QUOTE(puremage111 @ Oct 27 2017, 04:45 PM) Ahhh psps  Didn't realise i put the + which lead to the wrong way Alright thanks for the suggestion there! TBH, after so many years, i only bought Asus/Lenovo Laptop, i am kinda biased towards other brand perhaps because when i am young, i uses my Dad's Sony , Mum's Acer and all seems slowwwwww. Is Acer and HP actually good? I don't have good impression on these brand  Now doing fine on their gaming / high end models. no worry , warranty coverage also fine. for sure , Dell 's warranty still no 1 efficiency

Your opinion? Asus laptop no onsite warranty. the battery life shorter pros : can upgrade ram, bigger screen size This post has been edited by shirogawawa: Nov 1 2017, 04:20 PM

1. Preferred brand : None 2. Budget : 2000-2400 (Max after GST) 3. Usage : Needs to be lightweight, Office Work, Programming, No Gaming 4. Screen Size : Prefer 15inch (Non touchscreen)
Extra note : I dont care about the GPU. A good CPU with decent ram is enough for work usage. Buying for father. Backlit keyboard is a plus.
