SG do not offer with X395 vs MY just offer with X395.
Again MY offer 45% with Citibanks Cc only.
SG offer only one day at National Day 9/9/19.
Selected model, the higher was on T495 at 54% off.

Just want to post this here to show you an apple to apple comparison of the discounts that lenovo offers. Doesn't mean you use the citibank 45% offer you get a better deal. For example today, there is WEEKEND code deal for 26% off. And if you compare with my earlier purchase in above post, you will see today is actually about rm50 cheaper.

Note: don't get me wrong, i am not saying the deal is bad, in fact i will only buy lenovo from now on cause price to value is too good compared to other companies. I am just saying be aware of the way Lenovo prices their laptops and the discounts they offer isn't always too good to be true. Its more that this is the price they intend to sell to you but make you belief that you are saving a lot of money.

I don't get it. These 2 quotations of t495 r from the same place? And 26% off is cheaper than 45% off?

If you want to have a laptop that last 4 years, thinkpad t490 or t590.

But cant do gaming.

Or get legion,.can also do gaming, cheaper yada yada.
Because 10% using laptop for productivity,  90% leisure.

(Thats my experience as an engineering grad )

I see, will look into T490 & T590 then , study-90%, social-5%, gaming-5%.

Its all depends on what software u use. But in general multitasking is bit better on laptop ryzen 3000 series compared to intel 8 gen whiskey lake. But on desktop, ryzen smokes intel on the same tier comparison.

If you not in a hurry, i suggest wait for next gen ryzen and see how it compares to the 10 gen intel.

But if want to buy now, the ryzen model is so much cheaper.

Not in the hurry, next Uni intake is Sept-2020. Yes, should buy then so that it can last at least 4 years.
