Hello guys...,can anyone help me to choose the winner between these 2 laptop...

HP Pavilion 15-cs1026TX or Acer Aspire 5 A515-52G-547K

Both are using i5-8265U and NVD MX150 2GB DDR5...,ram and ssd i will upgrade myself.

Which one have better

1)Build quality
2)Performance/Cooling
3)Display
4)Battery life

Budget (including upgrades)? Usage? Preferred max weight, min battery life and display size?

Budget including upgrades = 3k.., Usage=movies,dota2,some engineering software, weight and battery life dont mind...Display has to be 15 inch thin bezel...,which one is better between those two above?

How do these two fare against each other? I'm not sure about the intel integrated GPU, I heard these are underwhelming in performance

Swift 3 - good model, HP 15-da - mediocre model

What's your budget? Usage? Any preference on weight, display size and battery life?

Why not gaming laptop?

Gaming laptop 3k i think can only get acer nitro 5...,i dont like the red and black colour...,legion y530 above budget...my max including total ram 8gb and ssd 256 is 3k only...

Can consider Level51 Forge 15. 8GB RAM+512GB SSD included. Thin bezels. Build quality is OK only but still acceptable. Very good cooling

If you don't mind slightly thicker bezels then Illegear Raven Lite

Alright will check it out...,anyway between the Acer aspire 5 and HP pavilion 15, which one would u say better?

Hi, I'm looking for a laptop to last a few years,

Budget: 4k
Usage: Premiere Pro/Illustrator/Occasional gaming
Screen Size: 15" and below

Weight should be as low as possible though, preferably around 2kg. Would love a thin bezel display too. Went to illegear, but their Onyx didn't have the 6 core i7 in stock and they will not be restocking it. Any other recommendations?

1. Budget : Rm2k
2. Usage : Office Usage,
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) :
> If possible can last 3hours+
> 13"-14"
> ac wifi card
> 1G Ethernet port
> 8gb ram

Neither - A515-52G has flimsy build quality, Pavilion 15-cs has poor battery life

No preference on battery life?

Gaming laptop with around 2kg weight usually aren't cheap, might want to change requirement or up budget. Or stick with i5-8300H+1050TI Onyx Lite
Suggest increasing budget to 2.5k

Thoughts on the Level51 Forge 15? Seems to have better specs than the Onyx for around the same price.

See my review. TL;DR: decent, superior cooling. But it has ~2.2kg weight

Also can consider Illegear Raven (~2.2kg)

spec it offer different.. so...can say level51 cheaper than onyx... eyeing on F15 pro

ok. can increase rm2.5k

1-2k, I do a bit of gaming and GPU heavy stuff like 60fps rendering. No preference on weight but a display that doesn't glare much is preferable. Long lasting battery would be good, I'd like it if there was a HDD + SSD combo in there.

Acer Swift 3 SF314-54-55JD / 57FD / 59T5 +RAM
Your budget is quite tight...so you need dGPU? Min how many hours of battery life you prefer?

Yeah quite tight. Dedicated GPU, yes. But isn't a priority though, integrated with good reviews are fine too. About 4-6 hours of battery life on light usage? Though I try not to run it down to 0%.
