Hello all, I want to ask for some recommendations for my next laptop. Expecting my current acer will die by new year.

1. Brand: leaning a bit more towards dell, lenovo and asus, but any reliable laptop will do.

2. Budget: rm1.5-2.5k. Preferably below rm3k including upgrades, antivirus, windows, warranty etc.

3. Usage:
-editing and drawing: photoshop, illustrator, gimp, mischief, paint tool sai
-games: mostly casual games like pvz, a few heavier games like nevermind
-downloading and watching movies

4. Screen size: 12"-15.6"

5. Extra:
- will be using tablet for editing work
- prefer the laptop to be as light and portable as possible. I already have ext dvd reader/writer, laptop with no dvd reader is okay with me
- longer batter life. I asked around and some say that 4 hrs is the max for laptop with heavy performance. Budget is negotiable for longer battery life plus good graphic card
- I guess for heavy editing work, i'll need 4-8gb ram?

That's all, I guess. Thanks in advance.
*
heavy editing work need quad core processor.. include upgrades, windows and antivirus.. im not sure if u get that 2.5k max.. but of course.. Dell 7447 is suitable with your needs.. 14".. regarding for battery life.. i will go for intel and nvdia specs.. i'm not sure with amd.. but personally, i'm a bit disappointed with amd.. compatibility of games for time being favor to nvdia

1. Preferred Brand
Dell, others are OK. Just no Acer, very bad experience with them.

2. Budget
3k - 3.5k

3. Usage
Microsoft Office, AutoCAD, movies, light gaming (if possible witcher 3 at low spec  tongue.gif ), general desktop replacement

4. Preferred laptop/screen size
15", 14" can also

The thing is, my previous was the Dell Inspiron 15R SE. It still works great but now finding potential replacement.
I not really follow what's new in computer hardware. So if can, recommend one that match or better the specs.

(Currently my Dell has 3rd gen i7 core, 8GB DDR3, full HD screen, mSATA thingy)

can consider this Asus GL552JX-DM174H 15.6” FHD , i7-4720 , 4GB , 1TB , GTX950 2GB , W8.1 : RM3074/-
MSI GP60 848MY MYR3,499 15” FHD i7-4720, 4GB, 1TB , GTX950 2GB ,WIN 8.1 ** i'm not sure which series need to avoid.. forgot... GE60 or GP60... sweat.gif due to overheat issue

other than dell Inspiron 7447 14” , i7-4710 , 8GB , 1TB , GTX850M 4GB , W8.1 : RM3240 thumbup.gif

Thanks. Another sifu also suggested that model, or vostro 5480. Both with 4gb ram for my budget. If I add the ram to 8gb will it void the warranty?

erm... no.. it wount... but need clarification from myway1985 for warranty sticker.. how it works if self upgrade ram or ask technician upgrade. but if technician upgrade... warranty no void..

pick dell for good onsite warranty, Zenbook for premium build quality(not suitable for games). if can wait.. can purchase during raya discount.. might be cheaper nod.gif

Hmm, looking for a new laptop since my ancient Acer Aspire LCD screen died after 6 years, RIP. Will probably buy next month.

1. Preferred Brand: Prioritize reliability... can last ~5 years.
2. Budget: 2000, upwards to 2200 max
3. Usage: Work (priority), some gaming (mostly Sid Meier games, some Visual Novels, maybe some indie games like Transistor, etc, nothing huge like GTAV, etc)
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14 inches and higher

My old laptop was an i3 with Intel Integrated HD 2000, so probably ANYTHING will be a huge upgrade... but hey, I managed to play Borderlands 2 with it ^^;;

My friend recommended me ASUS A555LJ... WX or XX, he said; is that good? Any other recommendations? biggrin.gif
*
Asus A455LJ (Red, White, Yellow, Black) 14” , i5-5200U , 4GB , 1TB , GT920M 2GB , W8.1 yeah, why not.. pretty decent specs for entry notebook.

you might want consider this Lenovo G50-80 80E501HEMJ 15.6” , i5-5200U , 4GB , 1TB , AMD R5-M230 , W8.1 : RM2220/-

1.5k hardly to get good specs with certain requirement + and its totally not suite for gaming. Will cause lag.. + gst.. 1.5k very hard sweat.gif

Guys, is ASUS ROG GL551JW a new laptop? I don't see any store selling it yet. I'm in a pinch right now as I'm looking for a budget gamming laptop that's below RM4k (Or lower than 4k) and ive found ASUS ROG GL552JW vs GL551JW. I'm mainly using it for college uses but im also a gamer so I prefer something powerful and LIGHT WEIGHT for convenience.

might be EoL if you did not see any at the shop... Try look at garage sales.. How bout the new Lenovo Y50?

looks slim.. but not that slim.., heat flow might be so-so... battery life as low below average due to its build for gaming.
