Pedestrian specs, but plenty useable and pretty decent for the price. Stuck with 8GB RAM, but the 512GB SSD is a nice plus at this price. Currently available for shipping, but ugh ... $19.85 shipping for me in IN. Save that by picking up in store if you can.

Unfortunately, Soldered LPDDR5 means it's NOT upgradable.
I don't see where anyone has been able to confirm it's a TN panel. Even if it is, this is a $250 budget laptop... they had to make some cuts. This would still be a great deal, even with a TN panel.
According to Lenovo's website, this model number corresponds to the 300 nit IPS panel 45% NTSC. If this is accurate, this is a pretty great deal if you're only doing productivity work. IPS, backlit KB, touchscreen, 11hr battery life, 15W 8-core 👍

The Bestbuy Asus Vivobook deal ends up being better IMO: https://slickdeals.net/f/17445054-asus-vivobook-14-14-fhd-i3-1215u-8gb-ddr4-128gb-ssd-230-free-store-pickup? plus free shipping

The Vivobook is only $230, has a faster CPU+iGPU, has upgradeable RAM, better Wifi card, slightly better connectivity, same screen quality, same weight, but it is only 128GB SSD (upgradeable, so ends up being more in the end for 512GB +$35)

Can I reply to literally everyone in this thread because everyone is wrong? Lol

https://slickdeals.net/share/android_app/fp/946338

This is the better deal

2 in 1, touch, much better CPU and SSD and RAM is upgradable

also, it's a budget laptop. Just because it's a budget laptop doesn't mean you should buy garbage. This $300 vivobook is amazing

for $30 at the same microcenter your picking the vivobook up from, you can install an additional 16Gb (24GB total) in five mins

Seeing Lenovo ThinkPad T480s 14" (Refurbished) for $299 at Microcenter with Intel Core i7 8650U (1.9GHz) Processor, 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD. Is that good?

This thing is a good deal. I was shopping for a $250 laptop recently and they usually only come with 256GB of storage and a 5000 series ryzen.

Yeah, I know. I never look at upgrading anyhow - I gets what I gets when I buy it, lol.

This I think is a mistake. Processors tend to be less of a limiting factor for most users than RAM and storage space. I like to take this sub $300 machines stuff at least 16GB and an SSD/m.2 in them and they fly for most people.
