Want to upgrade from Compaq XP laptop (10 years old). The user is still quite satisfied with it, except that when opening multiple programs, it is laggy and fan noise too loud. (She is very hardcore, her phone is Redmi note non-4G, car is Kancil 20 years old)

Budget to upgrade: <RM2500
Expected improvement: not laggy, lighter weight, same 14" screen.

I suggest to her to get an Win10 laptop with i5, 8G RAM, 256GB SSD.
(her old laptop HDD is 320GB, and she's a little concern with 256GB SSD, because she knows that Win10 eats up much more space. She is okay to save movie files to a portable HDD)

Saw Lazada / Shopee selling Acer Swift 3 SF314 for <RM2300, which I think fulfill all her requirements.

Any better suggestions?

10 years Win XP laptop also satisfied (>2kg, TN low-res screen, small RAM), I think above issues not a problem.

Thanks for the suggestions.
