If you're not planning to do some gaming, then look into
Asus Vivobook F510UA or HP Pavilion 15
I prefer the Asus because of the nicer screen, but the HP is cheaper.
You can just upgrade your laptop storage to SSD, and you will be fine.
However consider looking at these (if you can find these models in your country):
ASUS VivoBook 15 price: $530
HP Pavilion 15 price: $520
HP 15 price: $434
VivoBook F510QA price: $355

Thanks for your reply! So I'm looking at this model now, but when I try to use the "Hardware Devices" page on the Mint website it's difficult to tell what works and what doesn't:

Anyone using this with Mint 19? I did see that it does not have Nvidia for graphics.

Thanks.
Ah, you're right! It won't work as a dual-channel memory.
The HP Pavilion 15t does offer that possibility, but you'd also need to replace the HDD with an SSD. I doubt there's an available extra storage slot in there.

Why not a laptop?
