Ultrabook

[morbidrabbit01]

Hi, I'm currently thinking of getting a ultrabook that is light portable and have decent battery life. It will be mainly used for working and maybe watching movies only. I'm thinking of getting the Samsung NP510R5E for $777 or the ASUS R303CA for $700. Budget up to $1k but best to keep it low as i will not be gaming. Please recommend and advise. Thanks.

Actually the 5460 is fine. Which one do you recommend i get? I will need Microsoft Office as well in the $1k budget and its okay if its a little over budget.

and how about the HP ENVY 4-1209TX? Its also around the same price range with better specs (i think)

stay away from ENVY 4 if you are the type who will rely on the recovery partition to do recovery in the event your windows crashed

Try this. Usually not a big fan of Acer, but read some decent reviews and the price is just too good to ignore. You can still get a SSD to upgrade for this price.

Also, technically this is not classified as an Ultrabook, since it is also missing a touch screen. But specs wise, it is very good.

The Acer laptop is kind of small for me as i might need to show clients certain documents. thanks but any other recommendations?
