1. Budget : ~2.5
2. Usage : daily usage, watching movie, document stuff, maybe light gaming
3. Requirements (display size, battery life, weight etc) : no preferences other than being light and 14inch

Anyone can help recommend a reasonable laptop I can get ?

If you want more durability and reliability, premium business laptop is the best choice, however your budget is a bit low for that due to your requirements

May consider Thinkpad T580 with UHD panel, no dGPU. Keep in mind that 2.5 inch bay shares with M.2 2280, best option is to get HDD+M.2 2242 (WWAN slot)

You can either get HDD or M.2 2280 from the configuration site, if you want HDD+SSD you need to add M.2 2242 which can be hard to find

u mean, send it elsewhere for custom upgrade?
If i don't carry the laptop around, just leave it at home, can home-grade laptops give me years of service too?

I suggest doing the upgrade by yourself

You need to have luck on consumer grade laptop...some can last very long (even lower end models) while some can die within 1 year (even for higher end models)
