Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-556R with RAM upgrade, although performance is not the best, build quality is nothing special

hmm. what would you suggest? the battery isnt that much of a factor.

if you're fine with lower performance, here are the options <2kg:
Lenovo Legion Slim 7 customize or retail (model 82K80035MJ)
Level51 Slate 15X 2021
Lenovo Thinkbook 16p G2

if you can't wait 2-3 months, don't buy from lenovo site - even though the laptop might arrive earlier, still need to have some expectations

RM3.2k: Honor Magicbook Pro
RM3k: Lenovo Ideapad 5 15 81YQ00HAMJ (non upgradeable 8GB RAM, poorer display, not full metal build - Magicbook Pro more value buy)

Yeah, fine with iGPU, gaming laptop battery doesn't last that long and I believe newer iGPU can compete with 1050 at least, although not as good.

I forgot to mention if possible the storage I want m.2 2280 so I can at least reuse my ssd or get the data out of it, I saw on lenovo website they have 2242 option but not sure if the socket is 2280 or 2242 size.

Hi boss, saw that you quite recommend Honor Magicbook Pro (launch Oct 2020)

Seems like the specs are quite good even compare to the newly launched Honor Magicbook 15? Am I mistaken somewhere?

Going to ditch my desktop(1660 super GC with Ryzen 5 3600) for a laptop for gaming due to desktop prices now doesn't make sense at all plus once border open have to go back kampung a lot so can bring my lapfop

1. Budget rm6000-7000
2. Screen: doesn't matter 14 can 15.6 can because if I'm at home I'll plug it to my 24" monitor, plan to play 1080p only as of for the next 2 years
3. Battery life don't care because will plug in anyways
4. Usage: gaming, browsing, movies and light excel work

1. Budget : RM2k-RM2.5k (prefer around RM2k but I read that no decent models <RM2k which is so sad esp they don't last long cry.gif )

2. Usage : Normal browsing, youtube, facebook, instragram

3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 14", light-weight, battery life the longer the better maybe like 5 hours with normal browsing (if it's possible)

Last year I just purchase this Swift 3 (AMD Ryzen 5) at only RM2.5k, noticed price has increased to close to RM3k now? I thought logically price should be lower compared to last year?

prices have inflated due to a lot of reasons, welcome to 2021 - 2022 probably won't be any better

can wait 2-3 months for delivery?
