I am looking for a laptop preferably Windows, to replace my dying Chromebook (the lid from the screen is starting to split open and the battery life is subpar).

I am thinking of buying an Acer Swift 1 with a Pentium Silver processor (similar performance to the 15W TDP i3 Processors), but if you have other ideas let me know.

Here are some preferable criteria

Decent battery life to get me through a day (I go to school and use my laptop at least 6 hours a day)
Performance good enough for web browsing
At least 64 GB of storage
but i don't know which laptop form these are best at solaptop(dot)com
I mainly use my computer for homework, watching videos occasionally, light programming, and editing 1080p AVCHD videos. My parents don't love me so my budget is under $300?
