I think this is the same machine that was posted for $50 less 2 months ago:

https://slickdeals.net/f/15206896-dell-inspiron-15-3000-laptop-with-tigerlake-intel-latest-11th-gen-cpu-303-or-282-53-with-paypal-discover-and-additional-cashback-site-fs?v=1&src=SiteSearch

Difference is that this one has 8GB instead of 4GB, which is probably close to the difference in price. That one didn't get a lot of love, although it seemed to be a decent price for what it was. With the 8GB of RAM there is less to hate about this model if you think the price discrepancy makes up for it.

I think if it came in at $400 but had at least a 256GB SSD it would probably be a solid deal, and at sub $400 still looks pretty good. It's hard to know what availability of laptops is going to be like any given week with all the supply chain issues, but I have a feeling there will be better options over the next couple of months moving into the holidays.

Any computer vendor spelling out "high definition" on their product these days is a sign to avoid buying from them. Basically, there is no selling point for their computer and had to make an attempt to mis-led the HD screen as high end.... Horrible marketing tactics.

It is FHD so not sure why they stated that. I agree it is confusing but Dell is name brand. I have had few problems with their Desktops.

It would be misleading if it was a 768P but it is a 1080P and few are higher than that.

Now the processor is only 2 cores I might jump on it if it had four.

Same spec as the Asus Vivobook i3 a couple of weeks ago on SD. There's now an i5 Vivobook version of that currently on SD.
