A used Thinkpad. Maybe even one for as low as two or three hundred Euros. Upgrade RAM, install an SSD (If not already present), and you've got a "good enough" machine.

T490 is no good: soldered-in things and no dual batteries.
T440 has a bad touchpad, but it can be replaced with the one from T450.
Get the s variant, e.g. T450s if you need it a bit thinner and lighter.
Get the FHD (or higher res) IPS variant, the low res TN panels are very bad.

Though if OP could afford a Macbook Pro before, he might want the W- or P-series instead.
I expect to use it for at least 2-3 more years, it looks literally like I took it out the box and it's two years old (I've dropped it a couple of times as well) just a phenomenal little machine.
Try Googling next time.
