This is the kind of thing to compare it to.
15", double the RAM, better processor, better graphics card, no touchscreen, £150 cheaper
13", double the RAM, better processor, touchscreen, similar price
Battery life may not be quite as good if you're needing a full day without charging. (Although with USB C charging there are a fair few external battery packs out there now.)

Torn.
Looking at laptops and I'm just going around in circles it seems.
I want something that will happily carry out my photography duties, namely lighroom, capture one or alien skin. As well as blogging - something which I'm guessing all laptops are up to now a days. The other requirement is somewhat decent battery life.
I thought I had narrowed my choices down and found the huawei matebook. The i7 with 8gb ram and 512SSD for around £900.
Will I find a better suited laptop for the price?
Oh I'd just like to add I looked at the macbook air and quickly found I didn't think it was up to the job. Then the macbook pro is quite a jump.
