Looking for a good laptop that doesn’t look “gamery” but can game in a reasonably thin and light build.

I’m looking for a laptop than can game but doesn’t look gamery at all, no weird rgb stuff and a good solid stealthy design. And has a good battery life, dual storage option (SSD+HDD), has thunderbolt 3 and a good display.

I could find some with an MX150 Gpu’s or 1050Ti but I need some suggestions on what laptop meets my expectations.

I needed a laptop mostly for schoolwork, photo and video edits, and at least a good performance for gaming (even when it has an MX150)

Need some of your suggestions. Thanks!

Yes. How much are you looking to spend.

ASUS VivoBook Pro 15.6" Premium Thin and Light Home and Business Laptop PC (Intel 8th Gen i7-8750H 6-Core, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD + 128GB PCIe SSD, 15.6" FHD Anti-Glare (1920 x1080), NVIDIA GTX 1050, Win 10 Home)

Very good performance for the price of under 1500, but battery under 5 hours.

This is the question that most people as when wanting a portable gaming laptop. But the problem is that the more powerful cpu+gpu you have the less battery life you will have you will have to give up something.

The majority of gaming laptops use a i7 quad core. These typically are rated for 37 or 47 Watts (vs 15 Watts for the standard U dual cores) and cause a major reduction in battery life.

There's the Dell XPS 15 for $1,400. It weighs in at 4.4bls. so pretty good performance for that weight.

Take a look at Lenovo models.

They have some promising LEGION laptops, only downside are awful battery life and I find Lenovo’s keyboard design too...eh weird.

How do I reply to a thread? I have to open my mail in order to reply a thread and I don’t see any “reply to this thread” button..

Well, I agree about battery life but my PC charging every time I use.
