg], 8GB, 1TB, W8
Dell New Inspiron 15R, i7-3537U + AMD HD8730M@RM2949[2.32kg], 6GB, 1TB(5400rpm), W8SL
Lenovo Ideapad Z580, i7-3612QM + Nvidia GT640M@RM2499, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HB, white

best choice is the acer v3. it comes with full HD IPS display for you to watch movies and videos in joy because IPS display has better colours, viewing angles and vibrance.

hi sifus ! so finally i bought my laptop, the asus s550, but i would like to ask , i dont think my laptop come with microsoft office...so i need to buy it ?

Yeah, most notebooks do not come with Microsoft Office (at least not the full version) when purchased... so you will have to get it separately

Hey guys,
1. brand - Any other than ASUS and ACER
2. budget - dnt exceed 3k
3. Usage - heavy programming, gaming(sometimes), movies, surfing
4. size - 15.6" with Full HD please if possible.

Is 1366x768 for 15.6" screen sucks ??

Acer V3-571G-736b8G1T, i7-3630QM + Nvidia GT730M(DDR3) + (1920x1080 IPS) @RM2899[2.6kg], 8GB, 1TB, W8
Lenovo Z500, i5-3230M + Nvidia GT645M @RM2299, 4GB, 1TB, W8; backlit, 2 years warranty (4-cell)
Lenovo Ideapad Z580, i7-3612QM + Nvidia GT640M@RM2499, 4GB, 500GB(5400rpm), W7HB, white
ASUS A55VJ-SX093H, i5-3210M + Nvidia GT635M@RM2499[2.52kg], 4GB, 750GB, W8; color: black

the only best choice for you is the Acer V3, since you prefer full HD. actually, 1366x768 on 15.6" doesnt sucks that much.
