Hi would really appreciate if you guys can recommend me some laptops:
1. Budget : <6k 2. Usage : -Statistical modeling with big dataset (main job), adobe illustrator for simple designing (occasional work only) 3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : -Display Size: at least 13" -Weight: preferably <2kg -RAM: ideally 16GB so that I can save some time for my work but not sure if this is doable within this budget?  Thanks in advance! |

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ May 23 2019, 01:36 PM) Lenovo Thinkpad L390/L380 Yup 15" is fine, battery life not too much of an issue because already used to carrying adapter around Acer Swift 3 SF314-54-55JD / 57FD / 59T5 +RAM Lenovo Ideapad 530s 14 81EU00NRMJ/ SMJ/ TMJ/ UMJ All have upgradable RAM but low sRGB IPS. Fine with 16GB non-upgradable RAM? Ask sales representative in their website chat banner Last longer = premium business laptop = more expensive Fine with manual upgrades? (add RAM/SSD by your own) Fine with carry in warranty? (not onsite) Any preference on battery life? Fine with 15 inch?  |
