I'm a web developer with a MacBook Air from years ago, aiming to switch to a Windows laptop for Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition. I'm looking for something around $700 with strong battery life, a good screen and trackpad, solid build quality, and the new Intel Xe graphics. Can you suggest a few options?

Did they just release them, and have they been seen?

Hi, yes they have those under the EVO platform. I just need the integrated Xe graphics you were referring to.

With all the chip shortages, it's unclear if you'll find something in the $700 range.

You would need to increase your budget to cover more expenses.

So you think you can achieve it with the I7, and then just add more RAM using a bigger SSD? But the HPs are really strong. Take a look at the HP laptops with touchscreens I got my son one for 700—it’s AMD-based and it’s amazing. He was amazed by how fast it runs.
