TN is the lowest quality/worst looking panel type, its only really useful for e-sports monitors that need the lowest latency.

Anyways.

5500U is older Zen 2 architecture, soldered 4GB+4GB of ram is terrible as it will screw up dual channel if you upgrade the ram, and 256GB is pretty poor. Not a great deal imo.

This deal is better than target. And ryzen 5500u is significantly better than 11th gen i3. Heck I personally like it better than i5, but won't argue with anyone here who only looks at clockspeed.

But with that said, fyi the best laptop deal at Walmart last BF was HP with 4500u (think last year's version of 2021 5500u), with 512gb ssd (double this one), 8gb ram (same), IPS (better than this TN) for $379. That was a great deal and my son still loves it.

This is a decent deal (especially since I'm expecting this year's BF to be weaker) but just wanted to keep you aware. I'm also looking for another similar spec laptop and plan on holding for now... even though this is tempting.

Costco has similar one for $379 still. It has sold for as low as $299. $279 at Walmart on Nov 10 if you can snag one.

You still get 4GB of dual channel if you upgrade the ram and for non-gaming usage, you are not even going to notice. The real issue is the TN panel.

If screen size doesn't matter to you the Amazon one is better screen and slightly cheaper.
