I have picked out three laptops at different price points that would be suitable for the tasks listed above. (Listing is in highest to lowest pricing)


-------
1# HP business 15 - $518 may vary*

+ 15.5 inch 1366 x 768 display

+ Skylake Intel Core i5 6200u 2.3Ghz with boost to 2.8Ghz + hyperthreading (two cores/ four threads) - Modern processor and brilliant for the tasks required.

+ 8GB's DDR3

+ 256GB SSD - Brilliant for loading applications, fast boot and overall better performance, compared to a standard hard drive. Keep in mind it's only 256GB's

+ 1x USB 3.0 / 2x USB 2.0, Bluetooth, SD card reader, HDMI, VGA

-------
2# HP 15-ay013nr - $495 may vary*

Same specifications as the one above except for the listed differences:

+ Full HD screen 1920 x 1080 (15inch)

+ 128GB SSD instead of 256GB

Link:https/www.amazon.com/HP-15-ay013nr-Full-HD-Generation-Windows/dp/B01CGGOZOW/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1487076368&sr=1-1&refinements=p_n_operating_system_browse-bin%3A12035945011%7C12566246011%7C5945862011%7C5945861011%7C2232492011%7C562222011%7C2232496011%7C2232493011%7C2232495011%7C2232494011%7C5945864011%2Cp_36%3A35000-52000%2Cp_n_feature_twelve_browse-bin%3A9521908011

------
3# HP 15-ay191ms - $371 - Best hardware to price radio on the market, which I have recommended heavily to others on a tight budget.

+ 15.6 inch 1366 x 768 - 10 finger touch screen display

+ 7th Gen Intel i3-7100u 2.4Ghz + Hyperthreading (two cores/ four threads (Kaby Lake = Latest series of processors)

+ 8GB's DDR4 RAM (Latest RAM)

+ 1TB hard drive

+ CD/DVD optical drive

+ 1 USB 3.0, 2 USB 2.0, 1 802.11b/g/n, Multi-format SD Slot, Bluetooth

Link: https/www.amazon.com/HP-15-ay191ms-Touchscreen-Signature-Bluetooth/dp/B01MQOXCYY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1486823348&sr=8-1&keywords=HP+15-ay191ms


The last model(3#) comes equipped with the latest hardware available; compared to the others. However, the SSD bumps the prices on laptops. Furthermore, 1 TB hard drive will provide more than enough space to save documents, but will not deliver the same performance as the SSD would, definitely worth considering though.


Hope this helps!

SM
