Budget isn't set in stone, but less than £1k and ideally closer to £500. If that's reasonable?
Majority of time would be general browsing, odd bit of YouTube etc (no need to watch movies). Some basic word processing and spreadsheets - but nothing processor heavy (and no specialist programmes for work either).
Some gaming capabilities would be nice - strategy/simulator games ideally (given a console isn't ideal) - Cities: Skylines, HOI4, PCM(!)
Is a desktop the way to go instead?
@clipon thank you too!

What's your budget?
What do you want to do on the laptop? I.e. 90% browsing but 10% watching videos.
Regardless of budget, if you mention encoding videos or gaming you would always get more bang for buck with a desktop.
