hi, need help on choosing laptop

budget rm 5k max

- using it for words, powerpoint, excel etc. browisng and media player
- weight less than 1.2kg
- screen must be clear n bright nontouch. minimum bezel
- screen size 12 inch to 14 inch
- battery last all day work. (browsing, microsoft osffice etc)
- nice travel distance for keyboard.
- if possible, some securities like figerprint scanner or face recoginition etc
- good build laptop, not the flimsy one.
- mandatory port must have usb 3.0 (the normal usb port thing)
- bonus, chargeable using type c. if available only. so i can just use my hp charger to charge it.


lightweight, long lasting battery and screen brightness/clarity are really important for me.

Thinkpad X390 / X395
Latitude 7300
Latitude 5300

looking at the x395 and t495. lenovo is having huge discount on it. almost rm2000 discount at their website. just want to make sure nothing wrong with it.

It's decent, comparable with Intel ones. What kind of problem?
It's around 1.5kg FYI
Both are completely different type

Usage? Preferred max weight and min battery life?

Some gaming/office/netflix/programming

Max weight not to heavy (2 kg maybe) and battery doesnt matter for me. Lcd hmmm maybe 15+ ( yet i still choose to compare x1 14 inch )

Hello

Need help with recommendation

Budget RM2500 or above
Usage: Mainly video editing (some vlogs only)
Don't mind about the display.

Thanks

Around 2kg:
Illegear Onyx
Level51 Vapor 15 Pro (94Wh)

Prefer gaming laptop? Or regular/normal gaming will do?

No preferences on weight and battery life?

First time I heard Illegear product. Are they durable?

If you're talking about durability, business laptops (eg Thinkpad, Latitude, Elitebook) > consumer grade laptops. Though this is an entirely different story

Ahh i see. What if I ditch out gaming on my prefference? Any recomended for my budget? Generic brand

That depends on how heavy your workload....if it isn't that heavy then can consider lower spec business laptops (no need to spend 7.5k)

Thinkpad X1E G2 / P1 G2 don't have good cooling despite more powerful specs

hi ZM fong, about to finalise my build. between x395 and t495s

is it worth it to upgrade to ryzen 7pro?
ips display 300 nits vs 400 nits, does it have huge difference?
worth it to upgrade warranty for 3 yr onsite plus accidental drop? plus both warranty is rm 300
is amd radeon vega 8 graphics any good?


thx alot again for your advice, u r saving me alot of money

thank you 🙏

prefer regular/normal gaming

not too heavy

Will lenovo have similar or better promo during end of d year or black friday sales?
D price i saw with lenxcimb is jz too tempting...

Get R7 only if you need the slightly better iGPU

300 nits vs 400 nits in T495s or 300 nits X395 vs 400 nits T495s?

The warranty upgrade depends on you, personally I think 3 yr premier onsite is good enough

Vega 8 is about the performance of MX150 10W with dual channel RAM and higher power limit

No problem, you're welcome
You're welcome
Max weight in kg?

Max budget you can go? No preference on battery life?

Hi first of all tq in advance for any advise

My budget about 1.5k - 2k
Purpose: for internet surfing , video and share market update
Screen size : 13 inch
Weight : less than 1.5kg

Can accept 14 inch with thin bezel? No preference on battery life?
