Recommendations of laptop for students at a budget of RM4k Prefer 14 inch screen, good battery life and of course not so heavy.
Currently thinking of getting Zenbook UX433 , but is there any good option available ? Thanks

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Mar 12 2019, 08:27 PM) Usage? Min how many hours of battery life? Mind low sRGB display and non-upgradable RAM? 5 hours of battery life ? I think the screen could be better and upgradable RAM consider this price range ?

Would like to ask which should I choose ? Illegear Raven or Onyx Lite ?
Raven has better spec with i5 9300H and GTX 1650 but it is heavier(2.2kg0 as portable is my concern because I am a college students. It has thicker bezel than the Onyx Lite. Cheaper too(RM3766)
Onyx Lite has i5 8300H and GTX 1050 Ti. It is lighter(1.95kg) for my needs as a college students. In my opinion, the screen bezel is thinner too which is very nice to look at compared to Raven. However , it is slightly expensive too( RM3899)
What do you guys think? Do you think I should sacrifice better spec to get a portable one ? Will I regret ? I kinda in a dilemma.

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ May 16 2019, 12:54 AM) You need to try out the weight by yourself. Some might think that 2.2kg is light/acceptable while some might think that even 2kg is heavy Any preference on battery life? Max budget? Sure you want gaming laptop? Yeah but the Onyx Lite is so nice to look at with thinner bezel and lighter too, but Raven has better specs. Battery life 3-4 hours should be okay, max budget 4k. Having a gaming laptop would be okay too.
