Sure, I would like to have a few options so that I can let my cousin to choose from them. Also for the magicbook, is it the one with r5-4600h you recommended?

low sRGB panel is fine, but for RAM, how long will 8GB sufficient for if using it for office work and watching online contents at the same time.

Alright. Then if upgradable ram, any other decent model within that price range?

Hi, recently I have decided to purchase the Lenovo Legion 5 but after further enquiring most suppliers do not have ready stock at the moment.

reliability which could last me for at least 4 - 5 years

Hi, i'm helping my aunt to research for her next laptop purchase. She has been using the Thinkpad T420 which should be around 10 years now.

As Dell is not likely to compete with the Thinkpad in terms of build, she'll most likely stick to Thinkpad. Budget is around 6k. I've tried to narrow down to Thinkpad T14 and P14s but figure the Quadro GPU is not necessary. Is there any potential alternative for Thinkpad T14? No wait time. At least 16GB RAM.

Also she is not convinced with the reliability of the AMD chip yet. Any advice i should let her know? Is the premium worth it for the Intel chip?

Thanks!

Thanks, for that, any promo code can be used to get some discount?

Hi guys,

Please recommend me a laptop mainly for zoom and microsoft office use. Would need a good front camera if possible. Also light and thin with a dedicated gc for light gaming ya. Budget 1.8k - 2.5k. Thanks.

Can we consider Lenovo Ideapad flex 5 is the best for daily use?

1. Budget: Strictly below RM5k. Around mid RM4k is good.

2. Usage: Work + casual game.

Game - more on strategy stuffs. Civ 6, Humankind if possible. Low graphic is okay, but as long not stressing the CPU and GPU much. Can run FIFA21 would be great (low setting is okay, as long FPS is acceptable).

3. Requirement: If possible, ultrabook. Love the lightweight of it and the light charger.
RAM is upgradable to at least 32GB.
Internal storage of 256GB NVME is okay, but 512GB would be nice. Extra slot to add extra SSD later would be be best.

MAGICBOOK PRO 5301-1SXX/1VPF R5-4600H 16GB D4 512GB

Hi sifu plz recommend me a reliable budget laptop. My Acer 3 yrs only already give so many problems. No Acer plz. 

1. Budget : <2k
2. Usage   : check email, update resume and some excel stuff. Watch online stream.
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : must be reliable not spoil in 3 yrs.

Hi sifu, can recommend me 2 in 1 tablet or laptop?
Budget 4k, can still go few hundreds higher.
Requirement: touch screen, pen, at least 4c8t, HDMI or USB-C display output. I guess with TPM 2 since Win 11 needs it.

Few post up someone mention Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5. Now is less than 4k, is this the best value 2 in 1? The ship time is more than 10 weeks though, usually it will really take this long?

I also saw Asus ZenBook Flip 13, OLED screen makes it tempting. But 8GB RAM only.

I found dell Inspiron 15 3000 is very cheap below 2k. Is it good and reliable?

1. Budget : MYR 4k - 5k
2. Usage  : primarily is a WHF setup with secondary have to go to the office / meet clients. mainly going to connect to a usb c hub to two 1080p monitors. when at home I don't need to run the laptop monitor as well, planning to set up so that closing the lid will still run the laptop. light gaming (indie games and old AAA games), as long as stable 60fps; for work some times have to open huge excel files; hobby level digital drawing but no need for very accurate screen since that's what my external monitor is for. sometimes have to go out and meet clients to open MS office stuff.
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : prefer 15" for easier time if I have to work away from my home setup. battery life should at least last half a work day. weight 2kg and under. willing to sacrifice a bit of performance for portability. would love to be able to charge via usb c.

EDIT: no problem waiting 1 month or more.

EDIT2: fine with older model, but planning to use laptop at least 3 years.

Currently only playing phasmophobia on an old inspiron, but used to play XCOM 2, and would like to play vermintide, civ 6, sekiro, battlefleet gothic. it's been a long time since I looked up any games though.

What if I ignore trying to be portable. What would your recommendation for a laptop with a low end discreet GPU either older generation or newer?

From my own research it seems some configuration of the Legion 5 might be suitable based on my other requirement.

Not good because of the brand or the model?

i think until December is still ok, I guess.

For my purpose of check email and watch YouTube , do excel also not good?

looking for laptop with keylit keyboard, good battery life, good display (ips) and dun have any thermal issue.. with graphic card if possible.. budget below 4k.. kindly recommend thnks

Ideapad Gaming 3 at RM 3.5k after voucher/discount - good buy?

I'll give consideration to it, since I might have missed a few.

Any recommendations for simple, portable laptop?

Priority is portability, thin and light
Probably 13/14"
No gaming, strictly for work travelling, MS Office/Excel
Decent battery life would be a bonus

Budget 2-3k?

Ya but other downside, cannot do installment other than HSBC card.
Is there any Lenovo physical store that can do installment up to 24 months? I prefer Shopee with 18 months option though

Rm200-210 per month is acceptable

Any recommendations for a normal gaming laptop around 4k+ range? No specific games playing, just need a decent gaming laptop.

I am not sure if I researched it correctly. Nvidia 3060 seems to beat 3050 by a lot.

15 inch

Willing to wait.

1. Budget :3k-3.5k
2. Usage  : programming, college assignment, light gaming(CSGO/Dota 2)
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 16gb RAM, if possible GPU gtx1650 or above
4. Waiting time: within 1 month

Thank you!

I have only Maybank. I chatted with Lenovo assistant on the website and they confirmed that they only accept HSBC

The CS on the webchat said cannot. Maybe can apply ezpay plus but that one I think got some charge or interest.

1. Budget :3k-4k
2. Usage  : 4k video premiere pro editing, light 1080p gaming (mid setting)
3. Requirements : not too heavy/bulky, easy to bring along when traveling, screen big enough to edit videos
4. Waiting time: within 1 month
Gonna try my luck and upgrade my portable system to be productive when I'm not home.

Budget: RM2,500-RM3,000
Waiting: 1 month

Thanks in advance.

Somehow I am doubtful about Acer in gaming laptops. I know the specs are good, but what about the built up? and got heating issue?

I am actually favoring Asus ROG Strix G15 CHN042T, can you comment about this? I was originally looking at CHN020T but it seems like everywhere out of stock and they came up with a new model CHN042T but older processer =/

Thanks ahead!

Would you recommend alternatives? It's okay if it's near 4k.
