Hi, i'm looking for an ultraportable laptop.
Currently i'm eyeing on 2 models:
Asus UX305 core M
HP Envy 13

Like the design of hp envy more and the better performance it offers, but Asus is cheaper. However, the Asus is passive cooled, will it heat up easily thou?

I play light games like old maplestory, FTL, MINI Metro and maybe occasional CS1.6

I dont run intensive program, what i do most is websurfing, maybe 2 words and 2 powerpoints open at the same time. Basically that's it.

Or if you all have any other suggestion of laptops? I need laptops that are atmost 1.8kg, atleast 4 hours battery life for websurfing.

My budget is 2.8k, ya i know its not enough to get the HP envy 13, but that's just my optimal budget, can go higher.

cannot recommend the ux305 enough as a budget ultra portable. got mine a year ago and its still working fine. I bring it everywhere and do not have to worry about banging it about as the laptop is quite tough. light gaming is fine if you're not fussy about graphics. i play csgo and dota2 on low reso and low settings.
