Thanks for this informative guide mate.

Best laptop guide helped me with my home laptop.

Hi guys.. need your help to share which basic model is good for my kids daily zooming and google class usage. My budget is 2k and below with either AMD or Intel Core (not Celeron processors - if the still exist). I've been browsing around brands like Lenovo, HP and Dell but couldnt make up my mind. TIA.

iPad for RM1.5k ? if you need to multi-task, use an old phone (or RM300 Oppo etc) for the video calls and use the iPad as the "work station". much less distracting.

Hye all. Im looking for any good mobility laptop and good screen. For Microsoft Office / Email / Browsing Internet. Budget around Rm2K. New or used also okey. Im thinking of macbook but never use before. Afraid difficult to use due to different OS. Thanks !!!

below RM2k, and requirements are word processing / simple spread sheet I'll still recommend iPad + bluetooth keyboard or keyboard cover.

Not a Apple fanboy but their iPad line really hits the spot for being light and having long battery life. Another issue to consider is heat, on new laptops that cost ~RM2k or even RM3k I've not found one that dosen't heat up making it uncomfortable for anything longer than 15 minutes. Screens on these entry level laptops are also not as high def as the current iPad (or even iPads from 2012 which was already 2048 x 1536)

EDIT: for MacBook, they alll run BootCamp so you can still install Windows and enjoy the MacBook form factor.

Okey. I will consider that.

I am looking to buy Huawei Matebook 14 for normal use (no gaming). Any recommendation?

I'm looking for mid tier gaming laptop/desktop, budget around 4k. While searching around, i notice that similar spec, price of laptop vs cpu + monitor is not differ that much. I'm always under the impression that desktop should be cheaper than laptop under same spec, to compensate the mobility. Is that a wrong impression or did i miss reading between the lines on the technical spec of desktop? Thanks

Generally that's how it usually is. However, there will always be anomaly.
