– an interestingly value for its relatively low price, as you can swap its HDD for TWO m.2 80mm SDD, but only one slot for RAM memory so better upgrade that to 8GB too . or you can add W80,000 more for similar spec but 1920×1080 pixel on 15UD560-GX3FK

over-all a tad of personal preference is in effect :
- for lighter devices for air travel, preferably below 1.4kg.
- 14 inch screen small enough for toting, yet the minimum for serious business work,
- with less pixel-per-screen size for easier text viewing,
- then much models are sought fro LG, for their impeccable screen and dependable support and repair .
- while HanSung is occasionally added for their much-affordable price on higher models, yet because of this : the design is much humble and support that you won’t call service //
