My primary laptop is a Lenovo T495s. I'm a big fan because my requirements for a laptop aren't particularly demanding, but while a 5 year old Ryzen 7 is a bit aged, I'd hardly consider it underpowered, at least for my (and many others) needs. Laptops like this can easily be found in great condition and under $200. I spent a little more after a new nvme and maxing out ram.
