Look into the lenovo t series if you can. Since you said you did not want the optical drive I believe you can stick another small battery in there for some extra battery life. As far as graphics, there is a dedicated graphics option, although I can't say if it fits what you need

Lenovo did away with the ultrabay battery on the ThinkPad T series. All Haswell generation ThinkPad T laptops (T440 / T540) have options for an IPS screen upgrade of either 1600x900 (HD+) or 1920x1080 (FHD or Full HD) resolution. The T540p will have an option for a 3K resolution IPS screen. All screens are matte / anti-glare which means they can be used outdoors.

All T series ThinkPads have an internal 3 cell battery and an external "rear"battery. That means the laptop does not need to be turned off to switch batteries. The T440 series has a 3 cell rear battery as standard and can be upgraded to a 6 cell battery. The T540p (not available for purchase yet, comes standard with a 6 cell battery or the optional 9 cell battery. That is in addition to the 3 cell internal battery I mentioned before.

I don't know if the Intel HD 4600 is good enough for web design since that is not my profession. The nVidia GT 730m is an available option.

It seems the ThinkPad T440 series is not yet available in Egypt. Therefore, you may want to consider the Ivy Bridge generation T430 and T530 series.

Thanks a lot. I will consider it 😀

I just want to clarify that all HASWELL generation ThinkPad T laptops have an internal 3-cell battery. This is called "Power Bridge". ThinkPad T series laptops using Ivy Bridge CPU (T430 / T530) only has the external battery.
