That Model has a quad core 15W TDP i7-10510U and a very low end MX330 Graphics card which are Ultrabook level hardware, suitable for day-to-day tasks like browsing, streaming media, documentation and may be some very basic photo and video editing. However, due to the lower spec hardware, it will give you better battery life. You can do some gaming but at very low settings for any modern games and probably in 720P.
This model on the other hand, has a 45W TDP 6 Core Core i7-10750H which you normally see in the gaming laptops and nearly 50% faster than those U series Processors. Similarly, the GTX 1650 Ti Max-Q is like over 50% to 100% more powerful than MX330.
Because of the combo of powerful CPU and GPU, you can do a lot of demanding tasks in this machine, like 4K Video Editing, rendering, Video Encoding, Huge Code Compilation etc. You can even do gaming at 108P with decent settings.
But it will have shorter battery life over the BestBuy version due to having much poweful components.
1. Upgrade to 10750H processor and 1650 Ti GPU
2. 135W charger (instead of 90W charger from Best Buy's)
3. 400nit screen (instead of 340nit from Best Buy)
4. Blue color
Cons:
1. People don't seem to like HP support if there is issues. Is that accurate?
2. This one would run hotter, and have lower battery life. Some reviews say you can throttle it on battery and it is equivalent. Anyone with that experience that can confirm? Based on reviews, it seems the HP.com laptop has a slightly upgraded vent layout to deal with heat dissipation.
3. This HP.com laptop won't ship until Dec 22nd.
4. I'd have to deal with returning the Best Buy laptop
Anyone with suggestions, thoughts, or feedback, I'd love to hear it.

Definitely worth $25 to get the 1650Ti
