RAM: 8gb or more

STORAGE: 256 gb or more

DISPLAY: at least 1080p full hd

SIZE: 13"-15" smaller is better since i plan to use the device in tablet mode a lot

OS: windows 10 ( cromeOS is useless to me)

how about the thinkpad X390 or X395 (AMD)? i have the X380 from school at it works decently, even for VERY light gaming. my only qualm is storage as i have 128GB, but that doesn't even seem to be an option for newer ones. That being said, i didn't bother checking German retailers for the price or even if it's available.

looks like it's way more in germany - like $500 more, so wonder if theres a better place to get it than notebooksbillinger.de. there is a $500 dollar sale at lenovo.com right now, but i suspect thats a "sale" and it's more of a clearance, as they are probably about to get new models.
p.s., if you look at that one and you really want it, i'd be down to get it and send it to you, as long as you cover all of the costs.

CPU: AMD 3600X

GPU: Nvidia 3070 (planned)

motherboard: MSI B500-A PRO

memory: G Skill Ripjaws V 2x8 GB 3600Mhz CL16

PSU: EVGA B3 650@

Case: NZXT H510

wireless network adapter: intel ax200

I second this, if OP is willing to not get a 2-in-1, these are fucking wonderful machines.

 

 

Maybe he could also look into a T-series since he said he wanted something larger.

mines a 2-in-1, i;'d think the next model year would be too. (two-in-one doesn't necessarily mean that the device detaches right? cause mine flips around so it can go into tablet mode.

if you can afford it you cant go wrong with M surface pro. Love mine, super quick, super light and probably one of the best 2 in 1's in my opinion. Detachable keyboard is awesome and is great for taking notes. I have a surface pro 7, and use it for onsite work and business travel all the time. One hint with surface, always buy the best you can afford because you cannot upgrade them.

 

Good luck in your search

Surface Pro. "in Tablet Mode", that beats every convertible. Especially, if you want to use the Pen for digital note taking.

A Convertible would be better, if you plan to use it mainly as a Notebook, with the ability to function tablet-ishy~. Weight would be WAY too much in Tablet mode. Trust me. Even 1,3 kg will be extremely annoying to hold.

 

Sometimes, there are Deals for 799 for the i5, 128gb/8gb Model: https://www.mydealz.de/deals/microsoft-surface-pro-7-123-zoll-2-in-1-tablet-intel-core-i5-8gb-ram-128gb-ssd-win-10-home-platin-grau-amazon-1588081

Sometimes even with a Type Cover included
