My brother own one Acer Aspire E14 2017 model. My company also providing me with Acer Aspire E 14. It's give good performance, however I'm trying other model also.
Preferred weight is less than 2kg. Battery life min 4 hours. Display size 14" would be a good, usually I hook up to monitor. I don't mind low sRGB. RAM min 8GB since my work require a lot of RAM and CPU usage.

Hey guys, help me find the best value laptop for these requirements.

Budget: 3-4K
Usage: Normal usage at home, maybe light gaming
Requirements: 13-14 inch, lightweight, 8Gb RAM, 256GB SSD, MX150 (optional)

Currently looking at these, but open to suggestions.

1. Huawei Matebook D
2. Acer Swift 5
3. Asus UX331
4. Lenovo Ideapad 330s

Even just like sims and stuff? 🤔

Yup, that time I bought for less than RM3k, and can run most modern games in medium high settings. 
Seems like many people are recommending Illegear, after some quick study, seems like it is a local company that sells custom-built laptops, their reputation very good?
Also, their service center is in KL, but I live in Penang, so might be hard if I need to service the laptop. 

Hi, I'm looking a for a laptop for my sister who is apparently working in a company which doesnt provide an office laptop for her. The given given budget is only RM2K and given that I am active in the PC scene I know that is not enough for what she needs to be working on.Shes a graphic designer and she is working with Adobe, Dimensions, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Photoshop and other stuffs that typical graphic designer needs. Is there any suitable laptop within that budget that fits my sister's work? Any suggestions are appreciated.

ZM Fong You have any suggestion for okay okay cheap reliable USB-C dock?

Min of course, dual digital display (hdmi/dp/dvi) for my dual monitor, and better kalau dpt charge one go.

She already has a personal Mac, but she prefer an office laptop cause she's doean't want any unnecessary work files stored into her personal Mac. As for her budget, the boss is stingy of spending any money, I tried to insist her to increase the budget for her office laptop. But as of now, 2k is what we're working with. She might increase up to 3 to 4k.

1. Budget : max rm2000
2. Usage : for my sister who just finished spm, basically for normal usage, online streaming, youtubing, office works, not a gamer.
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 13", <2kg, 4gb ram (upgradeable to 8gb), 500gb i think is sufficient, processor and graphic card doesnt really matter i think..

If lets say i buy the 4gb ram and add another 4gb, will it void warranty?

Which has the longest battery life?

1. Budget : max 4k

2. Usage  :
- Work + Casual Gaming
- MS Office
- Website
- Streaming
- Work as an Engineer. Lots of AutoCAD viewing, Emails, Typing
- Casual Gamer (Cities Skylines)

3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) :
- 13-15inch Display
- Battery life is not a factor
- Weight prefarably not more than 2kg (move around alot)
- Prefer to have a nice design (alumininium)
- Good Keyboard for typing (a MBP user before)
- Prefer i5 and GTX1060 but AMD equivalent is ok for me too.

Brands (Models) in mind: Lenovo (Y Series), HP (Gaming, Envy), Illegear (Onyx Lite). Can suggest others too.

Thank you guys.

Seller can PM me too.

I would be willing to increase the budget if the upgrade worth the cost. What you reckon? Do I need that much firepower or MX150 is good enough?
I would type alot of emails and papers. Games are more for casual but it would be good to have solid one.

Checked out T480, seem to fit my budget. Nice design too. I'm quite noob in this but is MX150 is good enough? i5 or i3?

How much would eGPU would cost usually?
At the moment, just city simulation games like Cities Skylines just to fill up my time between flights.

Hi, can anyone recommend a laptop for me.

a) budget : below rm3000

b) usage : for studies in uni (mainly ms office, web browsing and probably occasional movie watching), not for gaming

c) no specific requirements, just a laptop with best value for money and fullfills my usage. however, i tend to favour more towards dell products as i am looking for reliability and my studies will be overseas : don't think i can afford any repair works at least for the next 3-4 yrs

Thank you for helping

I looked around and found a similar spec from HP Envy 13-ah1027tx (i5-8th/8GB/360GB/MX150) price is abit cheaper and can go for EPP too. How's the build quality for HP and their keyboard?

Hi Guys, my wife is looking for a new laptop for her PhD study.

3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : easy to bring along to conference, 14 15inch, good battery, and if possible with a good after sales service.

Thanks for the recommendation! Assuming I can bump up my budget, can recommend a good 1060 model?
Would like to know also in general, what are the differences between brands? Most of the time i notice the specs are almost identical yet the price can be few hundred RM difference. Any tips? E.g. build quality...? Overheating issues...?

Okay thanks! so illegear raven cooling is ok?
