hello, joining in

was planning to buy the 5460 @ RM2199 but now looking at the 5470 Touch @ RM2249.

reading up the thread, looks like the 5470 could be a better buy due to better wifi and definitely touch screen capability. afterall just RM50 bucks difference. never had a touch screen laptop before (i currently own an inspiron 14R which is dying on me)... any feedback on having a touch screen? don't think the shops are carrying any demo units yet?

The 5460 sept offer looks okay too, with free optical drive (ends 26 Sept). So I guess i have to make up my mind quick! does the SSD really make a difference? am only using the laptop to do casual surfing and play videos.

you're right. was reviewing the specs too fast online. touchscreen is the one with i3 @ RM2149.

point 3 is challenging. so its back to touch screen vs faster processing..
but then again, its 4th generation intel, compared to 3rd gen for the 5460. pening-nya..

too bad no demo unit yet.... if can touch and feel the touch screen, at least will see which one is more loved

Guys, i'm still hovering around for a laptop. previously i was looking at vostro 4560, then 4570.

Then recently found samsung ativ book 9 lite @ RM1999. altho it comes with amd quad processor, it also includes 128 ssd. batt life is also supposedly better at 4-4.5 hours. weight 1.44kg. startup 8 sec, snooze wakeup 2 sec.

means can rival 5470/5460 right? price is even cheaper.

got it. previously was confused as i couldn't differentiate between sarcasm and fact from your message haha. batt power samsung claims 8 hours. but reviews tip it at 4 - 4.5 hours. still ok lah

haha yes, mistaken they have the book 9 plus, but double the price. anyway it looks like its a trend. brands rolling out new ultrabooks. guess ill just wait around for more options. the hp envy spectre has a 128gb ssd... retailing around 2899. no longer selling on hp online store though.

cool

yeah, anyone? i'm keen to know too. especially on its wifi capability .... since 5460's wifi sucks

i went to feel test the samsung activ 9 lite demo unit yesterday at the shop. i really like the touch screen but its much heavier than the non-touch version. i think at rm1999 the non touch is much cheaper than the 5460/5470. it felt responsive with the 128gb ssd and the screen colour quite nice too.

hi devour, would you have a better deal to offer buyers than the current online deals for dell 5470?

5470 review please

appreciate your feedback shawnme. do test the Wifi capability and let us know how that stands out
thanks man
