1. Budget : 3000-5000 2. Usage : work, media, dota/csgo/apex 3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 15 above, 8-12 hours (i will most likely pull the battery out and plug it on power), lightweight if possible, maybe illegear brand if can

My 3 year old Onyx has 2 problems: 1. Upper slot 2400mhz Ram kong and can't boot, Illegear replaced it on the spot and provided a free upgrade to 2666mhz. 2. Webcam after 2 years kaput, they pickup, replaced it and deliver back to me in 3 days. Overall I am satisfied with their product and service provided.

QUOTE(Nameless Bot @ Jul 22 2021, 01:14 PM) Any decent discount code can share? Thank you. The one I used yesterday morning for purchase seems not working Di. There's a rm350 code for those who got vaccinated already, have not explored as the voucher I used worth more for the config I got. Can go to Lenovo page to explore.

Hi, looking for laptop for office type work (no need dgpu). Priority would be able to last long (build quality) as well as good battery life. 14-15 inch, budget RM3k. I saw from the ultrabook thread there's ideapad 5 and Acer swift 3, so something along those lines but whichever can possibly last the longest (for older person to use so don't want to have to replace it anytime soon)
