Anyone that has good recommendations for laptops?

 

I'm planning to upgrade my laptop to a new one.

Although I would be mainly using the new one for school work, I would like some power with it. 

Run some games with roughly 60 fps or if i limit straight 30 fps or better with lower settings. (I play FPS games mainly.)

I would also use it for editing clips for Film Making class I'm taking. Using Premiere Pro with little to no lag, and lesser rendering times. (it took 1 hour to render a 5 min short film on my current one.)

SSD for storage would be nice but HDD is fine. (More storage is good.)

Touchscreen would be good, especially when the touchpad is really bad or glitchy. (If it has the tent or tablet mode, like the Yoga of Lenovo, it would be great but not that needed.)

Around 6-8 hour battery life is kind of a must. (4-5 might be good but I would sacrifice performance to make it last a whole day. Which could be fine since there are alot of sockets to plug it in.)

Bluetooth and Wifi is a given. 

Ethernet, USB-Type C is not needed. (I use Wifi for the most part and we don't have many products that use USB-Type C here.)

Processor must have more than 2.00 GHz, which is most laptops now do have. (I had a i7-4510 on my old laptop and just running some few apps or just my desktop at times, it reaches it's maxed in the Task Manager / Performance Tab.)

As much as possible it must be portable or at least I can carry it on 1 arm or two with a Lego Robot. (I am programming robots for our varsity.)

The last thing that is a must, it must be available worldwide or for shipping. (I live in the Philippines. Sorry for those that are going to recommend stuff that has shipping in US or UK only.) (Also so that I have warrantee when it would break or something.)

 

My possible budget would be around $1000 to $1500.

Any links of online stores? Budget in your country's currency? Is touchscreen a must? Fine with 4-5 hrs battery life? Preferred max weight in kg?
