QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Sep 27 2018, 04:07 PM) Yes Hi Sifu, is A485 worth getting compared to T480? Lenovo MY has a "NIGHT" coupon that offsets RM600 too.1. Go for FHD IPS panel 2. If you don't need bulk storage, go for 256GB SSD. If yes, 500GB HDD+128GB SSD 3. Go for R5/R7 APU. Basically difference is iGPU 4. No need W10 Pro 5. Choose 65W adapter Remember choose dual channel memory and bigger battery. Also, tick all the RM1 upgrades If you need other stuffs like backlit keyboard, fingerprint reader etc, remember to add them too Also will lenovo install the OS in the first hard drive or second hard drive? |

Sifus,
Thinkpad. If I want a i5-8250, 16gb, FHD (or WQHD), for both hardiness and sexiness which model should I aim for. Budget 4-5k. May top up to increase sexiness. A485 vs E485 vs T480 vs T480s |
