QUOTE(mofared @ Aug 30 2018, 10:21 PM) i suggest you get the latest a485 with the ryzen 5 pro. the model is using the same model like the t480 but the amd comes with better cpu. A485 is not available yet on Lenovo website, where else can order it?also if you fancy the magnesium cover you can get it by upgrading the camera to enable that option. all in still below 4k. finally if you do not plan to upgrade the ram take dual channel options 4gb+4gb |

this is what sales rep told me that if you plan to buy it to avoid sst do not use credit card because lenovo only charge after the product arrive. So your final price will include sst.

Hi guys,
First post here despite lurking for many years. Does anyone know when exactly the rest of the new HP Envy 13 range will be available? So far only 2 models - 8th Gen i5 and i7 with the MX150 GPU are available and both are in Silver on display in Singapore and it is absolutely beautiful. Just got tired of talking to HP Malaysia as they either tell you it's launching end AUG / early SEP or we have no idea the next moment. Cheers, VaN |

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Aug 31 2018, 11:38 AM) Aesthetic reasons, bro - I know I'm being lame but I like the new design cues better. Less sharp edges and it looks much more refined. Tried out the display unit in S'pore - fit and build quality is better and the full HD screen is slightly brighter compared to the current AD series. The Spectre x360 is also another option I'm looking at - need to get a work notebook soon to replace my old Vostro 14 .. Cheers, VaN |
