Office Laptop recommendations 700€ - 900€

I hope it's alright to post this question here. Please direct me to a more appropriate commuity if not.
Anyways, my sister's looking for a new laptop and I decided to lend my expertise. I've got a list of various requirements, but maybe some of them are too strict or I'm missing something.

Usage

  • Mostly office & webbrowser
  • Some light gaming (Minecraft, SWTOR, Drakensang)
  • Youtube playback in the background while gaming

Current laptop

HP Pavilion x360 - 14-ba070nz

Hard Requirements

Stuff that's absolutely required

  • Budget 700€ - 900€
  • 14" screen size
  • <1.6 kG weight
  • min. wifi 5 (802.11ac)
  • >250cd/m^2 display brightness
  • all-day battery life (>8h)
  • Windows 11 (I won't evangelize Linux to her)

Soft Requirements

Additional requirements I thought off, though I'm open to modifying those

  • >4 core CPU
  • 16GB RAM (Most laptops still come with 8GB. Is that ok for current year multitasking on Windows?)
  • >480GB storage (I'll have to check her current usage with her, maybe 256GB is fine?)
  • 2x USB-A ports
  • USB-C charging
  • HDMI/DP Port
  • internal GPU only (the games run okish on the old laptop already, so anything newer should also be better)

Some options

These are some options I found. I'd like to hear some thoughts/opinions on those. (links are to the UK site for english language, for prices I'm looking at the german site variant)

Thoughts, comments, experiences?
