Hi Sifus! Kindly help me to recommend a suitable laptop with the usage & requirements as below:

1. Budget: Maximum RM3499
2. Usage: Coding, multitasking, browsing, no gaming.
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc): 14" & less than 1.5kg, long battery life, DDR5 (SODIMM, not soldered) RAM is preferred.

I have been looking at Lenovo, Acer, Asus and also Dell but there's too many options at the moment and some are with U-series CPUs. Not sure if it's a good choice or the CPU speed would be slower later compared to the H/HS ones 🙏

hi, just to update i finally purchased asus vivobook 16 a1605z last week. after using voucher from shopee i get it slightly below rm1.9k. 16" screen is so good that i can have better view when opening my excel sheet. having fingerprint scanner is good too. that what i think significantly different than my previous laptop. running more than 20 tabs also smooth... so far happy with it

Hi, need some opinions on Snapdragon cpu. Any downsides of it? Currently deciding between both, or anyone have other suggestions. 16inch budget around 3k+/-

ASUS vivobook Intel Core Ultra 5 225H vs Snapdragon X X1-26-100.

If you need compatibility, then not ready for prime time yet. Printer, scanner, hardware driver issues...and some software won't work at all. But if you need the latest and greatest / flashiest, then perhaps.

do you have any other brand recommendations? I need reliability, no need flashiest. One I consider is Acer Aspire 5 which seems decent.

One thing I dislike is hinge problems on these new laptops.

Hi -

I’m planning to buy a laptop for my wife, she’ll be using this laptop just for casual browsing, help with our kids school task, netflix and do photobook. Budget is 3k.

Appreciate any recommendations - If the laptop has a display port through USB-C is better.

Hi, how is the battery life on it? Can it survive workday without briging charger?

Fellow samaritan, any good recommendation for gaming laptop as below requirement?
Why laptop? I travel alot for work.

Budget +- RM5k
1080p should be good enough as I already have 7800XT PC for 1440p.
Maybe RTX 4060 or 4070?
Mostly playing Monster Hunter, Marvel Rivals, COD, that required online and good/high fps

Not sure to pick MSI, Lenovo or Asus? or any other better brand?
