Please recommend a laptop under £500

As stated really. The laptop must have 8gb of memory, 1TB hard drive and a decent graphics card (for images, not gaming). I would ideally like a 17" screen but realise that 15.6" is going to be more realistic.

Oddly enough I was looking at one of these yesterday, but it was an ex display model about £50 cheaper than this and had obviously been on dosplay for some time.
Has this one got shared graphics or a dedicated graphics card, and does that make much difference?

If you were to look in Web User, you will find that each fortnight, they have a "best buy's" section. They also have a forum. https://www.web-user.co.uk

The images will look the same whatever graphics card is installed.

7 weeks until windows10 is released.

Medion (direct) have a 17" to your spec at £449. There is also a £10 off voucher available.


I'm on my second Medion and have been pleased with both. I damaged the first one, but this one (17") is fine and nearly 3 years old.

Well!!! in this amount you will buy laptop with all your required features. In my experience i suggest you Lenovo,Hp and dell laptops, long battery life, perfect for business use, daily use an gaming.

Have a look at https://www.dell.co.uk/outlet

Refurb (in my experience the refurbs are new) and scatch & dent (the odd small mark) laptops for decent savings.

Also dell have an account on ebay.

This comes back in stock every so often, but as you can imagine, it sells out pretty swiftly
