Tried both the ideapad 720s and zenbook ux331 physically

While i really prefer the value that zenbook has to offer, cheaper and mx150

I really cannot accept the keyboard and the overall structure being a little flimsy to me, maybe it's because of the thinness

Ending up going with the lenovo with intel proc and no mx150...more expensive but feels better overall especially the keyboard and the iron grey colour

tat is true... taiwan brand laptop keyboard sux for the mid low range.. the space gap between the alphabet is not even..

xiaomi mi book keyboard is even worse.. surface pro 2 type cover feel

greedy? Cutting cost everywhere and sell premium price.
AW more hebat, all high (high spec/high cost/premium price tag).

yes u r absolutely right bout ASUS.. cut here n there n the price r getting higher.. margin getting lesser

AW r like bentley brand in gaming world , same like MSI.. the price u paid u expect service from them... if comparing service.. MSI r more premium coz they hv no onsite service...

dun compare bentley with honda about price... AW got resell value.. MSI titan too... GS... mayb.. but a ROG... most ppl tekan ASUS price when they buy.. pasar malam

That kind of practice has been ruled illegal in EU. Does it make an economic sense for China to employ two standards for all products for EU and the rest of the world?

only certain china local penetrate EU market legally wat... how many of china brand actually passed EU standard le? take smartphone alone... huawei n one plus.. honor n xiaomi those actually dun hv official store in EU.. they sell through online..

had China make any sound sense b4? 1 belt 1 road had being destroying countries economy.. look at Pakistan, sri Lanka.. after accepting the policy.. nation debt double n hiking.. lets not forgeting our country.. u can say it was jibby greed tat create the debts.. but in the end the actually beneficiary is China

I rmb u mentioned before that the UX430 has throttling issues. Saw online that it throttles at 73C and has issues with coil whine.
Does this seems to limit the usage/potential of the MX150 without undervolting/clock.
In this aspect do u think the swift 3 will be a better choice if I were to go for one of these 2 laptops?
*
generally asus need repaste thermal gel after 6 months.. taiwan brand dun really focus on cooling coz budgetting... most of them giv u 2 heat pipe only...

tat y u see msi come out with so many range.. gs n above no heat issue but gs n below all potential goreng telur

It seems zenbook design is prone to these heat issues. Maybe too thin? I wonder repasting can drop how many degrees
Hmm, so if comparing these 2 models basically its a trade off between better screen/build quality on zenbook VS better heat mgmt & less throttling on swift 3.
*
not thin or thick.. even their rog oso got heat issue.. if u open inside n check.. u will vomit blood when see the heat sink design

Laguna don't have any major issue. Quanta chassis. You can also consider Thunderobot Dino, it's the same Quanta NL5A.

Also consider these options: Thunderobot 911 GT (Quanta NL9K), Illegear Raven Elite (TongFang GJ5CN6E), Level51 W15 Lite (desktop CPU, Clevo N950TP6). Budget options like Dell G7, Dell 7577 and Lenovo Y720 also good but may need repaste (if the stock paste is bad) and they use entry level IPS.

AW15 has CPU cooling issue (heatsink, thermal paste) but this will depend on luck

90% of the laptop heatsink design fail la... >.< those brand tat call themselves master in cooling... if they use normal thermal gel like dell AW... 99% of them roast chicken de lo... the only brand tat hv truly upper hand cooling is ONLY MSI TITAN series..

the rest.. if u no use good thermal gel all GG

Battery life is a factor too. If it has auto cut off charging feature ll be a plus point. I would prefer something handy as i need to carry around to different place.

I dont know the maximum weight. Is 2kg below laptop looks like those thin handy laptop?

1. Preferred brand : Any brand with good reps at this range of lappie
2. Budget :+- 4500
3. Usage : Not high end gaming (mild gaming like pubg, etc), cooling and audio must not be a problem
4. Screen Size : 15.6

currently looking at a few models that range from 4k to 5k (like lenovo, alienware 15, MSI GL63, acer helios....Open to other model/brand as well)
wanna find out whether the extra bang is it worth the buck from any sifus.

er.. ur budget cant get 7th gen aw DFO le.. unless 6th gen those...

suggest u look into dell inspiron G7 or g3
