For work reasons, I need to get a MacBook to continue working on a new task where I am, I found one for 500 dollars and delivering as payment my equipment a 2017 Dell is left at 300 dollars. The main use I will give it is merely for office and programming.

The specifications are as follows: Intel i7-8559U 16 GB RAM 512 SSD 13.3” and a resolution 2560x1600 Battery has 248 cycles

I'm open to recommendations

No. There are no Intel Macbooks worth buying today except for extremely niche edge cases. Spend a little more and get something running Apple Silicon. It will be faster, quieter, cooler, and will be supported longer (or even, just supported).
