I did not see this, but it seems about $100 from the last post here. With Amazon Prime, it is $469.89.

For some reason, Amex promotion only offers about $22 for this product.


Ryzen 5 3500U and 256 GB PCI-e SSD, sounds good for someone who needs a laptop at this price range.

RAM: "4 GB DDR4 2400MHz SDRAM Onboard memory, 1 x SO-DIMM socket for expansion, up to 12 GB SDRAM"
Therefore, 8GB=4GB (onboard) + 4GB (expandable)​

Battery:2 -Cell 37 Wh Battery

Interface
1 x COMBO audio jack
1 x Type-A USB 3.0 (USB 3.1 Gen 1)
1 x Type-C USB 3.0 (USB 3.1 Gen 1)
2 x USB 2.0 port(s)
1 x HDMI
1 x micro SD card​

This looks better than the Lenovo deal that is also on Amazon. For $20 more you get the number pad and thinner bezels. They are the same weight, an inch wider and essentially the same for all other dimensions.

Looks like a decent deal. I like the screen size over the 14 inch.

How does it compare overall to the Leno Flex deal?

Battery size is bummer here, this will not even last 4 hours for moderate usage.

Annoying that the reviews are for other models.

I think a lot of this is going to come down to whether or not you want a 14in screen and the ability to flip it into a tablet. Otherwise, if you want 15.6 this is the way to go. I personally can't go bigger than 14 inches for how I need to carry and travel with it. Plus I love the idea of switching to tablet mode.

Thanks. It's not for me, my father is looking for the best deal around $500 and just wants the fastest thing he can get lol. I don't think tablet mode matters but larger screen would certainly be better.

Yea this is pretty much as powerful as you're going to get for 500

I'd say no. Only 2 Vine users reviewed this, and of course both failed to disclose this info. Figures. They always pick the worst people to comment on things...

How would this laptop do for final fantasy xiv? Will it play on medium-high settings with 30-60 fps?

Max memory is 20 GB (4GB is non-removable).
