Lenovo needs to stop with the soldered memory. And do they still use whitelists for upgradable components like SSD drives and WiFi cards? The last laptop I bought from that brand was a huge frustration and I swore never again.
One memory soldered to systemboard, one DDR4 SO-DIMM slot, dual-channel capable

So you can probably change the 8gb chip for a 16gb and end up with 20gb if you wanted. Vendors max memory is not usually a true limit. The soldered memory is 4gb.

Got this today.

the plus:
Display is sharp.
sound is loud

the negs:
mousepad sucks - cheap feel when you click
slightly heavier build for a ssd laptop
fan kicks off for the slightest of tasks
opening an explorer window took a second+, but on setting windows for optimal performance, started to open up instantaneously
sound while loud, feels slightly jarring

not too impressed, but im getting this as a gift for parents for regular use and for a $500 laptop seems to tick off a few basic things - ssd, intel i5+, 12+ ram, fingerprint reader, usb-c port, etc

Does the Costco credit card double the warranty from 2 to 4 years on this product?

In my opinion if they are going to solder in memory it should be 8 GB. 16 GB total is the sweet spot for most people.

Quote from jdixon :
More up-sides than just [1] lower cost -- shedding the DIMM slot also [2] lowers total unit weight; [3] soldered has smaller footprint on the mb than a DIMM slot, eliminating a DIMM slot part weight, plus reducing mb size and weight; and [4] eliminates a potential point of failure that the DIMM module-to-slot contacts represent. Finally, [5] there's always the tiniest current leak in an electrical circuit for any physical connect like module-to-slot contacts. (If we put on our supply-chain caps, we can see even more advantages.)

Man, they do have engineers at lenovo... they probably save $1 for that DIMM slot, about 15-20 grams in total weight. Reducing failure rates? How many laptops do you know that failed module-to-slot connection? Agree with you that they should include 2 slots and stay away from the soldered option. But at the same time SOME people that complain about soldered ram are probably trying to use a sub-$500 laptop for gaming. Cough up the extra $1000 and get a real gaming laptop!

Hi,

Not well versed with tech these days. Wondering if anyone could share some insight as to which would be a better deal:

https://slickdeals.net/f/15274828-asus-vivobook-15-f513-laptop-i3-1115g4-15-6-1080p-8gb-ddr4-256gb-ssd-380-w-sd-cashback-free-s-h?page=4#comments

Just looking for an everyday laptop to browse internet and vid conference. Thanks!

See it in person. Looks nice on the screen. In person, this laptop is a piece of plastic trash not even worth $500.
The internals might be decent but the plastic and build quality is as good as those chinese plastic tablets from aliexpress
