QUOTE(starry-starry @ Apr 28 2016, 11:12 PM) Among these few choices, which one do you recommend? - Vostro 5459 i3 - Vostro 5459 i5 - Inspiron 13 7000 Series 2-in-1 i3, 500GB hard drive - Inspiron 13 7000 Series 2-in-1 i3, 1TB hard drive At first I thought of getting Vostro 5459 i3 as you said I may not notice much difference between i3 and i5 based on my usage. Then I came across a bad (1 star) review on this model with no review on this series in Dell website which lead me to a second thought should I get the 2-in-1 laptop instead... Well..vostro using TN panel coz it's entry business grade ma.. Get xps 11?

Preferred laptop/screen size: 15" 5. Other preference: Asus. light weight, preferably thin, i5 6th Gen is enough. Don't want touch screen. Wanted to go for ASUS ZenBook UX305UA but its 13". Zenbook pro i think too expensive right? Is Asus K501LX series lousy? Is it old model? Too confusing about Asus series. Oso can consider inspiron 5559.. Can get i5 wif ssd or i7 de..

QUOTE(wjunjie @ May 2 2016, 11:50 AM) I tried Metal Gear Rising with it only. Run smoothly. My main usage is on words, excel, web browsing and movie download. Should not be a problem with 6 hours battery life if light usage. Just tried unplugged and it estimate 7 hours+ with 99% battery. ( It always plugged in office and home) I ordered from nbplaza.  Haha.. Y not order from Dell.. However nb plaza still better than some price slashers...
