the ASUS will be a better deal but it is quite heavy, it is weighted 2kg. so IMO, the HP envy 4 will be a better deal. but why dont you choose lenovo? lenovo has international warranty, especially the Z400.

lenovo? hmm...i was looking at s400, but i read that alot ppl facing problem with those hardware...hmmm..dare not take the risk...

hp envy, only thing dont have backlit keyboard...haha...well minor issue..

Edit
what do you think on
toshiba u940 vs hp envy 1204tx?

dell will has plainer design but good warranty service, good specs and yet lightweight.
toshiba u940 has cooler look with backlit keyboard.
hp envy 1204 has the best graphics card for gaming performance and the design is better than dell.

thanks alot raymond bro! this help alot. indeed what you said are right!

well go have a look on these 3 and make the decision..

envy 4 is considered an ultrabook, due to its lightweight specs.
hmm..
i thought because it do not have SSD, so it is not consider ultrabook.

that is a false point. lets say my lenovo y400 is fitted with SSD, then it is an ultrabook? no.

ultrabook's concept is light, thin and power efficient. any laptops with weight less than 2kg. however, lenovo Z400 is not an ultrabook. the dell vostro 5460 isnt too.
*
okay..i read somewhere saying on weight,dimension and specs only can classified as ultrabook.

anyway 1204tx vs 1238tx.
would we feel the different?
32gb mSSD and
2gb vs 4gb ram.
