Thanks for the clarification. Appreciate it

Just for your update, 330s 14 isn't a good buy anymore due to small 30Wh battery, sorry for the confusion

dell xps 13 9380 or just get xps 15 9570?
i5 for both unit...

Do you care about web cam?

Why not other options

i not using webcam for long time already,
what other option?

Hi,

I'm looking for a laptop here with budget of less than 4.5k, good portability, good typing with light gaming. I have my eye on Yoga 730 15 inch due to its 2-in-1 form factor and touch screen as I frequently scribbling on onenote. Any other recommendation?

Preferred max weight in kg and min battery life in hours? Must be 2 in 1?

Do you need 15" or 13" is suffice?

usage? xps 15 got gtx inside wo

Anything under 2 kilos would be ok. Preferably 7 hrs of battery life min. Not necessarily a 2 in 1.

I would prefer 14 inch or 15 inch screen size.

Hi all,

I want to ask for opinion about this laptop.
Anyone here using this laptop currently?
What your review on it?

Brand: Asus
Model: fx503v-me4215t
Processor: Intel i5-7300hq
Ram: 4gb ddr4 (Plan to update to 8gb or 16 gb)
Storage: 128 ssd + 1 tb hdd
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060 3g
Display: 15.6 fhd
OS: Windows 10

Budget: MYR 3000 - MYR 4000
Usage: Gaming (Casual gaming, Dota 2, Apex Legend, Overwatch: Ultra/High - 1080p 30fps - 60fps)

I would avoid Asus's FX series and Acer Nitro 5 due to bad thermal dissipation

dell G3 with 8th gen i5 new oso RM2999 only

asus tuf very hot

Forgot to ask, do you mind low sRGB display and non-upgradable RAM? Do you need a good keyboard? What games do you play?

Bad cooling and mediocre build quality, outdated CPU, GPU only 3GB VRAM, bad TN panel

You need RM4k+ if you want a decent 1060 laptop

I don't know much about sRGB display, so can't really say much. I mostly play civilization 6 and would love if the laptop can run just cause 3 at acceptable settings. Main use would be editing document, so really like if I got a nice keyboard. Upgradeable RAM would be a huge bonus if possible.

Hi,

Looking to replace my older laptop [HP Pavilion G4-1024TX]. I was quite happy with that laptop [upgraded ram to max, using SSD and 1TB hdd in the DVD Slot]. I'm thinking of getting a laptop from Viewnet [Lowyat Plaza], previously bought a desktop and the HP laptop there and was very satisfied. I've searched through Viewnet's Listing and marked those at 2.5K or less. Looking to add in a better SSD + RAM also; buying additional warranty if it's only 1 year. So, total trying to keep under 3K. Buying all the items in the same shop should enable me to get a better discount.

My usage is mainly for work. Other Criteria:
- Processor: Faster than i3-2310M in the HP
- Memory: 4GB [must be able to be upgraded]
- Storage: SDD or HDD doesn't matter [will be getting an Evo 860 or MX500]
- Screen: 14 minimum [HD/FHD; if can get FHD for lower or equal to the HD ones, then yes please]
- GPU: Doesn't matter? Little to Rare gaming
- Battery Life: As good as the old HP or better
- Software/stuffs that I use [things I currently use in my HP Laptop]: Microsoft Office, Photoshop (probably the most intensive one that I use), Multiple Chrome Windows


The ones I've marked [based on Price, Screen type and battery capacity than I can find online]:
HD Screens
14"
ACER E5-476-31EJ - RM1899 [Intel i3 8130U, iGPU, 41Wh or so, 1-Year Warranty]
ACER E5-476G-5413/50WA - RM2479 [Intel i5 8250U, MX150, 41Wh, 3-Year Warranty] [Seems to have the best specs in this listing]

LENOVO 14-BS727TU - RM1812 [Intel i3 7020U, iGPU, 41Wh, 1-Year Warranty]
LENOVO 14-CK0099TU/0101TU - RM1869 [Intel i3 7020U, iGPU, 41Wh, 1-Year Warranty]
LENOVO 14-CK0021TX - RM1999 [Intel i3 7020U, Radeon 520, 41Wh, 1-Year Warranty]


FHD Screen
14"
ACER SP314-51-35PJ - RM2299 [Intel i3 8130U, iGPU, 52.5Wh or so, 2-Year Warranty]
HP 14-CM0107AU/0108AU - RM 2259 [AMD Ryzen 5 2500, Radeon Vega, 41Wh, 1-Year Warranty]

15.6"
HP 15-DA0006TX - RM2499 [Intel i5 8250U, MX110, 41Wh, 2-Year Warranty]


Other laptops have better CPU [i5 8250U] but the battery capacity seems to be under 41W. Are the current laptops efficient enough that those under 41Wh [I see mostly around 30Wh] have the same operating duration or close as my old HP [47Wh]? If yes, then I'm open to those that I've not listed here [preferably from Viewnet].


Though, I'm open to any shop [In Lowyat Plaza if can, easier for me when I travel there] that can get me a better laptop and add-ons for the price .

Thank you!

1. Budget : 2k--3k
2. Usage : basic office work, internet surfing, watch movie, light gaming
3. Requirements: good display

I'm currently working outstation, travels on biweekly basis back home. Otherwise, my laptop will stay in room.

Recommendations are appreciated
