New laptop

Hello mates. I am looking to buy a new laptop. Its my first laptop so I pretty much don't know anything about. I want it to have the following

 

1. Price no more than 1500

2. At least 1080p screen (if I can find a 3840 X 2160 better)

3. I only play 2 games. World of Warcraft and Football Manager. So I don't really care about a super duper GPU. Just one tha plays these in high settings

4. I travel a lot. So I think it will be better not to buy a pure gaming laptop (heavier and bigger).

5. Battery wise I don't care for 10-12 hours battery. The machine will be mostly in power. I just need a good enough battery to hold me watching some tv shows and movies while in flight. 

 

Thank you for any answers

i would recommend xps series, they are thin and powerfull, but their battery life is a bit poor
