Are you the kind of person who goes to KFC specifically to eat Coleslaw or to go to Dominos specifically just to eat their spaghetti? If you are, then get the Honor laptop.
If you're not, then do yourself a favor by purchasing a laptop from a reputable laptop company such as Dell / HP / Lenovo.
For 3k, you're looking at 13 or 14" screen, i5 chip, 500gb ssd, 8gb of RAM, windows license and Iris igpu. For Ms OFFICE, just get the yearly subscription for RM3xx and share with 6 others. Dirt cheap.
3k there a couple of choices, but don't expect Valorant to be played at Ultra settings at unlimited FPS, you're probably looking at medium settings, no AA, no filtering and FPS hovering around 30 fps.
Or if you are willing to take the risk, get a used 2 to 3 year old gaming laptop, u can find them on Carousell... i'm sure those come with 3xxx series GPU ,16gb ram, i7 with good core/thread count and even a 1TB ssd.
Thanks for the comment.
The priority of the laptop is office work (excel/outlook/powerpoint) and I already bought the reputable laptop brand HP (KO) , Dell and Lenovo i'm still using and both give me problems as stated above.
Valorant (example) is just for casual game for kids, not that they going to play for competition etc. My current all 3 laptop (Acer, Dell and Lenovo) the kids still can play the game without any issue and all of them cost below 3k when I purchased.
For the new laptop. I'm seeking advice for the current brand/model that suitable and I do understand people don't mix gaming and work laptop together.
Honor Magicbook X16 2024 came in my mind because I notice those use the Honor Magicbook X14 and provide quit a good review and personal comment. If anyone that felt Honor is not up to the mark, can advice alternative?
