Alright so I have a budget of £1200 max and I want a laptop that is:

Thin, inch maybe a tiny bit more. But preferably less

Powerful

Has a gpu of 1060 maybe 1050ti.

Has a good keyboard that is solid and clicky

13-15 inch screen.

1080p or higher.

Not second hand

No "gamer" aesthetic

 

Suggestions would be great. I do understand that there arnt many in this area but something is better than nothing.

Have you considered the Razer Blade? It's around your price range (did amazon lookups and converted dollars to pounds via google) and while it isn't the most discrete in the market, it doesn't scream GAMER.

Is getting a cheap work laptop and a midrange desktop not an option? Take it for someone who gamed in laptops for too long, desktops are just better in the long run.

As per google this seems to be about 50 punds over your limit, haven't been able to find anything else so far :(

Although I just noticed this is 4k and you wanted 1080p

For 'good keyboard' and aesthetic, you need to try out by yourself since it's a subjective thing

 

Here are some good options:

with 144Hz IPS, great cooling, good build quality

small battery, a bit thick

 

2. MSI GP63 8RE

with 120Hz TN, great cooling, good build quality

be aware of quality issues

 

3. HP Omen 15 dc0003na (1050TI)

with 144Hz IPS, good cooling and build quality, big 70Wh battery

 

4. HP Omen 15 dc0030na

good cooling and build quality, big 70Wh battery

low sRGB IPS, only 3GB VRAM

 

5. Lenovo Legion Y530 with 144Hz IPS

good cooling and OK-good build quality

 

6. CyberpowerPC Tracer III 15 VR / PCSpecialist Vyper (TongFang GI5CN5E/GJ5CN6E)

good cooling and build quality

low sRGB 60Hz IPS, small battery

 

7. PCSpecialist Recoil II 17 (TongFang GK5CN5Z/6Z)

good cooling and build quality. 2.4kg, ~2.6cm, thin bezel

small battery
