Looking for new thin laptop for light gaming

Hi everybody,

 

I'm currently looking for a thin and light(15,6", around 2 cm height and 2kg) laptop. I try to find a laptop with good build quality, long Battery life and it should be capable of playing games like "live is strange 2" and "League of Legends". I am having a hard time finding a good allrounder, as my budget is around 1000€ and all the laptops I thought sound great (DELL XPS 15 or Gigabyte AERO 15) are too expensive. :(

So my preference: Thin&light>build quality>battery life>light gaming

I live in Germany btw.

 

I hope you guys have some ideas and can help me, thanks in advance!

Budget too low for the requirements

 

Min how many hours of battery life? Is it OK if the laptop has max 2.5cm height and below 2.5kg?

Any links of online stores?

Thanks for the fast replys,

the specs are just an approximate direction for what im looking for.

So I dont mind if it's a little over 2 kg or 2 cm.

I already looked at "Notebooksbilliger" and found this one:

https://www.notebooksbilliger.de/acer+spin+5+sp515+51gn+82ss+convertible+notebook/incrpc/lastseen

Is this one the best that i could get for around 1000€?

Edit: Battery life for 6h web browsing would be good.

I think it's pretty good for the price. However knowing Acer they might have cut some corners on the build quality (I.E. the bottom panel may be plastic). But as long as you take good care of it you should be good. I have owned a Acer laptop for 5 years and it didn't break (Well it did, but not to the point of it not being usable anymore :))

Please mention or quote me if you want a response. :)

The only thing I'm worry  is it has only a 54 Wh Battery and that the Ram can't be upgraded :(

I am looking for good quality as the backcover of my last laptop cracked just because of opening and closing it(well it was a plastic case) so as this one claims it has a Aluminium Unibody I hope that doesn't happen :D 

Edit: Sorry Wh0_Am_1 but the Asus is neither thin (5cm height , nor light 3,5kg) also it has a smaller Battery then the acer so nothing for me, but thanks anyway :)  

So is the Acer the way to go?

Cooling issue, low sRGB IPS, overall build quality isn't that great

Max 2.5 kg and 2.5 cm together but i would prefere If it hast less height, as the weight is not that import If i can easily put it in a bag :)

Oh a 14" display would also be ok, but IMO they are even harded to find with dedicated graphics and my budget

According to the system requirements, this is quite hard to run, so you might want something with 8300H+1050TI:

1. HP Omen 15 dc - 7-8hrs battery life with 70Wh battery and without GSYNC

15-dc0001ng - low sRGB IPS

15-dc0001ng with 1060 3GB - low sRGB IPS

 

2. Lenovo Legion Y530 - ~5hrs battery life

81FV00KTGE - DOS, 300nits 72%NTSC 60Hz IPS

81FV012GGE - low sRGB IPS

Thank you very much

I like the HP, although it is really on the max hight :D

I just have one additional (probably annoying) question,

is there any better option in the 1000-1100€ region (is it worth it)?

I really appreciate your help GeneXiS_X ?

Maybe some regular laptops with GTX graphics like Ideapad 720s 15, Yoga 720 15
