This kind u know i know can liao.

Imo china laptops have the best value as some specs they offer aren't available in sg market. You can also get major brand like Lenovo hp Asus. The main concern is usually the screen wherever got dead pixel

I bought LG from amazon US but I checked with local LG support to first confirm that the model I was buying has local warranty. The specs of the model I bought is not available locally.

Lazada selling at 3.1k.
Amazon 2.5k
What model? Can you put the link here. I'm also looking a laptop and don't mind from Amazon if cheap. Have bought 2 laptops few years ago and had no issues.
