what about acer? everone seem to introducing hp and asus alot but not acer.

HP is very pricey,not really much people recommend about it.. especially longest battery life series that could break your wallet.. HP spectre series i not mistaken.. same as dell xps... these battery life+performance superb...

asus meanwhile, normally, people look at zenbook..

its been awhile people leave acer due their own personal reasons and asus starting starting to get popular among laptop buyer choice, so its normal when people recommend, dell or asus more than acer...

but do remember, asus customer service in malaysia is pretty sucks compare overseas. laugh.gif but overseas, its good..

since now acer is different than previous acer... they even have gaming lineup which is very damn expensive than hp omen and asus ROG. i believe the price is more or less with dell alienware...

Thank you for your replies!

For acer im actually eyeing on Aspire 13 and Swift 3. Mostly on Swift 3 as it have i5 and 256GB as Aspire 13 below RM 3K is only available for 128GB. Do you think its a good buy?
*
well, the different is storage...
1 is full SSD and another 1 is hybrid type. 1tb+128gb ssd right.. since Hybrid drives are faster than conventional hard drives. So, even if you went with the one with the hybrid, it would still access the storage faster than most other laptops out there.

but if you only working on words, browsing, entertainment streaming. swift 3 would be good. as storage doesnt need too big, you can purchase external hdd. + cloud storage getting popular these days too. so, keeping work online (as long as not sensitive data) it will be good choice to pick full ssd performance.

Bro, if compare these, which is better? If all around same price.

Asus GL553,  HP Omen, Msi Ge62/72, Gp62/72,  Dell 7566, Lenovo y700?

Omen and MSI GE i believe have gtx965m which is better than gtx960m

QUOTE(NubPro @ Dec 17 2016, 05:34 PM)
Price: 3K +/-
Screen: 13-15 inch (Touchscreen optional)
Resolution: 1080p
CPU: At least i5 (5th or 6th or 7th gen)
GPU: At least a decent discrete GPU (Optional)
Storage: 256GB SSD + 500GB HDD or 256GB SSD (Preferably mix)
Weight: Less than 2KG

Actually I don't mind old models, as long as it suffice the above requirements, I'll be really glad.

I'm currently looking at these models: (The closest I could find)

1. Vostro 14 5468 (RM 3400)
http://www.dell.com/my/p/vostro-14-5468-la...-14-5468-laptop
- Pros:
a. Good 7th gen CPU clocked up to 3.1Ghz (3MB cache)
b. 256GB SSD
c. GPU GeForce 940MX 4GB
d. 8GB RAM
e. Seems to have weak battery life, I'm not sure.
f. 1.66 KG

- Cons:
a. Resolution at 1366 x 768  mad.gif

2. Acer Aspire S 13 (RM 3400)
https://www.acer.com/ac/en/MY/content/model...ptops/aspires13
- Pros:
a. Decent 6th gen CPU clocked up to 2.8Ghz (3MB cache)
b. 256GB SSD
c. IPS Display 1080p (Crispy  thumbsup.gif )
d. 8GB RAM
e. Seems to have very good battery life (Media powerhouse)
f. Lightweight at 1.30 KG

- Cons
a. No dedicated GPU (Should be okay actually, not planning to play games)
b. RAM cannot be upgraded (Should also be okay)
c. Have to live with 256GB SSD storage (Upgrade-able)
d. No CD ROM (Also okay with this)

3. Acer Aspire F5 (RM 3500)
https://www.acer.com/ac/en/MY/content/model/NX.GDASM.001
- Pros:
a. Good 7th gen CPU clocked up to 3.5Ghz (4MB cache)
c. 1TB HDD + 128GB SSD (Very nice, I wish it has higher SSD configuration, I love speeds btw)
c. GPU 950M 4GB (I love to see this, but I doubt I'll be using it for intense gaming)

- Cons:
a. Less pixel density 1080p (15.7" display, not an IPS display either so I expect the image to be less sharp and less vivid)
b. Mediocre battery life (Not as good as Acer Aspire S 13 but again it comes with dedi GPU)
c. 4GB RAM (A little too less in my opinion,upgrade-able though)
d. Less portable at 2.40KG (It's also thicker in size and heavier)

Senpai, please recommend.
Feel free to drop more models, I'm still doing my research to get the bang for the buck.
Thank you!

ps Anyone has pricing for Asus Zenbook?
*
I'll go for aspire S13.....

