Most 15 inch laptops aren't lightweight

Lenovo Thinkpad T480 (a bit over budget and overkill)
Lenovo Thinkpad L580
Lenovo Thinkpad E580
Acer Swift 3 15
Lenovo Ideapad 530s 15 (need RAM upgrade)
Lenovo Ideapad 320s 15 (need RAM upgrade)
Acer Aspire 6 (need RAM and SSD upgrades)
Xiaomi Mi Notebook Pro (warranty concern)

How about 14 inch laptops?

hey fong, preferably 8-10 hours with a maximum weight of <2kg!

Currently looking at lenovo and asus laptops for example:

ASUS ZenBook 13 UX331UN
ASUS VivoBook S15 S510UN
Ideapad 530s (15, Intel) Laptop

i5 processor
Ram ideally 8/16 (can just upgrade myself)
Graphics card, possible to have the latest gtx? although i'm doing less gaming, the option to game would be nice (Used to play bioshock infinite, crisis, dishonoured, hitman)
