If you want to buy used Macbook. But cheap one, just to have MacOS and use it for simple tasks. Lets say something between 2010 - 2015. Which one best option and budget friendly? 2012 i5 (7) models for example?

Don't buy older than 2017, it's no longer supported and really old/dated hardware.

General advice in the Mac space is don't buy an Intel Mac.

You can pick up M1 airs for as little as $749 new or $500 used. This will be supported until at least 2027 and be perfect for the needs you described.
