No. 5000 series has the open slot. LPDDR4X is soldered ram, and almost always not upgradable

Thanks, 8gb soldered ram is a deal breaker for me. Otherwise nice specs.

An XPS 9310 with similar spec and 1920x1200 resolution display, will cost you at least $1000. You'll get slightly better build quality, smaller foot print due to smaller screen size and brughter display which is better for outdoor visibility.
Apart from that, you are not missing anything but actually getting something over XPS.

It has higher resolution QHD 16:10 display and it is slightly bigger as well. the 330 nits brightness is enough for indoor use, even in brightly lit rooms.
You are getting Thunderbolt 4 port + Legacy USB-A Ports and HDMI 2.0 ports whereas XPS only gives you Thunderbolt 4 Type-C port and you need a hub for plugging your legacy accessories.
The build quality, while not XPS level, is very good, with full metal construct and it is very light weight as well.
Now, the price is almost half of a similarly configured XPS which is really great for this device and what it offers.

Me too. This is for my wife but she uses photoshop a lot and I've been advised 16gb memory is preferred. A 100% sRGB screen and 300 nits would be fantastic at this price otherwise.

How does this compare to the Inspiron 14 5402 with similar specs for $534? I just bought that yesterday

Too bad companies almost always use 8GB instead of 16GB.

The item actually says "onboard" for the RAM, so definitely soldered RAM.

No go for me. Otherwise, it'd be a great deal, especially with that QHD display!

The issue with soldered RAM, apart from the inability to upgrade it yourself, is if you have a memory issue after 1YR warranty, you're screwed.

With the open slot you could go up to 40 gigs right?

Not in the market at the moment, but looks like a good deal to me.

4% cash back available in a few places (e.g. hint Simply rhymes-with-rest Coupons).

I urge you and everyone else here to vote with your wallet. When the majority of consumers stop buying laptops with 8gb, 16gb will become the baseline. Spread the word.
