My daughter is looking for a laptop, she wants to play Sims & Minecraft & Roblox etc. This one is around our budget. Would it run well and last a few years? Any advice much appreciated, thank you.

I would avoid.
Wait till black friday or ebay discount and purchase.
There was a good asus and msi gaming laptop for your budget a few weeks ago.
You can Google 'GTX 1650 laptop' and see what's available. Amazon is generally not a good place to find good deals on laptops. The Ebay 20% sales often give some good options. And as the other poster said, it's worth waiting to see what deals are available on black Friday.
There's lots of GTX 1650 laptops at a good price point posted on HUKD often too. You can use the search function here to see what has been available too. Worth checking daily.
The deals are expired now but you want something like these
Very helpful, thank you. I’ll keep my eye out
Wouldn't you know it. Theres a 15% off sale on ebay started today. This will fit your needs. Use code FESTIVE15 to take £60 off. Brings the total down to £519

Edit: if you don't mind spending a little more, this is probably a better all-round laptop for £540 after the discount code is applied

But either will do the trick. I would also recommend looking into covering whatever you do buy with accidental damage, unless you don't mind claiming on your home insurance in the event of an accident
Brilliant thank you. How do I install an operating system on that better one? Is it easy enough?
I didn't realise it has no operating system. It is fairly straightforward if you know what you are doing, and there are lots of YouTube tutorials. But you have to buy the Windows key, pack it on to a USB using another computer, then launch Windows from USB when you boot up the new laptop. It might be easier and roughly the same price to just buy this Lenovo with OS already installed. It's £543 after discount code
