We need a new or extra laptop, eldest goes to secondary school this year. Wife and I use it for run of the mill, Internet, word, excel etc. Want to get one that will do for kids use, some games and whatever secondary school It throws at them. Looking at around £300-£350,happy to buy refurbished if that offers better value. Ideally a 15inch screen or bigger.
Thanks
I would consider a Chrome book firstly.
If not, go on build quality of a Windows machine. We have one HP that is flexible plastic and just feels like it won't last. The other HP was bought in a sale, box open, and is a MacBook pro copy, made out of a slab of aluminium and much, much better build quality of switches and keyboard.
I also bought all ours cheap, and added a £50 SSD to them (cheaper than buying one with SSD already installed by a long way). For £350-400 all ours have i3 (7th gen) or better with 8gb ram and SSD.
New (normal) laptops at that price are mostly all the same spec. and choice would come down to screen/keyboard for me (e.g. glossy vs matt screen, key layout and travel) so best just to go to Currys, John Lewis etc. and try some (once you short list a couple then just google for reviews on them).
