UX430UA, Envy 13 (no dGPU) and Spin 5 13 are good choices too. Yoga 520 also good but need RAM upgrade. Swift 3 15 also a good budget option but it has 15.6 inch display. Swift 5 has OKish battery life. Check NBC reviews to know more info.

Make sure you get the newer model with 8250U CPU

No one can guarantee reliability since it mainly depends on luck. 'True' business laptops like Thinkpad T series have good reliability in general, however they can be expensive.

Wait for more CFL-H options. If you can't wait then Dell 7577 or Lenovo Y520, RAM and SSD upgrades are needed though.

Hai There smile.gif

Need a laptop for a friend of mine.

Do not prefer : ACER

Budget RM3.5K

Requirement : Movies, Minimal editing work, not too heavy to bring around.
No gaming at all.

Battery Life Matters(Not the biggest priorities tho).

Thanksssss!

These options come with my mind, though I may miss out some options:
1. Asus UX430UA with 7100U, 8GB RAM+256GB SSD, good IPS panel, 1.25kg, 50Wh battery
2. Lenovo Ideapad 710s plus with 7200U, 8GB RAM+256GB SSD, good IPS panel, 1.1kg, 46Wh battery (OKish battery life)
3. Lenovo Ideapad 320s 14 with 8250U+920MX, need RAM+SSD upgrades, entry level IPS, 1.7kg, 52Wh battery
4. Lenovo Yoga 520 14 with 7130U, need RAM upgrade, entry level IPS, 1.7kg, 52Wh battery

Is there any particular reason why you want to avoid Acer laptops? They have decent models like Swift 3 15 and Spin 5 13.

Nope, just bring it to any authorized Acer reseller and they will do it for you without voiding warranty. Add 4GB 2400MHz RAM and 120/128GB M.2 SATA SSD is around RM420 but I'm not quite sure since prices change often.

Is it possible to find a rm4k laptop with 1050Ti ah?
Using for college, so prefer the brick to be not too big and the laptop to be not that heavy and thick.

Battery life is no concern, if needed will bring brick to school haha..
