Hi, looking to get a new Windows laptop.

1. Budget: < RM3k (inclusive of Microsoft Office apps if possible e.g. Word, Excel, Powerpoint)

2. Usage: Mostly Excel & Powerpoint, internet browsing, watch videos and some light gaming i.e. mostly indie games on Steam (not planning to play Skyrim etc. on it)

3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc):
- Display: 13 - 15 inch is ok; don't need super HD display as will not be doing graphic design/photo editing work
- Audio: not important as will be using headphones/external speakers most of the time
- Battery life: > 6 hours general use if possible, but not so crucial as will be plugged in most of the time
- Weight: Not fussy on weight. Can be heavier if necessary.
- Hard drive: Preferably SSD (at least 256 GB)

Not looking to upgrade specs in future. Just need something that will run smoothly for Microsoft apps, browsing and light gaming. Thanks.

Need decent GPU? Mind low sRGB display and non-upgradeable RAM?

TBH there are many options available since you don't have much requirements

Max weight in kg? No preference on battery life?

Fine with 13 and 15 inch? Mind low sRGB display and non-upgradeable RAM? Need powerful CPU+GPU?

not too fussy about sRGB display and don't need upgreadeable RAM. happy to hear out any suggestions you have biggrin.gif
