1. What is your budget? 400-700+

11" to 12" inch laptops typically have low end CPUs an example is the HP Stream 11.

12.5" - 13.3" laptops should generally be close to or within your budget, but they only have integrated graphics. The only 13.3" laptops with integrated graphics that I know of are the Asus Zenbook UX303UB (nVidia 940m) from 2015 and Alienware 13 (GTX 960m, GTX 1060, GTX 1070). Both of which are above your budget.

That basically means if you are looking for a 13.3" laptop, then you need to settle integrated graphics. The HP Pavilion x360 13-u102na is an example for £649.95.
