1. Budget: around rm4k
2. Usage: for Architectural Uni Student 3. Size: 14 or 15" 4. Must have the following: - Ryzen 7000 or 8000 series (due to battery life & decent iGPU) - Removable DIMMs - 2x SSD Slots - Ideally, not OLED screen so far I found Lenovo Thinkpad E14 Gen 6. Any other options? |

QUOTE(lol4291 @ May 23 2025, 12:50 AM) Hi, I would like purchase a lightweight laptop (under 1.3kg if possible). I would bring it around with me. Main purpose would be for media consumption and video/photo editing. No gaming etc. Budget is 3.5-4K. Not many small laptops can offer additional ssd slots.Requirements: - Any brands will do - Lightweight (under 1.3kg) - Sufficient RAM (16GB at least) - At least 256GB space [512GB if possible] - Additional slot for m.2 SSD or 2.5 SDD would be nice as well. - Good color accuracy - Good cooling - Good battery life - Prefer 13-14” screen Thank you.  Have a look at Lenovo Thinkbook 14 G7 AMD (customized with discount), it has 2 removable RAM slots, 2 removable 2280 SSD slots, an option for 100% sRGB screen, all metal build. Alternatively there are some Thinkpads but hard to find one with a good screen. Smaller battery capacity than Thinkbook. |

QUOTE(jhleo1 @ May 30 2025, 09:13 AM) Your one is customize model? I took the standard package because cheaper even I try to customize the exact same spec. Yes coz i want to max out the screen to 100% sRGB, 60wh battery, WiFi 6E and metal body. With onsite support, came out to be around m3.4k. When I bought it tbis month, they dont allow vouchers to be stacked.Added extra RAM & SSD myself (cheaper this way). jhleo1 liked this post

QUOTE(jhleo1 @ May 30 2025, 01:26 PM) RM3.4K meant you only took 1 year onsite support, window 11 home etc right? Customise far expensive than the one I choose if I want to choose 100% sRGB which close to RM4k. yes2. i skimped on SSD & only 16GB RAM, which both I added extras on my own. the 16" version is cheaper but i feel it is too big. Nowadays nobody wants to make 15" laptop lol. There is also china-imported model with 8845HS & 2.5K or 3K screen! jhleo1 liked this post
