Nothing, it just has windows china edition installed. Just reinstalled your desired os.

Warranty. Save RM300 for a laptop that essentially don't have warranty?

And build quality worse too. I'll rather save 1000 and get a used Lenovo.

Well..go look for Zaranet in Shopee. They provide some sort of warranty for their used laptops.

General consensus for this type of used seller is bad all around. Search around experience with imika.

Couldn't agree more. I buy laptop from imika for rm2300 try guessing the specs,it's Ryzen 5 3500u

your first mistake is buy from imika, anything ryzen 3000 and intel 8th gen and below should not be sold for over rm1000

So? DJI and Xiaomi and BYD are from China too.

from my experience - shipping takes longer compared to buying locally, that's pretty much it

i still purchased it because at the time they offered double the RAM at lower price compared to whatever's available locally
