Hi guys as the title suggests im looking for a laptop, my budget is 500$ and the laptop will be used for productivity only (excel, word, ecc).

 

has to be at least a 13 inch display with a decent battery and network capabilities (best would be wireless ac or even a swappable module). Any suggestion?

By "productivity" I assume you would need a number pad in which case the laptop would be around ~15-17"?

 

this person actually doesn't need a keypad and prefer the 13 inch format than the 15 or 17.

You should have told us you were looking for a laptop in italy. Prices in europe are wildly different, there is vat and such. Tell us how many euros you can spend.

That's a small budget for 13" laptops. HP 430 G1 is probably the only one that fits that budget, but it's not great. Vostro 5470 maybe, awful screen too. I have no clue. I myself just got an inspiron 11 3147 (yoga style) but it's 11,6 inch.
