i am looking for a 14-16" screen and a 256ssd or bigger. i dont need a hdd.

it should be light, offer an ips display and make as low noise as possible. if it can do that i would like to play hearthstone and casually 1 day each season d3.

other than that id only use it for office, photoshop and netflix/amazon uhd streaming.

extras that would make me happy but not needed: changeable battery, 120hz, clean look no gaming shit that looks like im 12 and gay.

only thing i found till now is the dell xps 15 but its reviews sound not so good on amazon (bloating battery, bad quality, slow, broken after 1 year or less, etc.)

Do you have a budget in mind?
I personally changed out my XPS 15 9560(2017) for a Huawei Matebook X Pro (13.9") Lately. Best decision ever!

The new Asus Zenbook Pro should be pretty baller! ux580ge, the touchpad is a screen :D

no budget. i spend what is needed so i get the best outcome and quality. makes no sense to hold money back and buy a new one in a few months because im unhappy.

If you want a top performer the new MSI Stealth series is pretty darn sleek.

I would say
Gaming oriented: MSI GS65
Pro oriented: Asus Zenbook UX580
Pro oriented: Dell XPS 15 9570
Ultra portable oriented: Huawei Matebook X Pro
Ultra portable oriented: Dell XPS 9370 (no dGPU sadly)

The new razer stealth looks amazing. Haven't had much faith to Razer after having 3 shitty products from them. Neither read the reviews on this laptop. https://www.razer.com/eu-en/gaming-laptops/razer-blade-stealth?utm_campaign=WW-The%20New%20Razer%20Blade%20Stealth%202-H2%20Brand%20Keywords&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=EU-Systems%20-%20Laptop&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIwva_7paI3QIVi7rACh38gA3vEAAYASAAEgLgUfD_BwE

Yeah that 144hz IPS panel is amazing. And the design is subtle enough this time around.
I also used vinyl wrap on my new laptop.
