Overpriced බන්..

Through the laptop offer for government university students, I bought an Acer E5-575G laptop for just Rs. 75,900. The in-built specifications are mentioned below.

• Intel Core i5 6200U 2.3 GHz
• NVIDIA GeForce 940MX with 2 GB Dedicated GDDR5 VRAM
• 1 TB HDD
• 4GB DDR4 SODIMM
• 15.6" Full HD Display
• Windows 10 Home Edition
• 3 Years Comprehensive Warranty + 2 Years Warranty for Repairs (Metropolitan)
• DVD Writer

And you know what I did later?

I replaced the existing DVD Writer with an HDD Caddy and then installed the 1 TB HDD inside the caddy (this will eliminate the possibility of using the DVD Writer. However, the DVD Writer can be used externally using an adapter)

Then I installed a brand new Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB SSD and 16 Gigs of RAM (Hyper X)

It cost me only about Rs. 29,500 for RAMs and SSD.

So my final specifications are,

• Intel Core i5 6200U 2.3 GHz
• NVIDIA GeForce 940MX with 2 GB Dedicated GDDR5 VRAM
• 1 TB HDD
• 250 GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD
• 2 x 8 GB DDR4 Hyper X 2133 MHz SODIMM (Altogether 16 GB)
• 15.6" Full HD Display
• Windows 10 Home Edition
• 3 Years Comprehensive Warranty + 2 Years Warranty for Repairs (Metropolitan)
  

The total cost was about Rs. 105,000/-

Not i7
Intel graphics?
Faster but HDD space enough for you?

 

[thilina91]

latitude,they are over priced

Well, yeah. And they are durable. I think that should be around 150K if there is a 1080p screen.
Try lenovo. You might get a better deal.

Yes, you actually have to first negotiate with a Metropolitan service center before making upgrades. I got this upgraded by the Kollupitiya branch of Metropolitan and they were really helpful in doing the upgrade.

I gave them the parts which I bought separately and they replaced them without any problem. However, if you're going to claim warranty for the laptop, you will have to visit the same place (for me, Kollupitiya branch) for claiming the warranty.

No idea. Check out the thinkpad series.
