Hi guys, I'm thinking of:

1. Budget : 2k to 3k
2. Usage : Office work, social media, watching videos
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : Main requirement is fast and smooth multitasking on office tasks and heavy browser usage. Any display size, battery life and weight is fine. No rush on shipping.

I did some looking and so far thinking of this:
1. Inspiron 15 3000 3515 - RM2699

Would love to know if there are better options. Thank you so much!

don't get inspiron 3000

you prefer 15 inch?

prioritize best performance and cheapest price within budget,
prefer 15 inch but will take 14 inch if cheaper but same or better performance.
I'm curious about the model mentioned here too

Is the new Huawei Matebook D14 going at RM2,299 a good deal? Looking for something that can last for simple Microsoft Office use.

It's cheap and has 8gb ram but I don't know how to evaluate if it's good or not. clueless about the processors brand ram model etc.

1. Budget : 2.5k preferably (but could max to 2.7k)
2. Usage  : Online learning, ms office, social media, youtube, watching videos, non-gaming
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : 8GB RAM and upgradeable RAM.


I was aiming for Ryzen 5 5500U and eyeing LENOVO IDEAPAD 5 82LM006RMJ which uses a soldered RAM of 8GB but I am disappointed that it doesn't have an extra RAM slot for upgrade? So the max possible is 8GB only?

I also noticed that ZM Fong has removed this model from his recommended list.

I noticed you have similar requirements with mine, I will be following your posts.
An earlier post by others Fong gave this shopee link to IP5 but the seller has removed the 8GB ram specs model sad.gif If you have found any sellers have stock I appreciate it if you'd let me know too.
