I'd give the MSI Creator Z16 a look. Albeit, battery life is not amazing on [most] x86 platforms (compared to ARM platforms) though it should last notably longer on Linux.

I recently bought a Z16 and was extremely disappointed with it.

Constant BSOD, terrible bloatware. MSI drivers are required for basic laptop functionality, however installing them conflicts with NVIDIA...

The laptop does not charge over USB-C by design. Terrible waste of money. I wish I could get my money back.
