Right now the best cheap laptop I know of with usb c charging etc is the t480 and t580. A refurb or renew with an i5 and 16gb ram is around 300 or less all day long. They are cheap to buy, cheap to fix, modify, or replace and will run great now and for years to come.
With the internal and external batteries, they can have 2 at once, they can run all day easily and then some.
Get the 1080 screen tho.
For $500 or less they can be had with i7 and bigger ram for more powerful duties.
They just don't disappoint.
