Guaranteed no dead or partially-lit pixels for first 180 days of purchasing. [Add RM99] is this option worth it?

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Aug 22 2020, 06:09 PM) mayb can use usb c converter for additional display output need 16GB RAM? yeah , need. -14" screen size -8GB x 2 RAM -at least 500GB SSD -Need at least 2 display out from laptop to external monitor (Total got 3 different screens : Laptop + Monitor 1 + Monitor 2) Initially I tot of want to buy desktop but find it quite unconvincing as sometimes need to folk out another $$$ to buy laptop for mobile use. My desktop was quoted 3k , so I tot of put in xtra budget on powerful laptop to serve the same function as desktop and could bring it with me whenever I go.

Beside this, the connectivity feature like USB slot, USB-C slot needs lots as I planning to plug in keyboard n mouse wireless adaptor via port This post has been edited by eric84cool: Aug 22 2020, 06:30 PM

Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 15" or larger, am ok with battery life (not too short will do), not much concen on weight.
Am weighting between a surface laptop 3 or MBP. Any other alternatives would be helpful!
