Hi all
I've bought a Chromebook last year it was cheap and served me well , since I'm personally a very light laptop user
Moving on 2020 I've decided to do more computing stuff to expand my skillsets as well as to try different fields.
I'm planning to use my laptop to do some simple video editing on adobe as well as to use it to open Forex charts ( MT4 ) , the chrome version is okay but lacks a lot of features that I wanted on the software version
Other than that .... I won't be using my laptop for much , no gaming , I don't need a big battery since I'll only use my laptop at home... some Youtube and that's all
My budget is somewhat flexible <RM2k would be great since I'll still be using my chromebook
MY thoughts are
1. Think pad Carbon Carbon X1 2016 Version [CORE I5-4300U TURBO BOOST 2.50GHz / 8GB DDR3 / 128GB SSD
RM1500
2. Dell E7470 2016 i5-6300U, 512GB SSD, 8GB RAM
RM1700
I don't mind it being 2nd hand with all the battery problems
but I'm thinking of getting a new one if it's really good
1. Zenbook Duo RM4700 ( A little stretch but I can see myself using the second screen )
2. Xiaomi Notebook 8TH i7 8550U i5 8250U 8GB 256SSD
RM2400
3. Huawei Matebook 13
RM2800
So what do you guys think ?
go with 2nd hand lappys ? or just get a new decent ones ?
