    For CS, you probably will be programming so a 15 inch is better so you can still read without going blind using split screen
     
    What your location? Since you need import the LG Gram

    quad core, hyperthreading and 15W TDP. sounds like what you want. look for laptops with that chip. 
     
    seems about equal to last gen's 7700HQ, which was 45W TDP.

    i have kinda big hands too, and i use a 15" MacBook Pro. it's nice to have a place for my wrists. if you have the chance to use a 13" laptop for a little bit, maybe ask a friend or something, try to find out if you can have your hands and wrists in a comfortable position for typing on a 13"... if you can't just get a 15". 
     
    i can't really give you recommendations on specific laptops, because i'm not too familiar with them as well.
