Advice needed on purchase of a laptop

[Carnage123]

so I'm looking to purchase a new laptop for mainly university work. this would include Microsoft word PowerPoint and mainly just browsing the web. many University students tend to choose MacBook pros but I wanted to see what else is available on the market.

For uni work and just basic stuff you dont need to spend no more then 250/300 quid.
