My wishlisted Asus M712 laptop with Ryzen 7 5800U/5700U and an 17.3’’ screen has been recently back, whose mass is 2.3kg
But honestly how heavy is 2.3kg for such a laptop? Is it relatively lightweight for a king size screen laptop?

Seems about normal. My two-in-one with a 15-inch is 1.65 kg and my 17-inch with a GTX 1070 is 4.42 kg.

I consider it "light weight" as my 17" LCD screen already weights 4kg.

But people in the less famous forums were that, an 17.3" laptop is a "pain" on the constant moves, like lectures, studioes, and libraries if your 17.3" is going to be an university system, but they didn't notice the matter of the masses, for my example, my own wishlisted Asus M712 isn't that painful as they said, whose mass is just 2.3kg, with also external powers the gross mass is still under 3kg

Is this an ultra-thin? Looks like it is.
Depending on your needs, you might be able to find better performance in a slightly smaller, slightly thicker, but similarly heavy laptop with a more powerful mobile processor, like a 5800H, for a competitive price.

Hello, I’m currently searching for a new laptop for my study. One of the model that I’m really interested is Dell G7 and the weight is around 2.5kg. Is it suitable for student use in term of weight? Need to angkut ulang alik pergi library, kelas, group discussion etc. Or instead, should I get more lighter and potable laptop such as Asus Zenbook or Acer Swift?

Getting Started | My dell XPS 15, 1.8Kg also feel too heavy when travel, sometime think want to convert to XPS13 but I need high spec with good GPU. Still need to used XPS 15, 32GB RAM, 4GB GPU & 1TB SSD + 2TB HDD. I feel 2.5kg + adapter + other gadjets could be very heavy to carry everyday |

Getting Started | Unless you really need the specs, I would recommend going with something lightweight. I've been using 2.5kg laptop since 2012 because I wanted to game on it. If I could go back to 2012, I would choose something lighter with lower specs even if I can't game on it. |

Look at all my stars!! | When you travel as work, carrying even laptop considered light on review will feel heavy. Students move from one place to another in short distance that take only short time. I don't think slightly heavy will make it noticeable, except probably some students with money more like want to show social status. This is quite normal for young people and even older people |

| Of course the ideal light weight and ecstatic looks wise would be a Mac Book Air but the price will definitely burn a hole in your parents pocket. |

Laptop advisor | I'm a student - sometimes I also feel heavy bringing my Y530. Will suggest getting below 2kg [if you want gaming laptop then need to pay more] |

I'm getting too old for this shit | i'm not really a student but for work, i carry a 1.7kg HP laptop.. the laptop itself is not that heavy while carrying in a backpack,but factor in the adaptor, my water bottle, my foldable umbrella..i can feel the strain with the standard HP laptop backpack.however, i feel less strain with a better backpack like deuter gigantprobably because it's also a bit bigger thus the weight is better distributed. |