Asus ZenBook UX360C-AC4189T 13.3" m3-7Y30, 8GB, 256GB, Intel, W10H also within rm3499 if i not mistaken. how ever... battery life longer than s13.. because of its different type of processor. m3-7y30 is very efficient dual-core SoC for tablets and passively cooled and hence longer battery life.

If yes, where can I get this upgrade? Without voiding warranty of course

if you see at the bottom of the notebook, if there is no sticker and able to open the enclosure, you may upgrade to 8gb.... normally, will not void the warranty.

QUOTE(Archmage Warlic @ Dec 25 2016, 12:59 PM)
Dear all, I need some recommendations, purchasing laptop soon. Multiple recommendations are welcomed, the more the better!

1. Preferred Brand
Any brand EXCEPT Lenovo.
Lenovo is pretty infamous for their pre-installed malwares/adwares/bloatwares/crapwares.
Currently using Acer Aspire E5-571G, pretty satisfied with everyday performance, but for some reason it crashes occasionally and the motherboard or HDD needs replacement every 10 months to 12 months.

2. Budget
MYR2500 (soft limit), MYR3200 (hard limit)

3. Usage
Multipurpose.
60% web browsing (with ≥10 browser tabs open)
15% videos / music
15% MS Word, MS Powerpoint, PDF document viewing or editing
5% Steam / Origin / Garena games
5% File and data transfer / storage
4. Screen
Approximately 15 inches or 15.6 inches

5. Notes
* Seeking for laptops with long battery life (MINIMUM 7 hours, preferring ≥10 hours)
* Seeking for laptop brands with good after-sales service availability. (Not preferring brands like MSI which only have ONE service centre in the entire country - any repairs will be a big hassle / problem)
* NOT looking for convertible / 2-in-1 laptops or touchscreen laptops, as these laptops sacrifice durability for these functions, or come with hefty price tags for these functions.
*
maybe you can check this
HP Pavilion 15-au168TX 15.6" i5-7200U, 4GB, 1TB, NV 940MX 4GB, W10H
HP Pavilion 15-au104TX 15.6" i7-7500U, 4GB, 1TB, NV 940MX 2GB, W10H
Acer Aspire F5-573G-556W 15.6" i5-7200U, 4GB, 1TB, 128GB, NV 940MX, W10H
Acer Aspire R5-571T-59XT 15.6" i5-6200U, 4GB, 1TB, Intel, W10H **


all listed have display 1080 FHD
**im not sure your 5% games. fps or fifa or strategy kind of game, so. expect much on this.
try expand to 8gb ram at least if have spare $$

1. Preferred Brand - Any
2. Budget - RM2.5k to RM3.2k
3. Usage - Work, movies, spreadsheet, web surfing, video/image editing(maybe)
4. Screen size - 13'' to 14'' (FHD is a must)
5. Slim and light weight (ultrabook)
6. 8G ram and i5 processor
7. At least 256G SSD

I'm eyeing on:
(1) Acer Aspire S13 - Dislike THICK bezels, but beautiful screen display, 8G ram onboard, usb type-c port
(2) Lenovo Ideapad 710S - Overall is nice particularly thin bezel screen display, however Malaysia only has 4G ram onboard, not up-gradable.

Any other recommendations?

8gb ram and 256 gb ssd for max range 3.2k
pretty hard..... but that s13 is the closest the one that you looking for

Thanks for your advice.

What about Acer Swift 3? What I saw from website is only 4gb ram.
Is that ram upgradable? Or soldered?

Harvey Norman displayed 8gb ram model.
*
its soldered 4gb ram is kinda the most min for win10...its better get 8gb and above if u r thinking to purchase soldered ram. but the storage is up gradable.
