Hi guys,
Any suggestions base on this specification?
1. Budget # 2k - 2.5k if possible
2. Usage # internet multi-tab browsing # microsoft office # zoom, webex, google meet calls # a bit of torrenting for watching movies/series
3. Requirement (display size, battery life, weight etc) # around 14"-16" # decent battery life (8 hours I guess) # has a numpad # around 2kg or less # 8GB RAM # mainly for writing up docs/pdf # gaming is not important

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Aug 23 2021, 10:16 AM) Don't do heavy multi task then ok Actually which laptop model has this 2c4t i3 CPU? What would you consider as heavy multi task? If I were to up the budget to 2.7k, would I have better options?

Curious, how did you manage to get that price? I went to the Lenovo site and tried to configure the build to the image that you had and it came out as RM2.7k QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Aug 25 2021, 10:50 AM) i forgot about this, under RM2.5k
