Dell Inspiron 17 5000 Series

Dell's Inspiron 17 5000 Series is an affordable general-purpose Windows laptop with a sharp screen, solid performance, and long battery life, according to PCMag's review. Although it's relatively cheap, its aluminium design makes it look more attractive than your typical sub-400 quid notebook. Try this one if you need a Windows laptop that offers better performance than the HP Stream but don't want to spend too much money. There's also a touchscreen model if you want to spend an extra 150 quid or so.
