My brother has an ARM Chromebook, but I forget the specs.

There's also this:

Acer Aspire 1 ARM Laptop Has Nearly Complete Upstream Linux Support

A two-year old Qualcomm Snapdragon with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of
storage that can be bought refurbished for roughly $250.

And Darek Mihocka bought a Lenovo Yoga from Best Buy in 2018 for $700.

Not sure if that one uses Secure Boot (and presumably you aren't interested in modern Mac laptops which also use ARM64). Windows ARM64 and Snapdragon are still sold, but newer Lenovo Yogas seem to only use x64.
