QUOTE(afiq10 @ Dec 5 2021, 08:42 PM) Is it the same with Yoga Slim 7? same in terms of? QUOTE(revolnia @ Dec 5 2021, 11:30 PM) Sifu ZM Fong and MyProLife , thank you for your advice and reply for the past few weeks. Just bought Asus Zephyrus G14 AMD Ryzen 7 + RTX 3050 today. Damn its light (1.6kg) and sexy beast 🥳. My last laptop was BenQ Joybook S42 year 2008. After 13 years, this is my own personal laptop. HAHAHA so damn happy 🤣 . Btw, I do admit that Lenovo Legion 5 is far more superior and better pricing but I need portability and ringan laptop 😬 most importantly is to buy what u need
