My dell xps 15 9550 recently died on me and I am looking for a new laptop. After having the dell 9550 for about a year I'd like something that is a little more light weight. I would also like something that would hold a charge longer which is why I'm ok with having integrated graphics and just a HD display (not 4k). I really (really) like the look of the new asus zenbook 3 deluxe and also the hp spectre x360. If you've had any experience with these laptops feel free to share! I will be using this laptop for college so mainly portability and battery life are things that I'm looking for. My price range is under $2000.

did you get it second hand if not you could probably get a replacement/money back, as for what  laptop I am unsure which one you should get, I don't know what you can get for that sorta money, that being said I believe ASUS at some point soonish (their timescale for it was "this summer") is releasing the first R7 1700 laptop
