I lightly edited your post to remove the unnecessary spacing, hope you don't mind.

What is your budget for the laptop?

I'd remove the Norton as its effectively useless, Windows Defender is perfectly fine for almost all home uses.

I'd consider going for at least Silver warranty and adding the dead pixel guarantee.

Any recommendations?

Everyone has a budget, whether it's £1,000 or £4,000. We could almost spec anything, but without some kind of parameter, it's impossible to get right.
