Yeah, that one definitely can consider now that your budget is higher
Try to look for the non-touch version since its cheaper ya

Would be nice to list out the specs before asking lol, we cannot memorize notebook codes
Sony Vaio SVF14219SGW, i5-3337U + Nvidia GT740M + (1366x768;touch)@RM2699[2.4kg], 4GB, 750GB, W8SL; colors: white/black/pink

After trying one out (the i3 + touch variant) I think the touch version is not worth it
Better save the money and get the non-touch version which is RM200 cheaper

14"
Vaio SVF14218SGW, i5-3337U + Nvidia GT740M@RM2399[2.4kg], 4GB, 500GB, W8SL; colors: white/black


Some photos of the pink Vaio (i3 variant)

Specs are pretty good for the price, but the touchpad is horrible, so be prepared to use a mouse.
And do check the keyboard properly prior to purchase

Yeah, noticed the updates on the Vostro 5470 and Inspiron 11 yesterday thanks for sharing though

Newer Inspiron lines are coming too, they might be available by the time you come back

Definitely an iPad, its a bit small, but definitely easy to learn

Androids and Windows are very tough for old people. Hell, even I have problems using W8 with touchscreen

Ouh, also, I dont see any Inspiron 14 with 3rd Gen Intel processor anymore. Was browsing again and again to make sure, and I definitely sure they remove it .

which ipad?

p/s: INB4, ain't an apple-fag.

Yeah, all replaced by Haswell ones already

It doesn't really matter to be honest haha, just get the one your budget allows?

but im confused with the graphic, some says its intel and some says its nvidia

No

its switchable

+1, it has Nvidia Optimus to switch in between the iGPU and dGPU depending on need (performance or battery saving)

Thanks for the input

is this the one ?

Yup~ That one is without touchscreen

but when i look at lenovo official website it says that its using intel graphic 4000

Aiyo, trust us la bro When you buy, just make sure you check the specs properly (though you won't get it wrong also apart from the Touchscreen/non-touchscreen, since the specs are fixed already lol
You are not the 1st one we recommended this notebook lol, and definitely not the last

it isnt that i didnt trust, just the way the write the specs make me confuse

btw now its only lenovo z500 vs asus a550cc

Manufacturer websites are known to be slow in updates, and inaccurate, apart from those which sells online

Definitely the Z500 since it runs on a Mobile processor
You might want to upgrade the RAM right away at the shop/COD since its not easy to upgrade yourself.
Can contact devour, he is very experienced with upgrading already iinm haha

they are pretty much the same except

Lenovo has intel i5-3230M , ASUS has intel i5-3337U
Lenovo has Nvidia GeForce GT740M 2gb, ASUS has Nvidia GeForce GT720M

Yeah I am aware of the specs
