I just refunded my Dell XPS 13 haha.. The laptop is great, but I opt-ing for a 16gb ram laptop..
Since Im getting my money back, so maybe I can try out another laptop? Budget about 7k. I can get student price as well.. Looking for 13inch or 14inch. Light laptop( no more than 1.5kg ) and a small power brick just in case I need to bring it. Prferably with decent battery life, around 7-8 hours preferably. Will be mainly using for college and some lightroom stuffs haha.. EDIT: Adding this in 1. Budget : 7.5k to 8k 2. Usage : Mainly for college, watching videos, and lightroom. Maybe Stardew Valley 3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : Preferably 13/14 inch. Battery life expect to last me at least 6 hours. Some days I need to bring to college and I'll be there from 8am till 5pm. Prefer to be light weight and thin. This post has been edited by eugenelimys: Oct 15 2018, 05:02 AM |

Not gonna game on it to be honest.. just gonna use it for college and some work.. and doing some lightroom haha Wouldnt the X1 Carbon be better? Would the X1 Carbon be better than XPS 13?

Hi there, looking for a new gaming laptop since my desktop died already,
1. Budget RM4000~ RM5000 (can stretch to 6k if I have to) 2. Usage: Mainly gaming (games like Warframe, The Division, Monster Hunter, Starcraft II and future game like The Division 2 and Anthem) 3. Requirements: prefer to have 17 inch laptop, batt life hope can last up to 3~6 hours and weight doesn't really matter, also good customer service if (touchwood) my laptop got issue or faulty. Currently I'm looking at a few MSI laptop and Illegear Z7 but would appriciate more choices |

If you can maybe wait for alienware M15 or razer blade 15 base model, need to see their pricing |
