This is a ridiculously good price a laptop with these specs - this 15.6in Dreamfyre machine is loaded with a Ryzen 5 3500U chip, 16GB RAM, and 512GB SSD for just £269 at Amazon.
There's not much you can fault with this laptop, which sports the cheapest Ryzen processor, a decent amount of memory, and plenty of storage space.

For what you're getting here, the price of this laptop is extremely good, and ideally specced for running office apps, streaming movies, and general use. If I were being picky, I wish it had are HDMI and USB-C ports. Neither are deal-breakers for the low price.

I've always liked 14in laptops for student and business use - you still get plenty of screen for work and streaming while staying comfortably portable. This machine from HP is a good example with fair specs for general use.
