Best laptop for around £500?

[Happyclappy20]

Need it for excel and organising photos.

Get a reconditioned one off Amazon for £100. My Dell looks new & is still great 2years later. All the Office stuff like Excel, PowerPoint etc already on it. Best bargain ever.

Do you have a link to the Amazon £200 laptop? I tried looking and couldn't find any Dell laptops for £200 with all the software packages on them. Thx

anything with 8 GB RAM

What aspects are important to you?

Weight?
Battery life?
Screen size?
Keyboard type?
Operating System?

More information would be useful to help give advice. :)

I've just bought this one for my mum: www.johnlewis.com/asus-chromebook-c302ca-intel-core-m3-4gb-ram-64gb-emmc-12-5-inch/p3177349 gets good reviews and is within your budget

Just got a refurbished Lenovo off Amazon for £270. Absolutely brilliant, solid state drive, fast processor, lots of memory. A bit apprehensive when buying it, but I've bought refurbs previously and been happy with them. You can get ones that were £750-£1000 new just a couple of years ago for £200-£300 now, which are still plenty powerful enough for average use.

I only ever buy laptops from private sellers on ebay, those with good rating over all and haven't had any issues in the last 4 years. Last one I got was Dell with rubbish battery which seller was honest about (I got a replacement one for £22 off Amazon). This cost me all in total £170 for Dell i7 2 GHz processor , 8 GB RAM, Win 10 Pro, N5110. It sits on my dining table, doesn't overheat, I can't complain
