Hi everyone.
I'm looking laptop for my father.


Budget :
Rm1000-2000

Usage :
- Mostly for Microsoft Word
- watching movies
- basic web browsing


Requirements :
- removable battery would be a plus
- reliable build
- will mostly use it as a desktop (e.g. plug into monitor, keyboard, mouse & speakers)
- occasionally will use as a laptop when going outstation/overseas

Thank you very much

removable battery is rare in laptops nowadays

if you want best reliability you might want to consider business grade laptops, unfortunately they aren't cheap

don't need business grade. something simple is fine. if can last 5 years then will be happy

currently using a old ass pc that is probably nearly 10 years old and takes literally 5 minutes to start up and opening new tabs on chrome feels like it takes a minute

the problem is there's less guarantee on lasting 5 years if you go for consumer grade

how long can i expect it to last if its consumer grade?
