Used/refurb business laptops or new, Chinese branded models like Chuwi and JOI

Looking for laptop

RM2000+-

Intel CPU

NVIDIA MX

Upgradable RAM until 16gb

Full HD display

14 inch or smaller

Will be doing work and play DOTA 2

Don't mind about display colour or battery life

Cheaper better, first thing after buy laptop will upgrade to 16gb RAM and 256gb SSD

Thank you in advance

Budget including those upgrades?

If you want a decent MX150/MX250 model I'm afraid that RM2k is too low. Fine with Ryzen models?

Wrong thread?
Lenovo Thinkpad E495 (Ryzen): under RM3k

TBH it's quite difficult to find a decent 13/14 inch laptop with 16GB RAM upgradability (many have soldered RAM) and dGPU / Vega iGPU
Need high sRGB display? No preferences on weight and battery life?

hi, looking for a new/used laptop for my dad.

1. Budget : < 2k
2. Usage : Office work
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : Larger display better, touch screen is a bonus.
If it's better on smaller screen, I could get an external monitor instead.

Went with this with ram upgraded to 8Gb. Thanks!

1. Budget : 4-5K
2. Usage : Gaming / Commuting
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 15 inch at least, good battery life / length, medium to light weight, able to use credit card to pay 12-24 months.

1. Budget : 3k
2. Usage : Gaming, mostly dota 2 and PUBG / streaming / watch movies / internet browsing
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 14- 15 inch , decent battery life / dun care the weight, able to use credit card to pay 12-24 months, **must have SSD**

Any ideas?

my current laptop : Asus G55VW

What games do you play?
Min battery life in hours?
Max weight in kg?
Min how many hours of battery life? Fine with lower end GPU? (eg MX150/MX250)

2-3 hours battery life . . . ( dont mind if lower )

for GPU , i not sure if i can get GTX1050 with that 3k budget since i use to play 2 games only..
I prefer better GPU if can...
i interested in ASUS TUF for that budget but i saw from separate thread about the overheating issue....

Can get 1050Ti:
Commandos Glock 5, RM2.7k promo
Or Lenovo Legion Y530 81FV016UMJ for RM2.8k

Both options need SSD upgrade (optional 8GB RAM upgrade for dual channel)

woah Glock 5 seems like a good deal !!!
thanks bro.. never thought of this brand...

csgo, bdo, dota and so on.
