Good laptop but non-HD screen is a deal killer It's ridiculous to use non-HD screens at these times.

One of my biggest tech regrets was getting a 768p laptop for schoolwork -- word processing, research, collaborative work, etc. is cramped and lousy (especially on a 15"). Anything less than 1080p is simply not worth it in my opinion.

I will happily pay an extra $50 for FHD screen. Why they keep putting HD panel on a 15"??

I ordered one. I also ordered the Lenovo from Best Buy For $329 that has what looks like same specs but AMD Ryzen 3 instead of i3. I think I'm going to keep this one instead.
ditto... BB is not shipping until June 19. Will cancel BB once this gets picked up from Walmart.

Dual core, 720p display, 0.3 MP webcam is meh. Pass.

Probably TN panel too

I still recommend refurb motile 14 at eBay vipoutlet $300. 1080p IPS, 256GB, 8GB RAM, Ryzen 5 quad core 3500u. Windows 10.

Don't buy garbage people.
There is nothing but garbage or refurbs to buy. Rest is overpriced.

It is HD but not Full HD. It is higher than 720p. The deal breaker is windows S, if you are only using it for internet browsing it's fine. But you cannot download any program from outside of Microsoft store.
720p = .92MP
768P = 1.04MP
1080P = 2.07MP

768P is marginally better than 720P and nearly half the total pixels of 1080P. You aren't wrong by saying its higher than 720P but if you've seen a 720P display, you're not going to notice a difference with 768P.

True, my point is the screen is HD because HD is 720p. I agree it's not enough and my 4 years old Acer that I bought for 400$ has1080P display, so lower than 1080p on laptop should not offered in 2020 just like 4gb of ram

That I can definitely agree with. I can't believe they are still making ~720P panels these days.

If I connect this to the TV, can it play 1080-4k smoothly?

Thanks OP. I was going to get the one on BB with Ryzen but it sold out. This will actually be better. It's a "first laptop" for a 13yo so should be perfect.
