nice find, so far i really like this laptop, the only real downsides i have noticed so far is that the monitor isnt 1080p, also there are sparse reviews of it. do you think the screen resolution would be a problem?

this is listed as a gaming laptop, but would be great for your use, and it is very powerful, so it will last you a long time

My Cheap But Good Rig: I7-3770s, Intel Motherboard (actually made by intel), 16gb DDR3, Nvidia Gtx 1070, 250gb Samsung 850 EVO SSD, 750gb HDD, Evga 500 BR power supply

for battery life, depends on what you do. If just web browsing, typing, chat it should last 4hrs.
