Budget 2k plus

For office us ( slide show, daily Microsoft office, youtube)

Reliability, prefer 15inch. Currently looking at matebook d15. Waiting for shocking sales. Any alternative? Thank you

RM2k+ you won't get extra reliability

If you want 15 inch, there isn't much good options to choose from. Get the D15

Most laptops don't have good speakers anymore due to the unfortunate arms war on shaving as much z height as possible (which forces manufactures to use smaller speakers and removing things like subwoofers)

If you want laptops that have good speakers right now it's pretty much the realm of DTR laptops like the Clevo X170, or even old laptops like the legendary Dell L502X/Asus N55SF

3. i5, 16gb RAM, preferably with good enough GPU

No need sRGB screen.

No preference on battery life?

Low sRGB is fine. I will check the photos color on other computers after editing, if required.

So main requirement is lightweight and cheap (RM3k and below).

Acer Swift 3 SF314-42-R8A9 / R43G

Thanks bro, will look into it

Hi all, need a recommendation on laptop
1. Budget : 3.5k
2. Usage : Daily driver and Gaming :GTA, COD as such
3. screen : IPS screen
4. size: 13-14 inch

you'll be stuck with lower end GPU if you wanted 13/14 inch, which isn't ideal for the games you play (Zephyrus G14 is exception but it'll be way over your budget, also not avaialble yet)

Hello,
Please assist to provide recommendations for me:

1. Budget :
~RM2.5k

2. Usage :
Output to 1 external monitors/ hdmi TV, CAD, Excel, browsing web, trading platforms, short video editing (less than 10mins), no gaming. No travel needed, placed at home all time. Replace my current 5 years old desktop. Want to get laptop due to lesser cable n more neat on my desk.

3. Requirements:
Display size: no requirements
battery life : no requirements
weight etc : no requirements
Durability & reliability : can last minimum 4 years
Willing to wait up to 2 months.

Thank you!!!!

I see. how about go up to 15inch? but not too heavy

Premium business laptops usually have better durability+reliability but they don't come cheap, I would say you need at least RM3k for that. Can wait for Thinkpad T14 / X13 with Ryzen 4000
Preferred max weight in kg? Any preference on battery life?

Hi Guys, can please help recommend a laptop:
1. Budget : 4-5k
2. Usage : purely Adobe photoshop, illustrator and video editing.
3. screen : IPS, colour accurate.
4. size: 13-15 inch.
5. Battery: Long battery life, hopefully 7-8 hours under load if possible.

Not sure on this, but a good battery life is always welcomed. But then again you cant have them all, so Im fine either way.

Able to wait further or urgent purchase?
able to wait further or need the laptop now?

I can wait but roughly how long? If urgent what are my options? Thanks very much.

what is the release date? mean already out but malaysia not available yet? rm3000 price range can get?

I would say 1-3 months

Since there is no performance/gaming laptop with long battery life under RM5k, you have to go for Ultrabooks

Fine with 8GB RAM or prefer 16GB?
unfortunately i have no info on that

I prefer 16GB because doing quite a fair bit of Adobe illustrator, photoshop, video editing.
I saw the MSI Prestige 15 is also pretty good.

Hmm..what are the laptops I can look out for for the coming 3 months?

Thanks!
