Computer Recommendations for Incoming Analyst

Incoming BB analyst and looking to purchase a laptop. Not a massive specs guy but wondering what some of the best laptops are for IB type work. Have heard the X1 seems to be “best” with L380, Dell, HP etc. Looking to spend max 700 and open to all suggestions. Thanks!

Could end up being the laptop I use for WFH setup so wouldn’t mind dropping extra if that’s the case. At the moment it would just be PE recruiting etc
