Hi guys, first time buying laptop for myself here despite using several in the past at work. I've had some experience in Lenovo, Asus, HP and Thinkpad. Now looking for one for myself for work, a little movies or youtube, etc...gaming is a bonus. But my budget is below 3k.
Looked at some brochures and kinda interested in the following, could get some recommendations from experts with focus mainly on quality, reliability, and maybe warranty? Oh, battery life another bonus. Nowadays they have all kinds of weird warranties - on-site, ADP by Lenovo, Dell ProSupport, etc.
Acer - Acer used to be bad quality in the past but I hear they're getting better these days?
Aspire E15 (E5-575G-525T) - RM2,599
Lenovo - really good quality laptop I've used many years ago. Are they still the same now?
Ideapad 320S - RM2,899 (thin and light series?)
Ideapad 320S-141KB - RM2,799
Ideapad 320-141KBN - RM2,399
Dell - another brand famous in the past, not sure how they are now.
Vastro 14 5000 (5468-20412G-W10) - RM2,899
Asus - used this a couple of years back, passed on to a colleague of mine and its still functioning well.
Vivobook S15 S510UQ - RM2,899 (very interested in this due to its 1.7kg and 17.9mm profile. Might consider the SSD upgrade for RM400)
Vivobook Max x441UV - RM1,899
A Series A456UR - RM2,599
HP - their mid-range laptops seem to be kinda slow on processing for some reason. Had a couple of colleagues using them and all have same complaint.
Pavillion x360 14-ba063TX - RM2,799 (folds to tablet mode AND comes with a stylus!!)
Pavillion 14-al102TX - RM2,799
