    Is there any notebook 15.4 or less and less then 2000 dollars not including alienware that allows you to work off of the integrated graphics when on battery, and to switch to dedicated?

    the sony SZ 13.3in and if alenware makes one there might be a sager one also since they both use the same laptops and rebrand them.

    actually in this case it'll be their Uniwill (infact they tend to use Uniwill more than Clevo) as they've made those hybrid ones in the past

    This feature on the Uniwill ODM'd laptops will give you about 20-30 minutes more battery life when on the integrated video card.

    The problem is that when using the discrete video card you only get about 2 hours, and then with the integrated card you will get about 2:20 to 2:30.
