Hi need comment for laptop, been searching for quite some time and I have shortlisted few as below:

1. Asus S510u
2. HP pavilion 14-bf102tx/103tx
3. ACER Aspire A515

Background:
Usage: Surf net (I need speed for surfing net, ie: not too lag), casual gaming (I do hope that the graphic card can support GTA V but it doesn’t necessary in high performance, but I hope it will not lag), some video editing, YouTube (I need good speaker sound quality)
Budget: max 3.5k
Prefer with SSD or additional slot for SSD
Portability and sleek design

P/S: I went to Digital Mall and basically everyone is hard selling me Lenovo even though I mentioned I wanted HP/Asus. I wonder if they get better incentives for Lenovo or it is really value for money?

they recommended me Lenovo Ideapad 320/320s, Legion, and another very sleek and slim design model but with only 256 SSD. (forgotten which model is that)

They seems to really not recommend ASUS for I don't know what reason.. I wonder if there is problem or something?

They recommended me the Lenovo Ideapad 320s, design is fine, but it comes with only 920MX. I was thinking 940MX as the minimum requirement for graphic card so I immediately took out that option. But he says if I upgrade to 8gb RAM it will be fine even though it's 920MX. etc

they told u the lenovo 320s got 2 ram slot ?

hi guys, I went to Lenovo authorised dealer shop yesterday. Price is about Rm 200+ pricier than the multi-brand seller. Can you guys share if there is any difference?

P/S: the authorised dealer sales person kept on emphasising they are "authorised", so any problem can reach out to them if it is regards to software. I was thinking all the pcs do have warranty under Lenovo so are they actually much difference?

Update: I went to Lenovo shop and almost wanted to buy the ideapad 320 - 15'' (they are having promotion and both 14' and 15' are at same price) until I saw Yoga 520 which is about 300+ more expensive. It attracts me cos it's sleek and SSD upgradeable. If add on 128gb SSD (PCie) it come up to price about RM 3,298. and they mentione PCie SSD is much more expensive compared to the SATA SSD, any comments? Thanks in advance.

I went to Lenovo page https://www3.lenovo.com/my/en/laptops/c/laptops
didnt see any 320 on i3 processors. Maybe not sold in Malaysia?

Prefer to be able to view the machine before deciding on purchase.
*
its available in Malaysia , sold few units already , quality not bad, cant expect much as the price range is below 1.7k

1 year carry in warranty by lenovo malaysia, can upgrade warranty
