If you're only going to use it for those purposes, I would suggest you get the ThinkBook instead of the IdeaPad Gaming

Some ThinkBook can still fit your RM3K budget

So everyone in the world knows how to replace the LCD panel, they know how to replace the motherboard by themselves is it?
Spending RM300 for the 3 year onsite warranty is worth it in case the motherboard dies within that 3 year warranty period. You think motherboard replacement costs only RM300?

And because it doesn't happen to you, it will never happen to anyone else?

I never consider extended warranty a bad investment. It's a good investment to me and a lot of other people
So instead of dumping a 1 year old laptop which the motherboard has suddenly died, I & a lot other people can rest easy that our laptops is insured for at least 3 years no matter what happens so long as we don't cause physical damage to it

Mechanical failure? Apa ni?

ZM Fong have you seen this before?

Edit: Nevermind, just googled it, found out it's either one of these things:
1. Airplane failure
2. Truck failure
3. Train failure (less unlikely)

Tried on Legion 5, can't use it as well
Tested with CHECKOUT then change to FRONTLINER still failed

Anyone else having the same issue as me? 8 laptops shipped on 28 January 2021 but only 1 of them has arrived, the balance 7 units still stuck at UPS China warehouse

Dah la Lenovo lambat, UPS pun lembab jugak

Below is just 1 of the parcel, there are 4 more, all of them still stuck in UPS China warehouse since 1 February

Sent them an email this morning, have to wait a while for them to reply I think

1. IdeaPad for 4K? Definite no
2. Not worth it to get the i7 as it's still a 4 core 8 thread processor just like the i5

Just ignore that 8 weeks ETA
For Legion Ryzen 5, usually it's shipped within 2 ~ 3 weeks, I got mine in 2 weeks
Because Illegear onsite warranty is crap

That's why
And they also only do that in KL & Selangor. If you're outside of Klang valley, you will have to courier the laptop back to them

Whereas Dell, HP & Lenovo premium onsite warranty covers everywhere you go, even if you're at kampung or overseas

What model did you order?

That's just an estimation
Most of us get our Legion 5 within 2 weeks. Including me

Illegear & Level51 can do customization too, but with some caveats
Level 51 does not offer onsite repairs at all. They only offer onsite pickup, which means you might still have to wait between 2 ~ 3 weeks for repairs to be done and for the laptop to be shipped back to you
Illegear only provide onsite repairs for KL & Selangor. If you travel to other states or other countries, you're screwed

That leaves you with Lenovo being the only one that can do customization with good onsite warranty support

I hate that too LOL. Asking us to do this and that when we already know what's the problem & just want them to send their technician over to fix it. Happens with Dell, Lenovo & HP

Kalau ada spare part, if not, then they only do onsite pickup

Biggest promo code right now: MASTERCARD. Managed to reduce the Legion 5 price to RM3.5K

This one:
Without all the accessories except the warranty upgrade

Ask Lenovo directly. They will be able to answer that question

So you want a customized unit with higher specs but still want it to be at RM3.5K?
