Sorry, but there was never a similar I5 for $300 during BF.

The 11th Gen WERE shipping during BF, but the deals were only on the 10th Gen.
Huge Generational Difference.

The SCREEN on this laptop is actually a quality screen in both NITS and Resolution.
The BF deals did not have this quality screen....

The BUILD Quality for the mid-tier laptops, this is a high-quality build with better chassis, keyboard, trackpad, etc.. etc....

The SSDs were smaller on bottom-tier....

And no....In General, there were not any long-standing deals for any i5s at $300. Perhaps a 5-minute deal, but those were the older i3s....Any i5 deal that was not OOS in under 5minutes for the i5 was closer to $350.

And if you are lucky to have the AMEX deal, then this is only $420....
Blowing away even BF deals if you have the AMEX deal.

This is the same laptop as in the below FP deal but now $15 cheaper. Refer to the below thread which can answer most of your questions for this Laptop.

No, it is not high at all and in fact one of the cheapest price. And What is that idiotic logic of paying over $500 for a 14 incher? You know, there are 14 incher costing $2000 as well. The Price of a Laptop is not just decided by the Screen size.

how do you tell which screen panel is used in this laptop (220 nits vs 300 nits)?
https://www.dell.com/support/manu...lang=en-us [dell.com]
If you click on the deal and look in the display section, it will tell you 300 nits.

Are you saying that in real life the keyboard is easier to read than it looks in the pic?

At night would be fine I'm sure, but my concern is in a brightly lit office. Seems to me that even with the backlight off, the white on silver renders the keyboard nearly invisible.
I brought this for my end users, 2 of them returned it because of white characters on white keyboard, they really hate it.

I bought this during the last FP deal, I like it. I added another 8gb Crucial memory stick, it's pretty easy to add. Just unscrew 6 tiny philips screws and GENTLY pry the bottom off. I accidentally broke one of the tabs but can't really tell once everything is back together.

It's only like that when the backlight is on during the day

The installed RAM is 8GB, 1x8GB, DDR4, 3200MHz. Dell sells two types of 8G for this laptop.
Dell Memory Upgrade - 8GB - 1RX8 DDR4 SODIMM 3200MHz- $97.99
and
Dell Memory Upgrade - 8GB - 1Rx16 DDR4 SODIMM 3200MHz- $52.9
Will the 1Rx16 be compatible with the 1x8?
It should be, but why is the 1RX8 so expensive?

I have this laptop from the last FP deal with $100 Amex deal. I had to get replacement as the touch pad was sticking. Also,I added 16GB memory.
What do you mean the touchpad was sticking?

The touchpad on my Dell from the last FP, is making a weird noise (like when you press cheap plastic) when I right click and also the right click does not feel smooth.

Only the right click and not the left click?

Only right click has a problem. Even my 8 year could tell that it felt weird and is "not nice".

Weird. Does the left click still make an audible sound? Mine makes a sound on both sides, but it's not a big deal to me because my mom mostly uses a separate mouse.

"Can the McAfee LiveSafe Consumer Subscription $37 be cancelled ? and still be able to post the transaction on 4/30 for Amex ? "

Are you saying that it's possible to call and get the price reduced by $37 by having them cancel the McAfee which is included in the deal?

Man... if this was touch... I'd be all over it. Thanks anyway OP!
Have been used to touch screen laptops since 2014 but having bought this, I dont think I am going to miss it. I like the fact that its not touch helps keep the gorgeous looking screen smudge free.
