My immediate thought was a Surface Go, but I won't be doing that because (a) there's no fun in that for me, and (b) I've paid close to £50 for them in the past, but not actually £50.
Perhaps some kind of Chromebook - plenty under £50, and I've not played with a Chromebook, but for £50 I'm probably only getting 2GB RAM, 4GB tops, and it has to run a current/supported OS.
And the £50 has to include postage, which probably eats up 10% of the sum.
