Best laptop under $2k?

1st I had a dell, which was a complete POS. I have an HP now, which is much better, but still glitchy (shuts off randomly, freezes up). Anyway, I want a reliable computer with a 13-15" high def screen, thin (<1"), relatively lightweight, at least 5 hours of battery life, and solid build quality. I use it for pretty much everything except gaming; photo/video editing, document drafting, watching videos, playing music, etc.

Obviously mac has several laptops that fit my criteria but I'm interested to know if any windows laptops would. Open to any brand except Dell

    You can get PLENTY of laptops that will do the tasks you are talking about for under $2k.

    MSI has a great system, i7 processor, 16GB mem, 128gb SSD.

    Leovo has been making some decent upscale laptops lately, and you can go on line and build your own hp or Razer Blade with whatever you want on it for around that price range.

    check out a sony or a toshiba and see if it has each and every thing you will choose. in my opinion there are various computers that are extra appropriate than a dell. I genuinely have discovered that dells look to run warm. each and every kind can fail so it relies upon on the form you're looking after it. maximum of those computers use the comparable areas...harddrives, memory, and motherboards. CPU sensible alot of human beings swear by utilising intel, yet I genuinely have by no ability had a situation with something from AMD. I genuinely have equipped many computers with AMD processors and that they run super. good success
