1. Preferred brand :
Any brand is fine.

2. Budget :
Not more than RM3k

3. Usage :
Mainly work purposes (excel,words,etc), light gaming. Will be carrying it around very often, so lightweight-average weight would be good.

4. Screen Size :
14-inch

Had been using Dell Vostro 5470 i7 for almost 4 years now. Generally really liked it because it was light and are pretty good in managing multiple tabs and applications open at the same time. But well, maybe because it is getting old, it had been constantly overheating and not responding. Which is why I decided to buy a new laptop. But yeah, any kind of laptop similar with the current laptop that I am using is pretty good. smile.gif

Hello, my desktop just died and am looking for laptop now for portability.

1. Preferred brand: Asus but I'm open to reliability.
2. Budget :4k+-
3. Usage : Uni use. website browsing and microsoft office, playing street fighter 5 at max settings, bonus points if it has nice speakers and screen.
4. Screen Size :13"/14"
5. Other: I will be bringing this out a lot. so portability and battery life is important.
UX550V looks like the perfect laptop that I would get but that is way out of my budget.
Looking at UX430U now. But are there any other reliable alternatives in the market?

Is the integrated intel graphics actually sufficient these days? Just want to be watching videos at 1080p and play street fighter v that's all. I don't play any other graphics intensive games. At home I'll plug it into my monitor.

u should look at mx150 laptop. asus n reliability no more fren de.. haha.. in fact laptop nowadays u need extendable warranty n preferable onsite..

I am not sure is there any laptop with requirement as above.

Note : Currently using Asus TP200S (bought 2 years ago) and its very laggy. We have a few units. All the users complaint it is very slow. 1 unit goes blue screen almost everyday. 1 more always has problem with Microsoft office. Sent to warranty, but problem still persist sad.gif

I am expecting to have a budget of at least 3k, so I can opt for this, but I need to justify why I am buying a laptop more than 2k sad.gif

I just bought this guy so, I heartily recommend it.

-Lenovo 720S with ryzen 2500u = RM3299

It's only got 4GB RAM, but don't worry. With a fast 256GB pcie ssd, this won't be a problem. The chugging only happens if you're using 5400rpm hdd.

Amazing performance for a casual gamer!

This little baby can play overwatch at 40 fps at 1080p (render scale 50%, low settings of course). It will definitely eat those three games up if you play them at 720p.

The weight us 1.2kg, light as a feather. You can also charge and game on it with a powerbank only (I'm using Anker 10000 watt powerbank).

You can't believe how useful the ability to game and do heavy work while charging from a powerbank really is. Reminds me of the Nintendo Switch. Playing overwatch at work could never be easier.

Not that I recommend it (you could get fired), so please, exercise caution and common sense.

And the screen is fantastic!

I highly recommend that you at least check it out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wQGc2CkWVY

Else there's....

-HP envy with 8250u and MX150 2GB = RM4799

Better performance. But you can't use a powerbank to charge and play it.

would u open a dedicated post n snap us some on site picture... the ryzen 2nd gen pc processor is quite disappointing in term of performance (price wise imba).. so i believe most of us r hoping the laptop version will redeem the ryzen pride..

Been asked to geta quote on my own, even though I'm at work.

1: Preferred Brand - any except Mac
2: Budget - 4.3k
3. Screen Size - 15.6", but not the priority
4. Main preference - Ultrabooks because I want it light. Win10Pro. SSD. 8GB RAM.
5. Usage - Work. It's word processing mostly so nothing too fancy.

by the looks of it most brands of ultrabooks tend towards the ranges of like 5k onwards for large screen sizes, whether it's the XPS, zenbook, envy, etc... pricelists in lowyat aren't too varied with their models.

Doing this before I spend like half a day walkin around the Digital Mall soon. Thanks guys!
