Which laptop is suitable?

I would like to buy a laptop. The price should be less than 500 euro if possible (new device). Which brands and models are recommended today? I would like to use it to solve schoolwork and use it until I graduate (tasks). What are the advantages and disadvantages? What should you pay attention to when buying? (Capacity or something)

I personally like the notebooks from Dell like they are, even if you buy them used, they are still very powerful and fast and far superior to the Macs in terms of build quality

Look here: https://www.alphatecc.de/buero-computer/notebooks-pcs/notebooks/130871/hp-notebook-255-g7 The price-performance ratio is very good for this equipment.
