If you don't need crazy big RAM or crazy big CPU, and unless it's for games you probably don't, then go old.
Old Lenovo X1 Carbons are <1.4kg and perform really well. Gen 7 or so can be had for a few hundred bucks.
I just bought an MS Surface Pro 5 to run Linux and the hardware is delightful. Less thrilled with Ubuntu/Gnome in tablet mode, but as a laptop it's rather good. AU$200 it cost me.
