So don't be surprised if this laptop phones home fairly often.
This is a good deals, but the CPU is part of the 3 series when AMD is on the 5 series... so this is not as fast as you may think. And realize this is an all plastic build... you need to baby this laptop. Don't get me wrong, our family laptop is a i5 3rd gen with 16GB or RAM and a 1TB SSD... I paid $350 for this laptop in the day... it works and stays on our kitchen table most of the time but the chassis is cracked in multiple places... I am not running to buy a new one yet. But keep in mind that you really need to baby the cheap laptops cause their build is not so great.
I am personally not brand loyal and would not hesitate getting this laptop. Having a cheap laptop does not mean more problems. There have been issues with every laptop manufacturer at one point.
The two cheapest deals right now are....
HP 15z-ef2000 Laptop: Ryzen 7 5700U, 15.6" IPS, 16GB DDR4, 256GB SSD $570 OR
HP 15z-ef2000 Laptop: 15.6" FHD IPS, Ryzen 5 5500U, 8GB DDR4, 256GB PCIe SSD, Win10H @ $449.99
The deal for $449.99 needs more RAM IMHO... so that will increase your price. Bottom line, Ryzen 7 5700U for $570.00 is not to bad.

I see that the new i3 quad cores actually bench mark much higher than something like this. I wish they would drop to this price range. I need a cheap throw away laptop to take to job sites that can run CAD programs.
s not 2in1. The number pad on the keyboard kills it tho. =/
