None of those... Seriously...None. Of. Those.

The MacBook has so many reliability issues and overheating problems - not to mention the horrid T2 Chip that makes saving data in the eventual case of issues impossible. Avoid it.

 

The Surface Laptop 2 is glued together - basically impossible to clean or repair. It's not a good idea.

 

The Matebook is so underclocked and overpriced - it's not even funny.

 

Get a proper laptop such as the HP EliteBook 745 G5 or Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon.

display size between 13 to 15, I don't mind the sRGB and I'm leaning towards upgradeable RAM

Revit

$1500

I mostly care about weight

Minimum battery life 7 hours

Need dGPU? Would suggest business grade laptops
