Laptop

I was thinking of getting new laptop as my current laptop is now 6 years old and small problem is starting to show, i was looking at YOGA710-14 with new kaby lake chip (i7-7500U) with 8GB RAM and 250GB storage and also NVIDIA GeForce 940MX for around $1360.02 as I buying this in China and prices is dramatically lower compare to Australia. I going overseas anyways so i could either buy in china or Australia i don't actually mind, the warranty i don't expect much as it only 1 year and I can fix smaller myself and i have relatives and friend there. I was just asking if there is other similar style of laptop (Light and similar spec) for around the same price that i should consider as well.

There might be other prices and other better deals in China/Australia, but at least here in Norway a configuration of the Lenovo IdeaPad 700 called "Lenovo IdeaPad 700-15 80RU00MPMX" is about 120$ cheaper, more storage and better performance (More cores and better GPU, but 0.3 GHz lower boost clock and 0.4 GHz lower base clock) however you cannot fold the screen.

That pretty decent but i have already powerful desktop at home, so the core doesn't really matter plus it hard drive, I don't think i can switch back to hard drive at OS drive. I pricing is similar in both Australia/China. Plus it only have 4GB ram, is the bit to heavier side. Thanks for the suggestion.

Oh sorry, here in Norway the configuration had a 256 GB SSD included and 8GB ram.
