the SSD on this one is actualy a good brand and running 1,500/500 read/write comparing to the regular spinning HDD to the microcenter.
you have a free RAM slot to upgrade to 16GB in the future cost $60-$80
you have free 2.5" HDD slot to upgrade, SSDs are folling in price, 1TB reputable brand already been $150 will go lower in the future for sure

You made some good points. I read some people had different problems with this one. Blue screens, random hangs, battery issues. Now, what if the price goes down to $500 or less in a month? If I decide I want to buy it, should I wait a bit? I'm thinking it might get cheaper in a few weeks.

obviously next year might be $50-$100 cheaper with the new video cards comming out etc, in my opinion this is absolutely great value for brand new, and the quality components..
besides that, theres 3% cashback from polular sites to bring it $20 down aswell
It will also play VR games extremely well.
Don't wait hoping for a lower price, it probably isn't getting lower until next year when the 2019 model comes out and it will only be another $20-$40 less on sale at that point.
Can this be charged via a Typc C PD power bank?
If I'm never going to game/do anything that requires use of the NVIDIA card, am I just better off finding something else?

All gaming laptop will have crap battery life unless they weigh a lot. If you don't need a discreet video card then you probably wouldn't want this laptop.
