Laptop Recommendations

I'm looking to get a Laptop for potentially starting my own business. A lot of the work will be conducting meetings via either zoom or teams. I've been looking, but have no great knowledge of technology. Can anyone recommend one that is reliable, runs pretty fast? My budget will probably be no more than £600.

I wouldn't feel confident giving you advice on specific laptops, but if it's for business use then some/all of it can be claimed as a capital allowance if you're self-employed. I bought a laptop and a desktop that are both used for business and personal use, and from my understanding of the (admittedly vague) information available, I was able to claim back 50% of the value of each.

Thanks, that's something I did not know.

Lenovo and Dell are very good for laptops. Both have support assistant software too in case of driver/hardware issues.
