I think regular laptop more suit you, here are some options with dGPU:
Acer Swift 3 SF314-54G-52L8 / 59WJ +RAM
Lenovo Yoga 520 81C80016MJ / 17MJ +RAM (1 slot only)
HP Pavilion 15-CS2010TX +RAM - high sRGB IPS according to NBC, small battery
HP Pavilion 15-CS0033TX +RAM+SSD - small battery
HP Pavilion 14-CE0082TX / CE0083TX +RAM - small battery

If you want gaming laptop, can consider Illegear Raven Lite with 100% sRGB (wait for sale)

Hai. can u recommend me a good laptop?

Budget: below RM3k
Size: below 12.5 in (if none of this category meet my budget, then 13 in oso can)
battery: 6 hrs or more.
Usage: My usage will not be heavy, i guess? Mostly typing in google docs and emailing, browsing with lots of tabs opened, youtubing, movieing, sometimes photoshopping, no gaming.
Display: It's not my priority. As long as not sakit mata, then good enough for me.
Lightweight: Yes, because i'm on the move a lot.

Thanks a lot. smile.gif)

What's your opinion on Acer Swift 3 SF314-54G-52L8 (https://www.techhypermart.com/notebooks/acer-swift-3-sf314-54g-52l8-8-w10-14-laptop-notebook-i5-8250u-4gb-128gb-1tb-nv-mx150-w10h?filter=863%2C1389%2C1450%2C3451)

This really fit my budget and requirements.

Also a good one, you get more portability and battery life but less CPU+GPU performance. Need to upgrade RAM

Probably can opt for 1070/1060 laptop. I think ZF can help better

1050Ti is pretty weak for ML . Your FYP is for undergrad i presume , if so 1050Ti is fine , you don't need ultra powerful GPU to do it...

I think the lightweight is more than enough cause I'm casually walking around with laptop in office while dock with charger all the time when at my desk.

Yeah it's for undergrad. Yup I don't plan to buy ultra powerful one, but 1070/1060 laptops are quite expensive isn't it ?
