14 Laptop Recommendations?

Hi everybody,

 

I need help choosing a new laptop and I'm honestly feeling overwhelmed with the choice, I will be upgrading from an xps 13 which broke recently but I was very happy with it. Portability was great, the only downside was that the 13-inches sometimes felt restricting so I think I am going to try a 14-inch this time

 

I don't have a lot of requirements

- 14 inches

- 16:10 aspect ratio

- Decent battery life

- 2000-3000 CAD (1500-2200 USD)

 

Gaming is a plus but not a requirement since I don't have high expectations performance-wise out of a 14-inch laptop anyway.

 

I am currently considering the XPS 14 and the Zephyrus G14 but I am super open to other options because I'm really not sure what's best

 

Thank you

Zephyrus G14 should be a good option then

RX6800S is slightly worse than an RTX 4060 (yes the naming is misleading)
