best laptop for raw photo editing with Thunderbolt 3

[genobkk]

I am thinking about a new laptop.  I really prefer a desktop but find my iPad is not good with RAW files   I use Lightroom but it is annoying deleting files all the time. I have old 9.7 inch iPad Pro.   Since my vision is not so good I tend to like those detachable or foldable laptops I can get closer to read easily.   I am interested in Thunderbolt 3 so that I can attach a GPU and have the best of both worlds.  Any suggestions on a modest price unit?  Microsoft surface seem over priced. Thanks for ideas.

I use a 14" 4K Lenovo C930 I7 8th with 512SSD and 16GB RAM with Silkypix 9 Pro and spew out RAWs to JPEGs is a heartbeat.

I don't know. Ask them or take a look around.

I looked around not to many models in Thailand it seems, only the very expensive ones

You perhaps can decide if you want to take the chance of importing one or getting a friend to bring it over when they visit. 

Obviously not the most convenient method. But if that brings the price down to something reasonable...
