Laptop for relative

Go to solution Solved by 5x5,

All of those are horrible. Get a business laptop if you want durability. Lenovo ThinPad, Dell Vostro/Latitude, HP ProBook/EliteBook.

TL;DR
Need low cost but MUST be durable laptop that can crop photos, have windows pre-installed & can use word.
Also can video chat. IE built in webcam.
MUST BE NEW. Newegg, Amazon, etc USA stores.
NO QUICK RELEASE BATTERIES. they suck & always stop making connections.

 

 

Long:
I found this one, idk if it's good. Idk if 1366x768 is good or bad or if this pc is durable:

Any help is appreciated.

EDIT:
Newegg listed these 3 as potentially good choices:

Lenovo IdeaPad 330 Ryzen 5 2500u

We decided the reliability was worth it. We are going to get a good thinkpad with a lot of storage:
