Or you could try learning to read rather than speculating....
Yes, but it doesn't respond.
Not sure why this deal is expired, still shows available for $329 on walmart.
Just received and setup mine. Info for everyone on the fence. See attached pictures for reference on the interior.
The display is 1080P. Cheap IPS display (if IPS at all), large decrease in brightness at 45 degree off center. Will be annoying if you do a lot of multi-people movie watching, but good enough for work and gaming. To get the full resolution effect, remember to Desktop -> Right Click -> Display Settings -> Change default scale of 125% to 100%
Only 2 Lenovo and 2 Mcafee applications to uninstall
Works fine with 4k external monitor as extended display at 4k resolution
Windows 10 Home comes activated (yes, some more expensive laptops doesn't include Windows license)
Fan runs constantly when under load (tested by doing 1 hour of windows updates), but it's not too annoying.
10 phillips screws hold the back plastic panel. Once removed, start from the display end and work around the edge, gently unsnapping and prying off the back cover.
3 phillips screws hold the black metal motherboard cage in. Once removed, gently pry off the black cage which will be held by clamps on all sides. I was able to remove the cage with my fingers by prying off one side and working around. Underneath the cage you will find 4 GB of replaceable RAM (other 4 GB is solder on) and the SSD.
If you removed the 3 black metal cage phillips screws already, then 2 more phillips screws (different size) hold the expandable storage cage in. If you haven't, then you will have to remove 2 + 2 phillips screws to remove the storage cage.

Mine was delivered this morning. Very nice laptop for $330, and a very slick deal. Thanks!
How is the battery life? If all the rest of the spec is right, then the laptop is a great deal. I know I'm nitpicking but 30whr battery might give us 3 hours of normal day-to-day use?

I just got it, so I can't comment on battery life. What I have read indicates battery life is poor. I plan to use it mostly plugged in, so that's ok with me.
If you spend $20 to upgrade the SSD, then you'll be at about $420. So is the extra $100 worth the difference of a smaller but not much lighter 14 inch laptop, 3500u CPU that's about 6-8% faster, backlit keyboard and touchscreen. For me, it's not really, but for others it might.
Can any one else confirm the resolution and IPS screen? Does it show 1080P under display settings? Because the description of the item on Walmart's website has mysteriously changed to HD from FHD. I ask cause walmart is notorious for incorrect specs.
Chatted with Walmart customer service and they also said it's a HD screen. Really confused about the resolution now. The description still says it's IPS but in my understanding only FHD screens on this laptop model are IPS.

I haven't opened mine but the sticker on the outside of the box states 15.6" FHD IPS, which does seem to indicate 1080p.
Yesterday 1080p was listed in huge print above the rest of the description. The item description no longer has 1080p. I really hope it IS 1080p/FHD.
It was sold out at some point between last night and this morning. Then it was all of a sudden back in stock this afternoon and the big print 1080p disappeared. Not sure what happened between then and now, but I'll get the thing tomorrow so I'll know for sure then.

I went with that. Specs seem around the same but get the 2-1, touchscreen, and backlit keyboard.
