Any laptop help appreciated.

Hey, I've got a friend who's looking to buy a new laptop for work and general browsing.

They'll mainly be using for office (word, excel, etc), for internet browsing and maybe streaming some films.

Their work doesn't require to store lots of files, large videos or anything like that and they have a budget of about 800-900.
Does the below spec seem reasonable or can it be optimized?

Thanks for any help

For Office (word, excel, etc), Internet browsing and streaming some films I don't think you'll need an i7. If you swap to the i5 CPU you can afford a 1TB SSD and the Silver warranty...
