So, it's time for me to replace my OLED X1 Carbon Yoga, with something a bit more powerful: 

 

 

 

Minimum Requirements:

 

Quad Core i7 Processor

 

16GB Memory

 

256GB SSD if other storage like SD Card is available, or 512GB if not. 

 

1440P minimum resolution (This would be my ideal as 4K uses more battery).

 

Good keyboard and touchpad.

 

 

 

Would like to have: 

 

 

 

Dedicated Graphics, ideally good enough to run something like the Witcher on Decent resolution and FPS. 

 

2-1 with Pen (no MS Surface). I know this likely precludes gaming suitable. 

 

 

 

So far my primary choice looks like the Razer Stealth 13 touch model. 

 

The LG Gram has a 14" screen which is attractive and is stupidly light (which I value) I am concerned about support in NZ though I am not sure razer are much better right?

 

 

 

Any other choices? In 2-1 the choices are considerable given every manufacturer has one. 

 

 

 

Cheers

I'd also consider a 15" device if I could find a lightweight model.

Nice spec, but not suitable weight wise, unfortunately. Really wouldn't consider anything over 1.5kg I don't think.

 

 

 

Also not touch!
