Hi guys, please help me..

Is there any i5 4th gen or above tht cost around than RM1500+-???

Brand: dont care but prefer well known such as dell asus

Budget: RM1500+-

Usage: office work + heavy web browsing (multiple tabs) + entertainment or light gaming

I only want i5 laptop and expecting snappy performance .. Had bad experience with i3, very slow..
Max screen is 14in.. Max weight 2kg.. Portability is also important.. If possible also want dedicted gpu..

Please help me sifu.. Someone offered me vostro 5470 rm1550.. But i read a lot this model got unfixed wifi card issue..

I don't think you can find one, unless used. How old is this vostro?  I think it is a good offer because the retail price for this model is Rm2149 before. Actually you can just swap WiFi card with another one.

Vostro 5470 is 2014 model.. I ve read tht changing wifi card doesnt solve the prob.. It is design flaw... Rm1550 is actually for new one.. Not used..

Then can u suggest me the cheapest i5 laptop tht meet my requiremnts above?

How about lenovo s410.. Is it a good model?
Z40 70 with tn panel.. Is tn panel really looks bad?

if dell vostro still in good condition and always wifi card prob.. i suggest you buy the wifi dongle

at most, only can found these 2..  can get lenovo z40..
Lenovo G40-80 14” - i5-5200U , 4GB ram , 500GB , AMD R5-M230 , DOS : RM1630+/-
Lenovo Z40-70 14” FHD  - I5-4210U , 4GB , 500GB , GT820 2GB , W8.1 , 1YR warranty : RM1730+/-
The main advantage using TN panel is that it provides the shortest response times, making them good for gaming. In combination with LED back-lighting, offer high brightness and draw less power.

There is no single type of LCD that is good at everything. What panel type you choose must be a compromise based on how you use the monitor. Gamers will generally be happy with TN panels and their exceptional response time. Photographers and graphic designers should buy an IPS monitor instead...

and usually TN is cheaper than IPS.

Hi, many thanks for the reply..

Last question.. Is Lenovo a reliable brand?

I only bought dell and asus laptop for the past years, have very good experience with dell.. A little bad experience with asus bcos of slow warranty claim.. But still satisfied...

So is lenovo a good brand like asus or dell? Especially its budget laptop..
