any gaming laptop won't have good battery life
zenbook prob wont have good battery life either as it has a dedicated gpu
bigger screen also means harder time fitting on coffee tables as well

never looked into LG as far as laptops but found this which looks nice

next choice way cheaper, 512gb memory vs. 1tb, less powerful CPU
