Looking for a laptop. Any recommendation?

1. Preferred Brand: any brand
2. Budget: 2K to <3K
3. Usage: movies, downloads, online surfing, MS office document/powerpoint, edit PDF, mild photo editing.
4. Preferred laptop/screen size: 14" or 15"
5. Other preference:
a. intel i5 processor, preferably 6th gen.
b. do not require touchscreen
c. do not require 360 flip type
d. preferably with optical drive

Side question: I noticed thus far only Acer and Dell offers i5-6200U processors, do you guys think how long it takes for other brands to start offering i5-6200U?

thanks.

Pavilion 15-ab240TX comes with gt940m.

the price difference is about rm400. the differences between acer and hp are the gpu, hdd size and warranty which hp comes with 2 years warranty. or maybe brand name.

i dont know if the price difference justify the spec differences tho. hmm.gif

and my budget is about 2.5k btw.

yes. 840m and 940. performance is almost da same. just that 940 is re-brand of 840 series + pavillion equip with bigger storage.

price different sometimes influence by warranty.

acer comes with 1 yr warranty? if 500gb is ok for you. if like dat. acer is good choice.
then remaining money, use for external hdd + ram.

sometimes, i dont like hp hotkey laugh.gif

Acer Aspire V Nitro VN7-572G-57N0 15.6" (i5-6200U, 4GB, 1TB HDD, NV GTX950M, W10H)
Acer Aspire R 14 R5-471T-53ZK 14" (i5-6200U, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Intel, W10H)

other brand to offering skylake i5 maybe depends with the outcome of the market. importing the series too. malaysia market growth seems slow

Hey, I came here from V26 and realized there is no format displayed in this version so I got this from V26:

1. Brand: No preference. But May I ask why is it nvidia GPUs seem to be so popular in laptops while AMD is so so rare?
2. Budget: Below 4k
3. Usage: Word processing, browsing, CAD programs eg. Solidworks, Casual gaming eg. Dota2, CSGO, Rust
4. Screen size: 15-16" range (fullHD)

Thanks!

Thanks but is there competitive flavors from the likes of other brands like asus and msi? Not looking for brands just like to see what other options I have heh.

On the Dell website it just says Inspiron 15 7000 series with the one you mentioned being the 8GB RAM config. Where does it say its a 7559? Unfamiliar with laptop naming conventions here icon_question.gif

Thanks!

If other brand, the price might be higher than 4K like the Acer V Nitro, Asus ROG G552 and etc. You can check out the price list here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3753380 for all the available gaming laptop.

I initially also blur with that but you can look for the 15'' with red colour dell word model for gaming series. Haha. RM3999 that one.
