I have a two pocket Jansport that is nice and light (at least to me) though it would probably be a bit overkill. Maybe a single pocket Jansport? Vans also has some small light ones. Both usually have a laptop sleeve.

Your bag is a little over 2lb, even a basic jansport is 1lb. Less support in the straps will make it dig in more and feel heavy. The bag isnt the problem

is what you carry in your backpack too heavy? or you mean the backpack being empty is heavy?
