Top 3 picks
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5i
Why we picked this
Premium Pick: The most capable choice here for mobile gaming because its 16GB of memory improves smoothness in games and everyday multitasking, while the larger SSD provides useful space. It remains limited to integrated graphics, so it is best for esports, indie, and older games rather than modern AAA titles It is not a gaming laptop; no qualifying mobile-gaming laptop fits the stated budget in France.

MSI Modern 14
Why we picked this
Best Value: The least expensive option and suitable for lightweight games, browser-based gaming, and older titles. Its integrated graphics are not designed for demanding modern games, while the compact display and modest memory limit multitasking It is not a gaming laptop; no qualifying mobile-gaming laptop fits the stated budget in France.

Samsung Galaxy Book6
Why we picked this
Best Overall: This is the only additional sanctioned current Samsung model that can plausibly fit the strict €450 ceiling, but it is not a strong mobile-gaming laptop. Its integrated graphics are suitable for lightweight games and cloud gaming, while the larger display and SSD make it more practical than an entry-level Chromebook. A dedicated gaming laptop with a discrete GPU was not found within the stated budget, so performance expectations should remain modest.
