QUOTE(Slick69 @ Oct 8 2017, 05:13 PM) None What you picked is the best one available so far. Congrats.😍 But DO get the 8GB ram BEFORE you order it...... ....... because that one is probably soldered (it means that you can't upgrade it later) and trust me you will need more RAM even for some mere office work. There are some alternatives, but most of them will be arriving much later https://www.notebookcheck.net/Acer-Swift-3-...w.257492.0.htmlThanks for ur inputs. Yeah...I believe it's hard to find another piece like s15. I definitely will opt for at least 8Gb or higher ram if I am gonna take it. I also heard many people complain abt theirs customer service lousy. Annoying. Acer swift 13 15 inch quite okay with its weight. Abt 2.1kg but it's graphics card turning me down. One thing they r good. Processor n ssd 256gb . Pricing very tempting. Thanks again to u. I will shortlisted few models first before getting one.

QUOTE(PinnochioKing @ Oct 8 2017, 08:13 PM) Do you mind sharing some of the shortlisted laptop? I am also currently looking for laptops similar like the s15. So far i have found hp pavilion 14, hp envy 13, and acer aspire e14. Hi, so far only s15 is in my list but another models suggested by myway1985 inspiron 7560 i5-7200u/4g/128 + 500gb/gt 940mx/15.6 fhd ips/1yr/w10H RM3199 quite tempting although it's equipped with older processor n graphics card. Its weight abt 2kg also a merit point. I need to check more models before deciding.

QUOTE(PinnochioKing @ Oct 8 2017, 09:25 PM) I found this on lazada, HP Pavilion 14-bf103TX (Silver)/Intel Core i5-8250U/8GB DDR4/128GB+1TB HDD/14"FHD LED/NVD 940MX 2GB DDR5RM/ around 1.7KG and it costs RM3,459.00. I think this laptop can be considered although there isn't an IPS screen (unless you want one). Plus I am still waiting for more laptops to be refreshed or released into Malaysia with the latest 8th generation core and newer/ better entry level graphic card (mx150 if I a not wrong). Hopefully the right laptop will come along by this year. Yeah. This is quite closed to s15 but it's only 14 inch. If not I can consider this too. Pricing also a winner here compare to s15. I think newer line lappy is coming out gradually now. Maybe more to come. Keep looking

QUOTE(hassle_horf @ Oct 8 2017, 09:44 PM) From what i see, you're looking for a light laptop. What about Surface? Abit pricey, but i am loving mine. either that or even the Acer Switch, HP Specter or ASUS Vivobook will be good. Go to a shop and check out which one you like the most? Thanks for ur recommendation. Surface ? I never thought of it before. Too expensive for me. It's good n famous but too expensive and its screen too small. Or maybe they have 15 inch lately but I never noticed. For sure very exp if any. Anyway thanks to u. This post has been edited by hsunl: Oct 9 2017, 06:32 AM
