This is good deal?
I already have a ryzen pc w dedicated gpu. Should i buy

Apart from been significantly cheaper than competitors (you can't find any other complete Picasso Ryzen 5 or Intel i5 laptops in sub RM1.5k range) and a good value, no real reason to get it unless youre in need of a budget laptop, LOL...
As many had warned, TN display really sucks in 2019. Its only for those that don't bother about image quality and just want something to be as cheap as possible.

I would upgrade the cpu to atleast ryzen 5, take the 4GB + 4GB ram option, upgrade the ssd to pcie nvme for RM10.
And atleast go for 1080p FHD screen, unfortunately this option is only avalaible with Ryzen 7 option, otherwise you just get 15.6" HD (1366x768) only.

Wow, that price. Really makes the price I paid for mine (RM1.6k before shopback) looks bad, LOL... Luckily I got 14% (RM200+) cashback pending and a free copy of Microsoft Office H&S, else I will be really butthurting right now, KEK.
BTW, Ryzen 5 model can pair with 4GB soldered RAM and FHD screen. Its only limitation is cannot select another 4GB memory, but that's not a big deal as youre better off saving the money and buy it yourself a 8GB stick outside for cheap. 4+8GB is much more serviceable than 4+4GB, especially for APU/iGPU models like this which don't have dedicated VRAM by themselves.
But DAT waiting time for 128GB NVME SSD upgrade though...
