Durable Laptop to Replace my Lenovo G470 - Budget P30k MAX

**_Cathy_** · September 23rd, 2018 02:13 PM

I'm looking to replace my almost 6 yr old Lenovo G470. I am very happy with this Laptop because it only cost me less than P30k when I purchased it in 2013. Prior to my Lenovo, I had a Toshiba which lasted me 8 yrs but cost me around 80k in 2005. I was advised by Tsikoteers to get the G470 instead of getting another Toshiba for the same amount and I am so glad I listened!

I think my laptop can still last 8 yrs but it's falling apart already and being held together by duct tape

I will only use the laptop for browsing, email, youtube and netflix. I don't store much data too, since 2013 I have less than 100gb of files.

Please recommend a durable laptop

TIA!

Dell inspiron line is good.

Ms. Cath, how big the screen you want it to be? Daming nasa 30k range sa villman... but mostly screen nila is 15.6 inches... hows that? Though iba-iba ang specs. May intel build at amd... i would go for intel though... i think corei3 is effecient enough for your needs...

320 is nice... disable that nvidia 940mx and battery lasts longer

Out of the box with the optimus drivers installed, the 940 mx should be off for most tasks naman ata.

Also what I like about the Lenovos is yung battery conservation... Keeps the battery from staying at 100% if you're plugging it in the whole time anyway.

Some dells have this feature din ata. Not sure which other manufacturer does.
