Laptop around 3.5k that is suitable for study , gaming and watching movie. Prefer nice display and battery life and 14 inch. Could increase budget if necessary. Thanks!

1. Budget : Around 3-4k
2. Usage : Browse, coding, movie night,
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) :
I own a desktop, so most heavy lifting at there,
I wan something light, superb battery life, highly portable,
ssd boot, 8GB ram should be ok (chrome should be taking 50% of it haha)

I saw My friend asus zenbook, the design looks nice, light, etc etc. But i haven't look at it's spec yet.

Min how many hours of battery life? Can accept 13 inch? Mind non-upgradable RAM?

Preferred max weight in kg and min battery life in hours? Mind low sRGB display and non-uogradable RAM?

Battery life, > 3 hours
13inch yea

i prefer upgradable ram for laptop
max weight hmmm, let's say <2kg? Cause i now own a laptop that weights 2.5kgs and the battery only last 1 hour unplug. become difficult to move around.
Display hmmm, if possible, i would prefer a good display (

The longer the better for battery life , prefer 14inch more and upgradable RAM. If there isnt any good laptop at this price point , no problem to increase the budget.

Upgradable RAM in 13 inch laptops is quite hard to find

If you want 13 inch+upgradable RAM+good display, Thinkpad L380 Yoga is a good choice, but it's above your budget

Hi sifus

1. Budget : below 5k
2. Usage : browsing internet, watch videos, normal computer usage
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : battery life about 4 hours or more, light weight below 1.7kg, user-friendly for old people

Do recommend me both notebooks where the monitor is detachable and non-detachable.

Thank you.

Choose between nice display or upgradable RAM, you can't get both for your budget if you want 14 inch

Ideapad S540 81NH000MMJ might fit in your requirements but there isn't any reviews yet

Give an absolute max budget to make things easier

Min battery life in hours and max weight in kg?

Detachable monitor - you mean tablet?

How about RM 18,000 MacBook Pro ?

Nice display would be my choice

University student here. Want to get laptop for engineering and gaming.

1. Budget: 3k-5k (can increase budget if a good option arise)
2. Usage: AutoCAD, engineering, gaming at 60fps high 1920x1080
3. Requirements: decent color, max 2.3kg laptop (lightweight powerbrick if possible), >2-3 hr (higher is welcomed)

I've been eyeing for illegear prodigy/rogue since it fits the requirements, but other laptop recommendations are welcomed.

side question: how big of a difference is there between a laptop 1660ti 6gb and a laptop 2060 6gb in terms of gaming?

Sry. Budget below RM5k - no gaming.

Battery life min 4 hours. Below 1.7kg.

The laptop where the screens can be detached and can be used as touchscreen tablets.

Then be specific

You may look at Microsoft Surface to be honest . Got couple of freebies

If not soo power user , can look for normal Surface


Personally if you are looking at a good 2-in-1 laptop computer/tablet. I WOULD recommend Lenovo Yoga but it's a bit meh , Surface is still FTW

1660Ti vs 2060 , 1660Ti is capable to drive at High settings with >fps 60. It has a performance of a GeForce 1070 .However 2060 has advantages when you are doing machine learning or AI

Personally I would get a business laptop + an external graphics dock for gaming but it wouldn't be ideal for gaming on the go (that's me)

Acer Swift 3 SF314-55G-547H or Asus Zenbook UX430U-NGV176T
Can't comment on Prodigy and Rogue since I haven't test them out, however Rogue should be OK (2.35kg)

Fine with 1060 laptop? Or you prefer 2060/1660TI?
So you're looking at tablet. TBH there isn't much options to choose from since I personally avoid Surface products. Fine with 2 in 1 convertible? Cannot detach display but got touchscreen

Actually doesnt need to be exact 13inch, im fine with screen size. 15inch also can.
Just not too heavy, good battery life, nice design, good display
No need: good gpu, since im not using it, without gpu also fine

Im looking at asus zenbook 14 and Huawei Matebook

Studies, but should be able to last abt 3-4 years before obsolete right?
I want to build desktop when i work, but for now i always move around without car so laptop is my only option.

1060 laptop is also fine, but got newer and faster graphics card out now. I prefer 1660ti cos i dont really see the use of raytracing in 2060 for me, but if the price between the two isnt much different i rather have the better one.

1660Ti would do the trick , as it has a bit more cores. So you can play future games at 1080p High (maybe slight things at Medium also). Now would the whole laptop last after 4 years , that's a different question...

1060 is still going strong and will go strong for 1080p gaming
