    Screen : 14-15.6\" HD (Anti-glare/IPS if possible if not still ok)
    Others : Backlit keyboard (really want one sana meron po @ my budget range), Average - Good Sound system

  • dami ko naririnig na issue sa neo, not sure if isolated models lang.

    ayaw mo desktop sir?
  • On the go kasi ako im still a student studying in UPLB pero nakatira sa QC,,ay talaga sir?:/, sayang naman mukhang dun na lang ako sa 3 mamimili.
  • kung ako bibili ang pipiliin ko sa itsura asus ako o msi pero kung specs titingnan ko acer ako FHD na eh hehe.. pero kung di 1yr warranty yung acer naun dun nako sa dalawang natitira hirap na laki lalabas kong pera yun lang hehe...
  • ^ salamat sa opinion niyo sir.:)), yun nga rin yung concern ko sa Acer mukhang personal warranty lang siya,50+k kasi mall price talaga nun so wala siya sa price range ko.:)),,Mukhang ASUS Vs MSI na nga ito.:))
  • Go for msi
  • ^ napapagisip isipan ko na nga rin po chineck ko yung benchmarks online mukhang on par/slightly better pa yung i5 na nakasaksak sakanya kesa dun sa i7-4500u ng Asus and acer.:)),salamat po!:)
  • try to check sir the LENOVO Y410P. May users thread din kami. LENOVO Y410P users. 45k ko nakuha ng cashprice sa pcexpress. lots of freebies. :)

    4th generation Intel® Core™ i7-4700MQ (2.40GHz 1600MHz 6MB)
    Windows 8.1 64
    14.0\" HD+ Glossy LED Backlit with integrated camera (1600x900) although 1366x768 lang ata ung available sa pinas. at ganto yung akin.
    NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 750M 2gb
    4GB PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM 1600 MHz (I upgraded mine to 8gb for additional 1900)
    1TB 5400 RPM
    Red backlit keyboard

    I think the only downside of this laptop is 2013 model pa siya. Pero eto nlng talaga yung pasok na pasok sa budget ko so ito yung napili ko.

    kung kaya mo itaas yung budget mo, go for ASUS g550JK yan wasak na yan.
  • Yun nga sir eh kung mastretch ko lang for ROG wala ng problema.://, ay talaga po may 45k pala na y40 sige will check on that salamat po!:))
  • Go for ROG and please stay away from NEO
  • ^ thanks for the tip sir, kaso ang layo sa budget ko yung cheapest ROG eh.-_-
  • Post deleted #11774374
  • Search for laptop with 940MX GPU, pasok sa budget mo yan.
    I'll recommend Acer brand pag ganyan ang gpu kasi ddr5 ang sa Acer, sa ibang brand eh ddr3 lang.

    Bought mine for 28.5K bnew nung August lang,
    Acer E5 E14-475G-51SV
    1080p full HD IPS
    Intel i5 6th Gen
    Windows 10
    Interchangeable GPU(Intel HD 520 and Nvidia geforce 940MX)
    1TB HDD
    4GB ram

    may i3 variant ito, same specs except cpu at resolution at walang m2 ssd slot.
